I play with my eyes wide open as wide as possible. Not on purpose though! 😂

Yeah, I'm usually not a big fan of guitars in jazz, but I somehow dig this one's sound very much.

@linterna guitar :\ that's just my preference which i can't do anything about, guitar is my first instrument actually, but unfortunately i'm not into it in jazz (specifically electric, i love acoustics in gypsy and bossa nova) for some reason, even tho i like it in other ganres, no need to be a dick about it

+John Dough yep is really a shame his name isnt even on the list up there

Yesss, the bass is such an essential part, yet goes unrecognized and unloved so much of the time

Paul Gill on bass - one of the best!

Thought the same ! We can't blame him though ;)

I didn't notice, I was looking at the waitress.

XD XD He can´t believe what he see

Matt Love no not at all I got distracted too ..but luckily recovered in time to really love Joel's solo ...wow

I think she was the same waitress as when we were there. Not hard to look at!

A.A. Cruz it's a 12 bar blues in F

His wife probably did

Yeah 6:13, saxy !

+Victor Jose Martinez def one of the most expressive dudes out there!

What's his name?

Smalls Jazz Club, New York

It's a Comins GCS-1

8:33

Everyone mentioned about the drummer but the real hero is actually the bassist

i know this is old but it looks like he is playing a Taylor T3

Comins GCS-ES-1

Yeah, thinking the same here

whitehill91 jajajja yeah

Pau*

Are you sure it wasn't intentional ?

A shure 57 on the piano and a sennheiser gun mic next to the sax

ah pro stuff. cool thanks.

Had to be more than just those 2 mics because you have a pretty good stereo image with the guitar and drums, and they all sound like they are playing behind me. ;)

Comins GCS-1ES I think

Maybe you wear your headphones the wrong way? 🤔

Paul Gill

BryceBassCovers check the comment above yours

BryceBassCovers i guess you emant guitar but oh well

Jorge Daniel Oh okay, thanks

BryceBassCovers F blues

+BryceBassCovers The is an F Blues with a few turn arounds added for color

I guess you can say it was "moved" by the music :D

Yo I'm showing up 4 years late but they improvised everything. Theres probably bits and pieces of random songs they like in there but it's all original my lad

@@eliiii1953 I'm showing up 2 weeks late but it's just a blues man

contactkeithstack its jaaaazz baby

Igor Beduin

+contactkeithstack If you re-arrange them to groups of descending and ascending notes, they look like this: a: A,Bb,C,Db - 3,4,5,6b d: C,B,G, - 5,5b,2 d: Bb,Ab,Eb - 4,2b,7b d: Gb,F,Db - 2b,1,6b a: Ab,F,G - 2b,1,2 The notes that sound funny are the ones that are out of the blues scale, in the F-natural scale. It makes it sound like he's playing above key almost. It's a dissonant set based on the Phrygian dominant Scale (with a variation 5b,) rather than blues. (i.e 1 2b 3 4 5 6b 7b). He plays it over an (I'm simplifying the changes) Fmaj7 to F(aug) (F,A,C#) and F7+5. There's something similar at 7:37.

Phrygian dominant is a nice idea, I think it can sound great in a blues, but tends to fit more naturally than this line imho, albeit with a 'Gypsy' sound to it. He's got some b3s you've written as b2s, I think it's more a case of playing maj/min blues scale with some flattened 6s and flat 9s. Or am I wrong and it's common to flatten the 3rd of Phrygian dominant and still regard it as that? I usually don't like 'too many notes' in a blues but Joel being the master that he is doesn't over do it and sounds great of course. Igor I agree about scales, and patterns etc, etc, but it's sure fun to try to figure out sometimes..! (And helps me to internalize something cool).

I also agree with +mark sepinuck below, he does sound great on a Merlot!

why ahah?

LoL what you expect him to do 🤣

What, no? This is a 12 bar

@@guidemeChrist Parker's Mood

Comedy

Nice pentatonics work!

Hes behind the sax

Reptilian.

Pentatonic base, but with lots of modal runs and arpeggios, dorian, mixolydian etc

All of them

+vecernicek2 ?

+Murilo 'morello' (Cunha) Yep, he's a very talented guitarist, he definitely knows a thing or two about playing guitar, but he needs to turn the ego down. The point of comping is to let the soloist stand out and open up the possibilities for him. I don't think it happens here. I don't think he leaves enough space for the solo. I think the plays way too much and restricts the soloist. Maybe this isn't representative of his usual playing, I was solely referring to this video.

+vecernicek2 I see no problem here and the guy definitely now more than a thing or 2.

+Murilo 'morello' (Cunha) Thing or two was meant in a good way. I have no problem with you feeling it differently.

+vecernicek2 about the comping, in that super informal jam, where the owner of the bar is playing till i understood, i think the oposite, at the end of the sax solo, the guitar dude brings it, and pushes the band to the cuminant point where frahm and all wanted to go ending a solo. yeah you have no problem with me, your problem is problem with the guitarplayer in the video, that kicked all the asses playing one of the btfl solos we ever heard.
