Roland Kirk, McCoy Tyner, Stanley Clarke & more, from the Downbeat Magazine Awards circa 1975

 


A snippet that I believe I have shared the full concert of before.  This is a performance at the 1975 Downbeat Jazz Awards by Roland Kirk on saxophones, McCoy Tyner on acoustic piano, Chick Corea on Rhodes electric piano, Stanley Clarke on double bass, and I believe either Tony Williams or Lenny White on drums.  This is a fine and pure example of what Roland Kirk referred to as black classical music... nee, jazz.  This is a remarkable performance.
