Larry Coryell at Jazz Showcase in Chicago

I had the pleasure of seeing Larry Coryell with Paul Wertico last night at the jazz showcase. It was one of the best jazz guitar performances I have ever seen.

I didn't see any cameras when I was there but apparently someone was filming during his first set because I found this footage of the show on youtube this morning.

check out 'fairyland', 'barefoot boy', 'live at the village gate', 'the real great escape', 'lady coryell'....all inspired, no cliches

coryell, is not the guitarist he used to be, but even 'phoning it in' he is better than his contemporaries. the records i touted above are among the best jazz and rock records of all time. they are not fusion, however....they are inpired beyond belief...whatever he was smokin', it worked.
