Brazil has such a unique and beautiful guitar tradition. They’re the best in my opinion, playing the melody, harmony and bass line at the same time, fusing jazz, classical, and folk elements.
Todo lo que acabas de mencionar son elementos propios de la guitarra clasica, de hecho bola sete es un guitarrista clásico y utilizó su tecnica aplicada al jazz, si te fijas en la postura que usa para sujetar la guitarra te daras cuenta de esto. También hay otro guitarrista clasico muy conocido en el mundo del jazz el cual te recomiendo escuchar, se llama charlie bird. Éste ultimo junto con bola sete son en mi opinión los mas importantes exponentes de la guitarra clásica en el mundo del jazz. Saludos desde república dominicana.
This is an episode of Jazz Casual, a series hosted by Ralph Gleason on PBS in the 1960s. Here's the track listing: 0:00 "Outra Vez" 10:39 "Tango El Bongo" 13:25 "Tour De Force" 19:35 "Star Song" 24:33 "Mambossa"
Aside from the music, I love how this is all shot with mostly one blurry (by today's standards) camera, in B/W, and is still better content than most of today's multi-million-dollar crap on TV.
Yep... 'cause there actually is CONTENT. Talent, performance, art, good manners. Not just morons hanging out at beach houses or in their living rooms being "on tv".
Saw Bola Sete with Vince Guaraldi free at El Camino College around the same time as this clip. Made me late for my next class because I couldn’t leave it was so good. Fortunately, my instructor was there as well so he was late too.. It was all he could talk about at first. I used to see Bola riding his bike on the strand in Hermosa and Manhattan Beach. He was of course unmistakeable with that ear to ear smile. Also saw them live at the Lighthouse in Hermosa. Had front row seats about 5 feet from Bola.. Never forget it!!
When I was young in my 20's, I liked going to the Lighthouse. then 30 years later, I played in two bands there. Fun times. Also went to Concerts by the Sea in Redondo.
Bola... Its all about Bola Sete man. Edit- nothing against Mr. Guaraldi but I just love jazz guitar and bossa is the best for guitar, and Mr Bola Sete is one of the best for bossa.
I first became aware of Bola Sete in 1969. When the first Santana album was released, WNEW FM in NY would occasionally play a segue, with a cut from the Santana album followed by a piece by Bola Sete.
How funny how every once in a while you can hear the chords Guaraldi used in Peanuts. You can see how his experience with this music melded into that music. Amazing musicians.
Very cool - Vince G. had one of the best touches on the keys, and Bola S. is simply intoxicating on the guitar. Could listen to this quartet all day long.
saw a VG doc abt 10 years ago at a film festival screening. Well attended but may not have gotten enuf attention to score distribution. Ask your local Library if they can find a copy. It was well made with family shots, etc. Unfortunately most people think everything he played was "Snoopy-flavored". *sigh*
It always amazes me that in the hands of one person, a six-string acoustic guitar is for strumming campfire chords and singalongs - and in another person's hands it's purpose is to create unbelievably complex and jaw-droppingly cool stuff like this. Same instrument, different hands. I say that without any judgement (AND as a guitar player myself who would love to be able to play 1/1000th as good as that dude).
Was just listening to some Peanuts music so decided to research Vince. Must admit to never really knowing much about him. Fantastic jazz pianist in my opinion. Some of the improv and riffs in the Peanuts Christmas music just blows me away every time I hear it. "Smooth" is a good description for his style.
Perfect description. As a kid growing up in the 60s it was my definition of "cool." My musical tastes have been pretty eclectic all my life -- but Guaraldi's jazz interpretations were what I associated with "cool" -- and were not just a bridge between R&B and rock but was the conduit through which both flowed. And Guaraldi and Brubeck were the masters. Brubeck was a genius of course; but Guaraldi's style and compositions have resonated with me my whole life, and will forever be what I associate with "jazz." BTW Bola Sete's style here on "Outra Vez" is the perfect marriage with Guaraldi's piano playing.
