Here's a clip of Norman Brown performing at the Eastman guitar booth at NAMM 2013 Enjoy and "Stay Stay Smooooth". smoothjazzfamily filmed using the new Zoom Q2HD
Norman is great but the other brother ain' t too shabby either --- great performance by both.... so much talents.... Affirmation one of my all time favorite song!
It's amazing how you see these artist playing their craft at the the conventions and everyone walks these guys like they are homeless musicians who are in the street playing for pennies. The mentality of some people (you know what I mean) are totally amazing. I see the same reaction daily as i head for the elevator at work. If they knew anything about musicians they would know that was indeed Norman Brown a well accomplished musician.!
Hi Norman Brown, I think that you are one of the best Jazz guitarists out today bruh. We in the Jazz playing community have to give respect where it's due, thank you for so many great sounding song my friend.
Norman Brown, just a shout pit to say I love your music brother. I had the privelage of seeing you once with Jonathan Butler on a sunset cruise on the Hudson River. Probably one of the best days of my life besides getting married to my honey.
I was standing next to the camera guy for this shoot and there were barely 5-6 people watching...4 feet away....It was all so laid back, unpretentious. I have some Norman Brown recordings, but didn't recognize him right away. 'Cool moment in time.
thats not Happy. But Happy is dope. I met the guy with the blue guitar about 5 years ago and he was down to earth and real cool. But two different people
If I am in a guitar store and somebody really good starts jammin' like this, I'm at attention and all ears! The zombies in the background must be stoned on Klonopin. By the way....that Native American guy wandering around looks like the actor who starred with Charles Bronson in the White Buffalo movie.
The branches from George Benson's musical tree are everywhere. From really established players like Norman Brown and others all across the globe just have been so heavily influenced by him. The Smooth Jazzers have made a cottage industry out of his sound. Can't think of a finer tribute to one of the world's great guitarists.
I have an Eastman 810CE "Uptown" on the advice of Norman's then technical assistant. I've never looked back. Norman didn't have one then, and his man was arranging this partnership with Eastman at the time. Go Kraig!
Are those souless people in the back ground green screen? If i was there and saw Norman playing guitar i'd be right at the front of the crowd to watch.
phenomenal - both guitarists are splendid. however this song is a Jose Feliciano song that George Benson did in 1976 on Breezin'. Fantastic interpretation.
Grateful that I found this....Inspirational, Wish I was there. When are you guys playing at the Hard Rock in Hollywood. I'd go. PS: WTF is wrong with the music cretans in the background. What goobers. The only thing I can come up with is that you guys photoshop'd them into the background LOL
The people are background for the video, they were told not to look.into the cameras, If that was NAMM and Norman Brown was playing you bet your sweet ass I would be right next to.him
Really, these guys are doing this tune and those deaf people don't even know whats going on and who they are in the midst of? I would have brought in a small drum kit and laid down the drums to it!
Tito Aguilar Guitar Duets even with good players are often disappointing or bothering and "empty" .Their first interest concerns mainly "guitars maniacs"
Who cares about the people in the background.... you have people in the front listening to them.....The camera should have been turned the other way...
