ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
The concert given by the Max Roach Quintet at the Alhambra Theater (opening for the musical Free & Dizzy which was next on the bill) is presented in two parts. The second part, which should not be overlooked, is entirely devoted to the performance of the musicians, while the first part begins with an interview by the leader with the Franco-American journalist Sim Copans.

We are in 1960. Max Roach comes to Paris for the third time; his first visit was in 1949 with Charlie Parker and the second in 1953 with Lester Young within the JATP. It is barely necessary to sign-off on booking him at this date, Roach is already an essential actor and witness to the history of jazz.

Before introducing the musicians of his formation, he quickly goes back to the constitution of his first quintet with the late Clifford Brown, at the time of the release of the Daahoud album and the theme "Jordu." According to him, a quintet must combine all styles in one group. Musicians must seek to express something that is within themselves while blending into the collective. This assertion can be verified by listening to "As Long as you're living."
