Fantastic! I've been waiting for an interview like this for quite some time, so I was pleased to find this video. Kreisberg gives a great interview, and I look forward to seeing some more down the road. Jazz Times? Downbeat? How about a more formal interview with 60 minutes? Letterman, perhaps? He's worthy of them all and more.
Actually, I find this to be a very good interview. English is a second language for the journalist but he still gets the nuances of JK's humour (the "dentist" career... "still time!") he give JK lots of time to delineate his answers and asks a wide range of topics. He doesn't ask what gear JK has but, rather, what results he's trying to get with them -forces JK to answer in a more philosophical way. well done, all.
the english language has a lot of subtle idioms and expressions (just like any other language) and it seems like the interviewer doesnt react to many expressions jon uses jokingly, it's not that his nation lacks humor, its just sometimes hard to capture the nuances of english when it's not your native language
I think that´s not the way a Jazz player thinks... maybe is a joke about that guitar is so popular, nobody will know which guitar is if he hides de the brand... could be it? or you´re still mad about it.. jeje...
Wow, thank you for the info, that's actually pretty smart, I hate the sound of ticking on the pickup too, but never thought about that. I have a p90 though, its gonna look weird :)
Its to prevent the pick from ticking on the pickup. I know because Kurt Rosenwinkel does the same, we asked him at a masterclass in Montreal a few years ago.
It's not that he didn't get them ,it's that the jokes where not funny.Believe me we may have thousands of problems as a nation but humor isn't one of them. Anyway, i love kriesberg i just wanted to clear this out.
no no, not at all. He explains his amp & pedal set-up etc. & his craft as an artist maybe he didn't get a Gibson endorsement, & if he talks about it too much, it will be used as an online ad. You can see the name clearly, but the ES175 is the classic that almost all jazz greats began playing: wes montgomery, kenny burrell, pat metheny, jim hall, joe pass, & many others I can't recall right now.
from 17:33 - every musician needs to hear and live that. Thanks Jonathan.

love this cat. Saw him in NYC on a wednesday with six people in the audience, and he blew us all away... just another night of work ...
Work Ethics is very common in jazz guys.
He was going to say how he got the guitar, and this bozo interrupted him
Holdsworth, VanHalen, Coltrane...
Poor guy didn't get any of the jokes.
He has a very smart sense of humor.

His connection with Greek music is interesting. Here is another jazz-trained guitarist playing a Greek tune: ua-cam.com/video/zYkWuz8DFbs/v-deo.html

I don't think the interviewer got the dentist joke,,
so he won't admit that he has an es175 because he doesnt want any jazz guitarists to achieve his "unique" sound?
no no, not at all. He explains his amp & pedal set-up etc. & his craft as an artist
