Trey Davis this was one of my first transcription projects on sax. (I’m a clarinet player, and I double on jazz ensembles) it was so much fun and worthwhile. Great way to spend my quarantine.
Yeah, I heard this not knowing who was playing (it was in a playlist), and thought,"Huh. Sure sounds like Chet Baker.".... then the sax started playing and I thought "That's GOT to be Desmond", and halfway through, was thinking "but who's that kick-ass drummer??" I usually find this to be a boring tune but there isn't a dull moment here.
Not rare at all in the classic jazz days imo. Any of the legendary groups-Miles davis’ groups, coltrane’s quartet we’re spot on way more often than not

+Robert Winkler , seconded, what amazes me is how he can insert a rock style in this jazz classic and make it fit perfectly with what the musicians are doing. How does he do it?
I was fortunate to meet Chet Baker in Las Vegas at the Four Queens just before he passed. On his breaks he came to talk to our little table of four. We asked for an autograph but he adamantly refused. There was a total of about fifteen people in the audience. He swung the Four Queen’s hand down to the table that night. What a gentle soul, and a class musician. Great band too.
Hay, we would get off of our little gigs and rush down to the Four Queens every Monday night. '85, '86, '87, '88, '89. We saw Mongo Santamaria (Nobody in the audience, just us chickens). Bill Watrous, Jack Sheldon... Many others. Then off to Benny Binion's Horseshoe for the steak, Baked Potato, Salad, Bread and Drink for 99 cents. Them's was the days.
"Las hojas muertas" (título original: "Les feuilles mortes") es una canción francesa de 1945 con letra de Jacques Prévert y música de Joseph Kosma. Fue popularizada por Yves Montand y la música del estribillo se convirtió en un standard jazz, con el título de "Autumn leaves" (Hojas de otoño). Gran parte del atractivo armónico para los músicos de jazz estriba en que las estrofas presentan una típica progresión siguiendo un ciclo de cuartas y el estribillo utiliza una escala húngara menor de manera fluida. "Las Hojas de Otoño" Las hojas que caen, vuelan por la ventana. Las hojas de otoño de rojo y oro. Veo tus labios, los besos de verano, las manos quemadas por el sol que yo solía tomar. Desde que te fuiste los días son largos. Y pronto escucharé la vieja canción de invierno... Pero tú eres lo que más extraño mi vida, cuando las hojas del otoño empiezan a caer. Desde que te fuiste los días son largos y pronto escucharé la vieja canción de invierno. Pero tú eres lo que más extraño mi vida, cuando las hojas del otoño empiezan a caer.
What a tonic this is for me! Normally, I'm listening to Sunday NPR programing. But I'm constantly reminded of the extent of the havoc & chaos that the tumor is trying to wreck on American government. Truly, a sewer with no bottom. This music and all the arts are eternal, and will outlast the scoundrels!

