For the first half of the 20th century, jazz was the king of music! But even if jazz has since been dethroned by modern styles of music like rock, pop and hip hop, jazz still serves as a vast source of inspiration for contemporary artists.

@@sschmidtevalue I used to despise them, and then they became my favourite band. Life's funny in that way. I get why people might find Thom Yorke's voice off putting and that could be a big reason why you wouldn't enjoy them. I'd say try 'Faust Arp', 'Scatterbrain', 'Paranoid Android', 'How to disappear completely' 'Jigsaw falling into place', 'Everything in it's right place' ... that might be a weird mix that gives you a pretty good impression of what they do and if that's not for you, then you gave it a shot.

Another obvious example is Steely Dan. “Gaucho” took the vamp from Keith Jarrett’s “Long As You Know You’re Living Yours” so blatantly that they eventually were forced to credit him as co-composer. “Rikki Don’t Lose That Number” is built on the bassline from Horace Silver’s “Song For My Father”, and amongst others, there’s also “Parker’s Band”, an explicit homage to Charlie Parker. Also, on the subject of “Pyramid Song”: I strongly suspect that it influenced the Esbjorn Svensson Trio’s “Seven Days Of Falling”, demonstrating how influence can often be a two-way process.

Various Jimi Hendrix songs have a jazz "slant." "Up From the Skies" and "Rainy Day, Dream Away" are probably the most obvious. A lot of the most skilled rock drummers of the 1960s were basically really loud jazz drummers, like Mitch Mitchell of the Hendrix Experience and Bill Ward of Black Sabbath. Paul Simon's "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" is really a jazz tune disguised as a pop tune with "fancy" chords. The jazz influence on the Police comes via Sting and Andy Summers, and "Murder by Numbers" is probably the most overtly "jazzy" Police song.

But wait... In “All Blues”, the D7#9 chord is simply a dominant V chord, whereas in “Breathe”, it’s part of a much more unusual kind of backdoor resolution. I think it’s sort of misleading to present things in absolute terms rather than in relative, or functional terms. The keys are different so the two D7#9 have completely different functions.
@DavidBennettPiano
@DavidBennettPiano 3 жыл бұрын

@@DavidBennettPiano But “Breathe” resolves to Em, while “All Blues” resolves to G. I agree the chords are similar in that they’re respectively relative minor/major chords, but the keys of the songs are still different, don’t you agree? In “All Blues”’s case, you have a I - V - I, whereas in “Breathe”’s, you have a III - bVII - i. I agree the chord itself, not its function, might be the inspiration, but that chord, the “Hendrix chord”, isn’t that rare in rock music; even AC/DC uses it in “Shoot to Thrill”... It’s not a very jazzy chord like a 6/9 or a #11 might be. What’s your take on this?

Music theorist Ari Shagal has argued that the most salient link between modern pop songwriting and the great American songbook is the work of Laura Nyro. Nyro wrote jazz and show tune influenced songs using jazz musicians from her first LP in 1966 as a teenager and never stopped. Miles Davis was a big fan, and many hip hop artists have sampled her, such as Kanye and J Dilla. She was an influence on Steely Dan and Joni Mitchell and scores of others. Nyro's Coffee Morning (1967) is influenced by Bill Evans Peace Piece. Nyro loved Miles Coltrane, Billie Holiday and Debussy. Her I am the Blues is the best jazz blues song you may ever hear (1976), with Randy Brecker. Buy and Sell (1967), a torch song about drugs and prostitution. Jazz legend Zoot Sims plays on Lonely Women (1968).

Yes, "Jazz" was the popular music of the early 20th century, but that jazz was pretty different from the jazz of the 1950s and later. Jazz changed over time.

In fact most of what David refers to as "Jazz" is not Jazz at all, but pop songs. Very well written pop songs, but pop songs all the same. Jerome Kern hated jazz… (and just to eternally irk him in his grave, the only people that play his tunes today are Jazz musicians ...)

I think, many Paul's bass parts sounds like a "walking bass" ("All My Loving" as an example), that might to be inspiring by jazz too. P.S. Big hi from Russia, David!

One artist whose jazz influences always strike me is Japanese pop/rock artist Sheena Ringo. Her recent music and some of her 00’s music takes jazz stylings and instrumentation’s and skews them around in fascinating and thought provoking ways. Cool stuff that fits right in with this crowd.

David has a true gift... if I've ever seen one! I have "a" (many) major learning disabilities, especially in regards to music theory. Yet somehow this video miraculously seeped into my brain and was absorbed and understood! If I could put it into vision terms...It was as if I were legally blind and had not been able to see well enough to recognize a single face for 40 years. Then all of a sudden David shows up, and somehow I can see the color of my child's eyes and hair. And realize that they have freckles too! Thank God for this incredible gift this lesson has given me!

Thats true! Fun fact, George is actually saying ‘you’ll never know how much I reallyyy caaare’. The Liverpool accent makes it so the ‘ah’ sound becomes more like ‘euh’. Like how Paul rhymes ‘I’d have never been AWARE/but as it is I’ll dream of HER tonight’ on I’ve Just Seen a Face.

You can hear Pink Floyd's jazz influence simply in how they play. I re-listened to Dark Side of the Moon recently with headphones for the first time and noticed how David Gilmour and particularly Richard Wright comp in a most jazzy way. My favourite jazz influenced hip-hop was a Canadian group from back in the 90's, The Dream Warriors. Their most famous song was probably "My Definition of a Bombastic Jazz Style," which I think was based on a sample from a Quincy Jones song.

The “verse” didn’t originate in jazz. Classical music (opera) has been doing it almost since it’s beginning. It was called Recitativo, with free rhythm. Later on it was replaced by accompagnato, where instead of being accompanied by a cembalo the whole orchestra accompanies the voice.
