@maxhult830 2 года назад

@@baronvonsatan Well of course, it's an opinion alright! To answer your question... my fingers were guided by my impression of Adam. More specifically, his condescending attitude towards tuning up or down. He claims it has no effect. But as we all know, it has been done many times by many artists, tuning down a tad or slowing down the tape, when they feel the result better suits/reflects the "vibe" of the song. Some composers have transposed by a semitone or two for this reason, but Adam thinks detuning 30 cents has no effect. AND he has a douche attitude about it, and THAT's my main criticism. I have to vehemently disagree on that point, detuning 30 cent makes a difference. Hence my opinion.

Jaco was one hell of a composer. Jaco was one hell of an improviser. He openly aspired to be *both* and blew the ceiling off of it all. To be a great improviser you have to be a great composer because you are composing in real time. None of this is mutually exclusive at all!

As a life long fan of music who gets to play in a group setting and earn a little money - from time to time - it’s so nice to have your channels to absorb pertinent information. You both are very articulate and can express your thoughts succinctly. The production quality is great and the content is even better. Having the background in jazz is a blessing in that you have a passion for the theory, performance and lineage that many of us do as well. We all like to hear about CMaj7 third inversion with the B on the bottom. It’s not political or life threatening, and yet helps us cope with those issues. Thank you for another perfect segment.

I watched the whole interview. I had previously seen Rick's video discussing the Dua Lipa lawsuit and a few days later I watch Adam's video on the same subject. My very first thought was, wouldn't it be great if Rick and Adam got together and discussed their opinions on the matter. My thought became reality!

@PetersonSilva 2 года назад

yeah me too! And I also liked the direction this went, with Rick explaining this analysis, they both agreeing that the key being the same is weird, Adam recognising the podcast's story might be a cover-up in advance... Rick's inside story about receiving mixes with the song to be copied is also golden. Such an interesting conclusion to these two different takes on the issue.

@Markle2k 2 года назад

Exactly. But I was thinking that when Rick said he would have an old friend on, he was talking about Mary Spender since she had been in Atlanta with Rhett.

@Vito_Tuxedo 2 года назад

I toured with BS&T in '75 (mixing stage monitors) when Jaco was in the band, and I was lucky enough to jam (drums) with them when Bobby Colomby wanted to go out to the house mix station to hear the band. It is an absolute fact that Jaco never played *_anything_* the same way twice. He played whatever he wanted to play, partly to keep himself engaged and interested, partly to challenge and stimulate his band mates, but mostly just because he couldn't help creating. It was PLAY for him. This all happened before Jaco became...you know, The Jaco Of It All-a legend. I didn't know any of that was going to happen. All I knew was that he was the most intense, incredibly focused, spontaneously...no, wait... *_explosively_* creative musician I had ever met. He also frequently kicked my ayuss in racquetball. It made me a better racquetball player; jamming with him and watching him play, up close, night after night, made me a better musician. That's what true greatness does to those who encounter it. BTW, Rick & Adam, I watched this straight through. When two cats who have separately earned my respect on their own merits get together, of course I'm gonna watch, and the appearance of the name "Jaco" in the title sweetened the deal considerably. 😎

@Vito_Tuxedo 2 года назад

@@skierpage I know nothing about the Facebook post, nor did I intend any of my comments to make reference to it in any way. If you inferred a connection, I did not imply one. I simply stated my observation. As to whether Jaco "worked out his solos in advance", I never saw him write them out, nor did I ever see him bring any charts on stage. I guess it's possible that he thought about them in advance, such that he had a general concept in mind. He certainly had that facility in his relationship to music. So, I wouldn't rule out that kind of "advance" preparation; however, my comments weren't intended to speak to the "in advance" issue. By way of context, many of BS&T's songs were set up as frameworks for jamming. Bobby hired some great jazz players, all of whom had great improvisational skills. No one knew what anyone else what going to do in advance at any given gig. They all just listened to each other, and took their inspiration from that. Just how much any of them-including Jaco-may have done any advance preparation is unknown to me.

