Dayum! They took down my nice little emmadet jazz video channel...copyright infringements. Oh well there you go. I'll put up a little something here from time to time. And I'll try to stay clear of those goddamn copyright claims. Gimme a gig or, better still, invite me to a reckless party at emmadet@gmail.com. Cheers everyone
Joe got what a lot of the younger guys today dont get. Music has to breath its not all about playing a 100 miles an hour. Joe was a True Master and one of the Very Best Ever.
i saw Joe Pass in a popular jazz club in 1986. He was awesome! He talked to the crowd of his usage of bar chords and other was he plays. really generous of him for guitar players or not. I love how he just knows where his hands are going to spots without. Looking .Always knowing whats going on. Just in touch with that instrument great!
Brilliant guitarist. If I can ever afford another guitar, I may get a Tele (because they're really cool and sound nice. Unfortunately, I don't think it will make me play any better, lol. Nor would chewing gum.)
Ah, a Tele with a humbucker in the neck position, the perfect jazz machine although I've heard a normal single coil Tele and struts doing the same thing.
You know this is really an amazing piece of work! You managed to incorporate the chords, bass line and soloing all in one! A tremendous feat playing any of Allan’s music. Thanks for sharing!
Attila did not merely help define the roles of the electric guitar in the Jazz genre -- he raised the bar of excellence considerably beyond most of what we hear today.
My favourite Canadian guitar jazz trio, and I suspect it will always be that. Ed is the coolest cat, chewing his gum filling tge air with notes you don’t ever expect. Thanks Ed, RIP.👍🏻😎🎶
By effortlessly resorting to a wide palette of guitar techniques and chordal vocabulary, you play this complex piece with a very natural flow. Plus, your legato on this fabulous Gibson is outstanding. Bravo!
Joe was one of my closest pals in the 60s when we both lived in Brooklyn. We would often play guitar together. Even when he was gigging 5 and 6 nights a week he never showed any reluctance to jam with me. I learned so much about music from Joe, but he gave me the best piece of advice I ever had. Wear moleskin pants he told me. You’ll never regret it. I’ve been wearing them ever since. Comfortable and durable. Fantastic leg-wear and I believe their anti-viral properties protected me from Covid 19. Thanks to you, Joe.
I heard of Joe around the time of his passing. I wish I took music more seriously then. I now agree that he could have been the best jazz guitarist of his time.
