What a masterpiece, full of melancholy. As a French, i have to say that this song is originally a poem from Jacques Prévert called " les feuille morte" in Eng " the dead leaves" i wish everybody who love this song could know the original text of this beautiful poem who talk about a lost love and the nostalgic of this relationship, i don't know why they changed the lyrics for the English version ( the fallen leaves) the original version is much better, let me translate it for you guys, for all of us, who lost their lovers. Oh I would like you so much to remember The joyful days when we were friends. At that time, life was more beautiful And the sun burned more than it does today. Fallen leaves can be picked up by the shovelful. You see, I have not forgotten… Fallen leaves can be picked up by the shovelful, So can memories and regrets. And the north wind takes them Into the cold night of oblivion. You see, I have not forgotten The song you used to sing me. (chorus) This song is like us. You used to love me and I used to love you And we used to live together, You loving me, me loving you. But life separates lovers, Pretty slowly, noiselessly, And the sea erases on the sand The separated lovers’ footprints. for yayun
Some people like oranges and some prefer grapefruits. I prefer Chet Baker's more traditional interpretation, but this is more melancholy and certainly very very good.
Superb. Adderly is a consumate musician and Miles is, well Miles. This is what improvisation is supposed to be like. Close your eyes and be transported.
This record date was Cannonball's, PERIOD!!! The latter asked and invited Miles Dewey Davis III to share the front line with him. Julian Edwin Adderley was recording as a leader before John William Coltrane, Sr. When Cannonball arrived in New York City, in 1955, Yard was already gone for three months. Adderley was in great demand for recording dates, night club appearances, and so on. Most Xs and millennials weren't even born when this classic LP was released circa December 1958. They bought this album (mostly on CD) because of Miles, PERIOD!!! I was very fortunate to know Blue Note's photographer, the late great Frank Wolff. Cannonball picked his rhythm section for the March 9th, 1958 record date: the legendary pianist Hank Jones, the legendary bassist Sam Jones (no relation) and master percussionist Art Blakey. Jones would later become Cannonball's bassist for the next several years afterwards. 'Trane was certainly one of the greatest tenor saxophonists in the history of jazz. However, there wouldn't any tenor saxophonists, without the one who started it all, Coleman Randolph "Hawk" or "Bean" Hawkins, PERIOD!!! JULIAN EDWIN "Cannonball" ADDERLEY (September 15th, 1928 - August 8th, 1975), one of the greatest alto saxophonists in the history of modern jazz, continued to make other great albums after he left Miles. SOMETHING ELSE (Blue Note BLP 1595) was one of them. Oh, by the way! This arrangement of "Autumn Leaves" belongs to another master of the keyboard, Ahmad Jamal. Ciao!
Thanks, Bruce, this is about the best jazz recording of 'Autumn Leaves' PERIOD 😊by a distance. I have always pondered why much of the credit went to Miles Davis when the arrangements were Cannonball's
@@zwelakhezwane4128 ...Thank you very much for your generous compliments. However, I'm just another jazz historian who has a lot more to learn. Jazz isn't anything to toy with. Stay focused and enjoy!
@@Axylrose2000 ...This Autumn Leaves arrangement belongs to Ahmad Jamal, not Cannonball Adderley. There are other great versions of Autumn Leaves recorded by Ahmad Jamal, Erroll Garner, George Shearing, Cal Tjader, just to name a few.
Thank u for this video. Autumn Leaves is one of my favourite songs sung by many singers & played by many musicians. This rendition has to be one of the best. Such talented musicians.
This cut is off the 1958 Cannonball Adderley LP Somethin' Else. Musicians Cannonball Adderley - alto saxophone Miles Davis - trumpet Hank Jones - piano Sam Jones - bass Art Blakey - drums Production Alfred Lion - Producer Rudy Van Gelder - recording engineer
The leader of the group is Miles Davis from the performance, but it is said that Miles has contracted with another record company at that time because it is Cannonball Adderley.
I like Miles with Cannonball. Mr. Adderley smooths out Miles temper some. The rhythm section(?) lays a steady movement you could walk on with just the right amount of swing. IMOI one of the best Autumn Leaves.

Bonjour from America! No matter who does this song, I love it! Merci for the information about Jacques Prevert. You learn something new everyday!
Merci
Creo que es una de las mejores piezas de jazz. Hay muchos intérpretes del tema pero miles Davis, lo borda
❤
Thanks ❤
“Don’t play what’s there, play what’s not there.” This and "Generique", unbelievable.
Je suis désolé de ne lire que de l´Anglais !!!! c´est merveilleux tout de même d´entendre cette musique !!!!! Bravo !
Désolé, pourquoi? Un tel chef d'oeuvre, interpreté par un génie comme Miles Davis, fait partie du patrimoine culturel de l'humanité entière.
The absolute best version of Autumn Leaves, hands down!
Some people like oranges and some prefer grapefruits. I prefer Chet Baker's more traditional interpretation, but this is more melancholy and certainly very very good.
Even when Cannon tries to play sad and mournful it's still comes out exuberant and affirmative. It's just his personality shining through.
fosbury68 ...You don't know anything about Cannonball Adderley.
Superb. Adderly is a consumate musician and Miles is, well Miles. This is what improvisation is supposed to be like. Close your eyes and be transported.
Absolutely Magic!
Sublime.
The only wrong is that it should never end!
Adore it!
Timeless.
Miles plays like telling a story.
Fantastic.
When instruments talk of a story and paint images in music.
Sublime!

A great song from a classic album, with Miles and Cannonball in superb form, backed by a terrific rhythm section.
BEAUTIFULL

Adderly at his best. Miles at his best. Jazz at it's best!
grande orchestra pezzo musicale meraviglioso

Timeless melody thanxs Mr Davis
Drizzly beautiful.
thanks for sharing!
marvellous solo by cannonball..
That guy could soar. He even does a little mocking homage to the Bird at 4:15.
For a second I was like who's Julian? And then I realized nobody would actually name their child Cannonball lol
Looooooool
One of my favorite songs
Montmartre, Rive gauche, Juliette Greco, Jacques Prevert,Joseph Kosma, the embodiment of Paris, in fact..
Muy bueno....-

@@emmanuelbarache8259 thank you !!
Remarkable that someone would give this a thumbs down.
Almost as good as the classic tapes with Coltrane. What a pair of musicians...
Great!
Haunting musician spirits

Thx
Is there a famous performance "Dead Leaf" other than the performance by Miles Davis?
Bello
GOOD !!
