This is a genius solo in every way. Timing, phrasing, and expression are perfect.

Seems kind of tame to me. Good solo, but nothing too interesting for me. What do you enjoy about it though? I'm genuinely curious what makes you think it's genius

His time and phrasing first and foremost. Seemingly simple, but try and make it feel that good yourself. Also, his ideas - the way they talk to each other. No wasted notes.

If you don't think this is amazing, have a go yourself !

What a foolish remark! All sports fans criticize the pros, so should they have to be able to play at that level to have your permission to state an opinion? I've been a professional musician for over 35 years and I sure don't need to be able to perform a piece in order to form an idea as to whether I like it or not.

very good transcription, but no Harmonic genius here, just the changes of the tune with standard comping (1-7, 1-7-10 etc), no re harmonisation, no extensions or super structures or harmonic surprises... am I wrong ? like many others, barry is a child of bud powell, who was undoubtedly brilliant himself.

I changed the title accordingly

sorry even the term genius seems exaggerated to me concerning barry harris, who was certainly an excellent be bop pianist, but like many others (there are so many... thousands), I think that if youtube hadn't existed, few pianists would know barry harris (which is my case) except through lee morgan's famous "sidewinder" (it's the only comping by b harris that's included in the real book).... but keep the term of genius if you think so, no problem for me (and one more time thank's for your great work)(@@jjbagg

@@PianoStudioNancy I have to disagree. Perhaps it’s the circles you’re running in, but amongst my peers he’s been highly regarded for decades, long before KZfaq.

😀maybe, but I don't think you were born a few decades ago, based on your photo; As for me, I bought this Lee Morgan record in 1972... I discovered Barry Harris there, while I had already been listening to Bud Powell or Oscar Peterson for years, I bought dozens of LPs afterwards, Hancok arrived, Corea, and many others, I had totally forgotten Barry Harris for a long time... Kind regards@@jjbagg
