Esta es una de las mejores versiones de Cherokee que he escuchado. El jazz es un "lenguaje musical", en el que la inspiración de los músicos juega un rol importante. Y aquí, están todos inspirados. El "solo" de piano... ¡Excelente!.
all of these guys are just amazing players... of course, being a guitar player, i was particularly drawn to mark... love how he gets in the zone. i'm in awe of anyone who can play like this! well done guys!
I thought that too when he started off. The head and the beginning of his solo are very major pentatonic sounding, but he settles into the changes better as his solo goes on. And he knows, even if he doesn't exactly nail, the Brown and Roach ending. As I listen to more of these Studio Jams tracks, some are good... some not so much. Kind of what you expect when not everyone in the band knows the tunes inside and out.
Very interesting that metal like delay on the guitar is in places a bit much at a few points though truly sublime, where the guitar solo and the keyboards were intertwined, around the 12th fret, and working off and around through each other like a colorful spunky baroque round.... Thank You
Very nice and smoothly played!!!! ..... but that sometimes off beat "plop" Sound seems to me a mobile smartphone in the studio??? ......like notation of incoming messages or something like that. Am I right? 😅
The thing about guitar is that it is both an acoustic and an electronic instrument and basically back in the day there was very little you could do to augment your electronic sound. So they got the biggest guitars that had the nicest sound for some reason I don't think anybody really knows why 400 sounds better than a Les Paul for jazz but it does.
If you play yourself, you'll find out right away why hollow body guitars sound better in this setting: 1. Dynamics - acoustic guitars spend their energy quickly, giving a strong attack, quick decay and short sustain. This prevents muddiness and enables the guitar to mix better with other, highly dynamic instruments. 2. Color - on acoustic guitars, the interaction between strings is much stronger than on a solid body. The resonance of different chords and intervals become amplified, lending liveliness and interesting colors to the sound. By comparison, a solid body will sound flat.
Yes, jazz guitars sound better, Thanks Rick Jordan for the scientific analysis. Ulf Wakenus for instance, who plays a black Les Paul who gets a great tone. Studio recordings show the sound can be virtually identical. But, playing live shows shows the limitation for some reasons. Young guys now are playing semi-hollow and solid body's more and more, I think because, they are a lot easier to play. Flat wound strings are also harder to play on the big jazz boxes. The youngsters are also using a lot of effects which mask the natural sound of the guitars. Effects over used, can be monochromatic in effect and leads me to lament.
The real book version (the way it's usually played) is in double time. Here, they halved the tempo but the beat is now the half note instead of the quarter note.
***** Hey Jason. The whole solo was great. I was expecting an Ab7 or backdoor dominate chord at 1:55 followed by the one chord but what you played was unexpected and sounded great. I have listened several times and cannot make out what you played. Can you tell me what chords you played at this part of the song? Thanks
man...the guitar players groove is...urgh it kinda sounds quite horny quite like sco but in a different way than his haha i think i saw him on norah jones or someone else's show ?
Sorry, but this is my first thumbs down on you tube. I'm a Jazz Nut!!! I don't know, but for some reason I just don't feel this brother, Mark Witfield. I've tried several times to listen to him, but every time I feel the same way. Am I missing something? He always has the prettiest guitars but it always seems like he's trying too hard. Sorry but I just don't feel him like I feel Bobby Broom, Ed Cherry or Russell Malone. Maybe they are more experienced, I don't know. Comments are welcome, maybe i'm wrong .
He picks very hard I think mark is a player who has learned so many licks (very many) and he just feels like firing out all of them, i like it Especially because he is a master in connecting chords (lots of tension and often beautiful releases)
@@Bjazzzzzz12 you know what, I kinda agree with you, his solo spoilt the tune a bit for me, his tone wasn't at the level one would expect from a top class player
Jason Long, is killin it!!!!
The tempo on the song, is great!!
Love it.
👍🎩👍🤗
"Cherokee" is often played so fast , but this is so slow and so sweet .
Beautiful !!!
slow enough to follow along!
slow enough to really swang!!! when it wants to....nice track
I've never heard Cherokee play at this tempo. It's an absolutely beautiful arrangement. Great job gentlemen! This is awesome.
Note only did they halve the tempo, they are playing in cut time, ( 2/2 ) instead of 4/4.
Kudos to a bass brother pulling off that great upright technique on an electric.
The ol' palm mute and thumb pluck approach.
Mark Whitfield the tasteful guitarist and creative musician.
The piano player is spectacular!
They are all very good.
Yes !! Amazing
I love how the guitarist comps with out drowning out the keys rhythm parts, this whole ensemble is great.
Great !
wow now that's what I call a great sax tone. cool is an understatement...When cool is hot
Bravi tutti, grandi musicisti! Complimenti speciali ad Andrew e a Mark!!

Great rendition, loved the swing and the studio atmosphere. Well done guys, well done.
spiritual warriors ALL, such great and inspiring tone, thanks guys, good fun.
The sax player sounded amazing. Great piano accompaniment on the chords too.
God bless the drummer
Nice! Andrew is currently playing sax with Bobby Cadwell. Great player! Thanks for posting!
Somehow, I knew that the sax player was going to have hair and a shirt like that when I heard him start playing. He's got the smooth jazz look
hahaha you think like me.

