I love it that he's playing it on a Fender "Jaguar" guitar and Fender amp, like he's going to bust out some surf riffs.

That's what was available to him. Provided by the halfway house probably. He never played that kind of guitar again.

@rayjr62 - well, I am biased but I suspect you are right about that. I studied with Joe. When I first went back to Jr College, I wanted to expand out of R & B and Rock so I called some of the very names of Jazz who were teaching. They all sounded very clinical on the phone and turned me off. Then I worked up the courage to call Joe and he just said "what are ya doing Saturday and oh, by the the way, I don't teach reading". It was his warmth that enabled him to out-swing his contemporaries IMO!

Joe was coming out of rehab at this point and didn't own an archtop.

great picking technique ... his right hand is really cooking ... looks relaxed but very precise, not really anchoring per se, possibly just lightly brushing against the body of the guitar ... great lines also of course

Kind of criminal that they don't include the names of the musicians ever.I know that the bassist is the great Gary Peacock playing the same bass as he does today.Anyone know the year? I'm guessing late early 60's.

which size of strings he used does anybody know in this video

@williamsanders 5 жыл бұрын

Probably the stock strings that came with the Jaguar, which were 0.013.

I think Joe is on rhythm circuit (hard to see) and he keeps adjusting the lower volume which would be not on. Sounds like he even has rhythm circuit tone down more also. He might not even known how to use it or just has ocd volume knob thing going on.

@rayjr62 5 жыл бұрын

LMAO. Were you even born when this was video taped? LOL. I bet Joe was playing gigs before you were even a developed seed in your daddy's nut sack. Yet you insinuate that Joe might not even known how to use own gear. Man, you know-it-alls really crack me up with your b.s..

@@rayjr62 Before I spoke, I thought it is possible (not sure of the liklihood) that Joe didn't play a Jazzmaster before the Jag and didn't have the controls down to muscle memory yet. Library of Congress has this episode tabbed as 62, the year the Jag came out and the controls of the JM and Jag would have been odd back then probably. Then after looking at a different video of Joe playing the jag on Sound of Synanon (64), he is on the Rhythm circuit and he still goes for the volume control. So, one can assume that by 64, he definitely knew the controls and that would mean that his hand goes to that position as a resting place...a part of his style, although I don't know enough about his playing to know if this is so. Anyways, what he is doing in the earlier video is consistent with what he was doing a year later and that means that you can rule out that he didn't know the controls. Also, a person doesn't need to be born during an era of a video to comment on it or have an opinion. That isn't relevant and you don't need to be a know-it-all to understand context or the controls of a Jag. It sounded to me like someone familiar with Jag controls and scratching his head about what he's seeing...regardless of who is playing.

I love how people always are comparing him to some one else who they think he plays like. Don't waste your time. Joe was and still is the best..or he's still the cat's meow....haha
