Impressions - M.Brecker/D.Liebman/G.Garzone/J.Redman 

I have not laughed this hard in a while, you're so right. cheers

he eh you r not so wrong also if I respect all of them (Joshua is quite a child comparing to them)...but Mike..yes he is blessed...by himself 'cause he built note by note step by step his style and personality

Nah. Just different great cuisines on the menu. You know that Brecker revered Liebman, right? They played countless hours together in Lieb’s Chelsea loft in the early 70s?

Sir, it's in his mind all the time, but he's totally in his zone, ....but hears everything in the rhythm section. Only a genius level can play like that. He's the extension of Trane.

@@SaxophoneSteveKortyka If he did, he could easily find it again! I played w/ Dave, so I can say I know his genius.

@@SaxophoneSteveKortyka I think not... I can loose the fom and find it again, Liebman can't... he's always in... he doens't loose.

@@KentHewittpiano88 lol

@@SaxophoneSteveKortyka it sounded like he did at the end and then Geoffrey brought everyone back to the top of the form for his solo.

Impressions, not Tenor Madness

It's so funny how we all have such different taste! I'll admit I'm not a Garzone expert but I've never heard him play anything resembling a melody during a solo... Always the same incoherent "runs" that I can't wait to skip. Wonder if that's what the master Brecker sounds like to the untrained ear 😂 Friend of mine enrolled late and got stuck with Garzone for a semester. Ended up transferring out halfway through and I totally see why.

@@wilfredoalfaro not sure a fetus would be able to play an instrument. And don't worry, if you watch TV you've heard my music 😉

He’s a beast. Jam!

They all honor the spirit of coltrane with their own styles you gotta love it

Exactly.

They all sound the same! Competing with Coltrane and failing.

As a player, I never felt I had to “best” somebody unless we were cutting. I feel these guys were just making their own statements. It’s up to us, the audience, to decide what works to make us feel.

REAL SHIT

Thanks It's easier for me to skip liebman now

@@kennyr1161 if you listen coltrane more. you skip coltrane too?

@@desireapple2630 Coltrane is better than liebman whats your point?

@@kennyr1161 oh im sorry. I thought you meaning skip out liebman, but you meaning skip in Liebman right?

@@desireapple2630 No I meant skip out

RIGHT ON BRO !!!

Love it!!! 😂

Absolutely !! !

The funniest comment ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Rhinesee und w cvv VV sind edle haben uns auch sehr

nice one.

I have to head' back to the shed cuz they'll probably call this tune or So What this week, and i definitely do not have a sufficiently interesting answer in hand for that question. darn you. thanks.

Redman for me brecker is solid

I am so glad someone got Brecker's birth year correct; March 29, 1949. NOT 1957 as appeared on screen at the end of the performance. Thank you LOL!

+Paul Angelini But he beat the heck out of those drums for those 26 minutes.

He's absolutely brilliant! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I call it drive. The song is 2 chords. Jack always play with fire. Smile.

Jack is a superb player. Period hands down.

Redman for me

So true

AND J.REDMAN

totally agree! !! The best solo of this live from far.

yeah, his solo builds really nicely

It's hard to believe how under rated Joshua still is and I'm a big Garzone fan!

joshua redman is not underrated hes like the most popular saxophonist at the moment lol

Michael Brecker will go down as one of the all time greats in Jazz history, but Joshua Redman is most definitely his equal on this tune. Liebman and Garzonne are no doubt great players but they can.t seem to match the level of Brecker and Redman in this performance.

Although, Joshua kicks serious ass!

I thought the same about Mike’s hands, I think being tall and having large hands had something to do with it. And practice, of course.

I know you care so you should be okay.

Dave Holland? Christian McBride played Bass on this.

😂 that same brow raise and shoulder shrug he gave Metheny for messing up the head to his own tune

@@brockbah2048on which vid?

"Lol @ Brecker laughing at himself for coming in early on the head at the beginning of the vid." Perhaps he was just too eager about _first impressions._

swiskowski agreed. his time is unreal

Absolutely agree.

My humble opinion: #1 - Best Solo = Garzone, another level. #2 - 2nd Place = Redman/Brecker tie. #3 - Christian McBride, ‘nuff said. #4 - Incredible Rhythm Section, as an ensemble. Endurance, contribution and support in so many deep ways throughout. #5 - DeJohnette’s solo, spirit. #6 - Keezer’s fine comping and selflessness. Not to be underestimated. Not as audible/present as it should be in this video capture, but if you listen closely, you can hear its importance. Remaining aspects/challenges: A. Difficult live sound job. Often the case on festival gigs like this. The music shines through, however. One could imagine how gorgeous all this would sound with all or most of the electricity turned off. B. The leader of the group contributes beautiful energy and vibe to the ensemble and the proceedings, but on this particular performance, his solo work “loses the thread” within the first 8 bars and never recovers. This has nothing to do with playing “out” vs. “in”, etc. It has to do with more fundamental aspects than that. The leader can be heard constructing much more coherent improvisations, including “very out” playing, on his earlier recordings as a sideman with Elvin Jones in particular.

@@kjb930 For me, Liebman = most unique, Brecker = most fiery, Garzone = most explosive, Redman = most refined.

Everyone had it delivered supernally but Garzone’s solo can be printed and bound for a full course on jazz improvisation. Good balance between chops and melodic innovation

kkkkkkk

Well said!

Haha I think Redman destroys James Carter, but nobody comes close to Brecker

This James Carter is a show of tricks: always a far pissing contest. Tiring and not interesting!

James destroyed Joshua in that tenor battle….stop it! James covers the entire history on tenor -from Webster to Kirk……in every solo!!

Kent Hewitt it's so cool seeing you outside of just seeing your videos! I'm a huge fan!

yup, big time!

Micheal Breaker is not God. He studied the hell out of John Coltrane , Joe Henderson, and all the other master before him. He's is a great we all can agree , but he is not God. God gave him and everyone of the musicians here on this video their magnificent gift. Breaker is God . Really?😢

Yeahhhhhhhhh