Jazz, with its rich history and vibrant melodies, stands as a true testament to the beauty of human creativity. It is a genre that defies boundaries, fusing various musical influences and cultural expressions into a harmonious tapestry of sound. Jazz appreciation goes beyond mere enjoyment; it involves an immersion into a world of improvisation, syncopation, and emotional storytelling. The intricate interplay between instruments, the expressive solos, and the collective energy of a jazz ensemble create a captivating experience for both the musicians and the audience. From the smoky clubs of New Orleans to the grand stages of international jazz festivals, this art form has transcended time and geography, leaving an indelible mark on the cultural fabric of the world. Jazz appreciation invites us to explore the depths of human expression, to celebrate individuality within the collective, and to experience the pure joy of spontaneous musical creation. It is a genre that constantly evolves, embracing new influences and pushing the boundaries of what is possible. Jazz appreciation is a lifelong journey, a never-ending quest to uncover new rhythms, discover hidden gems, and connect with the universal language of music.
Jazz music is an absolute marvel that never fails to captivate me. The improvisation, the intricate melodies, and the soulful expression take me on a musical journey like no other. The sheer talent and virtuosity of jazz musicians astound me, as they effortlessly navigate complex rhythms and harmonies. Whether it's the joyful swing of an up-tempo tune or the poignant beauty of a slow ballad, jazz always manages to stir my emotions and transport me to another realm. Its timeless appeal and endless creativity continue to inspire and amaze me. Jazz music is a true treasure that deserves endless appreciation.
I have heard hundreds of different "Autumn Leaves" by different musicians and this is for sure and for me one of the best of its recordings. People tend to talk only about the collaboration by Chet and Paul Desmond but I like also Hubert Laws' flute and Bob James' electric piano. Very beautiful and still "modern interpretation" of "Autumn Leaves".
Sergio Larios was my band and music teacher. He was an amazing person and we got to play in many places. He's really well acquainted with Ron Carter. So much so, that he calls him his dad and such, since he was his former student. I've met Ron Carter in person and I've even gotten to perform a happy birthday song for him. It's really great, meeting amazing musicians and performing with them.
You miss ther point. He wass a 'lyrical' trumpeter, and smooth. Miles got in a rut because of his drug-addled brain. Neither were of the technical skill and inventive flar of say Sandoval or Saunders, both of whom were among the greatest in the history of jazz.
"Miss the point"? It;s dummies like you who don't even have a point. Chet was appreciated by his fellow musicians. Better than average, The top guys today leave Chet and Miles w ay behind. You are a mediocre music fan of little to offer where intelligence is concerned.
I think this just may be my most favorite recording of all time. The way the comp section grooves and how they just go in on Chet's second chorus solo. Maaaan.
This is really my cup of tea - an uptempo , interestingly arranged and beautifully performed rendition of a song you've heard a gazillion times ( maybe because it's a classic ?)
You could put lyrics to about anything Paul Desmond ever played.... improvs, no matter the tempo...runs, riffs arpeggios. There is a softness, subtlety, an ethereal understatement about it all.
It's so loose, so 'matter of factual' and yet so lyrical. Awsome band achievement. One of the freshest renditions of one of the most performed jazz standards ever. Superb!

La primera vez a la escuche fue en un restauran, y con buen oído que la vida me dio la conseguí al fin hace unos años y aún la sigo escuchando es una gran oportunidad que nos da la vida al escuchar esto.