@Vito_Tuxedo 2 года назад

@@charlescoleman6896 There may have been cassette tapes of the house console mix. The house mix engineer on that tour was Al Tucker, and he frequently ran a stereo feed off the board into a cassette deck for the band to listen to after the gig. If those tapes still exist, they're probably in Bobby Colomby's library. The last time I spoke with him, he was a VP at Capitol Records in Hollywood, but that was probably 30 years ago. I dunno where he is now.

@davidjordan2336 2 года назад

I remember when I was in high school I was taking some jazz improvisation piano lessons with the music teacher. A lot of the homework was along the lines of work out five different ways of moving from this chord to that chord. After a while I quizzed the teacher about this. I complained, I thought we would be doing improvisation, but it seems that all I'm doing is memorizing stuff. And isn't that the opposite of improvisation? His response to this was that to improvise effectively, you needed to have worked out a gazillion short patterns, so that in the moment you could map the feeling of where you'd like to go to a sequence of notes that will actually accomplish that. That these memorized micro movements were the vocabulary that you could then use while improvising. And the richer your vocabulary, the better music you can make. This may or may not be how the good players do it, but it made a lot of sense to me.

@mrtyreus0 2 года назад

It's definitely one school of thought. The other is to understand where those patterns are derived some and then create your own.

My bet is that he worked out the chords to fit the melody (bare with me) - obviously not consciously, but subconsciously - like, those were the melodies going through his head as he composed the harmonic changes. When it came time to throw down the track, they were there in his head because that's how his brain worked out those progressions in the first place. As time went on, he experimented with it as professionals do - and, of course, that would explain the outtake. Who knows?

I'm a little older than you rick and I don't ever remember anyone being as generous with their music-related knowledge as you are. You're a good man. Much continued success!

I feel like both of these guys are my unofficial music theory teachers. I'm failing horribly. Good thing they don't test. This is awesome!

THank you very much, guys. I enjoyed every minute of your conversation. It's very important to bring more music, fun and love in our world, we all need it.

@ITGuy1970 2 года назад

I watched all the way to the end, Rick! I was a subscriber of yours since before you had 60k subs and you feel like a long lost Uncle at this point. I've turned so many people on to you that really appreciate the content you produce (musicians and music fans alike). Thank you for all you do. I've learned so much and my musical tastes have vastly expanded because of you.

@TimSamoff 2 года назад

This was incredible. We need more conversations like this! Oh, and I definitely watched it all the way through to the end! ♥️♥️♥️

@saulf.4678 2 года назад

Of course we watched it the whole way through, Rick! We love both of you guys so much! You both treat music the way it's meant to be treated, you honor it, you enjoy it, you analize it, you investigate it, you learn it, you divulge its history, you explain its inner workings, you love it. Long story short: you're both pretty damn incredible and cool. 💯

@steveg6199 2 года назад

I watched to the end and have been subscribed to you both for a little while now. I've been hoping for a while that this video would be made. Thank you both!

@dvjvbv 2 года назад

You both have excellent channels. Interesting, technical content. Rick's "what makes this song great" vids are wonderful music appreciation classes. I hear things in music I've been listening to for 40 years now that I never heard before, and Adam's vids are sort of sciencey. The love and knowledge of music is amazing, contagious, inspiring. And I made it to the end - why would I not?

@EphemeralTao 2 года назад

Been following you both for years now; and it's great to see you collaborating again. Watched to the end, and I hope to see more!

Good luck with the edit LOL!!! It’s great having you two just sitting and talking. I hope you two do this much more often than you have as it’s always good.

