    I was positively surprised when listened to the Circle Paris Concert album in August 1991. Finally having the opportunity to see a video register of this wonderful music :) Thank you for posting this great video!

      This is my first time listening to this… wow. This is truly music. It gives a Frank Zappa vibe but way more sophisticated and each notes, chords, scales, sound… are well-thought of.

    What a brilliant upload and performance. We are so lucky to be able to have and enjoy this material, and not as an audio file but as a video! I have spent hours upon hours, for many years, wondering how the band dressed and positioned themselves onstage. This footage has answered so many questions I have mentally accumulated over 100s of hours of intense listening to Circle.

    Braxton's clarinet is one of the most underrated horns in his arsenal. I wish he had spent more time with it on the later solo releases. The sound he gets out of the lower register, in particular, is delectable.

    To say not everyone has the ability to do this is an understatement, isn't it? Not being able to play "out" is a disappointment for me, even after decades of playing. I hold their ability to interact and communicate in this undefined language in high regard. They blew my mind back then (actually, more like '75 or '76 when I found them) and they still do.

    but this is not the actual recording that was issued on the ECM recording 2 record set. the original recording has one of my all time favorite jazz piano solo and my absolute favorite alto sex solo. it was an EXPLOSION. i think ECM has kept it off the internet because of copyright issues. they have every right, since ECM and Manfred Eicher were great! but its a shame.

      This is avant garde acoustic minimalist aggressive free bebop, and musically to me, it is not for kiddies, it is for all grown up now. My impression most people just don't "get" Anthony Braxton and to me he is the major influence here - he pushes boundaries and explores.

    I just discovered anthony braxton while hanging out on youtube. I then did some research on him. In my opinion, he is certainly the biggest crook in the history of jazz. It's totally amazing that he could have such a career in the music world and have such academic positions. I mean, what is going on with the listeners, the media and the jazz community that they want us to believe that this guy is a genius? Everything about him is a problem: his instrumental technique is close to zero, his music itself sounds like a beginner's band, his gibberish discourse about his music means absolutely nothing, but also his interviews in which he comes across as a pretentious old bigot. Please, retire and let the real artists play.

      Braxton is a tough one for me....on the one hand, I've never heard him play the sort of licks/textures that Liebman, Berg, Brecker, and Potter are known for....and, a lot of his playing has a stilted effect, which seems like he doesnt really have control over his legato. On the other, I heard one thing with him on alto, that was super-sonic in a way, SUPER growly, beyond anything IVE heard on alto, but I dont seek out alto sax music.

      Probably. Chick said that ride was his favorite cymbal and that he always tried to convince the drummers he played with between the late 60s and early 70s (Altschul, Airto and Haynes) to use it!
