I play jazz guitar, though I would call myself a keen amateur, rather than a professional. These videos are a work in progress, but there are many more to come - so please subscribe and let me know what you'd like to see in the comments!
Bad art is good for you. Here's why.
Bad art is great, and it's awesome and you should listen to it and watch it and engage with it. At least a little bit. It'll make you a better art lover. I think so anyway.

How Joshua Redman made a modern classic (from a Monk classic)

Joshua Redman recorded "Jazz Crimes" in 2003, a pretty significant departure from the work that made him famous through the 1990s. Was he committing a crime against jazz, as was implied in the title? Or was he just making rad music that everyone dug? Either way, the history of the song is interesting. Sorry for going a bit on this one - went on a bit more than I meant to.

My favourite version is Chet Baker trio on the album Candy. Check it out! There's a video recording of the session on UA-cam.
Iscritto ora al tuo canale fratello, you too of you want🎷💪
Marsalis is right
I'm disappointed you didn't bring up the most important element of this song: that iconic guitar riff and the timber of the notes. THAT, more than anything, is what sells the song, and it would appear that is all John Barry's doing, as evidenced by he being the one that brought in his friend Vic Flick to play guitar, for a big band arrangement, no less, which was very rare at the time.
I thought there was going to be a real interview between them.
Really interesting thx @Tim Beau Bennett. This is still missing in your history: In order to make money on the (instrumental) soundtrack as well, lyrics were added and some of the 'songs' were released simultanously with the movie. The lyrics that end with 'I could kiss the ground on Green Dolphin Street' are responsible for the title 'On' Green Dolphin Street while the movie lacked the word on. Hilarious, because Green Dolphin Street is the seastreet around New Zealand. (You'll have to dive deep to kiss the ground) And then the keys which are always mentioned on sessions as the original: Eb (Miles) or C (Evans). In the movie it's the key of G (as instrumental) First recording uses several keys to fit the singer.
Great overview of the song and its various incarnations. Thanks much!
What do you mean, “It doesn’t matter…”. This statement is just as jive as Miles stealing Chuck’s tune. What you’re saying is that you endorse the theft of someone’s intellectual property and hence their money. Publishing matters. In fact that’s where most musicians make their money in terms of their careers. Miles got all the royalties on the tune that a player like Chuck rightfully was entitled to. That’s called theft!
Ah yes, the english rapper MF doom
Might wanna check number of choruses
Mr Henderson is possibly my favorite. Thanks for your work.
Now I understand why Barry claimed that he actually wrote the thing. The basic melody came from Norman, but everything that makes it interesting came from Barry. As I see it, Norman just should have thanked Barry for all the money he had earned over the decades.
My trumpet player brought this to our jam last winter. It's such a happy song! I call it every week!
Nardis, by the artist working the hardest don't discard this video, it's super nice
To anyone who wants to get a taste of the best Mobley, listen to _Up A Step_ from his _No Room For Squares_ album.
Mike Stern cop the intro from Bill Evans. This is the only recording of that intro with Bill Evans Trio live.
The clip of Miles Davis at the beginning is "So What", not "Solar"
Joe Henderson was a saxophonist equal to or superior to John Coltrane o Sonny Rollins
Wonderful musician.Underated is even an understatement 😬
the solo piano version is bill evans in its pure art form
Yes, Miles was guilty of this more than once in his career...and he also was the victim of same more than once in his career as well (usually by none other by Charlie Parker, who tended to have "head arrangements" of his compositions and his producers/record label owners would, as Parker himself said, "...name those things after I leave the studio.")😊 This is an old, old, OLD problem -- Louis Armstrong famously stated that he actually wrote Muskrat Ramble, and Kid Ory named it...but Ory received the sole writing credit. The year this occurred: 1926. So...
According to Dave Brubeck, Paul Desmond had two themes (both which appear in the head, BTW) and didn't know what to do with them! So Dave just suggested that Paul put one after the other, and voila! Oh, one other thing regarding the title: unknown if it was named because of the time signature, or as Paul put it, "it was meant to be a Joe Morello [drum] solo", so therefore Paul, of course, would be "taking five", or even because the single 45 version (which Columbia Records still disavows as existing!) consists of the fifth attempt at recording the composition. (The album version, which now gets the majority of the airplay these days, is an edit of two different takes spliced together -- sharp ears can notice the edit just before Joe's solo begins.)
Here's the thing about Blue In Green I find interesting: Miles never debated or disavowed Bill's account of how it was composed. Furthermore, even though it is only credited to Miles on KOB, Bill saw fit to co-credit both of them on all of his subsequent trio albums, and not once did Miles ever challenge this (lawsuits, etc.) Which on Miles' part was probably a backhanded acknowledging of Bill's role in writing Blue In Green, while although Bill was always somewhat of a quiet and go-with-the-flow kind of guy, he could on occasion also be somewhat what we now refer to as passively aggressively snarky. Which I just find hilarious. (And, they maintained a personal friendship that lasted until Bill's tragic death in 1980.)