Those dudes Rock. Back in the day, I can picture my parents on the ballroom floor swinging and bopping to this one. Very influential to present day pop music. Drummer was on a Roll-- excellent. ❤
I admire a lot of sax players, but for me, enjoyable listening - Paul Desmond, man! It is just a very relaxing style - sit back and have an adult beverage. I like a lot of aggressive players too but I find with Paul - even people that aren't big jazz fans can get into it. And that's not to say that he's playing Jazz for Beginners. It's his personality and humor that come through his instrument. Gone too soon. Reading stories about him and what he wrote himself - too bad he never finished that book. I really love his odd sense of humor. Cover of his Summertime album - all icicles! One of the original "characters" of jazz.
His solo on "A Train" with Brubeck, which is on one of the Columbia collections, is an example of his beautiful melodic phrasing. Technically flawless, playful but also musically sophisticated--the guy was a master. ua-cam.com/video/ybhZO5HvCoA/v-deo.html
In HS my band teacher said I had amazing tone and asked what I did to sound so nice. "I imagine how Paul Desmond would sound playing this and try to sound like him."
Hat off to all the musicians playing on this recording. Bob James' keyboard in particular is mesmerising. This must be the best version I've ever heard of this song.
I have this album in my collection. It’s one of the greatest pieces of jazz music I’ve ever heard. The musicians are out of this world. When I get on the boat late at night, on the quiet waters of the Gulf, the music takes me to another dimension. It’s transformative.
got my introduction to "modern, progressive jazz" listening to Symphony Sid, a well known DJ in Boston in the late 40's and early 50's.the man knew everyone who was in the jazz scene. this set bring back great memories. I was about 10 years old listening to this music. Sid also had a gospel music program on just before he came on with the jazz program. learned to appreciate all kinds of music at a young age.
How many times have I heard this tune by these two artists? Even in life I have many moons ago never do I tier of Authum Leaves...Regardless of the artists...the two here are the tops...
I'm so sick and tired of comparison. Miles was better...bla bla...Clifford Brown blew them both away...bla bla... Dizzy was better. Bla bla bla. Reminds me of today's "shredder ethic" You can measure technique but you cannot measure SOUL! Just immerse yourself in the lyricism of these two phenomenal musicians (not to mention the rhythm section that swings like a mofo) and LOVE IT for what it is...not for what it "could" be "if" someone else played it.
“We would all play like Stan Getz, if we could”. That was John Coltrane’s response to a question about Stan Getz. Can’t we all just get along? I think we can, and what a better platform to do it on than UA-cam. Bee coo.
Comparisons in anything are tough! I'm reminded of Bum Phillip's answer when asked if Earl Campbell was in a class by himself. I dont know if he is but whatever class he's in it ain't gonna take long to call roll!
What a joy to listen to. Thank you for sharing. Steve Gadd steals the show with his energy and artistry. Ron Carter plays with such precision and passion.
While I admire anyone who dares to play jazz, from the beginning to the avante-garde of today, I have always favored the sounds of Chet and Paul, and others like them. The smooth, clean, and clear sounds appeal the most, and I'm a guitar player!
Música bella y excelsa, hace que mi mente y espíritu sean libres........magistral interpretación.......muy agradecido por compartirla. Saludos desde Barrancabermeja, Colombia
I have gone back and forth with this album for decades. In some ways the combination of musicians is just weird and sometimes it is pure genius. Old school cool meets modern polished CTI. And then Paul Desmond!!! Then Gadd!!!
I remember vividly my Tatay who plays as cool as Paul Desmond on the alto sax and even tenor sax. This piece was played by the Romy Posadas Band when they had an 8-year stint at Hyatt Hongkong. They were a sensation then in the 70's. Musicians emulated that group.
It remains a masterly session, enjoyable as we consider the fine musicianship, excellent professional inputs, high standards of production to give us this level of quality, and, such love, devotion, skill, soul...
@@philpryor7524 thank you, enjoy. Now I’m listening Chet Baker and miles Davis. Like to go to Cuba with me wife and in the evening listen to Chet or what ever, a sugar Robaina, some old rum, and look at the sea. Stay cool greetings from Holland
@ Dirk My parents met in Cuba in 1953 at a proper pool party at the Nacional. They came back a year later (same time next year) with the whole famn damily and got engaged. I would like to think that music had something to do with it. Im in the travel industry, and in 2012 i went back to the very spot they met... Havana Club 7 year Anejo on the rocks, good friend, outside at the Nacional on a warm Autumn day...
@@ahzroc1 thanks, me wife and I, go at least 3x a year to Cuba. Just helping them because they are poor. But they are nice. We stayed one time in National. I liked is. Normally we go inside the country where no tourists are. Stay cool, greetings from Holland
Great music. Chet, Steve, Paul, Hubert, Bob, and Ron may have been at the top of their game during that period of their careers. This version of "Autumn Leaves" is done in a swinging and fast flowing jazz. Man, these cats were in another dimension. Sometimes I join the group with my drums (in my home studio) but the master drummer "Mister Steve Gadd" takes off on me with his speed and fantastic variations. And how about that down flow to end the piece, eh?! Gadd and Chet take it home!
They're all so good at what they do. But Steve Gadd just absolutely kills it! I could listen to this on repeat for hours! ...wait i already do. And the flute is so tasteful!

Everyone's like the trumpet/sax are great and I'm sitting here thinking the drumming is out of the world
Sanjak Pitakrat for real. the drummer has the soul of an entire planet.
I swear the snare is perfect. This guy was in his pocketttttttttt the whole song ahhhh.
I immediately loved the drumming but didn't know who it was. When I found out it's Gadd it made perfect sense.
Everyone is complimenting the drumming, What the fuck are you talking about?
@@profd65 Just listen to drum part, you'll understand.
My favorite recording of Autumn Leaves. Huge fan of all of these musicians. The drums give this recording such drive and authority.

Steve Gadd’s impact!🥁🥁🥁
Que musica!!!!!!!¡
Uno de mis favotritos
Mine too!
I often call Autumn Leaves in F minor because of this recording.
It's rare to hear a recording where EVERYONE in the ensemble is so spot on. You can tell they were having a ball doing this.
Yeah, I heard this not knowing who was playing (it was in a playlist), and thought,"Huh. Sure sounds like Chet Baker.".... then the sax started playing and I thought "That's GOT to be Desmond", and halfway through, was thinking "but who's that kick-ass drummer??"

