[pidgaynyy1]

El relaksazione... :)

[mnansambi]

Es un moustrico de donde sea...@

[AbBahira]

Este es un posturitas... :D



[Cerigos]

I'd love to see the entire footage (if there is anymore) of him doing I Didn't Know What Time it Was

[carbone1957]

meraviglia



[MrHannibal31]

Beaucoup de coeur et de générosité dans cette interprétation

Merci,Avi!

[Pffs]

I´d be more than happy to give Avishai some pronounciation lessons.

Otherwise he´s awesome, a genius.

[TheAgusbass]

@Pffs hay que admitir q le da un aire lindo, con su pronunciacion

[araticum2]

Can anyone tell me the name of the song he sings before alfonsina? Thanks

[FLCL2010]

@araticum2 i didnt know what time it was.

[cab88888]

C'est beau.

[3y14pi]

es felix luna, la version es una poronga , escuchen musicos argentinos si les gusta esta musica , y no a yankys aburridos de tocar jazz y tratandose de hacer los raros

[ellocogris]

@3y14pi Avishai es de Israel, no es yanki. Además que la cancion sea de origen Argentino no significa que nadie más pueda tocarla o no pueda ser tocada de una forma distinta. A mi me encantó esta versión... relajate y aprendé a disfrutar de la música

[jazzrockbass]

@ellocogris  tiene una gran forma de interpretar, muy natural

maestro cohen

[byronlozaBass]

@ellocogris tenes razón, eso demuestra que es una persona con la suficiente sensibilidad como para apreciar música de todo el mundo, y recordemos que la música es el idioma universal. Saludos

[juliocaesarglz]

@3y14pi no seas pendejo maestro no te cierres porque argentina no es todo. me encanta esta version, mejor checate la de "cafe tacuba" y en esa te dare la razon porque esa version esta para cagarse

[plumemusik]

Avishai habillé de lumière.

[elandujazz]

The best version I know from this beautiful song is from Claudia Acuña (Alex Acuña's wife!) in duet with double bass... Avishali Cohen is a great musician!!!!

[hecbone]

@elandujazz  avishai plays with claudia all the time

[flastrufia]

Linda versión, lástima que, como pasa tantas veces, el poema queda relegado a favor del "feeling", lugar común de los tiempos que corren...

[julirezmon]

Le las mejores versiones que he escuchado de esta cancion

[mingus72]

Cuando sea grande quiero ser como èl!..

[lagartonokturno]

@mingus72 cuando seamos como èl, seremos grandes!!!



[mianc]

Sublime!!!

Gracias Avishai, desde España te echamos de menos!

[mottelelevi]

Incredibly beautiful interpretation of "Alfonsina Y El Mar", though, with slight pronounciation errors. I never much liked Avishai Cohen on bass guitar, but his performances on double bass are of a beauty that goes beyond description!

[LoulouOnTheDark]

très belles images... très émouvant, bravo.

[HippieKlatscher]

whats the first song called?

[HippieKlatscher]

ok i got it...

[abhandzarai]

amazing!

do you know something about the first song, before the ladino one?

[HippieKlatscher]

i didnt know what time it was...it was written by richard rodgers.

[chiozzafab]

He sings in Spanish. It´s an argentine song from the sixties.

[FLCL2010]

@chiozzafab Ladino.

[TheImposer]

@FLCL2010 This song's lyrics are in Spanish.

[FLCL2010]

@TheImposer yeah my bad this is the

 song from argentina.

[mottelelevi]

The song was written by Ariel Ramirez yo honour the Swiss-born Argentine post-modern poetess and playwright Alfonsina Storni Martignoni who happened to commit suicide drowning herself on the shores of Mar de Plata the 25th of October, 1938. In fact, the song talks about her suicide in a very delicate and respecting way.

[argentguy]

Music is by Ariel Ramírez, a top Argentine folk composer; lyrics by Félix Luna, a renowned Argentine historian.

[mottelelevi]

Right. Feliz Luna has written the text, Soy argentino yo tambien. :-)

[JolieShoulamite]

Cristina Branco l'interprète également superbement. A écouter sur YouTube :-D

[JolieShoulamite]

[kurtkaufman]

I'm especially impressed with the M. Cohen's voice/bass performances; the listener is meant, perhaps, to take a more active internal role in "realizing" the implied harmonies. When he accompanies himself on the piano, "what you hear is what you get", and while it's pleasant, it's not quite as interesting. Thanks for posting these clips!
