God, this is gorgeous -> Bonist Bob McChesney’s interpretation of “Laura” (Woody’s co-favorite song - tied with “Central Park West”). Jaw-dropping The Talent & FEEL Bob McCh. has. THE ESSENCE OF MUSICAL TASTE!
Everything comes to a price. To double toung so clearly he uses a very flat and relatively small mouthpiece. That's why he loses sound when he plays long low tones.
He is a trombone monster technically but not musically. And he is not alone. Today's trombone players have monsterous technic but it is all on expense of music. It's all robotic music because self expression in our times defined by technic. People and players alike not capable to get in touch with and express their feelings fully. We leave in the time when technology rules, and technology and heart don't necessarily go together. Music is not about how fast and how many notes one can play, music is about using the space between the notes.
Am I listening to a different recording?? I know what you mean about substituting technique for musicality but c’mon, McChesney is EXTREMELY tasteful. His doodle technique frees him to sound more like a sax (he loves Freddie Hubbard) so you can’t fairly compare him to other bone players, except maybe Carl Fontana. I’ve enjoyed/studied Bill Watrous for 40+ years and for my money, McChesney is more musical. Frank Rosolino was also extremely technical, but he was nowhere near as tasteful or melodic as McChesney
Michael Burns Your first time listen to jazz music? I‘m sorry you don‘t understand this. THIS player is absolutely awsome, I mean he is one of the best! And it hurts my soul you try to offend him.
When musicality and maturity transcend technical stuff. This could very well be the best bone playing this side of heaven 🧡
1:03 Excelente, tanto el trombonista Bob Mcchesney y Patrick Tuzzolino al piano
Super
mr bob am always your fan here in Ghana west afrika and i want to adapt to your style of play u guys too much
This mix is killing me...Bob sounds astounding, as per usual!
One of my most favorite, maybe the best one I've ever heard...
Gorgeous improvisation f braverman
Great feeling, interpretation and musicianship of a haunting melody, McChesney cruises effortlessly above the ether.
My favorite yet by Bob McChesney, thanks...
Magnifique:il ne reste plus qu'à se laisser envelopper par la douceur de cette merveilleuse mélodie qu'est "Laura"

Sweet Bob

I wish I could play like this! Why is doodle tonguing so easy to him?! lol
+AverageTrombonePlayer He (literally) wrote the book on doodle tonguing...check out his website...
Не didn't know any better...

@@ChristianCervetti he plays on a 7C.
Desire leads to repetition, repetition leads to mastery.
It's so...balsamic.
The first time through the song was outstanding, after that, unless you're another trombonist, I think most people get bored. JMHO.

Good grief!
I hear space between the notes
He showed "heart" on the first chorus; after that it was "technique."

Why do you play with such a lousy vocalist? Take his mic away from him before he hurts someone
Michael, you have no idea of what you talking about, poor you :(