Not that rare
totally not that rare
Just type "Kind of Blue" in the search box.
Not rare at all in the classic jazz days imo. Any of the legendary groups-Miles davis’ groups, coltrane’s quartet we’re spot on way more often than not
I do not care what anybody says about this rendition of Autumn Leaves. My comment is this: This is what jazz is all about. Absolutely beautiful!
yes indeed, Jazzla9. For sure.
The crazy thing is jazz isn't about anyting... It's all about improvised years of studying how not to play it
Yeah... 100 others think so too ;)

Bill Watrous, Jack Sheldon... Many others. Then off to Benny Binion's Horseshoe for the steak, Baked Potato, Salad, Bread and Drink for 99 cents. Them's was the days.
His death was of a misterious nature so it be said so it be written so it be true..Maybe?
Originally available on Chet's 1974 album, "She Was Too Good To Me." An incredible album, start to finish.
This is from ‘74? Has it been remixed?
Yes! One of my favourites of 10 LPs I have of Chet Baker.

I admire a lot of sax players, but for me, enjoyable listening - Paul Desmond, man! It is just a very relaxing style - sit back and have an adult beverage. I like a lot of aggressive players too but I find with Paul - even people that aren't big jazz fans can get into it. And that's not to say that he's playing Jazz for Beginners. It's his personality and humor that come through his instrument. Gone too soon. Reading stories about him and what he wrote himself - too bad he never finished that book. I really love his odd sense of humor. Cover of his Summertime album - all icicles! One of the original "characters" of jazz.
His solo on "A Train" with Brubeck, which is on one of the Columbia collections, is an example of his beautiful melodic phrasing. Technically flawless, playful but also musically sophisticated--the guy was a master.

In HS my band teacher said I had amazing tone and asked what I did to sound so nice. "I imagine how Paul Desmond would sound playing this and try to sound like him."
Hat off to all the musicians playing on this recording. Bob James' keyboard in particular is mesmerising. This must be the best version I've ever heard of this song.
😮wat is dit toch ongelooflijk mooi😊dit is ❤
A classic
wooo!!!! those guys sounded so free in the song. Beautiful
Ron funks it up man
I have this album in my collection. It’s one of the greatest pieces of jazz music I’ve ever heard. The musicians are out of this world. When I get on the boat late at night, on the quiet waters of the Gulf, the music takes me to another dimension. It’s transformative.
got my introduction to "modern, progressive jazz" listening to Symphony Sid, a well known DJ in Boston in the late 40's and early 50's.the man knew everyone who was in the jazz scene. this set bring back great memories. I was about 10 years old listening to this music. Sid also had a gospel music program on just before he came on with the jazz program. learned to appreciate all kinds of music at a young age.

