Just found out Joey died August 2022 at 51 what a loss to jazz, my favorite organist. I visit this Jam often for the all that jazz offers, the swing, the rhythm, the beat, the tempo, it all comes together in this Jam. Jazz men in groups go to places together that you and I can never go, we can only can hear about it. Joey was a God kiss for people like us that love jazz and great musicians. R.I.P. Joey,. Loved you.
@@guitarttimman. Obviously, he was morbidly obese. That is what killed him. I, myself, struggle with obesity. I see the doctor, watch what I eat, exercise, but still am overweight. But, I will keep trying to control it. I liked Joey’s tone and kind of jazz.
@@thomaspick4123 God bless you man. I'm a diabetic and it's getting worse. Doc says the diabetes is running upy blood pressure and my blood pressure is causing damage. I take meds, but that only lasts so long. My WONDERFUL Sister has the same condition as yours too. It's so tough here man. All we can do is keep trying and praying for eachother bro. Best wishes man. I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
@JVossos Loved all those guys (and Shirley Scott as well)...I always considered Jimmy Smith my muse, guru and spirit guide...but I eventually had yo come to accept the fact that Joey was the greatest of them all.
I first heard Joey when he, Christian McBride and Brian L played, as a trio, during a high school jazz concert in Philadelphia years ago. He was like a young Elvis. I knew his Mom and Dad as well. I have just learned of his passing. Joey will be missed. 🌾
I love Joey. Y'all realize, don't you, that he opens this thing with a direct steal from Richard "Groove" Holmes Misty. If you haven't heard that, you really must. It's on RU-vid. And then after the Groove Holmes opening, it's pure Joey.
Master class in walking electric bass. Not that many people can do it this well. Especially in this context. With a great bass player sitting at the organ.
Our Brother, Joey DeFrancesco, during his time with us, contributed so much for so many with his style of jazz. He is now and will continue to be forever missed, but his legacy, his music and his mastery of the Hammond B3 organ (and other instruments he played) live on. Rest in peace, Our Friend and Mentor.
Excellent quintette ! Ça roule ! Merci pour ce moment…..Repose cher Joey en musique auprès de Dieu ….et charme nos Défunts !🌹🌹✝️✝️✝️🌹🌹🌹✝️✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Got to hear Joey trying out a new trumpet at a NAMM Show years ago, in the Leblanc booth I think. Tearing it up! What a great talent. Heard him later in the Hammond booth too, of course. Ridiculous. RIP good sir.
God bless Joey, he was on another planet. Loved the guy. Has the leslie on the "stop" position..cracks me up. Also his buddy, David Sanborn with him now. RIP Gents
RIP. I just learned. I guess I haven’t been reading the jazz magazines lately. I had the privilege of seeing him perform at Ronnie Scott’s. He tore down the house.
yes, i've got my loan today. we are playing a gig in Bar 42, Ljubljana, Slovenia, EU today with Blue train quintet. Greetings from jazz club Mezzoforte.
10/10 for the cameraman...the aspiring musician wants to know what these guys are doing on their instruments...11/10 for Joey's fashion choice...shirt matches the wallpaper purr-fectly, tough thing to do.
I like how Joey is playing Misty with 1 hand, that seems so cool to me, also l like the guitarist and saxophone solo, I’m a would be drummer so l got give my props to my man on drums, you sound good as well, like the way your drums are tuned.
I love the B200! Nice playing Randolph, as always! I see you played the bass pedals so much over the years your left Niki tennis show blew a gasket! Ha! Love your unique style!! 🎹🎶🎹🎶🎹 Hammond, the Sound, the Soul, the One!
Could you reiterate what exactly you are talking about? The organ used in this video is a B3 not a B200. Also there is no Randolph in this video. The organist is Joey DeFrancesco.
