Me about 16 years :)

I prefer the live version in Paris where Miles leaves Kenny "alone" and where we see him raise the "Kenny" sign. Garret's solo is (for me) historic (I watched several versions of the songs live, and it is the most accomplished Paris solo).

Me too

Yeah, no pressure there!

Kenny Rogers rulez

still THE BEST Version is from Polish Jazz Jamboree...

Imagine the pressure

😅😅😅

Luca Zerbini Totally!!! I started playing sax after listening to it....

I said this when I first heard taking a part from pulp fiction Kenny got mid evil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I concur......Kenny has the Con!!!

You should try to listen to Pharoah Sanders too.

Listen to the version on Miles David Live Around the World.

@@jazzgalaxy6455 9:15

If i recall well Kenny walked out the stage several times and to tell the truth at some point, i even felt like he did not want to play, pretending a glitching mic or what ever the problem was. But Miles knew somehow that night was important for Kenny

Kenny wasn't feeling it. At 1:49 , even Miles encourages him and croaks out, 'It's your night!' over his mic, it's even subbed in French.

@@saxmandiggle1573 You can hear the mic distortions a few times at the beginning, whenever he tried to play something slightly louder. It is subtle, but it is enough to destroy the construction of any solo. That's why he stopped and most likely tried to get it fixed. Miles said that because it didn't seem to be a major problem at the beginning of Garrett's solo, so he encouraged him to continue. What follows is one of the most incredible alto sax solos ever.

You're talking about Miles fucking Davis, a legend.

Miles could do other strange things at the same time, too.

easyguitare crazy! I saw them do this a the JVC festival in Houston and it was just as out of control! I was 18! It changed me

Juan Rivas Paris

@Juan Rivas Hello Juan, yes, that was in Paris

Amazing post, thanks

@@yourpropheticnews7030 Hi Harry, yeah Miles changed me too. A friend during my last year at high school asked me if i liked Jazz and she decided to give me the Kind Of Blue vinyl from her father's collection. Well you know at that time i was much more a Pink Floyd fan or Rainbow and all the Soul Music standards that were played on the radios. Younger I even used to say jazzmen were playing out of tune and i hated it (obviouly i hadn't listened to "the right" jazz as a newbie ...). And then in So What comes the piano solo just after the amazing Cannonball solo, there is Jimmy Cobb playing that amazing cross stick on the snare while the horns are hitting those 2 chords ... i went "woah ... is this music called Jazz ??? IS THIS JAZZ ??? ... i never was the same after listening to that ... and same thing with the two ballads (Sketches Of Spain + Blue In Green) ... OMG

Ya te he dado like teacher

otro like más, amazing

Un like muy amazing

otro like amazing

Otro like super amazing💜

I think Kenny was channeling some John Coltrane that particular evening in Paris! This is my favorite solo of all time!

Goes too listen the live version in Paris where Miles leaves Kenny "alone" and where we see him raise the "Kenny" sign. Garret's solo is (for me) historic (I watched several versions of the songs live, and it is the most accomplished Paris solo)

god ? LOL !!! Miles was an atheist like he said in his autobiographie, like Bird, Mingus and Monk.

@@rinahall Most of us are...but this does something to a person inside

Out of sight

And shuttttt .....

This song is complete Redemption

Maybe not the single best, but certainly THE defining take of Miles Davis' version of this song (they played it regularly and always tried to vary it)

Haaaaa now it’s 2 years ago… I hope you’re alright with it.. These Miles’ tunes of this time are often crazy, angry and kind of destructive sometimes.. It’s hard to stay calm with that, you want to shout with Kenny when he banged the thing

You still playing?

I can hear some of the same fluctuations at 0:55-1:10 -. but that's a bit I've always felt was very moving, the "wet" breathy tone and the bending curves make it sound like someone comforting a sad little child. The interaction with Miles' block chords on the organ and Benny's basslines make it such a distinct moment too

@@louise_rose good point, it's like a gentle touch, announcing that a long journey is about to begin. He is clearly very frustrated with the situation and stops a few times. Then a sequence of once in a life time events take place, like when Miles does not get upset at all and moves near Garrett to lend him the trumpet microphone. The image itself is fantastic, as you've already pointed out. But then something absolutely magical takes place: Garrett's solo is a masterpiece. I keep going back to it and it does not cease to amaze me. It is like everything, literally everything is perfectly placed: pitches, phrases, emotions, energy, intensity. Even Garrett's other fantastic solo (another live version from 1990 that is also amazing) is not "that" perfect. I think the frustration with the microphone created a sort of challenging atmosphere and Garrett's focus and intensity got somewhat enlightened/heightened.

@@andradas9688 Yes, I've been watching/listening to this solo, this take and indeed this entire dvd (probably compiled from at least two gigs in Paris: Miles' cpstume varies a bit between the tracks!) for at least fifteen years, it's one of the peak shows he ever committed to tape, at least during his later years. I feel, too, that "I'm not getting finished with it". The perfection of this take of Human Nature doesn't cease to amaze me - it's as riveting as some live performances by Yes, Chet Baker or Jimi Hendrix. And the sense of being on an inner journey is essential to it.