Hi! 😊😊 I played this song with guitar. If you want, you watch it from this link..🎶🎶🍁🍁⚘⚘
Two of the best, swinging yet humble genius improvisers
Steve Gadd is just a legend. Doesnt get better than him... Props to everyone who is a part of this, though!
Magic. Just magic.
Hehe 😼👀
How many times have I heard this tune by these two artists? Even in life I have many moons ago never do I tier of Authum Leaves...Regardless of the artists...the two here are the tops...
I'm so sick and tired of comparison. Miles was better...bla bla...Clifford Brown blew them both away...bla bla... Dizzy was better. Bla bla bla. Reminds me of today's "shredder ethic" You can measure technique but you cannot measure SOUL! Just immerse yourself in the lyricism of these two phenomenal musicians (not to mention the rhythm section that swings like a mofo) and LOVE IT for what it is...not for what it "could" be "if" someone else played it.
“We would all play like Stan Getz, if we could”. That was John Coltrane’s response to a question about Stan Getz. Can’t we all just get along? I think we can, and what a better platform to do it on than UA-cam. Bee coo.
Comparisons in anything are tough! I'm reminded of Bum Phillip's answer when asked if Earl Campbell was in a class by
himself. I dont know if he is but whatever class he's in it ain't gonna take long to call roll!
Brilliantly said mate!!
Amen bro!
Preach 👌
Incredible sound ... Chet Baker and Paul Desmond together. Amazing combination.
Je ne me lasserai jamais d’écouter ce chef d’œuvre si bien interprété
best autumn leaves version. alongside with cannonball's
Ellington, please.
dont forget Joe Pass
Stan Getz's version is also a masterpiece
oh hi o jazz
And bill Evans's
coolest song ever, especially the drums omfg
The DREAM TEAM, absolute amazing, great jazz standard
that harmony was played in God level
@1:43 is the most incredible break I've ever heard. Bass player and drums LOCKED IN, then straight back into a bebop feel
Play it Chet!!!
what a combo of supreme musicians.
Best drummer I ever heard, goodness gracious 🥁💛
What a joy to listen to. Thank you for sharing. Steve Gadd steals the show with his energy and artistry. Ron Carter plays with such precision and passion.
Did it not occur to you that he shouldn't be trying to steal the show?
Steve Gadd great drummer love the sound en timing
While I admire anyone who dares to play jazz, from the beginning to the avante-garde of today, I have always favored the sounds of Chet and Paul, and others like them.
The smooth, clean, and clear sounds appeal the most, and I'm a guitar player!
Outstanding Masters of Swing 😊
Brilliant all around, but that drumming.....words almost can't describe, it's infectious.
What a great line up and performance.
Música bella y excelsa, hace que mi mente y espíritu sean libres........magistral interpretación.......muy agradecido por compartirla. Saludos desde Barrancabermeja, Colombia
The Jazz Giants riffing a song of the ages...many have yet this gig tops all..
Amazing! Chet baker, the biggest one.
I have gone back and forth with this album for decades. In some ways the combination of musicians is just weird and sometimes it is pure genius. Old school cool meets modern polished CTI. And then Paul Desmond!!! Then Gadd!!!
les feuilles d'automne se ramassent à la pelle dans un poème !!! magnifique duo bravo aux 2 musiciens ...quel talent !!!
pardon, Bravo à l'ensemble des musiciens, même si les prestations de Chet et Paul sont époustouflantes, les autres acteurs sont talentueux
Damn how much more monstrous can you get, these players will live forever!
Where's the love for Ron Carter? His backing was solid af
still is
@@rowansmart9104 You know what I mean haha
Ron Carter's on point the entire deal.
Absolutely amazing!
Giants
I remember vividly my Tatay who plays as cool as Paul Desmond on the alto sax and even tenor sax. This piece was played by the Romy Posadas Band when they had an 8-year stint at Hyatt Hongkong. They were a sensation then in the 70's. Musicians emulated that group.
It remains a masterly session, enjoyable as we consider the fine musicianship, excellent professional inputs, high standards of production to give us this level of quality, and, such love, devotion, skill, soul...
That make sense to me stay cool greetings from Holland
@@dirklammertse4174 Best wishes to you, Dirk, as we age and mature in jazz listening and memories..
@@philpryor7524 thank you, enjoy. Now I’m listening Chet Baker and miles Davis. Like to go to Cuba with me wife and in the evening listen to Chet or what ever, a sugar Robaina, some old rum, and look at the sea. Stay cool greetings from Holland
@ Dirk
My parents met in Cuba in 1953 at a proper pool party at the Nacional. They came back a year later (same time next year) with the whole famn damily and got engaged. I would like to think that music had something to do with it.
Im in the travel industry, and in 2012 i went back to the very spot they met... Havana Club 7 year Anejo on the rocks, good friend, outside at the Nacional on a warm Autumn day...
@@ahzroc1 thanks, me wife and I, go at least 3x a year to Cuba. Just helping them because they are poor. But they are nice. We stayed one time in National. I liked is. Normally we go inside the country where no tourists are. Stay cool, greetings from Holland
This just lifts my soul and elevates my day!! A master class in jazz!
Great music. Chet, Steve, Paul, Hubert, Bob, and Ron may have been at the top of their game during that period of their careers. This version of "Autumn Leaves" is done in a swinging and fast flowing jazz. Man, these cats were in another dimension. Sometimes I join the group with my drums (in my home studio) but the master drummer "Mister Steve Gadd" takes off on me with his speed and fantastic variations. And how about that down flow to end the piece, eh?! Gadd and Chet take it home!
They're all so good at what they do. But Steve Gadd just absolutely kills it! I could listen to this on repeat for hours! ...wait i already do. And the flute is so tasteful!
I have been listening to music since the early 60's, & Gadd is my favorite drummer, along with Billy Cobham & Bill Bruford.
Everyone is so pinpoint on point in this recording it blows my mind. I think that is why it is so fun to listen to.
This is tops. Love it when two legends can come together and create.
Wow I have never heard this rhythm section before. Great to hear Steve Gadd with Ron Carter!
