Emmet Cohen Trio feat. Giveton Gelin & Patrick Bartley | Top of My Head by Roy Hargrove 

Show that brother on alto some love somebody. He's not running through exercises. He really knows how to tell a story. That brother be preachin'.

This whole series is like tiny desk for jazz and I love it

patrick bartley straight up just vibing

From the top of head, to the soles of my feet, I am blessed.

This sax solo by Patrick has me so obsessed that I'm transcribing it in its entirety, I'm almost done with it.

Giveton Gelin carrying on the tradition. One of the finest young trumpet players in the country!!

That was Roy's praise & worship tune. Saw him & quintet perform it many times.. makes me smile🙂

MY MAN QUOTING MARY JANE GIRLS AT 5:09. LEGEND!!!! Bartley's got us shook up, shook down, shook out for his playing.

The future of jazz is very promising :)

no matter how many times i hear this tune, I love it more each time!!! :) It truly stands out for me!

Majestic! Giveton Gelin - wow! Patrick Bartley - wow! and, what a rhythm section; this is so very much R Hargrove's spirit rekindled; reminds me when he was the Rhythmic, Islington, London, where, I saw and met him, and, exchanged thoughts; all of which, comes flooding back to me. He spoke so highly of Freddie Hubbard. I love the way you have arranged this, and, everything about this; you groove!

Man are these guys carrying the torch or what. Emmet and Bartley together are just insane

I've had this song stuck in my head for well over a day. I can't get over how great the band sounds and that quote of Four is incredible

3:59 how they all hit that rhythm together is actually insane, so in sync

I finally transcribed all of Patrick Bartley’s solo❤

One of the things that makes jazz great is the cooperation and presence of a group dedicated to the same ideals. It creates both power and intimacy.

I'm just over here wondering why you aren't super famous yet. Awesome job as usual!

I enjoyed the trumpet solo, no random notes just for effect! Well played Giveton! I know you played that for Roy.

I don't know how many times I heard this since it came out here on youtube, but it must have been about hundred times. And every time this band makes me happy, I love Roy's music so much and it makes me dance here in my studio - okay, more jump around than dance ... A big thank you to Emmett and Patrick and Kyle and Giveton and Russell!

This is that Roy Hargrove tune??

Some of Emmet's lines remind me of the late - 50+ years late and long overlooked - Sonny Clark.

Mr. Gelin even looking a little bit like Mr. Hargrove here. Y'all sound amazing! I love this tune.

The most uplifting thing I have seen or heard in a very long time - you play so beautifully 🙏

Kudos to the sound engineering...perfect balance. Every instrument can be heard equally.....no competing! I have heard some of the most tasteful and honest Jazz on this channel and feel so privileged. Thank you and much love from a big fan (Dean, UK)

3:56 is the moment all musicians should hope to encounter!!

some of the happiest siunding music ive heard in a while

Their tones match so nicely

5:11 That Mary Jane Girl quote is so smooth!!!

It's been a couple of months now since I listened to this tune and It sounds even better! This is certainly a special moment in time preserved for all time! I love the way they play this song! So well done, guys!

Crazy good once again .. these Monday nights have become epic. I watched the CFP Championship game with no volume and listened to the fellas kill it ..!!!

One of my favourite RU-vid channel ever! You guys are amazing...

This is the joyous selection by which I discovered Emmett Cohen and his outstanding weekly sessions, 'Live From Emmett's Place.' I must've passed this post by a couple of times, underestimating this unassuming-looking group of guys, then one day I said, "Alriiiight, let's see what they got." Was I surprised! And joyous is the right adjective for this performance - joy is the driving energy behind it and is written all over their happy faces throughout. From the lyrics, it turns out to be a hymn, and I've been a convert ever since!

Y’all bad, stellar even. Roy said in many interviews that he did for the next-gen and y’all did NOT DISAPPOINT! He’d be proud!

around 2:25, emmet plays an idea and giveton echoes - amazing!

I feel a bit sorry for Giveton on this one. Great talent that he is and a very soulful player he’s next to IMHO the best Alto player on the planet right now and Patrick simply takes it to another level on his solo as he does on everything he’s done with Emmet. Hope one day to see him live, what a player.

Roy Hargrove Arts Magnet High School at Booker T Washington, Dallas, TX!!! Rest In Peace, my friend!

Nice tribute to Roy with singing the head at the end it was a nice touch

Patrick Bartley is one of the few musicians to make Russel smile 😊

Just when you think jazz has reached its zenith you hear this song and you think jazz was just discovered ❤

Saw you with Cyrille Aimee, glad I subscribed!

Love this, thanks guys for sharing your amazing talent!

I have always said that Giveton Gelin is the reincarnation of the late Roy Hargrove. They might not like but they know I'm right. "From the top of my head to the souls of my feet, I am blessed. I am covered in the blood in the blood... I am blessed." Rest in peace Hargrove.

Da Bomb! United, tight, bright!!! Ty ty for the Soul Sauce Bros !!!✌🏻💃🌈💥🥁💪🏼🎺🏆🦉🦉❤️❤️⚡️⚡️❤️❤️🏆‼️

8:48 A quote from Grover Washington's "Winelight" solo

From the top of my head to the soles of my feet I am Blessed. Amen to that!

Real jazz!

There must be more than a few Jazz Heritage sites in Harlem and in the rest of New York City. Surely Emmet's Place has earned that designation after 40 volumes.D

I can't get enough of playing this tune and watching the interplay between the musicians - it looks like they are having so much fun

love all the moments where the players are so in sync like at 2:28 emmet plays a rhythm and then trumpet plays it back to him

They are all groovin' the hell out of this one! So good to see! God bless Emmet Cohen and the Jazz Messengers!

this is the best youtube channel ever, and all of you who play in all the episodes are AWESOME!!! hugs from Rio!!!

I’m a huge fan of the Kenny Garret-ification of alto tones prevalent today.

Absolutely beautiful, love the interaction and melodic playfulness. I keep coming back to this video inspired by the freedom in the solos 🤘

Felon and Bartley just blend so beautifully together

Giveton's playing makes me think of Roy's at times

Emmet channeling his inner Gerald Clayton, that's impressive!

Can’t bear to think this series will end. Just too great!!!!! And such a great song!!!!

This song is crackling with energy. Hearing Giveton sing and thinking of Roy Haynes, well, I'm in tears. Thank you!

roy hargrove....

can we please have some "Strasbourg St. Denis"

like this group and tjheir music.Always so....compliments

Questa è la prova che nel jazz se manca il talento e l'interplay manca tutto e qui c'è improvvisazione e anima

Gelin carrying on Hargrove's legacy of always dressing fly af

this band is so tight goddamn ... those licks were so precise

I could listen forever...

Wonderful, The Great Roy (RIP), one of my favourite musician ever!

This my favorite! Wait no, they’re ALL my favorite!!!!!!!! ❤️

lOVE Patrick's blowing ....soulful and swinging......Whole band's swinging!!!!

request "Strasbourg/St.Denis"

Love Emmet's reference at 6:24 to blue mitchell's I wish I knew

give it up for Giveton on the trumpet, one of the best young cats on the scene

Bon lives and will never die

I love this tune - and the way you guys play it! Hand-clapping, feet-patting good!

I keep listening to this one… it’s great!

Very reminiscent of Roy Hargrove, including his voice.
