Why is nobody talking about the bassist!? His playing is absolutely out of this world!! Makes me want to quit learning the double bass!! Absolutely fucking incredible!
Never quit- let great playing inspire you- on UA-cam there's a video of branford marsalis's band JVC jazz festival- or maybe Newport-around 1987- check out that bass player he was elegant- smooth and burning at the same time-there's also an excellent upright player who breaks down the chord structures- using smooth voice leading- especially through the 2-5-1 changes-have fun with the ultimate musical crossword puzzle- of course Coltrane's musical ideas-were from another plane 🎵✌️
He plays with Emmett all the time...I like the way this version of Giant Steps is given a bebop sensibility- this makes it fun. Another good piano version is Tete Montoliu...
Bro agreed, it’s interesting to see him playing a Bach trumpet, definitely a difference from his Yamaha 8335. I’ll bet he’s still playing that huge Bach 1 1/2 C on this horn as well, I notice his tone seems a tad brighter on this Bach, with a lot more core. I dig it, I wish I knew what Strad it was, curious as hell.
@@timeisnow4116 Damn, I didn’t know he switched to Bach. Seems like all the big players on both the jazz and legit sides are all playing Yamaha. I agree, he does sound a bit brighter but he’s always still kept the larger mouthpiece setup
Sean Jones is one of those trumpeters of a type that emerge once in a decade. 2010's Sean Jones, 2000's Roy Hargrove, 1990's Terrence Blanchard 1980's Wynton Marsalis 1970's Woody Shaw 1960's Freddie Hubbard 1950's Clifford Brown 1940'S Gillespie 1930's Harry James 1920's Louis Armstrong. There are countless other great players but these seem to have arrived with everything they needed to fly with.
I remember when smoke filled basement jazz rooms had this wonderful energy. Sad most are gone to gentrification and such. Beautiful guys, just beautiful!!!
You haven't been out much, bro. They still exist. This here is in Emmett's apartment and the vibe is different but the same. Just no mothafuckin' smoke (thank goodness).
@@J3unG well yea, I know. Talkn long time ago vibe. I don't smoke I get that. And dont live in the city and the city I live in has atrophied due to gentrification. And yes, not been out very much lately as well.
Outstanding as always. And just apropos of nothing, I realised (very late) that this tune could have been called Giant Tones if Coltrane hadn't been American - not quite the same!
Conte Candoli's (R.I.P.) highest praise for a good solo consisted of only two words: "Too much!" That's all I can say for the gang here, including Sean's tee-shirt: "Too much!!!"
Can someone explain what is going on with the one? Maybe it is something I don’t understand. Sounds like the one is floating? Nothing is more hip than swinging together.
That's not even a fair take when you consider thay Tommy Flanagan was one of the first people outside of Coltrane to navigate these changes. Dude just showed up to the session and had to figure it out with zero prep.
One of the best trumpeters ever...but they did not swing this melody. Dear John must be played slower to really bring out another side of the giant steps changes.. so in this video, they are just playing giant steps with the dear John melody because of the tempo.. just listen to all the originals of Dear John...it's the tempo they chose which brings this other level forward... But these days, everyone is afraid to take giant step changes at the medium swing tempo..
Great musos but all I hear when I hear this piece is just 251 over and over and over and over. I don't get the praise. For me it's one of the worst compositions in jazz lol
Trane wrote Giant Steps really as an exercise more than anything, he was experimenting with the now infamous augmented triad chord changes. I think the choice to use 2-5-1s through the form made sense, given the already crazy nature of the changes. But I agree though, it's definitely not my favorite standard to hear people play (except for Trane himself whose solo is beyond anything human).

The bassist is a badass for sure.
That bass is talking to alien 👽 !!! Walk the talk 😅talk the walk 😅 !!!! I love trumpet 🎺 !!!

trust me, we are!
that bass man has so many chops i walked into my kitchen after watching this and all my tomatoes were diced
Sean’s a superhuman trumpet player. Seriously one of the masters

yah his sound and lines are very clear
@@Davidkaisermusic playing on a Bach 1 1/2 and making it sound like a lead piece lol, nutz, i guess thats what flawless technique will get you.
Absolutely fabulous! Sublime!

