Not my intention; this has happened to not only me before, but I first noticed it on someone else's review then, on one of mine so I reported it!
First, let me say that I realize I wrote this in a rather convoluted way, but if you bare with me hopeful it will make sense. I'm just speculating, when I imagine that it could be possible and thus not surprise me, if someone were to criticize this performance in such a way, although I've never heard any mention as such , as to be partial to Marsalis' New York appearances.
I was lucky enough to have seen all of his guest appearances on the West Coast. Now I've heard and seen the recordings in the cases of the Madison Square Garden and Nassau shows, with Branford quite a few times.
So, I believe I can say objectively even though I wasn't there for those, I almost never review shows that I didn't actually attend, Hint, Hint! I hesitated to make the following analogy, since it requires so much subjective explanation.
Believe it or not, I omitted some facts that lead me to this analogy in the first place. Mostly because it was short and because of Jerry's illness of some sort at the time! However, I did see on a website similar to this, which shall be remain nameless, partially because for reasons unknown, that critique, or set of critiques, has long since been removed , contradicting my assessment of the level of that "Dark Star".
Coming from someone possessing what I "normally", or should I say otherwise, would consider an "expert opinion", since apparently, this fellow had studied in detail, virtually every known recording of "Dark Star" and "The Other One", a scholarship to which, by the way, I don't claim membership!
In so reasoning, probably I suspect in a similar way, but never clarified as to how or why , as I do below, in referencing the same felling about "Eternity" here at this L. I figure that must be kind of like, since I just re-listened to the following the other day , the "Dark Star" they played in Miami in '89, which I didn't attend , where although they really went "outside" meaning, see below , Jerry sang very poorly.
I say all this, because even though I have heard this and do remember the show as probably the best with Branford, at least that I saw with him , I haven't heard it that many times; certainly not as many times as I have the New York shows, nor as recently even though I was there for this one!
Therefore, since I would like to remain credible given that, not only have I seen some bad or mediocre reviews recently, of what I remember to have enjoyed, although my enjoyment was primarily bolstered by some rarity or new tune etc. I'm trying to remain objective here, since far too many times have I found people raving how good a show was when I was quite certain of its' mediocrity. Yet, in light of the fact that in general, which I believe has more to do with my increasing lack of the wherewithal to obtain a recording shortly after a given show , as well as the frequency of how generic many of the shows were becoming, before the introduction of all, and I mean "all", of the then latest, and now obviously, the "last" set of new tunes.
Thus this results in my certainty regarding a given show's level of intensity; being much greater in reference to early or midway, rather than of the later ones during the years I saw them perform, '76 -' Thus tempering my confidence to the extent, that I should feel compelled to write all this.
Having at least once, wrote an over confident praise of a show, I hadn't heard in a very long time, due to the theft of my old recordings; and then later to realize I had exaggerated in reference to the performance, and in addition to besides that, the sound itself being disappointingly far worse than expected, ie.
What I mean is, indeed Branford was inspiring for most all of us! But just because I was there and so was he, doesn't remove my hesitation to simply claim it's greatness without exception, thus potentially overstating the truth, as I did at least once before.
Nevertheless, I'm more confident in my memory of "Eternity" greatness as being particularly "outside", if you will! An old jazz bebop expression, a term that gee, I haven't really used in a very long time ie. I don't say that lightly. Again, I guess Branford being a sax player, brings me back to saying that. So, rather than continue carrying on ad nauseam, with my efforts in conveying qualifications for my caution in applying adulation to reviewing this one, almost to the point of irrationally; perhaps it's more appropriate for me to reserve that for, by not reviewing at all , the several shows I attended in this late era.
For which, given that I had not soon there after, obtained a recording, and unlike this one, having a no direct clear cut legitimate reference, ie. Branford as guest , with which to, despite the frequency and total, of my having listened to this one, being few and far between, mitigate that infrequent number of hearings, by Branford Marsalis' presence!
But as I said to start with by implication in my title, probably and hopefully not, the only one; that thing with which mutually, I'm certain you'll are familiar with namely, that "inspiration moves me us brightly", even though this doesn't have a Terrapin in it and simply shut up, and give into saying : This is hot, get the download!
