Renaissance - Jean-Luc PONTY 

AURORA is a MASTERPIECE.

Every babe I brought home in the 70's heard this on my turntable. Thanks Jean-Luc as it helped me get lucky.

July 2024, and I still get goosebumps. So glad we were here at the same time to experience this. Thank you JLP🎻💃🏽🔥💜

Great immortal piece. Best of him

Let us stop and acknowledge the whole cast here. Patrice, Darryl, Tom, Norman. Thank you! Patrice's solo is especially moving for me.

Patrice Rushen best pianist ever!

So i was in Pittsburgh Pa. I guess late 80's early 90's. Ponty played at a tiny little bistro. ( saw Grace Jones) the next evening ..nevertheless. He called out to the crowd.." what do you want to hear next"...they knew not his music.jean luc said " really..come on" I was actually front row; after hearing the crickets, shouted out.." renaissance! Cosmic messenger! Passenger of the dark parts 2 and 3"!!. Mr.Ponty said " okay then...buy this man a drink".they did. Saw him again live with Return to Forever ..ih maybe 30 years later at Humphreys bye the bay in San Diego. It was beautiful again.Stanley Clarke asked we have a number of accomplished artists here on stage. ( i am paraphrasing) what do u want to hear? Again crickets... so i shout out " Peanut Butter!!" Because of course Lenny White was on the drums...long story short..they brought out Dweezil Zappa and went through a magnificent musical anthology JLP..my all time favorite.

Beautiful music!

I always think this is what heaven is! ❤

I danced in a modern jazz company back in the day, and this piece was choreographed by one of our incredibly talented choreographers! This music and that dance live in my mind and my body to this day!

This is one of the most beautiful compositions of music I have ever heard. Incredible....

I walked into a Record Store in the 70s and this was playing. I bought the album there and then. I imagine that happened often. This is a piece of music I can never get tired of listening to. The seamless interchange of violin and then guitar and then piano taking the lead is euphoric.

I had the honor and joy of seeing Jean Luc live in the 80s. Stunning.

My favorite song for my life’s journey. I listen to it whenever I want rejuvenation, which is of course , all the time!😇

One of the best violin jazz players of all time.

One of the best albums of all time. We are still out here in 2020 just blown away at the truth and beauty in this music. Influential on many levels. You can feel the spiritual nature of this music, much like the deep delta blues, it just resonates in the soul. Thank you for what you do.

I am privileged to have developed my music appreciation in large part to compositions like this. The individual parts are given equal and fair solos, yet come together as needed to maintain comfortable continuity.

Masterfully done

Such a great song!

LOVE this track It has moved my soul, & never ceases to lift me, the whole album is superb. Thank You

my favorite track....

Living in Kent Ohio the first time I heard this song fell in love right away

What a masterpiece !

Love with this LP the first time I listened to it and I still ❤️ it to this day

Tout simplement merveilleux!

Boston radio station WEEI/FM or WCOZ played this when it came it in 1976. So good to find it again. Listening on headphones!

Love it!!!

SUCH A BLENDING OF SPIRITUAL POWERS!

This is the most Zen song ever! Total trance inducing music. But the craziest thing about it is that the drummer plays the entire tune with nothing but his feet!

Jean Luc Ponty, an exceptional talent for this big blue marble to appreciate young and older folks...!!!🙏✨👌🎻🥰🐲❣️

Bizarre de re écouter ça. Tellement beau ce morceau.

Saw him at the Royal Oak theater....one of the very best concerts I ever witnessed

This is one of the most influential albums I have and love so much. I was inspired to pursue jazz flute at a time when it was not at all popular at Interlochen and in music conservatives.

Have it on vinyl and it's treasured. One of the most mind opening compositions ever Beautiful!

Je me souviens de cet album que j’avais acheté et que dire de cette pièce si accrochante. Je m’imaginais vous voir jouer. Quelle belle musique à mes oreilles de rêveur. C’est ça pour moi du Jean-Luc Ponty.

OMG, l heard this (The RTTF version) on Sirius today, and it took me back. I thought: "Hey, l owned this piece once!" I searched and searched and it's an album that got stolen from me, along with about 400 others...not a happy story, but at least l now know who it is, and l can own it again! So freakin' happy! Love Jean Luc-Ponty...❤️!

One of the greatest things that ever happened -TMon

Un des vos plus beaux morceaux !!!

As a otr truck driver late night riding music

Maravilloso

Thank you Sean luc ponty and the crew this is the Alpine Meadows theme song Winter and the sound of ice crystals in the air

Same here buddy.

This music is out WAY COOL

SUPREME

I have some vinil records of him.

this track is unreasonably good. I'm guessing a soul contract is involved. Soul Police are on the trail.

Love Jean Luc Ponty. His the father of David Garret. Or his inspiration at least!

Ponty plays with musicians of the same caliber as himself.

I still coagulate as if it was 45 years ago. God Damn!
