• JOHN PATITUCCI - Subt....
i start whit romantic warrior when i was 16...today, i am 59 and continuos listening this guy. all my life
Hello Osvaldo, I´m Juan, the interviewer. I didn´t start as early as you. I started listening to Chick and these artists from Elektric band records. Thanks for your comment.
@@mronlinedrumstv yes, in those days, return to forever, romantic warrior and the mahavishnu orchestra with visions of the emerald beyond ... then my poor brain exploded
"To The Stars" Chick, go show
them what it means to shine.
Play On My Man.
R.I.P. Chick.
Fantastic album, probably my favourite from him. After 50+ listens, I still discover something new (I'm not a musician) !
Thanks John! RIP Chick.
Woohoooo!! Fantastic transcription and playing mate. Great hands too!! Bravo!
There are no words, only tears, pain and sadness
John The Man Patitucci!!! R.i.p. Chick ❤
Thanks for everything Chick!
Hello everyone. I´m Juan, the interviewer and video editor. Thanks for your comments and good feedback. Don´t miss the full interview with John and with other TOP artists: Thomas Lang, Tom Kennedy, Dennis Chambers, Simon Phillips, Dean Brown, Dave DiCenso, Gavin Harrison....Thanks for watching.
Fantastic interview, sir!!
Hello Tim, thanks for your comment. I´m glad you liked it.. Cheers!
Juan, thanks for this! I love JP's solo albums, and feel lucky to be among the fans of the Elektric Band and all the amazing solo projects that sprung out of this (and I probably should credit Return to Forever as well) - not enough people appreciate how profoundly creative and talented these guys are!!
Thanks for the thoughtful questions! This was great to see!
Thank you Chick!
The Best ever, Love John.
Yes. Thank you Chick.
Chick's Return Forever & Elektric Band projects will remain one of the most technically advanced & magnificent creations ever produced, Thanks John for the sentiment & posting
Had the privilege of meeting both in different venues! Chick and JP are amazing talents of the highest level, and amazing people to chat with everyone!
Hello Omax. Such an experience. I´ve not watched live to the elektric band, nor Patitucci. Well, I watched the Elektric Band II, with Gary Novak and Jimmy Earl on bass. Eric Marienthal on sax...
All of us who are still reeling from the awful news of Chick's passing find great solace and comfort from these remembrances of those closest to him. FWIW, I "discovered" Chick back in 1974 as a young teen. I'd been a guitar player before that but after hearing the title track "Where Have I Known You Before" --I changed my instrument to piano. HIs expression and melodic phrasing just cut to my very soul.
Thank you John, Dave and ALL of the cats who graced and enriched our lives...and this planet.
First time I heard about Chick was because I was looking music with Weckl, so...It was around 1992, when I watched Weckl´s first instructional videos, as I say in the video. Thanks for your comment!
@@mronlinedrumstv Great interview; this music is so profound to those who appreciate it, and it's awesome to learn more about what an generous, kind man Chick was! John is amazing too, a perfect for the band!
I love chick & patitucci
We lost a GIANT. Chick will forever be missed.
Yeah...Chick and all the greats of jazz. I salute you.
Thank you for sharing
I've been a fan of John Patitucci for years and he introduced me to the master Chick Corea I will forever be inspired by these amazing musicians ❤
Chick was not only blessed with his phenomenal musical gifts, but he was also an amazing evaluator of talent. He knew exactly who was capable of bringing his compositions to life. John is a very skilled and gifted musician and composer in his own right.
Hello Keith. Absolutely what you said. Don´t miss the full interview with John here. Cheers! ua-cam.com/video/FBIs9OPrvXQ/v-deo.html Thanks for your comment.
@@mronlinedrumstv I will definitely watch the full interview!
Una pasada de entrevista!! Mis felicitaciones amigo por tu trabajo!!
Nos alegramos mucho de que te guste. Espero que encuentres más contenido interesante en nuestro canal. Saludos Josemi.
I first heard John at Concert by the Sea jazz club in Los Angeles, backing up Eddie Daniel. I came to see Eddie but after hearing John, I forgot about Eddie. Super natural . Eddie your still the cat in my hat.
One thing that really impressed me about Chick is his uncanny ability to connect with drummers. If you watch his videos, you see he pays close attention to them. The interplay is quite unreal. And he has played with some amazing drummers: Haynes, Gadd, Weckl, Blade, etc.
Yes, the duets with his drummers is awesome!
I think one of the reasons is that he almost choose, when teenager, to start a pro drummer career instead of pro pianist one.
Chick was quite a good drummer. Damn I almost typed is a good drummer. What a loss
Please don't forget Gary Novak, one of the best.
