Tal Farlow Yesterdays

[gabri3l367]

Ne ho sentiti tanti di chitarristi jazz , ma alla fine torno sempre da Tal Farlow e da Jimmy Raney. Perchè ? Per tanti motivi che sento dentro....

[Humanrightsforall1]

He had all the harmony chops. But his hands were fucking massive!

[HeavensSeeker1]

2:18 WTF?

[danilomarrone]

RIP Tal! Thirteen years ago today.

Tal was amazing, and I would love to have the gibson 350 with the Charlie Christian pick up he had on the cover of the LP The Swinging Guitar Of Tal farlow from the '50s. I love that record.

[railcar123]

Yeah Eddie Costa was good! I loved how he always played his solos in the lower registers too.

[gabri3l367]

Il grande TAL FARLOW !!!!!!

[steveg2223]

Tal Farlow had the largest hands I've ever seen. I cannot imagine where the trio of Tal Farlow, Eddie Costa and Vinny Burke could have taken their bright, alive music, had Eddie Costa not died. The two albums, "Fuerst Set", and "Second Set" are monsters. Fuerst Set was recorded in Ed Fuersts' apartment.

[rodcrippler]

man this guy can go from his usual West Montgomery style to sound like a young Pat Martino, wow!

[gabri3l367]

Prima di andare a letto mi sento questo grande chitarrista. Uno dei miei preferiti .IL GRANDE " Tal Farlow ". Tecnica abbinata alla melodia con grande logica e swing a go go.....

[lindsayava]

eddie costa swingin hiss ass off!!

[watanuki1207]

It's very recently that I know who Tal is.About.....several months ago?But I realized what Jazz is,and seems to me to know it.(I'm not sure.)I want the man who doesn't know as to such ganeration like he to listen it but it's one time.I've touched a little aspect of Tal's jazz.I'll continue to try to find what music it.(You say it's impossible?)

[jamboliboli]

@watanuki1207

Is English your 2nd language?

[watanuki1207]

@jamboliboli if you believe so,it'll be true.Don't seek as to me...lol

[deepkeel65]

Came for Tal, but all three are just off the hook!  Incredible!

[gabri3l367]

Grande interplay !!!! Bisognerebbe ricordare che 10 o 15 anni prima dei grandi Bil Evans , Miles Davis, John Coltrane , ect... si suonava già in un modo molto evoluto !!! Tal Farlow ; Eddie Costa ; Vinnie Burke ; ect....

[gabri3l367]

Incredibile Tal Farlow !!!!!! I ragazzi giovani devono ascoltare questo grande chitarrista e capiranno cosa significa JAZZ

[snipersas]

tal is the man. listen to this crazy shit, yo

[sgcim]

As great as this version is, the same three guys played the same song, at the same tempo on the album "Fuerst Set" and burned it to the ground!

Eddie Costa went completely animal on his low octaves thing and it sounds like he's banging the keys with hammers!

Driving, driving rhythm.

There's still never been anyone like him other than Phineas Newborn on the piano.

He tragically died when he was only 31.

His greatest work was on his last LP "House of Blue Lights".

[PLEEMHEAD7]

This was the first E.P. I bought, I think I was about 12 ( 53 years ago) it had Broadway on the other side. I remember taking it to school when we were asked to take our favourite record in, the teacher was very dismissive....' a tuneless racket.....a waste of good vinyl etc' I never got to see him live unfortunately. He was a Signwriter when he wasn't playing, just think there must be people in the USA that have signs written by the giant hands of one of the greatest ever guitarists. Amazing

[franco6719]

I mean the "drums"..

[franco6719]

But that's TAL on the drums!

[franco6719]

Tal was playing "horn lines" before the horn players!! ;) He also cheers me up for some reason.

[MrBillpeterson]

Is he, Tal still playing?

[brutalballs5]

@MrBillpeterson Sadly, no. He died in 98.

[lgcats]

@brutalballs5　I feel very sorry to hear that and feel some contentment to know that he lived his musical life to the age of 98.

[G0DW0M4N]

@lgcats

He died at age 77 in 1998, you just misunderstood the post haha. However he was truly talented and his death was a shame.

[stormbouy]

@MrBillpeterson sorry man...Tal died..yeah in 98 i think

a great loss to us all

[bitcheznhos]

weeb weeb beeb bap bap a looooba ! ! ! ! swingin ! !

[diz52nd]

what a player

[houseofcharm]

One of the great masters.

[bigeggone2007]

my dad played with and was good friends with tal.ive heard a lot of funny stories..rip tal.

[haotaichichuan]

Let's not forget the amazing bass playing of Vinnie Burke who really anchored the trio.

[brendab614]

@haotaichichuan -  thank you..Vinnie is my dad!!

[danilomarrone]

@brendab614 Wow! That is amazing. Your dad is just as inventive as both Tal and Eddie. He started out as a guitarist, right? That explains his melodic style and unerring timing and sense of swing. The Tal Farlow Trio with Eddie and your dad is simply the most inventive and swinging jazz trio I've ever had the pleasure of hearing.

[danilomarrone]

The piano player was the amazing Eddie Costa who died tragically in a car accident. He was also an amazing vibes player. Tal, of course, was a genius. These recordings from the his trio in the 1950's are sublime.

[bassbob42]

@danilomarrone I never knew him but knew his family. He was an amazing guy that did tragically have his life cut short. A great loss for the family and music

[bassbob42]

@danilomarrone It was very tragic, I knew his daughter. A huge talent was lost.

[danilomarrone]

@bassbob42 It's such a terrible loss when amazing talents die young. Eddie had a style all his own. Thank goodness for these immortal recordings. The album that this song is from is entitled "Tal" and is my favorite jazz album. It still turns my head around.

[algerosa]

who s the piano player?? awesome!!

[ALEXZANDERMEJ]

2:18 BEST EVER!

[brutalballs5]

ahhhaha, nice! I'm glad someone caught that.

[ALEXZANDERMEJ]

to funny is that you in that pic lol ahahah

[brutalballs5]

haha nah, just some random picture from google images

[austingunsmoke]

Quick quick quick and clean

[lifeemusicelife]

My favorite guitarist of all time... God he was just so gifted... makes me feel kinda defeated at times, but that's how it goes... go TAL ole boy GO!!!!!

[AllknowingGuitarGuru]

You'll get no argument from me. Although I'll just counter and say that between Wes and Tal, my favorite of the two is whichever one I'm listening to at the time.

I mean no insult or disrespect to the guitarist of his generation, but he was hands down the best of the pack for skill and creativity. And he just kept pushing the limits of the instrument. I wish there were more live vids of him.

Don't feel defeated. You can hear that Tal was always pushing his limits... follow his example... :)

[taagteam]

So clean!

[stormbouy]

unfuckingbeleievable version of yesterdays...r.i.p Tal

[biscutsdad]

"Killer piano solo" is by Eddie Costa....left life much too young........

[brutalballs5]

I've been looking for who that piano player was, Thank man!

[biscutsdad]

That may be the most amazing solo I've ever heard.....he's on several Mundell Lowe albums....see if you can find some....