How could you choose Freddie over lee Morgan?
Putting Sean jones in the same sentence as Roy, Wynton, Louis, Clifford and Freddie is insane. Mike Rodrigues is literally so much better.
I miss Roy Hargrove!
Miles Davis not being in this conversation whatsoever is laughable
@@Premiocj miles was less of a trumpeter as he was an innovator

Russel amazing how he holds tempo and glue armony !!! ... excellent musicians
Excellent!! Awesome!!! Undeniably the world's BEST BASS PLAYER!!!!!!!
Brilliant!!! This is my favorite jazz standard and Emmet you're killin' it as always.
Nice! I don’t often hear Giant Steps on the trumpet played so well. Bravo!
That bass is talking to alien 👽 !!! Walk the talk 😅talk the walk 😅 !!!! I love trumpet 🎺 !!!
He plays the trumpet as natural as I drink a glass of water.
Holy good god one of the best piano solos ever - band on fire!!!!!!!!!

Holy hell that was fking amazing
Outstanding as always.
And just apropos of nothing, I realised (very late) that this tune could have been called Giant Tones if Coltrane hadn't been American - not quite the same!
Incredible

🔥🔥🔥
le chorus de contrebasse..wahou, respect !
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Legend has it, the bass was seen smoking cigarettes after this performance.
The bassist is leading the band
Giant steps wasn't hard enough but even a trickier variation...? whoooo
This trio and guests have been amazing but can you imagine if they played this one with Ben Eunson? ua-cam.com/video/vJxeQQ_PrHg/v-deo.html
5:00 Adam told me
7:16 emmets face lmao
Nice job gang!!
Ecxelente ¡¡¡
Cookin’ with grease.
Eita porra...
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☝🏾❤💯
Sean is better than Wynton in modern Jazz.
Terrífic Bass solo!
How was the bass recorded?
Ok but what do you guys do for an up tempo number.
Conte Candoli's (R.I.P.) highest praise for a good solo consisted of only two words: "Too much!" That's all I can say for the gang here, including Sean's tee-shirt: "Too much!!!"
giant steps but it's giant steps
The whole balloon would just completely deflate.
Can someone explain what is going on with the one? Maybe it is something I don’t understand. Sounds like the one is floating? Nothing is more hip than swinging together.
it is there, you just have to listen wel. Please let's not accentuate the one, it kills the swing completely
Трубач лютый дядька
kyle poole nice
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is tiny desk concert, but for jazz
My goodness... Makes me want to quit and turn my trumpet into a lamp
I see quadruple now
DEREGULATE TAPIOCA
Ok. That’s scary
Emmet cohen > Tommy Flanagan
That's not even a fair take when you consider thay Tommy Flanagan was one of the first people outside of Coltrane to navigate these changes. Dude just showed up to the session and had to figure it out with zero prep.
Why did you title it Giant Steps instead of giving Freddie his credit for the head?
Oh...I saw it in the final credits. Lol
So hip! Ridiculous playing
Lol I thought this video was speed-up
One of the best trumpeters ever...but they did not swing this melody. Dear John must be played slower to really bring out another side of the giant steps changes.. so in this video, they are just playing giant steps with the dear John melody because of the tempo.. just listen to all the originals of Dear John...it's the tempo they chose which brings this other level forward... But these days, everyone is afraid to take giant step changes at the medium swing tempo..
Poor Sean, he basically had to play over another piano solo that was way too high in the mix. Yikes, he handled that like a champ.
ジャイアントステップをディアジョンって言っちゃうのなんか勘違いしてる気がするwそれだけじゃないでしょう?wコルトレーンの偉業ってwww
Great musos but all I hear when I hear this piece is just 251 over and over and over and over. I don't get the praise. For me it's one of the worst compositions in jazz lol

But I agree though, it's definitely not my favorite standard to hear people play (except for Trane himself whose solo is beyond anything human).
Because it has no key centre. It's an exercise essentially. And yet great players regularly make great music out of it.
@@HaydenG_07 You might like this version if you haven't already heard it, I fell in love with the intro: ua-cam.com/video/1-wglNPGzrQ/v-deo.html
ur a tripper its one of the best compositions in jazz
this aint no exercise this song speaks beyond this dimension