Love bola. I still have an autographed copy of ocean somewhere. I dont know why ppl try to compare him to baden powell? Clearly baden is more technically gifted, but bola just has a certain inimical charm.
Thank you for posting this! Carlos Santana did a video in the 90s called "influences" where he discussed 3 guitarists: Wes Montgomery, Gabor Szabo and Bola Sete. Please watch it. It will blow your mind and change your playing forever.
Vince guraldi was very hip to say the least so much so that he’s the only artist outside the Grateful Dead to be pictured on a album of there’s being aoxomoxa the guy on the horse is Vince who was a fan of the band and a label mate of them as Vince also switched from fantasy to Warner/7arts in 68’ so this being a early performance is note worthy and 💯 in a style of its own
Im 42 but don't be surprised if I throw a party and have Vince and like artist playing out the night. Bola Sete is amazing here as well. Bola gets it out around 14:00. I love this .
I saw Bola and Vice in performance! I was only 13m but seared into my memory. When he was in town, he was always featured on local TV. Long live local TV! Bring it back. There was a show on KPOX-5, Sundays at 3: POW hosted by Rolf Petersen, later by John Wasserman. Gabor Szabo was often on it... Other local things on Channel 9 (NET, before it became PBS) had Big Brother & the Holding Company, & other bands like Country Joe & the Fish, taped at Kezar Stadium.
@@MrSonovox I would say I'm sure that at 13 it would've done nothing for me. But then again I was an absolutely *massive* Peanuts fan as a kid so who knows? A few years back my band the Peat Fountains recorded a version of the Monkees' "Last Train To Clarksville" done to the tune of a Guaraldi Peanuts number. It is on Soundcloud under the title "Last Train To Brownsville" if you want to check it out...
hey, I'm from Brazil, and, I have to tell you, Brazil don't value yourself, because I know this great musician today, and ANYONE that I know, heard about him, that is crazy
@@zeruela5528 Hey dude, why is your country continuing to destroy the rain forest? Cattle grazing, soya raising, making more toilet paper. Once it’s gone it’s gone.
@Heavy Mental because whoever has money rules, regardless of the damage, I don't know there but here the more money and possession the more ignorant people are, like our president and all our government actually,
Vincent Guaraldi and Bola Sete were made for each other! Once in a lifetime talent. I know there are many talented artists out there today, unfortunately we don't hear them over the crappy pop music.
I have a keepsake YT playlist only for the special and noteworthy. Adding this was a no-brainer. A shame live VG footage is so rare - what was everyone _thinking_ lol
I liked the music Vince guarldi composed for “be my valentine Charlie Brown” since it’s in the meloncholic soundtrack and also “a Charlie Brown thanksgiving”
Schultz didn't make that decision. San Francisco Chronicle columnist Ralph Gleason put TV producer Lee Mendelson in touch with Vince Guaraldi. The rest, as they say, is history.
@@ApartmentKing66 Schultz had the final say on the project and was a jazz fan. The network thought the would be to progressive for kids, they were wrong.
The bossa nova from Brazil in the early 60's had a great influence on American jazz and really turned it towards that smooth jazz we have today that is so well loved. There is another video of Sinatra with Antonio Carlos Jobim from the mid 60's that is incredible. Three songs from an old TV show. Worth the watch.
Orgulho de ser brasileiro ! Apesar dos pesares... O Violão Brasileiro que é único. Como Djalma Andrade (Bola Sete), Dilermando Reis, Dino 7 Cordas, Villa-Lobos, Toquinho, Paulinho Nogueira, Baden ... e Raphael Rabello. Obrigado pela postagem !
Seems like Vince hunches over the keyboard like Schroeder on Charlie Brown. Or the cartoon most likely was drawn that way because of that. Or maybe that's all in my mind lol
O estilo de picking do Bola Sete é maravilhoso em todo o vídeo. Ele também pode atacar uma fret board. Um casamento de dois exemplos de jazz no piano e violão de 6 cordas.
Bola Sete was the man.i wonder why did Earl Klug dont mention him as influence..casue E Klugh in his first album sounded like Bola Sete more than other classical guitar players
