Thank you for mentioning the great musicians of Detroit and New Orleans….
Brother, that was soo enlightening ….I pray you continue to be a light on the paths of many….mine included ❤
I'm glad you enjoyed this interview. it was a joy to spend that hour with Mr.Gabriel. Monk
Such a lady
❤
Without a doubt the greatest trombone player I ever heard. Bill was an absolute musical genius, and a fantastic story teller. R.I.P. Bill.
I agree! Thanks for your comment John. Monk
Die WDR Big Band ist einfach großartig!
Saw him w Bet-Car in Stocholm june 5th 1985. A 4 hr breakless gig, midweek, very few patrons.
Grew up around Jack and his son. My folks were also in the Jazz biz in L.A. What a genuine guy and always fun to be around. Rest In Peace Jack.
This was an excellent interview . So many things to think about and explore and not forgetting about the masters of this music and how they developed . I love watching your interviews .I even repeat a few and get some things that I missed the first time . Your work is so important !
We appreciate your positive feedback Hollis. Monk
Jack was an amazing musician and very witty! Not enough of us know who he was and appreciated him.
I think Jack's versatility and extroverted personality actually diminished his legacy as a jazz player. Many people know him first for his Conjunction Junction voice over, his on stage humor second, followed by his trumpet skills. Monk
What a great drummer and wonderful man…. Yes he’s been around the block a few times, a fountain of knowledge 😎
yes thank you - gleem sir
Shout out to Joya.... when she was at the college radio station I called everyday and requested amalgamation 😊
I've been waiting for this one. Nice job Monk!
Thanks! Fred and I had a great time together. He is quite humble considering his accomplishments.
The first intimate interview I've seen with big Ed. Seems like a very nice well spoken man. He didn't play on the Carson show all those years by accident. He's a great musician 🥁
Thanks for the comment. Here is a link to our 1st session, three years previous to Pt. 2 ua-cam.com/video/mKm-nA3Hd7g/v-deo.html
Your work is a national treasure. Gene was a guitar master.
I love this, Tom is a better person than a player and he is a tremendous player🎺🎺
I was in line at Barns and Noble in Phoenix to have Steve sign my video tape of his show shortly after this interview and before his death. Thank you, Steve, for sharing your talent with us. RIP.
That's my uncle
A criminally under-rated drummer and musician. Ed worked for decades playing with the Tonight Show Orchestra. Five nights a week, a different musical artist; reading charts of jazz, rock, folk, country and every genre you could think of. Ed was the definition of a drummer who could cut anything. I took a lesson from him back in the 70's. He spent his time speaking about swing and feel. Just a really beautiful guy.
👏🏿👏🏿
I was in the Dues Band that Phil directed at Berklee. To this day I look back at that time as such a rich and valuable musical experience. Phil could be tough at times but I wouldn’t change a minute of those times. Phil Wilson is a national treasure and responsible for educating so many successful musicians through the decades.
WOW!!! 90 years and The Paesano is still around. #franksantopadre should Interview him soon 😁👍🏻 Watching THE NEXT LINE on The game show as we speak 😛
Thank you for this great interview.Jon Hendricks was really a wise and spritual man and it´s a pleasure to listen to him talk.I can only complain because the world in the new century is not going like he predicted.If things were like he said this would be a wonderful place to leave.
Yes, I recall Jon's predictions and thought for a time that they would become a reality. You might enjoy our first interview, the link is: ua-cam.com/video/eX7sGSgjNXo/v-deo.html
@@filliusjazzarchive Thanks again.In fact I saw the first interview previously and then I saw the second.I did enjoy both a lot!
Yeah, "While We're Young" is a great CD. Love "Bo Diddy" from Tatics. Speak of The Devil is dark and moody slow burn. One of my favorite trios.
Monk, I have commented on this interview several times. But with my particular background, I find new aspects and revelations about Jay and his place in jazz history with repeated listenings. Monk, your restraint as interviewer was so important in allowing Jay to open up in this interview! But let me finally emphasize that Jay’s band of the early 1940s was one of the five greatest jazz orchestras of the classic era; the others being Fletcher Henderson, Duke Ellington, Jimmie Lunceford and Count Basie. And Jay’s band was very important in helping Charlie Parker develop his approach and style.
Much appreciated n.
Cakewalk with Joe Pass, Niels in Italy 1985.
Stellar musician, sweet guy. Great interview!
What an amazing Interview. He is incredible, and so sorry to hear about his troubles that started in 2020 during the pandemic - it just proves that life isn't fair.
Herb was without a doubt my favorite Jazz/Swing guitarst. I listened to TONS of his recordings and saw him live with "The Great Guitars" (with Charlie Byrd, Barney Kessel, Joe Byrd and John Rae). I even found hie phone number later in his life and called him just to say how much I appreciated him & his music!!! Great interview!!
Amazing work, thank you very much for your knowledge, greetings.
