Love the way Ron Carter breaks it down in his solo. It's as if he listened to the trio, then explained to the rest of us how the music was constructed. Gorgeous!
I can't believe it, I learn something new every time I listen to Ron Carter's technique and talent. The people who surround him are balanced and follow Ron and Ron follows them. Well managed team...the results is pure Gold....
I had the honour of meeting him after a concert in limoges , he is such a nice person , it's wonderful to know that a person with such profound musicality can also be a beautiful being . thank you rn carter , you have given me my best jazz moment .
Listen to Freddy Green in the Count Basie band and you'll understand what a guitar can do, "that the drummer would normally do". What an excellent timekeeper Freddy was. Ken, Toronto
Gosh, the musicality in this is insane. I can't imagine being able to play like Malone. Total command. I've been playing Autumn leaves for two years now as a jazz guitarist and after watching this I wanna throw my guitar off a cliff.
To me this tune is a true test to see if a musician can jam. A standard standard if you will. These guys did wonderful. And speaking as a bass player, Mr. Carter @ 6:27, you are an inspiration. Jazz F-ing Rules!!!!!!
I got the chance to meet him after what was the best concert i have ever heard , a kind man with a presence as heavy as his past . thank you M. Carter .
Jacky Terrasson is greatly under appreciated, and for those who think he sucks, or is out of tune, you simply don’t understand jazz or life, the idea of occasional dissonance or playing “outside”...
But when fall comes, kicking summer out on its treacherous ass as it always does one day sometime after the midpoint of September, it stays awhile like an old friend that you have missed. It settles in the way an old friend will settle into your favorite chair and take out his pipe and light it and then fill the afternoon with stories of places he has been and things he has done since last he saw you
Decir originalidad en el jazz no es moneda nueva, aunque siempre difícil de gastar. Pero, ¿qué decir del swing de un contrabajista (!) cuando es apreciado hasta el extremo de ser solicitado para la grabación de miles de discos? Más de 3.500 en el caso de Ron Carter (Ferndale, Michigan, 1937). ¿No existen más contrabajistas en el mundo? De pocos músicos (acaso alcancen los dedos de la mano) se puede decir algo así. Y el gran Carter se los debe a su particular swing, contagiante y estremecedor, subcutáneo y demoledor por ratos, siempre sutil y ardiente. El segundo gran quinteto de Miles Davis lo catapultó a la fama y desde entonces no ha parado. La lista de la gente con la que ha tocado y grabado es enciclopédica, bíblica: Thelonius Monk, Wes Montgomery, Cannonball Adderley, Chet Baker, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Stan Getz y George Benson entre varios cientos más.
coming from a musical family, inheriting mutant talent DNA, practicing about 8 hours per day for the better part of the best years of your life when others are outside playing football and chasing booty, and then apprenticing to ego monster legends for a few more years, playing for peanuts, while hopefully building a rep. that will allow you develop a solo career of your own. did i leave anything out?
You say the only thing wrong with jazz in youtube are certain kind of comments but you say this is a tired old music, well then not only the comments are wrong.According to you all of us that love this music and therefore any authentic and honest good music are childish and trying to look cool Obviously since you are unable of expressing a mature and coherent comment you are unconsciously referring to yourself.