23:00 its actually one of the songs that im going to preform on my drum recital next week lol
when i first started listening to jazz, I couldn't tell the melody from the solos, or what instruments were what, and many other things - there are some basic 'rules' or guidelines that definitely help knowing
nice video, and really enjoy your channel. Would enjoy videos that 'correct' other real book sheets or even compare them to recordings etc.. Great short.
Aahhhhh
I think things like this are great for moving music conversations forward. You can't have everyone agreeing and being yes people. That moves nothing. It's challenging to talk to people who have different views to you... on anything! People get possessive and fixed on their view being the right one and then the talk becomes about who's right and who's wrong and then you're in a never-ending loop. It's interesting to see how people view certain topics, especially music. At the end of the day, music doesn't give a shit what we all think about it. It's gonna carry on doing its thing while we all argue about it 😄
I wonder why they used the concert C version of the melody rather than starting it on the D that a trumpet player would play...? Any insight?
Love your explorations. Thank YOU very much!
I recently got into vinyl (after not having a turntable since childhood) and one of the first albums I bought was Soul Station. I do think it is a perfect album. Mobley was so good. It’s too bad we have to compare him to innovators. Another great saxophonist to do a video on: Lucky Thompson! A great tenor and soprano saxophone player.
Niiiice! 🔥👍

idgaf about nostalgia, i listen to jazz music and good instrument make ears feel good
Lol same I'm 17 and still kinda young and I don't feel nostalgic whatsoever.
Remember that, following Hank Mobley and preceding Wayne Shorter, George Coleman served duty for about one year (1963 - 1964) in the Miles quintet. Coleman, who is still present, is a musician who has been severely overlooked in the hierarchy of jazz saxophone . By the way, following the departure of Coleman and before Shorter, saxophonist Sam Rivers was briefly a member of the Miles quintet. Great work Tim. I always enjoy your presentations on this channel...God bless 😀
Hank Mobley was immensely talented. I knew him in the 80's during his lean times but he wasn't using H at that time only drinking. His landlady, Annette made sure he was pretty stable though. He regularly sat in at Natalie's on 40th and Market. You could get some amazing live music just hanging out back then. I didn't hear his full catalog till many years following his death. It made me sad that I missed learning more from him.💙
Hank Mobley is completely overlooked, because he appears on the scene unfortunately when there was the incredible john Coltrane. Also sonny rollins, joe Henderson, Booker ervin, Wayne shorter, just to mention a few incredible saxophonist. He was a great saxophonist who had a smooth as silky sound, and had a tremendous molodic sense and was a prolific composer. One of my all time favorite musicians. A true hard bop Master.
I played it from new real book so never noticed this. :D
Ok let's start stealing things from others. After all life is dynamic innit?
rufus harley's "Crack" is legit good jazz/funk. Also some uilleann pipers approach a jazzy feel, like Davey Spillane and John McSherry. You need to check out "The Olllam"
Thanks for this presentation. I listen to Hank every day. Your perspective is valued so much! It's hard to believe that he experienced homelessness. I love Hank and everything he did.
I don't play any instrument, but since 2000 I love fusion. p2p ilegal music server before napster have been recognize, I found Mahavishnu, weather report, Tsquare and the greatest Casiopea😅
What's ur fave song from Casiopea?
Soul Station is arguably the most listenable jazz album of that era. The reason why critics use terms like “middleweight champion” is because jazz is often times more about the narrative than the music itself. You never hear anyone say they love listening to late era Coltrane yet blowing the horn to bits is “creative”. Meanwhile music that people can groove to is considered mundane by jazz academia. In secret I bet the jazz critics would rather listen to Soul Station.
Barry should have been given joint credit
The Kenny G version uses the real book version tho and he saved jazz
