- Опубліковано 6 лис 2021
- AI deinterlacing and noise reduction, upscaled to 720p; colour graded; enhanced audio... (now with plenty of Gene Wright!)
This is part 6 of the Dave Brubeck Craven Filter Special hosted by Digby Wolfe. Broadcast live, 1 April 1962 on ATN Channel 7 Sydney, Australia. See all the videos of this performance on this channel.
The film was saved from destruction in 1984 and now is with the Australian National Film and Sound Archive. A 1" PAL telecine transfer of the film was sent to Dave Brubeck's management in the mid 90s.
Iconic. Wonderful. And when I see these old clips it really bothers me that they pay so little attention to Joe Morello; Whose creative drumming and time signatures brought jazz into every living room and into mainstream music. Genius.
You have it almost right. It was Brubeck's unique time signature that popularized jazz, pushing it through to mainstream audiences.
What a treat to see (and hear) my favorite saxophonist of all.time - - Paul Desmond.
A real pity he left us so early...
A piece of jazz history. I felt very fortunate to see Dave Brubeck play late in his career. He was a master of unconventional time signatures, as shown in this video.
This is my comfort music. When I think about going out to relax, this is what I want to hear. And so expertly played!
One of the best jazz numbers I've ever heard.
Brilliant!!!!
I absolutely appreciate this wonderful composition. Thank you for posting it.
Dave is the only one who reads his sheet music. At the piano he is the center of the music, the one who coordinates, the one who directs, the one who creates. A genius.
The sheets above the piano keyboard don't look like music notation but just ordinary handwritten lists/comments/notes or whatever. As far as I know, Dave Brubeck was not a strong reader of music notation.
I tried to dance to this, but I ended up in the hospital.

This is what Elaine Bennis was actually dancing to

I understand. It’s in9/8 time.
I am so thankful I grew up on, among others, the Dave Brubeck Quartet. We often had the albums playing on the phonograph. I could never get enough of Dave's "block-y" style, and Paul Desmond has up until today been a major musical influence, including on my own guitar playing.
Heard them on a record in ‘69! Have been a fan ever since! Unrivaled in their mastery of time signatures and advanced harmony! Just the best!
We just didnt rralize how good they were
Great version!
I heard the record of his classic tunes at a friends' in the 60s, never owned it; but I like this much better, freer and just really really good.
Accountant bros thought to go for a gig after working a full day at the office.
Pretty standard clothing for jazz musicians at the time.
Great at the top level of art!!!!
Superb. Morello is a giant.
Después de la intensidad de la intro, estos tipos preparan con ello un clima absoluto de tensión . Te llevan al límite en el que el oyente se pregunta: que viene después de semejante brutalidad armónica.
De inmediato comienza la diversión y se encargan (con total maestría)de pasearte por diferentes paisajes sonoros.👌
Gracias!!👏👏👏👏👏
Simply beautiful. Congrats for a good remaster, I've seen the original and it's a lot of work to restore it.
hell yea
A masterpiece and fully explained the artwork
Thanks for the wonderful music and have a great weekend. PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.
Hands up those who came here because of Keith Emerson!
yes indeed
Not at All, Keith Richards

Keith Partridge.
Great arrangement
its the original way it was recorded. Not an arrangement. A little faster is all.
@@sethwexler6910no, the middle portion with the saxophone and the piano is very different
Remember Digby Wolfe on Australian TV late 1960's. Very suave. I think my mother had a bit of a crush on him!
Brilliant ! ; 4 masters playing jazz !
Nice work.
The tight restricted theme is an interesting study but how you relax when it flows like a bird
I got flashbacks to the Propellerheads with that intro.
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing!