Any drummer who gets the nod is gonna be a player for sure. Gary is great
Wonderful to hear how Chick was the catalyst
Iconic... simply Iconic.
God Bless CC !!!
Great interview. I only wish it were longer. There needs to be a multi part documentary on Chick Corea, including everything and everyone associated with him.
Thanks. I assume you have watched the full interview. John didn’t have much time. That night he had a concert, and had just arrived from USA. Thanks for your comment.
@@mronlinedrumstv I look forward to watching the entire interview. I like your style....you get right to the pertinent questions. I'm not a bass player or drummer.... but I have studied the instructional works of both John and Dave...especially Daves snare course (even getting sticks and a pad to work out his exercises).
Great Tom! I´m Juan the interviewer. Here you have the full interview. I´m still touched by that time with Mr. Patitucci. Cheers!

some of the best producers on the planet: Corea, Moss, Grusin, Rosen and of course John Pattitucci. Any wonder the quality and sound is so good?
Chick nos marcó profundamente, y lo seguirá haciendo. Tuve la enorme suerte de poder intercambiar videolecciones con John a través de Artist Works e impresionaba tanto su calidad docente como enorme corazón y humildad (lo cual se refleja aquí también en la entrevista). Muchas gracias por hacer posible este pequeño encuentro y viaje :)
Muchas gracias por contar esa pequeña historia. Siéntete libre de contarnos algo más de cómo es una clase privada con John.
@@mronlinedrumstv Daría para escribir todo un libro, cada pequeño consejo que daba generaba cientos de caminos que explorar. Si tuviera que destacar algo es la importancia que daba a los orígenes africanos del jazz (hacía mucho hincapié en el ritmo Abakuá), a la danza (literalmente, bailaba basculando sobre el contrabajo) y, SOBRE TODO, a los rudimentos (independientemente del nivel, volver periódicamente a trabajar los componentes esenciales del instrumento y de la música) y al tono. Lo hacía todo con mucha bondad, pero era muy exigente con estas cosas: la producción del tono, la afinación y el groove. Lo decía con la firmeza e intención del que sabe que es algo, de alguna manera, obvio para todo músico, pero que es la eterna asignatura que muchos evitan afrontar con la escrupulosidad que merece. Por eso considero tan importantes este tipo de clases con grandes figuras, que sean necesariamente referentes, porque son figuras de autoridad a las que, sí o sí, acabamos haciendo caso bien en serio, jajaja.También delimitaba muy inteligentemente los papeles de cada uno de los elementos de la banda y te aconsejaba encarecidamente que incluyeses en tu rutina (en mi caso, de contrabajo) ejercicios de piano e incluso de batería (¡la hermandad rítmica!).
¡Un abracico y gracias de nuevo! :)
Muchísimas gracias por los detalles. Son muy didácticos. En la entrevista completa recomienda lo que tú dices, aprender a tocar batería. Espero que puedas verla entera. Esto es un fragmento. Saludos.
Armando was a wonderful vessel. Chick Corea is immortal
Absolutely!!
Such an amazing interview! Thanks for this brother. 🙏🏼
Hello Julian. I assume you have watched the full interview. This video is a excerpt of it. Don´t miss it. Thanks for your comment. Here: ua-cam.com/video/FBIs9OPrvXQ/v-deo.html
Gracias, hi from the states. Dave Weckl is from my home state, we've known about him a long time. Bfn
Thanks Dallas (I´m Juan, the interviewer). Cheers.
@@mronlinedrumstv 😁
Thanks for this. Blessings.
Gr8 interview
Great to see clips of the behind scenes early days, what a band that was. And that 1st album from John is something.
That Patitucci first record was the first time I heard a guy named Vinnie Colaiuta. I was following Weckl for some months and then I heard Vinnie. What a period was that for me...and for thousands of music fans too!!
@@mronlinedrumstv yes, me too. I remember to this day playing it, loving the drums on certain tracks and reading the track list band notes. Oh I thought all the tracks were Weckl, who is this Vinnie dude, wow.
Exactly, and when I knew both more...in every album the share the drum chair and without watching the credit list, guessing who was the drummer in every track. When the drummer was Erskine or Alex Acuna it was easy but man...Weckl and Vinnie on those first years of my musical "ear"... it wasn´t easy. Cheers Paul.

Saludos desde Chile!!!!!
Part of the soundtrack of so many of our lives. Viva Armando. Viva la musica.
Absolutely. As I said in the interview (I´m Juan) discovering Chick Corea EB was a non turning point and a big change in my perception about music, practicing and enjoying many styles and not only rock. Thanks por your comment Robert.