Being partially deaf, I found his voice quite difficult to understand perhaps the the microphone may have been better placed
We work very hard at maintaining accurate closed captions on all of our interviews, perhaps you might have better luck if you turned them on and used them to augment what you are hearing.
TRULY TRULY A LEGENDARY MUSICIAN.
Truly wonderful interview. I have shared it to other monster musicians. I went to NORTH TEXAS at the same time as LOU after four years touring with The NORAD "Cavalcade of Music". I was not on the 1 O'clock Lab Band, 2 O'clock my best, but went back to The USAF Academy Band FALCONAIRES. I truly truly appreciate this interview. The Jazz Snob was Lou at that time, pretty funny to hear him say it here. I have kept track of Lou and Tom Malone all my life since North Texas. At 80 now, it is awesome that you have excited me. GOD BLESS
Hello and thanks for your positive comment. I really enjoyed that conversation with Lou as well as this one with Tom Malone. ua-cam.com/video/645yRC0yPng/v-deo.html You might enjoy our podcast, “Jazz Backstory” based on excerpts from these interviews. It is available on major podcast providers. Monk
👍🏾
I agree. There is a part 2 on the channel with Mr. Hendricks, equally thumbs up. You might enjoy our podcast, “Jazz Backstory,” based on excerpts from these interviews (including a few from Jon). It is available on major podcast providers.
Oh wait a minute how u gonna talk about founding fathers of Latin Jazz and just leapfrog over Tito Puente? TP was one of the very first calling his music "Latin Jazz" and one of his worldwide compositions was "Oye Como Va" which he lent to Carlos Santana...
I would of love to meet him but he passed away before I was even born
m.ua-cam.com/video/rn96-UaQWTk/v-deo.html I wouldn’t even know where to begin in pointing out the various references and implications of this documentary. Jay McShNn’s memory is very approximate, and he’s often off by a few years in his recounting. But what a beautiful man to get to know! Jay led, of course, the last of the great black jazz orchestras to come out of Kansas City; a band which introduced Charlie Parker to the world. And then Jay himself, as a pianist, is one of the indisputable giants of jazz. Despite the fact that Jay was a world renowned musician, he was also in many ways a very simple man. And he remained resident in Kansas City, and he gigged locally for much of the year, providing work for many his less renowned friends. I love that this interview includes following Jay in his car, on the streets of KC, as well as following Jay to his little motel room in Lincoln Nebraska. Though history has not quite caught up with this fact yet, between 1940 and 1943, Jay McSann led one of the four or five greatest jazz ensembles in history; right up there with Basie and Ellington. - No kidding! This documentary would have been made in the early 1970s.
Great, thank you!
Thanks Monk!
Obtaining a mastery through the process of apprenticeship is becoming a lost art.
Indeed. Finding a mentor was a large part of many musicians learning process. Our interview with drummer Eddie Locke has additional anecdotes about this form of jazz education.
Whats lost is not just the music but a way of seeing..
Love Herb
Marvelous interview. Carol has such a lovely decorous, intelligent way about her; and of course, it's brought out to the fullest by one of the supreme interviewers, Monk. I love the way they both balanced the general central components of making a documentary with talking about the lady herself...Miss Williams.
I actually had the pleasure of meeting Mary Lou Williams. I was a Junior in college working at our university radio station and was the producer and engineer of a jazz program. The host, Jack McKinney, interviewed Miss Williams and we also played some of her recordings. This was about 1974. I remember her to have been charming and unpretentious, and she certainly did not mince words!!! Anyway, this was such a marvelous conversation with two highly dedicated people in their respective fields. Bravo.
Thank you for the positive feedback Joe. You might enjoy our podcast, “Jazz Backstory,” based on excerpts from these interviews. It is available on major podcast providers. Monk
@@filliusjazzarchive Thank you, Monk. I will watch it. I'm sure that it is fascinating. Keep doing the superb job that you're doing, Monk.
I loved Etta ❤ she would come to our house to rehearse and I never knew she was as world renowned as she is. Her story is phenomenal! She sang with Dorothy Dandridge and her sister. To think she was like an Aunt to me growing up.
Thanks for that wonderful anecdote.
Thankyou for this ..does anyone have the documentary "jazz is my native language"? Thanks
I see a listing at IMDb.
Scott Hamilton! Saw him in Barcelona recently ... . | Meanwhile, who is the Steve Allen of today? Does one even exist?
He was an American treasure. I'm grateful to have been young when there were Steve Allen's on the planet.
Very insightful comments by Evan Christopher, great interview Monk!!
While going through things my father left for me, I found Danny's autograph on the back of a Glen Miller Orchestra concert, July 7, 1971 on the lawn at Siena College. I was only 10 and have never forgotten sitting on the grass listening to the big band with my family as we visited my grandparents in upstate New York. Great interview with great info, thanks for posting.
I listen to him sometimes on WPRB. I always wondered what he looks like. His voice reminds me of an old friend of mine.