Great musicians. The best.
Adından kaynaklanan, Mozart'ın Türk marşından esinlendiğine dair bir yanlış yargı olsa da sanatçının bir dönem Türkiye'de bulunup sokak sanatçılarından esinlenmesi sonucu bu ismi verdiği eseridir
Tight.
Maybe I'd only say this 'cause I'm a drummer, but Mr. Morello is the most interesting musician here. Just DIG that left hand comping!
But can he play Marry had a little lamb?
More Joe Morello!!!
All drummers in the jazz world stop and pay homage at the shrine of Joe Morello.
Actually ashamed of myself as a quasi-music aficionado that I’d heard the Al Jarreau cover of this back in 1982 before ever hearing of this one. His take wasn’t bad in fact. Not as solid as the OGs here of course. 👌🏻
Consumate musicianship.
Amazing! How did you achieve the enhancement of audio quality? I'm interested in trying to do this type of remasters myself....
You need a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) or audio software. I use Logic Pro. Get some half-decent monitors. Listen to some great sounding recordings, then flip over to the music you're mastering, and try to adjust the various EQ controls until it sounds more like the reference track. Keep going backwards and forwards until it's as close as you can make it. You can also use the audio spectrum analyser, which is a visualisation of the music across the audio range. That might give you some clues... but ears are better. There's a function in Logic called Match EQ, which also can help you cheat a bit. There's plenty of remastering videos right here on UA-cam. Good luck!
Everybody looks so intense except for Gene Wright who is just enjoying the ride!
So relaxed that when he laughed with relief at the end of the Unsquare Dance recording, they kept it on the record.
No close up of Gene... you bastards
Audio sounds clipped out to me, especially Paul Desmond.
I will ensure you receive a refund.
Nice, but why did not AI clean up the cliches on the telercording.
Because currently, the more AI filtering that is applied, the less real everything looks. I have the un-filtered version on my channel too, if you want to compare the differences.
Different than their "Time Out" album...But that's Jazz. The Paintings add nothing to the briliance of the performance, I wonder who got paid to produce them.
The bass player doesn't wear glasses...
Blame on myself , so much had to eat as novelty , modernism and the like , you name it , and not only in jazz but many others types of music , media gave us latest " talent " and you had to eat it aka buy records , see shows ......
Minute 3 on forwards it sounds like folk music from south Italy ,
with all my respect to south Italy s
Who is Al? What’s his last name?
Small joke
Paul Desmond holds pretty close to the regular version, but Dave makes some interesting excursions.
Remaster. That is his last name. It's French, I think. Sometimes written "re' Master". Always pronounced: "Remma Stir". He was the conductor for the quartet, and was typically situated in the wings, stage left, in the eye-line of Dave.
@@CharleyHolland Ah, yes. Monsieur Remaster. He was also the guy that mixed Dry Martini's for Paul to make sure that he always sounded like one.
but live they wouldnt want to play it like the recording.
Hey, it’s jazz. I’ve heard a number of recordings (both studio and live) of this and other Brubeck & Co numbers, and there are many variations, usually in the solos. Not uncommon.
On the big hit Take Five (written by Paul Desmond), with that ungainly 5/4 beat, the boys got better and better playing it after the famous recording. Some live versions are very fast and quite surprising.
Morello'a Ludwig drum kit interestingly seems to be a "Superbeat" one here (13"-16"-20" instead if his usual 13"-16"-22").
Im surprised he didnt use an 18 inch bass drum. Wouldve never used a 22 for this group and music.
I have never seen a "Superbeat" Ludwig outfit in the Ludwig catalogs from this era, and Ludwig never called them "Kits" in the 1960s! Perhaps the AI shrank the Bass drum. Or, it is just a Super Classic outfit with a 20" BD. The Jazzette would've come with an 18. Mel Lewis would use a 20" BD with calf heads, maybe Mr. Morello spoke with him.
@@sethwexler6910 Back in the day, most guys would go with the 22.
@@edgarcook9607 8 lugs= 20" (and 18" as well) BD, 10 lugs= 22" BD (but also 24" and over), that as for WFL/Ludwig (to say, I've seen vintage 22" Leedy BDs with "only" 8 lugs) , so we can be pretty sure that's a 20".
About the word "Kit", that's what we over Europe sometime use en lieu of "drumset".
And finally yes, "Superbeat" never existed, it has become colloquial among enthusiasts and collectors for a mix of "Superclassic" toms (13" and 16") and "Downbeat" BD (20"), quite clearly a special order or a put together set.
Ez egy kicsit olyan mintha Kodály Zoltán írta volna 😁
Did Rush steal this for Natural Science?
lol
@@sethwexler6910 you should check out Paul Gilbert's cover of this
AI made Dave Brubeck have four chins, what the hell is wrong with you people?
Is this jazz? My question is genuine.
I think so. Brubeck's sound was simply one of many types of jazz, which took form just 50 years prior to this 1962 recording, and quickly diversified in many directions. Brubeck's music was comparatively studied, structured and accessible, which might not be to every jazz lover's liking... and that's the question you're probably actually asking here. I consider the popular music of Brubeck contemporary George Shearing to be jazzy, but not jazz. But either musician and their respective band members could smoke up some real stuff if they wanted to. They probably just couldn't make it pay.
the rondo a la turka is a beautiful piece of music...but sadly not when destroyed by the dave brubeck quartet
I think you will find that that is a minority opinion around these parts.
Wolfie would have loved Hell out of this, and you know it!
the introduction by the gentleman couldve been left out. Psuedo intellectuall BS. The performance was fantastic.
*intellectual, could have or could've*
Waaaaa waaa
Pseudo, not psuedo. Throwing rocks in a glass house.
@@jim2376haha, this is not the right context for that sentence.
Intro typical of the pseudo intellectual nonsense of the time. As if the listener needs it explained!
I think this is a hideous piece of music, the point of which seems to be the desire to show us that Brubeck can't swing. This is classical and jazz at it's worse, and instead of impressing us that white guys can play jazz, it has the opposite effect for me.
Paul Desmond saves the day again.
