I only saw Ahmed Jamal once. This was on the SS Norway Jazz Cruise. He played one concert in the cinema with his trio plus guest Othello Molyneaux who played steel drums.It was a great show and the only one he did on the ship. RIP
I know someone who saw him at Montreux in the early eighties.
I sadly never saw him live but at the Pershing has been in my collection on Vinyl, CD and now Spotify from day one and is the closest I ever achieved to hearing his exquisite playing live . Chamber Music of the New Jazz is always on at least once a week normally on a Sunday morning because it is Sunday morning. A very very sad loss but thankfully generations will be able to able to hear him for time in memoriam.
