In this episode, we immerse ourselves in the musical world of the legendary Miles Davis Quintet of the 1950's. We will discuss how to listen to Jazz through the solos of Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones. The featured tune is Sonny Rollins Jazz standard "Oleo" which is based on the chord changes of George Gershwin's "I Got Rhythm" also known as "Rhythm Changes."

Oh also - I do hate *BAD* jazz! It takes a video like this to separate the chaff from the wheat - because if someone just dives in, they will be guided unwittingly by the market forces underneath the musical waters, and waste lots of time wondering “so this is jazz? I guess this is supposed to be good? OK, then” only to find recordings like this years later. And yeah, that was me (let’s not name names).

@mlbalan74 4 года назад

I listened to the whole track last night after watching this video. I only really know hard bop from owning some Clifford Brown recordings, as we share the same hometown. I discovered that Horace Silver played on the first recording of "Oleo." I know Silver from the two "A Night at Birdland" albums, where Brown played trumpet.

@yakmartin5429 4 года назад

Gotta admit it's quite above me, which is my fault, because I don't often enough listen analytically. Rather like a non-meteorologist enjoying beautiful clouds. So at least I'm at the gates, enjoying the more accessible stuff from Meshuggah, Panzerballett, John Scofield, Vince Guaraldi, Keith Jarrett, and finding great stuff hidden in stuff that isn't jazz per se. The Fender Rhodes in Prince's Ballad Of Dorothy Parker and such. What I've learned: Your true joy and infectuous enthusiasm is a great commercial for jazz.

I played guitar with Miles in '86. What struck me most about him was the almost alien nature that he had. I have many stories of course and, in one, he played the single most amazing note I have ever heard. It started out as an "ugly duckling" and in a few seconds, he had turned it into a golden orb of beauty that sailed out into the hall. I was stunned. And that was in the first song of the first gig I did with him.~

I’m a jazz musician who wandered my way into Rick’s videos (because I’m also a child of 90’s alt rock/metal) and I just have to give a shout out to Rick for using his well-subscribed and widely viewed platform to give jazz a voice. Jazz is Black American Music, and it (and of course it’s mother, the blues) has played a wider influence on the music world than most Americans realize. I owe these guys everything. And “Relaxin’” was really the album that got me into Miles and Red Garland. ... Anyhow, THANK YOU RICK for using your platform to hip the world to jazz!!

@spb7883 3 года назад

I’m a guitarist with a master’s degree in jazz history. I enjoy *many* of your videos, but I’m especially grateful for this one. A few points if I may: (1) This is a great recording for teaching jazz. Among other reasons, this is because here we have an example of the rhythm section dropping out at various points in the tune, and in various combinations. So, whoever is soloing *really* has to know the form of the tune. Miles isn’t always relying on Red Garland to supply chord changes, for example. That’s important to consider. (2) This is also a great example of how jazz musicians *listen* , not only to each other in a performance, but when they practice. Jazz musicians traditionally get ideas from other musicians who play different instruments. Check out that line Miles plays at 14:36. He’s quoting a Klosé saxophone exercise that Bird used to quote in his improvisations. Whether Miles was quoting Klosé or alluding to Bird, the point is that he was not playing a melody designed for his instrument. This is a particularly important lesson, especially for us guitarists who can frequently be myopic in that we only listen to other guitarists. (3) That final chord is a great one! It also makes sense as the upper structure of a Gb7#9, which makes me wonder if Pat Martino was alluding to it when he finishes his 1970 recording of this tune with a Bb7#9. Thank you for this and all you do. Steve Beck

@spb7883 3 года назад

@youtube youtube Regarding jazz pianists, that’s a broad topic. I would say in general you have to remember the importance of community. Nobody really “taught” themselves how to improvise - a lot of people exchanged ideas early on. I would suggest finding someone who can play and is willing to show you some things. If that’s not feasible, I would learn to read music on guitar, transcribe solos, listen to records.

I have two stories regarding Miles. 1) I used to work with a guy who had eclectic musical tastes. He had two posters on the wall in his office - one was of Geddy Lee of Rush, the other was Miles. I was fascinated by his appreciation of different art forms. 2) This one's really weird. I met a retired FBI agent several years ago who had been with the Bureau in the late 1950s through the 1960s. The whole civil rights thing was going on at the time with MLK and all the marches. Well, J. Edgar Hoover hated Martin and swore that he was a communist. So Hoover actually had different agents assigned to follow various key black people because of his obsession. Paul Robeson, Harry Belafonte, these were outspoken performers who apparently didn't know their place according to Hoover, so he had them followed. Somehow he got it in his head that Miles could have "uppity n------" leanings, too, which is where the agent I met came in. He said he was assigned to follow Miles for two solid years and never saw any suspicious activity. But he did get to attend a lot of concerts so he said that was quite a bonus!

It is said that Bird had a breakthrough one day while playing live on the tune Cherokee. During this performance he had an Epiphany out of which was born bebop. I would love to have Rick Beato explain what that Epiphany was.

Yup, that'd be awesome.

@miketempero6073 4 года назад

How about it Rick?

@sepulveda67 4 года назад

According to Bird, he always had this sound in his head though he never realized it through his horn. The "epiphany" was that he used the higher extension of a chord, 7th, 9th, 13th, as a pivot to the proceeding chord. Though it may have been a realization, I'm sure Parker had to hit the wood shed to fully incorporate and maneuver through the difficult changes at 300 bpm. It didn't hit him and presto there it was, he had to work to get to it. As for Bebop being born, it came from the demise of big bands just after WW2. There were economic factors that could not support a traveling band of up to 20 musicians. Also, the big band was a bit restrictive when it came to each musician having a moment of self-expression. The smaller quartet/quintet was ideal for individualism and improvisation, and it was in the late night hours of small clubs on 52 street in New York where it came about.

@user-eu3mn6ss5l 4 года назад

@@sepulveda67 Great info - thanks! I definitely hear the connection between Benny Goodman/Charlie Christian and the bebop that came after, and it's true that the big swing band stuff had much simpler chord progressions. I still love the big band stuff - Charlie Christian was a big eye opener for me when I was tracing back the roots of guitar solos. He was amazing for his time. I'm oversharing, probably. Sorry.

the planet and the inhabitants need this. some of the most rhythmic, melodic, and improvisational music ever recorded. this art form must be preserved. you may be uniquely qualified to teach this, since you can play all the instruments - aside from horns, I think. not just your intimate knowledge of the tunes, but you seem to adore it and have, and convey, fun with it. jazz can be hard to understand because the players are so good and play at such ridiculous tempos, the uneducated listener needs help, like this, to get it.

Even so called smooth jazz/elevator jazz has superior musicians. Its about making a living to many. Take George Benson great guitarist got swallowed by the smooth/elevator jazz syndrome. Keep an ear on the individuals/instruments who play in a band. Gives a clear understanding on how it becomes a cohesive sound. To teach ones self to listen to jazz makes one think outside the box in life. Try some classical like Cloude Debussy . It's a journey through sound.
