@8:24 Herb talks about Joe Pass
Just found your channel. What a great interview...watched both parts! You have a treasure trove of things on your channel. I will be busy watching many more. Thank you for uploading all of this history!
i stole a lot of lines from Herb, thank you sir
Amazing guitarist!!
As a musician I'm no jazz buff by any means but I absolutely loved his style and feel...
Weird to realise Herb would've been over 100 now....
His album Soft Shoe is one of my all-time favourites in any genre!!
Grant green played a gibson es330 which was made “plywood” style and it was completely hollow inside. It didn’t have the solid maple block that runs through the entire guitar like the es 335’s do ect..and he sounded awesome. The “plywood” gibson es series guitars were made with 3 sheets of wood glued together. 2 sheets of maple wood and a sheet of poplar wood in the middle, it’s not like they were with plastic or cardboard. It’s obvious that an all solid wood guitar is more expensive and it surely has different tonal qualities but the gibson es 335 series was and still one of the best selling guitar series in the world.... since they began making them...
Herb's story about an unrehearsed guitar solo with the Jimmy Dorsey band had me in stitches.
Herb Ellis One of the all time greats, really enjoyed this interview. Thank you for sharing.
haha Oscar Peterson cool as a fan. 7:34
Gibson specs show the 165 to be the same laminate body as a 175. Not sure what Herb was meaning by all solid wood..
“Sometimes the best music you’ll make is something you leave out”. Man oh man, words of wisdom right there. That is so true. It took me a long time to learn that lesson. Thanks for posting this, really enjoyed it.
An interview is always better when the interviewer is well-informed ahead of time. Very nice interview on both their parts.
the way Herb talks kinda reminds me of Wayne.
"A bunch of silly stuff". I love it!
Xxxx Herb Ellis xx just fab xx
The interviewer's questions sound like he got them out of an interview book...as if he knows not very much about guitar or Herb