@DemonApple1982 2 года назад

I did watch it all the way through since I subscribe to both channels. The talk about Jaco did make me think about how my improvisation of solos evolved throughout the years in the studio. I used to practice and improvise with other musicians but found myself wanting to cut the fluff where the solo should be so there are very few boring spots. After years of studying music theory, I stated playing over the recorded section repeatedly until I have about 60-80% of what I'm going to play memorized and then hit record. That way it would at least have a beginning, middle and an end that works within the context of the song. I remember hearing stories of how Frank Zappa would grill his band to pay attention to the leads they hear so they know whether to extend parts live by hearing if it sounds like it's beginning, going or ending.

@markmeriaux9988 2 года назад

Watched to the end. You have both helped me expand my language to learn and share music with others. Keep up the great work!

@sketch230 2 года назад

Excellent. Both these guys have such engaging ways of putting over ideas and concepts of things which I almost feel, but have no way of articulating, and nurturing a will to learn because it's so damn cool to know what you're doing and what you're talking about. Great to see them together.

@eckerjoe 2 года назад

All the way to the end, subscribed to both of you years back. always an excellent resource !

@skrowmedia 2 года назад

I absolutely love all the comments you guys have both made multiple times about the desire to return to live tracked albums with the whole band in the same room. Especially in improvised music, which needs that energy to be captured. Advances in technology and manufactured pop music have made us so obsessed with perfection as a culture that we have forgotten that all those little flaws are part of what make the music human. Great chat, guys.

@Foodgeek 2 года назад

You should make more videos together. I made it to the end without skipping 😁

Loved every second of this conversation. It’s great to hear two equally unique and valuable perspectives talk out the details of there passion. Watched all the way to the end and only realized it was ending when y’all were wrapping it up asking if there’s still people listening, of course listening y’all. AMAZING VIDEO MORE OF THIS !

@julijalemenaite8211 2 года назад

I watched till the end since I want to grow into the most well rounded musician I can be and not just focus on one particular idea or genre. I want to understands the intricacies of it all (even beyond the music itself). You guys need to start making regular videos together the energy together is pure fire.

@benjamindewey3841 2 года назад

@danielmesa2102 2 года назад

I watched to the end. You do not need any fancy subtitle. I know you both and these conversations make me feel that I'm there in the room relaxing and learning about music in a comfortable way.

@Bsmiley333 2 года назад

Yes, watched this to the end, because Rick, you and Adam are two of the most important and best music education video makers on YT. These collaborations between YT creators are great. Can't get enough. Watched and loved the Neely video about Vulfpeck and Jaco with the Scary Pockets guys because it's a fascinating music topic with musicians who really know their stuff, and do awesome music videos. Rick, your interviews with Sting, Seal, Carter, Di Miola, ect. have provided invaluable insights into these stellar musicians process and experiences; because you know how to ask the right questions and give plenty of space for the subject to answer. Great video guys! Looking forward to the next one.

@tschaggon 2 года назад

They should do a podcast together, the knowledge and the insights are just amazing. Please make more of this stuff!!!

@PhilipJoyceMusician 2 года назад

Two of my favourite channels coming together. Awesome. Now, if you can just get Nahre Sol in the room with you two I can die happy.

@ivanbutler6079 2 года назад

I enjoy watching both of your work, maybe not because you know so much, but because you seem genuinely curious - and we need that more than we need people who just know stuff. And yes I saw this video to the end :)

@keithmitchell94 2 года назад

@jeffjuhre1494 2 года назад

I watched to the end because I love both of you guys and what you do. Keep up the stuff that only you can do. Pop culture is everywhere to the point that you can't escape it. I've honestly never heard a Dua Lipa song but still listen to Jaco quite frequently. Music greats are only remembered because folks like you keep them alive. Keep up the good work!

@willemdegroot6959 2 года назад

Yes, I made it to the end I had even to fast backward a bit because I was in the kitchen making coffee for myself. I follow you both, learning a lot about music theory and jazz music. Keep up the good work guys!

Very compelling conversation, watched the whole thing! This particular video reignited my inspiration to create on RU-vid. I'd love to see another video like this in the future from the two of you!
