Clark Terry and Louie Bellson: Improv Workshop

[epasurr]

They way Louie talks about soloing, you'd think he's indifferent to it because he's not good at it. Then you watch some videos on here and shit a brick house

Kudos JazzVideoGuy. Awesome. Thanks so much.

When the rhythm section says, during the sound check, "I can't hear the horns," I'm sure 99 times out of 100 it's not because they need a monitor adjustment: they just need to pipe down. Besides, listening to what's going on and fitting in where you belong is the job of everyone in the band just as it is in the symphony, the choir or the chamber music ensemble. Mille grazie to Louis Bellson for saying so.

@jgrodnik elvin jones was actually one of the greatest brush players of all time.

And.... you can apply this also in "real" life. Think of people having a conversation....

Right on spot!

I'll use this video to educate some musicians if I have to play with unknown ppl. And after the gig depending on the results I'll give them the video. No other words needed ...

MASTERS !

[Saxman11290]

All you aspiring drummers out there working out your double bass drum rolls ... open up your ears and listen to what the master louis bellson is saying. The world needs more drummers with such a clear perspective on musical role that this drummer has.

[OMERTA011]

Clark Terry - one of my heros!

[StradMan37]

I LOVE Clark Terry's trumpet/flugelhorn!!! And, that cat is sooo hip, it's unreal...No one's like him, never was. You can "mumble" all ya want, but Clark's the King!
