"Scrapple From The Apple" Stan Getz, Gary Burton, Steve Swallow, Roy Haynes. (1966) 

Did you listen him at 33 , and at 43 , try at 53.

Thank God for their appreciation and documentation of this music. Same goes for the Japanese.

He picked up the electric bass in 1970 at a trade show. I think this was the pre-NAMM era. Gary Burton's band was one of Steve's early steady gigs on electric bass as he lost some work when he made the switch. One of his most ardent supporters was the drummer in this clip - Mr. Roy Haynes. He's still with us as of this writing - he's 96 and was, at least as far as I know, still playing! Steve is still playing a ton - with much output being with John Scofield. Gary Burton recently retired.

@@christophercharles9645 Thanks for all the info! I recently read Gary Burton's autobiography and thoroughly recommend it. It's well written, laugh-out-loud entertaining as well as thoughtful.

This is from 1966, Roy Haynes had all that stuff going even 20 years before this bro 👍

Ignácio Ito On the other hand, Gary Burton is VERY recognizable, haha. Kinda funny how his young self in this vid and his current self look exactly the same, except with a few wrinkles. He aged very nicely.

the way it should bw

@@atleyking2086 Why? The bridge was improvised by Parker anyway, so why should it be reproduced?

@@srrlIdl Because it's part of the original. For all we know the A section was also improvised.

@@silva777 The A part wasn't improvised. Miles Davis and Parker played it together unison :) Parker improvised the B part on his own, and in every version he played it differently.

Got to to play such an unwieldy instrument

I don’t agree. And neither does he. Each to his own....

It appears they, for some reason, used the stabilization option when they were editing this. Can't understand why the original would need shots stabilized.

mmm

You are revealing your lack of ears, sir...

@@ivoryconsort The fact is that you can't see Burton's problems, dear amateur.

That's two absurdly unsupportable opinions you've posted.

@@stefanmichaud2007 They are not opinions, it's criticism.

@@Rickriquinho If it's not a matter of objectively demonstrable fact, it's opinion. Critical opinion, and unfounded.

@@stefanmichaud2007 If you can't see the objective qualities of the musicians, dear amateur, what can I do?

@@Rickriquinho You can STFU because you're clearly an idiot.

why?

Raef Black Because he only has technique. He is not a real soloist. Listen to Hutcherson or Jackson to see the difference.

Ricardo da Mata Okay , I see where you are coming from and won't disagree with you. Thanks for answering the question.

he was just 23 there... he got really better as he aged.

welcometomygrave He is still boring nowadays.
