Steve Hass performing live and in the studio with some legendary artists as well as up and coming artists in all styles of music. Also featured are some educational videos.
Love this stuff ! Ann Marie and you three fellas had a great musical chemistry ! I first heard Ann Marie with Jonatha Brooke on the live in New York DVD ! Fell in love with her voice !! Is the Cherry music available for purchase somewhere ??
Discovered you on this Patti Austin track "A little bit of love", must have been live, that groove was absolutely killing it! In my view every song has its perfect drum match and that was you in that case! "Doo doo... doo doo"
I love this presentation! Wish I could have met Mrs.Staples in person. Incredible spiritual performance! Take me there Please! Thank you Hassbeat for sharing this with us here. SH AKA: Skywatcher
First of all, I’m gonna start this off with the fact that I’ve performed arrangements by this group and I’m just gonna preface that they are master class. No other vocal jazz groups even come close to their level of quality and talent. Kim is a wonderful soprano that has been in this group since the 80s. Her vocal improv was impressive and was really well done. She teaches others how to improv so I guarantee she qualified. Next up, this combo is incredible especially the pianist. He’s been with the Manhattan transfer and he’s done an incredible job. Now, just because a song is jazz doesn’t mean it has to “swing” and they were swinging when Igoe was on drums as well. Go listen to caravan or giant steps if you need proof. Swing isnt the only type of jazz. They’re mere perfection, period.
Hello Steve. My name is Joe Cangelosi. I love your playing. I want to ask you about the groove you play on Round Midnight on Mad 6. I love that groove. What is that called? Thanks. All the best .
Hi Joe, thank you! it's a hybrid groove with African 6/8 under tones. Songo, and just a blend of Salsa/African type grooves. That's a great question, check out my Patreon, it has tons of information with over 60 posts/lessons. And a new one every month. I can break the groove down for you there on video, I think the other students would benefit as well. Thanks again for reminding me of that recording!
@@HassbeatDrumChannel Cool!! I love that record and your drumming is amazing. I used to work at the Village Gate in the early 90s and I remember seeing you there. It could have been Visiones. But thanks again. Great to find your channel here.
@@HassbeatDrumChannel I miss that whole scene. The people and the musicians. The excitement of all the creativity brimming over the top back then. The city was buzzing.
@@animalosi yep, I thought it would last forever , but it didn't. I'm glad I moved when I did because that started happening in Los Angeles a few years ago. But now....pandemic. Let's see what's left after shutdowns.
Hey Steve Don’t know if you remember me but I took classes with you when you lived in Astoria with the vibe player from Manhattan Vibes. I took some lessons from Swiss Chris as well and I remember you went to school with him. Hope you’re doing well bro
I know your eyes in the morning sun I feel you touch me in the pouring rain And the moment that you wander far from me I want to feel you in my arms again And you come to me on a summer breeze Keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave And it's me you need to show How deep is your love, how deep is your love How deep is your love? I really mean to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down when they all should let us be We belong to you and me I believe in you You know the door to my very soul You're the light in my deepest, darkest hour You're my savior when I fall And you may not think I care for you When you know down inside that I really do And it's me you need to show How deep is your love, how deep is your love How deep is your love? I really mean to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down when they all should let us be We belong to you and me And you come to me on a summer breeze Keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave And it's me you need to show How deep is your love, how deep is your love How deep is your love? I really mean to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down when they all should let us be We belong to you and me How deep is your love, how deep is your love I really mean to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down when they all should let us be We belong to you and me How deep is your love, how deep is your love I really mean to learn 'Cause we're living in a world of fools Breaking us down when they all should let us be We belong to you and me
