    Joe’s vibrato is amazing. Listening to his vibrato feels like you can go surfing on it. I love it.

    almost nothing better than the sound of a bari, except for 2 or even 3 baris playing together. RIP Joe

    After hearing the magnificent Joe [RIP] and the scholarly Tim, I am propelled to go get me a baritone saxophone - even by any means.
    It's amazing how they can pleasantly"tame" the roaring vixen and yet identifiably retain its bari sound-voice.
    I do adore it; thanks for posting!
    'Tis so amazing!

      I have played them all, soprano, alto, ténor and now baritone. Baritone is the best.

      @@lawrencemuller8972 I envy and compliment you, all at once, on your bari embrace and "conquest".
      I am still to have an actual grasp of the bari which continues to elude me on account of my lack of funds to rent let alone to purchase one.
      Great, Lawrence.

    A deep regret of my own from 40 years ago, when I was listening to Joe at the West End Bar across from Columbia, was not having spoken to him! He was playing Bari & Soprano, and I had no meaningful confidence to speak of…..but I listened as intently as I could at the time.
    Hearing him now, it’s without doubt that his depth & breath of experience and highly cultivated musical nature gave us a yet another Jazz Immortal.

    Joe was always great with Humph in the late 1950's along with Jimmy Skidmore on Tenor & Tony Coe on alto . It was a great band with Mr. " Laidback " Eddie Taylor on drums , particularly at Humph's Club at 100 Oxford Street London .

    I wonder why Tim's keys are so much noisier than Joe's, if it's because he hits them hard or because of the instrument itself. There's the different mouthpiece giving more low-mids to Joe's sound, of course (thus partly masking the mechanical noises) but still there is a huge difference.

    Interesting that a lot of the old school guys like Joe and Nick Brignola(sp) never moved to a low A bari. The best sounding bari I ever played was a Conn made before 1920. Range was Bflat to high Eflat. Ergonomics sucked but sounded fantastic.

    • @lawrencemuller8972
      @lawrencemuller8972 3 роки тому +2

      There are many photos or videos of Nick with an A. But towards the end of his life, you see him using a (Julius Keilwerth) Bflat. Joe, for his part, did not want to use an A. He said they did not sound as well as the Bflats. I play an A and have never played a Bflat, so I cannot judge.

      @@lawrencemuller8972 good point. I did a one week camp at Youngstown State University in Ohio with Nick about 20 years ago. He was preaching the Bflat and with Keilwerth at that time. Also plastic reeds, but that's another conversation. Neat guy.

      The first bari I played back in 8th was a low bflat, quickly changed to a low A Mark VI. I understand what the low Bflat afficiandos are talking about, but for me I need that low A. I've always preferred extended range instruments, though. I even have a low Eflat full boehm clarinet and low C bass clarinet. I am really intrigued by basset clarinets these days haha.
