    Very fine documentary about an incredible musician. It's difficult to believe all that personal energy is lost to the world. I'd like to believe his essence is somewhere still creating wonderful sounds.

  • @illuminatingmanuscripts1800

    WOW!!! I must confess, I may be slightly bias as Paul Motian literally created my all time favorite record, Conception Vessel, as well as dozens of other favorites of mine from Keith Jarrett’s brilliant American trio to the amazing recordings with Bill Frisell and Joe Lovano….. but WOW!- What an amazing and uplifting documentary on such a unique and iconic artist. This is the best documentary I have seen in forever! Totally Blown Away!¡

    I met Paul after a show in Birmingham. He had the trio with Bill Frisell and Joe Lovano. I didn’t know what to expect as at the beginning of the show he sat with his kit, staring at the audience, wearing dark shades. After what felt like one or two mins, of this contemplation,he began a beautiful set.
    After, disassembling his kit, he chatted quietly. A gentleman.

    Just love watching this documentary and learning more about Paul Motion (and also how he got the name Motion), his love of music, the power of music. There are some incredible interviews with industry A-list musicians. This film is so great, not only for its storytelling, but for history sake. Well done Michael Kelly (editor/director) & Suzanne Hayes, co-producer.

    When I worked at the HMV on 72nd and Broadway in the mid 90s Paul came in with a bunch of posters under his arm and asked for a ladder so he could hang a bunch of his posters. We told him they had to be mounted on foam boards, so he left, had them mounted and came back to hang them.

In the same breath he tells the band that he expected more and is disappointed. Is that a friend making fun or do people really do this? Not even mentioning the fact that those people are like ...