Grazie per questa testimonianza.
It´s a pleasure Tito. Thanks to you.
Great well informed interviewer, especially bearing in mind it sounds like English is not his first language.
Yes, you are right! (I´m Juan, the interviewer and video editor). English is not my first language, I´m spanish. My spoken English is what you can see there (some mistake here and there). But I think 99% of what I´ve read, watched and learnt in all these decades has been in English, so I owe so much to it. And as many of you, I´ve beeing follwing these artists since I have musical mind. Thanks for your comment!
@@mronlinedrumstv I understood everything Juan said perfectly.
@@mronlinedrumstv Great interview! First interview I've actually seen with Mr Patitucci.
Thanks for posting. Great interview. Loved Chick's playing and composing. I sat a few feet away from him watching him play one time. He's influenced my composing & playing for decades and I wrote some pieces in his honor. John is one of my all-time favorite bassists on electric & acoustic.
Hello John. I´m glad you liked it. I asssume you have watched the full interview. Just in case, you have it here: ua-cam.com/video/FBIs9OPrvXQ/v-deo.html Thanks for your comment.
"Chick has always been my favorite keyboardist, even when I was in my teens playing jazz trumpet, he had a style that was instantaneously recognizable, very hard for a keyboardist to pull off. "Short tales of the black forest" and "Romantic Warrior" are my most played records, and worthy of Heaven's jukebox." td
Never knew John had albums made with Chick, which is sad because John is easily one of the top ranked in my list of bass players. But listening to this album rn, it's omega chad AF. It's basically just more of the elektric band stuff but more centred around John.
'' JUST more of the Elektric band':
@@KONAMAN100 Trust me, I say that in the best way possible. His discography is sick. Spent the whole day working my way through his stuff.
Excellent interview!
At 4:25 Mr. Patitucci explains things in the best possible way
Thanks. Don´t miss the full interview +30min...(this video is an excerpt). Thanks for your comment.
@@mronlinedrumstv I thank you again for making this interview and for your response!
Greetings from Athens! Να είσαι πάντα καλά!
Damn Chick
How sad this is cannot be put into words.
This is a master piece interview. Probably one of the best jazz interview ever! Thanks so much! Straight to the point and a lot of knowledge! Just the fist video after the declaration of Weckl like the best young drummer that's spears Colaiuta but it's ok! Drummers does better ! Aweso documen! Thanks !
Hello Julio. You´re very kind with your words. I´m glad you liked it. I asssume you have watched the full interview. Just in case, you have it here: ua-cam.com/video/FBIs9OPrvXQ/v-deo.html Thanks for your comment. Cheers!
0:00 If that isn't the most perfect bass tone you've ever heard in your life - I'd love to know what it is.
talks about Dave Weckl getting the gig; immediately plays a clip of Vinnie lol
Yes. I put both clips, with Vinnie and Weckl, both with Chick Corea, as a farewell of the video. I put Vinnie´s first because it was older and the only one I found available with Vinnie (with good quality). Then Weckl playing the iconic "Spain", with the classic Elektric Band formation. Both drummers are legends playing with legends composers and bands. Thanks for your comment Noel.
Isn't it great? You got to see TWO drum geniuses instead of ONE!
clip at 6:06 is Vinnie Colaiuta on drums, not Dave Weckl
Weckl or Vinnie ... until this day I am not sure which drummer is better. I like John P. but he rarely does the Bass slapping ... when he does ... it is the most grooviest deepest pocket.
In my opinion there is no better. We are lucky having both and in the same era. Thanks for your comment. Don´t miss the full interview with John here: ua-cam.com/video/FBIs9OPrvXQ/v-deo.html
I think that the only way to really respect the greatness of Weckl and Colaiuta is to not make it a competition. They are both the best, for different reasons. I like Weckl a bit better but that's just personal taste. Vinnie's a major inspiration too.
right after talking about Weckl you show Vinnie ??? That'll confuse loads of ppl who don't know who those drummers are/look like!
I understand you. We were talking about both, Vinnie and Weckl. There are several pictures of Weckl in the video while we talked about him. At the end I put Vinnie and Weckl videos just as a farewell of these stories told by John about Chick Corea. I put Vinnie´s first because that concert is older than the second with Weckl, and I wanted both drummers to be at the end of this excerpt from the full interview. It´s not a biographical documentary, just incredible words from John of that period. Luckly we have Vinnie and Weckl in this adventure called music and of course, very related to the maestro Chick. Thanks for your comment.
What language is this? Sorry
Subtiles are in Spanish.
