@@zachjollimore4339 I'm more inclined to belive it was cocaine, which was more popular and easily obtainable in those days. Unless you're referring to Dexedrine instead of meth, Dex was insanely popular in the 50s.
@@contra_sandinista Yeah I mean speed as the blanket term for amphetamines, They'd be on a bunch of diverted army benzedrine making this jazz. This was the 40's after all.
Guys here is the real line up Trumpet - Jon Faddis Tenor Saxophone - Andres Boiarsky Piano- Cyrus Chestnut Bass- John Lee Drums- Ignacio Berroa The Dizzy Gillespie Alumni All-Stars - Dizzy's 80th Birthday Party!
It would take a life time for me to listen to all the great jazz artists that I've ran across here on youtube, I was truly born too late, my soul in totally captivated by these jazz greats!! thanks for the post Lo Mejor :)
I play a lot of baroque music, especially Bach, and his influence on bebop is obvious; the walking baselines, the counterpoint, everything. It's awesome.
Wow. Improvisation was never so tight. This song gave name to an entire movement in American Jazz. An awful lot of fun to audit. Guys who can play like this are national treasures as valuable as the legendary sword makers of old Japan.
@@macz402 ignorante seria tu comentario, honestamente lo veo dificil de comprobar pero estoy muy seguro que su comentario no era negativo si no para admirar la complejidad de la linea
@@Νικος-τ5δ forget his fingers, his cheeks and neck muscles have becomes so stretched bc of his playing that they balloon out as he plays, look up a photo of him, its kind of amazing edit: theres a photo of it at 2:30
Opener kicks in...not paying attention, groove starts building, trumpets start blasting around all over the place, chills jump up my spine and "HWOOO, ah, hwoo, HWOOOO! WHAT IS THIS!" expels from my face hole.
The velocity behind playing this fast requires not only technical mastery of the instrument, but an ear for exactly where you are in the chart, so when you "paint" those licks - the phenomenal lines and pitch bends, you're not just making noise. Wow.
Only for the first week, after that, shift it to 0.25x speed and on a blown speaker. Amphetamines like adderall allow you to take energy and stamina on credit, but like all debts, it will eventually need to be repaid or bottoms out. Caffeine is the same way, though it borrows less, and thus is repaid quicker. It's good for a boost when it's needed, but know the human body and brain has its limits
+Cole Drinkwater its just the way they play that makes it seem faster. They're doing a lot of crazy stuff on trumpet that creates that glissando effect.
+GuitarBlack I am a student at Marin School of the Arts, and most of the jazz that is played there is bebop. Honestly, it is the only kind of jazz I have heard a significant amount of (I don't really play jazz). Whenever I walk in, the jazz that is being played is always in this style. People play it in the passing periods and even in the alcoves around the bandroom.
OMG this is what you need in life. World is trash right now and this is a slice of heaven and clarity. If you cant find clarity in listening to this jumble of in sync perfection, then you are fragmented
Sort of. There are some Bebop influences in Cuphead, but really the game is actually more in the earlier Swing style overall. Bebop focuses less on well orchestrated pieces for big bands, and more for solo improvisation within small bands.
There’s no bebop in cup head. Makes me pretty sad that the only thing kids know any kind of jazz from is cuphead. Cuphead has swing, even Dixieland in many places so almost proto-jazz. A style that came before the flying solos and blistering speed of bebop. I see a few comments talking badly about the music too which is far more annoying. If only you guys knew what you were listening to, you’d appreciate it a lot more.
@@VasilyMusic It is not about addiction. Today death metal is not the same as in 80s and 90s. Lots of bands are well skilled and its common for them to use elements of Jazz. Check out Gorod - Aethra, or Gorod - Transcedence. This song is definitely influenced by Jazz.
As I have long ago pointed out to St Andreu Jazz Band, "Bebop" although attributed to either Howard McGhee or Dizzy Gillespie is actually an adaptation of Stan Kenton`s 1941 The Harlem Folk Dance. Also titled Harlem Holiday. Kenton`s orchestra was way ahead in experiments with chord extensions and Cuban rhythm - long before Gillespie and the be-boppers. Best wishes to all RU-vidrs. Chris Pirie.
As much as I love black metal, it's got nothing on bebop. In metal it's mostly the same pattern throughout the whole song, while in jazz or fusion they use the kit the most creative ways possible.
I'm here because of a fever dream that I had just an hour ago with UFOs and two dimensional 1800s soldiers. So, the rain started and I told my cat that bebop is my life (even though I haven't listened to much bebop before). My cat got scared of rain, thunder and jackal noises outside, so I told her that it's just the rain bebop and there's nothing to be scared of. What...
I am the Walrus Not exactly, more like I grew up in the wrong generation and I also watch Cowboy Bebop, which proves that bebop or jazz music is not obsolete.
So who knows who these guys are? Trumpet has far more chops than Dizzy developed. Tenor sax and not close to Parker's style. Drummer's bass drum work and approach are post Tony Williams. In any case, way excellent! Thank you for posting this!!
John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie tenia 75 años cuando nos dejo en junio del 93, llevaba entonces 58 años impresionandonos con su estilo, desde que en 1935 se unió a la Orquesta de Frank Fairfax, el tocaba el piano y cantaba, pero sobre todo era trompetista, algunos dicen que el mejor y otros que uno de los mejores, y desde luego era un espectáculo ver como inflaba los carrillos, como seguramente hizo en este "BeBop". #ClassicMonday #Jazz #Bebop
That´s right, it´s James Moody playing tenor and his style is quite different from Bird. The tune and the band is Dizzy´s and while it´s in the same ballpark it is hardly a tribute to Bird. Still it gets some stars for good intentions.
Yeah... I perfectly understand that consonent intervals and chords are mathematically elegant, but the math and organisation and structure was all created to make the "feeling" easyer to get. I do not dismiss the importance of theory in music, as a matter of fact I am fascinated by it, but my oppinion is that one can perfectly create amazing music without any understanding of that theory. But still, in complex music forms such as Jazz, it is always easyer to make good group music whith theory
The "history"of the jazz: Worksong>Spirituals>Blues>Jazz>write Worksong(enterteiner)>Be-Bop>Rythm&Blues>Rock n' roll(is the same notes of the blues) Jazz have a complicate and fine history, from the 1850 (first worksong) to the 1960 (Rock n'roll) and i love it XD
