Sometimes, we think that John Lurie is the Universe, while the rest of us are just living inside his soul; listening, looking, and trying to better appreciate and measure his genius sounds and amazing art.
it's so heartwarming to see the kind and wonderful soul of a human you appreciated for his music-art-etc, it makes you love him even more, feels like you're spiritually friends, if that's a thing anyway. Thank you John Lurie, you are a great influence!
Wonderful Stuff. Thanks so very much for sharing this. The Lounge Lizards rule and thirty years on, “The Voice of Chunk” is still one of the finest albums released in any genre or style. It’s a True Masterpiece and only gets better with each subsequent spin (and stream). His film and television scoring work, for which he’s been handsomely rewarded, is also fantastic. John Lurie Forever!
...love his acting performances, too... and his solo work. He’s also an incredibly fun storyteller and full of sharp, witty, and well-informed opinions. Did we mention his painting? No? F***ing Incredible. Television writer and director... He does it all so very well and with so much heart, soul, and infectious imagination. #EverythingIsMusic ....so... #AlwaysBeListening
"...it's more... spiritual - I don't know what that words means..." Yeah, John, I know exactly what you mean! Toast to all of us who have experienced that experience beyond words
This was wonderful. Thank you so much. Never "got him" back in his heydays but so glad I can appreciate him now and especially thanks to people like you who take the time to share these amazing intimate moments. Not sure if he was considered a genius or major force when this was his time but he may have deserved more recognition than he got.
He's so good with that sax and clarinet I played clarinet in high school for a while and could never get the hang of it my reeds always cracked I hated the spit trap thought it was gross. I bought myself a drum set instead I liked that better just loud banging.
+FunkyNoone It's called Big Heart, and the full video is available to watch on CZcams. Kinda funny that a band so good at chaotic jazz could come up with something so damn catchy.
Stranger Than Paradise and Fishing With John were my first real experiences with his work. Realized later I’d heard him as a Lounge Lizard and seem him in The Last Temptation of Christ without knowing.
I love to like John Laurie, but I don't. I also don't love to not like him. He'd be the kind of friend I care about, but who cares zero about me. He has an air of selfishness, self-centredness that is toxic for my psyche, yet I am gently fascinated by him. What is it about him? Anyone else has a similar vibe? I love all the characters he played with in Jim Jarmush's movies, and always liked them out of compassion for them to have to do with him. Anyways...
John Lurie, one of the universe's best...

No, John, hearing you playing saxophone for 45' or more is not boring. I could hear you for ever. You're so spiritual !
Thee soulful John Lurie! Love him! so sad he can no longer play and so grateful for the music he made! Marvin Pontiac too!
God I love him so much! I wish him so well in life, he's given us beautiful music and film roles
Thanks for posting this video. Listening to John Lurie speak and play is good for the soul.

That young drummer, Larry Wright, absolutely made it. Larry Wright (street drummer) - Wikipedia
So glad you posted this kids name…no longer a kid…I immediately wondered what became of him… John is brilliant and Larry Right was sublime…
"...it's more... spiritual - I don't know what that words means..." Yeah, John, I know exactly what you mean! Toast to all of us who have experienced that experience beyond words
Cheers!

Impressed by his sensitivity to both art and music

Oh what great memories! This is an essential piece of history. Thank you!
God bless John lurie for his narration voice on mobsters and his talent
This is great! I admire John Lurie! Incredible documentary!
"Dawn by Law" was my introduction to Jim Jarmusch, John Lurie and Tom Waits. Love this movie and these guys !!
This reminds me so much of my uncle’s playing from the 50s and 60s.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 nice look into JL, his thoughts and music.
So awesome!
I love this film.thank you very much
john lure, then and now, is a true artist and an inspiration
Absolutely.
This guy is so awesome
Incredible man

Great ! Thanks for posting !
John the modest genius

15:44 "For hygienic reasons, we kindly ask you to not try out the whistles"
This was great. Thanks for uploading
I feel like John Lurie would've done some cool stuff with Zappa
The great Brandon Ross on guitar.
and a nice shuffle too
great tone
Hope the miracle happened and the kids turned out fine
Really I joyed that. Felt like I got a real nice inside view.
He's so good with that sax and clarinet I played clarinet in high school for a while and could never get the hang of it my reeds always cracked I hated the spit trap thought it was gross. I bought myself a drum set instead I liked that better just loud banging.
SOPRANO SAX
qué genialada........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good drummer.
That kid can cook
Definitely. The rest of the band, too... The Lounge Lizards are Forever Cool and Rock It Out for Real each and every time.
2:30 sounds soooo nice
and what's the name of the first tune?
2:30 kinda sounds like Flutter (by John Lurie)
CnockCnock thank you
It's on the "Fishing with John" soundtrack.. Brilliant soundtrack! The track Ketchak is also on there, it's from another planet!
@@jrgenhvad9834 ...inspired by a planet called “Bali.”
unique, you know
Wonderfully Unique.
Genius
Just got home.
16:00 if you got a little horn play it

¿alguna manera de subtitularlo?
anyone know whatever came of that kid? His name... anything?!
Larry Wright
Check out this.... czcams.com/video/ePvvpioD_bI/video.html
Is he the one who narrates the mobsters series ??
Lástima que no esté subtitulado
11:54-12:34 yessss
No it"s totally not boaring for me to listen to your saxophone for 45 minutes or an hour, if that"s still a question.
Anyone knows the song at 9.30????
+FunkyNoone It's called Big Heart, and the full video is available to watch on CZcams. Kinda funny that a band so good at chaotic jazz could come up with something so damn catchy.
:....and we're proud of it, we're so proud of it, cause that's the kind of guys we are.
Tarantella!
💓🎶🔮🕊🙏💞
Anyone else had no idea who this guy is other than “painting with john”? 🙋🏻♂️
Stranger Than Paradise and Fishing With John were my first real experiences with his work. Realized later I’d heard him as a Lounge Lizard and seem him in The Last Temptation of Christ without knowing.
I hope you started listening to his music. Voice of chunk is one of the greatest albums.
🤦🏻♂️zoomers
3:00 and we outta here