John Miller What's the Brown and Roach ending - did they do something like that on their version? I'm a huge Brownie fan!
The ending on "Cherokee" from _Study in Brown_ -- that's what they're playing here.
That drummerlooks like he's gonna lay a rock beat any time soon
Very interesting that metal like delay on the guitar is in places a bit much at a few points though truly sublime, where the guitar solo and the keyboards were intertwined,

Thank You
Awesome synergy...Well done.
1:17 fascinating rhythm quote
3:02 too
Sweetest sax tone ever!
Great combo!
very good
Awesome.. I love the slower tempo
Very nice and smoothly played!!!!
..... but that sometimes off beat "plop" Sound seems to me a mobile smartphone in the studio??? ......like notation of incoming messages or something like that. Am I right? 😅
+exploreguitar I'm pretty sure it's the bass players left hand sliding on the strings as he changes positions.
I thought it was Whitfield popping the pickup(s) with his live guitar.
Sweet groove, gents!
I love you ,Mark!
Wonderful!
wow, glacial tempo
was that " If I only had a heart " they were quoting...
The tune sounds like X-mas music! Whitfield is great as always on the guitar, though.
Je n'en démord pas,super gratteur!La folie!!!
BIG LIKE
nice piano player, nice statement, i thought about Thelonius and Bud, i loved it , danke danke
thank you for giving me a tempo I can actually practice over without frantic 8ths lmao
this one is sooooooo nice!!!
amazing !
Nice easy groove...yes...
Elegancia del saxo.
I had to listen at least 3 times before I caught Jason's quote of "Fascinating Rhythm" at 1:18 ... well done! What other quotes are there?
3:02 too
Very nice! But what's that "boing" sound? I've checked my messages few times :), but it's from the video...
It's the bass player changing his hand position. It had me puzzle for a bit too.
BASS..and not the fish either
Great interpretation of a bebop song! Mark Whitfield is a marvellous player...well, they ALL are! Question, what make of guitar is he playing?
It's a Marchione archtop guitar. Mike Moreno also plays a Marchione, although he's got a thin semi-hollow.
This sounds kinda similar to the music that "Monsters, Inc." begins on. LOVE this!!!!! It's very relaxing.
Nice indeed!

El saxo alto tiene resabios del gran Paul Desmond sin alcanzar su genialidad.
Bravo guyZ... (Y)
nice job , specially the sax
good sound they had. but what bothers me is that this video actually has more visits and likes that the charlie parker Cherokee record, so...
Smoooooooooth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nice, despite the mix of different styles!
What kind of guitar does he have?
His guitar is made by the luthier Stephen Marchione from Texas
Sounds great! I looked in the real book and the song consists of mostly whole notes with a few half notes... How did this band make it so fast?
The real book version (the way it's usually played) is in double time. Here, they halved the tempo but the beat is now the half note instead of the quarter note.
@@jerrodshackelford6773 Right, they slowed the tempo way down, and are playing in cut time, 2 beats per measure and a half note gets one beat.
@@patriciodasilva7902 Sorry, it's the other way around from what I said. The fast way is "normal" and this is more lke cut time like you've said.
2:35 ayy
I like it in SLOW also... 😘
Nice.
really wish that delay on the mark's guitar wasn't there, i found it sort of killed his solo
great
Who is the alto player. Nice feel
Is he playon an alt sax?
Guy Yizhary yessir
i had to put it on x2 speed haha :(
Very tasty!
Nossa como eu queria aprender a improvisar na guitarra vil mas tudo bem só fico olhando mesmo kkkkkk
Less reverb on the guitar
not reverb ....delay
the guitar has both reverb and delay effect..
regalo de dios
🇧🇷🇧🇷☕☕
Mastery 1:55-1:59
Thanks! It was probably a mistake though:) (this is Jason)

I have listened several times and cannot make out what you played. Can you tell me what chords you played at this part of the song? Thanks
+Matt Buffett Surprising and great moment indeed. Seems to be F#maj7 followed by Emaj7 or something similar.
Deeeeeeelaaaaaaayyyyyyyy :/
IKR, and on such a beaut of a guitar!
man...the guitar players groove is...urgh it kinda sounds quite horny quite like sco but in a different way than his haha
i think i saw him on norah jones or someone else's show ?
+Chang Pahk he actually sounds nothing like sco. it's almost like the complete opposite of sco
Wet
GREAT MUSIC, TOO MUCH REVERB ON THE GUITAR, BUT NICE PLAYING

That's cool. My uncle is total jazz nut, but he can't stand George Benson.
That's just jazz
I guess it’s just a matter taste. Don’t get me wrong, I wish I could play half as good as him But I just feel like something is missing.
@@Bjazzzzzz12 you know what, I kinda agree with you, his solo spoilt the tune a bit for me, his tone wasn't at the level one would expect from a top class player
jerry levy if you haven’t already check out Ed Cherry and you’ll see what I mean
Tempo waaaay off. Properly played here:
