inspired by smeth's pick single thread, here are some lovely clips.
you tube scares me.
amazing footage.

eric doplhy:

245

god bless the child:

with the john coltrane quartet: impressions

art ensemble of chicago:
sigh.

with djembe players

burundi part 2

funky aeco (maybe)

I watched the first one so far... I wonder how I'd classify that. It's a tough call. If only I had some kind of clue as to the genre of the piece.

Dolphy is a chef of sound.

roachboy · 06-06-2007, 09:17 AM

245 isnt a piece i know terribly well, but it was one that dolphy apparently played alot on his last european tour. not sure about the genre, nor about how much it matters (the last bit is just an editorial from me)...

i put together a couple of sequences of more experimental jazz playing that i both really like and did not expect to find on youtube. but i was wrong.

this seems like a space that would be good for sonic archaeology expeditions.
conducting these expeditions is my new plan.
but it'd be better if lots of people did them and posted their findings.

aberkok · 06-06-2007, 09:32 AM

I was just joking about the big signs that said "JAZZ" on them in the first vid.

roachboy · 06-06-2007, 11:36 AM

ah--it was early in the morning then, sir.
my brain was not yet firing on many cylinders.
i dont know if its any different now, but at least it's later in the day.

Very cool, but my dog doesn't appear to comprehend jazz.

Keep them coming.

Supple Cow · 06-09-2007, 12:52 PM

I went on a different kind of dig: for one of my favorite ballads played by a few different souls...

I Remember Clifford (Lee Morgan)

I Remember Clifford (Arturo Sandoval on trumpet)

I Remember Clifford (Arturo Sandoval on flugelhorn)

I Remember Clifford (Freddie Hubbard)

I actually played this with my combo of high school buddies at my brother's wedding for their first dance. I played it on the flugelhorn (badly) with lots of schmaltz, appropriate for a wedding. I mostly included Arturo Sandoval's two versions here to highlight the trumpet/flug difference... not sure why else. I don't like his playing too much.

Enjoy!

Just some more trumpet treasures:

Stablemates (Freddie Hubbard)

Moanin' (Freddie Hubbard & Art Blakey)
Warning: Sadly, this one ends before the bass solo...

Ready for Freddie (Freddie Hubbard)
Warning: Even more sadly, the piano solo cuts off, but the rhythm section really kills before that happens!

aberkok · 06-09-2007, 02:10 PM

Supple, I didn't know you were such a jazz fan. Awesome.

Lee Morgan is such a motherfucker.

My favorite trumpet player, and of the cornet alternatively, was Louis Armstrong. In fact, he was one of my favorite people ever to have walked this green earth. Why that is should be evident in these clips.

C'est Si Bon

A Rhapsody in Black and Blue

Here's a novelty...Louis and Johnny Cash

Indiana

I'll Be Glad When You're Dead You Rascal You (1932 Betty Boop cartoon w/ Louis - awesome!)

oh rb, you're right....this is highly addictive

I can't believe I found this!!
Louis and Jack Teagarden singing Rocking Chair....sweet.

I Cover the Waterfront

I Get Ideas

I better stop here...this could go on forever.
