Ron Carter (2) - Golden Striker Trio

[BassForMingus]

Love this video and the players are all wonderful.

[bebopkayak]

Please ignore the comments below...they all start to sound the same after a while...this music on the other hand, is masterful, subtle, and intricate. It is being played consummately by three great musicians who know their instruments, the compositions, and the arrangements so well they are able to forget all about that, and create such sublime music. Give me more music, and fewer comments. For those who don't understand, no explanation is possible. For those who do, none is necessary. VivaRC

I agree with fopstra, that ron carter guy is way overrated, always plays out of tune, bad boomy basstone, clumsy 'advanced' bassplaying, DULL is the word that fits him...

You should hear ME playing, goddamn!

[ilublovovitch]

ron carter "guy?" I'll call you out - post some music!

[hess925]

trolls, in my Ron Carter? inconceivable!!!

[heddy0008]

you're stupid too...you suck

[steve01782]

check out fopstra's comment lol

[AntonelloZecca]

Fopstra, better shut up and listen to the mastery of old Ron. Maybe you can learn something about music...

[reddfoxx66]

i saw this at last year Pescara Jazz Festival. One of the best concert i've ever seen in my life

[bryonfanger]

Look up avishai cohen. I went to see him in new york. best concert I WILL ever see.

[bryonfanger]

er, that was for reddfoxx66. Carters good, but on "plain" level. I enjoy seeing what people can do with rythems.

[heddy0008]

*rhythm

[heddy0008]

you're stupid

[bryonfanger]

because I spend my time practicing rather than spelling? Excuse me. Don't get me wrong, Carter is great at what he does, What he plays isn't that catchy though.

[heddy0008]

All of Avishai Cohens music starts to sound the same after like the first two tracks you listen to.

Plus if you've ever heard Avishai do straight ahead swing his feel kinda sucks.

I agree about the fact that Ron carter's playing isn't very catchy.

Rhythm is a pretty basic word though and you should know how to spell it. Especially since you seem to be a musician.

[bryonfanger]

the same? you mean playing in 5/4 in one track then 6/4 in another sounds the same? You don't listen to that genre of music enough is the problem. Talk to your non-music intelegent friends and ask if jazz sounds all the same or Metal or anything else for that matter. It all sounds the same if your not used to it. I don't play straigh swing though. Being labled a metonome isn't my thing. (playing only quarter notes, although changing notes)

[heddy0008]

sorry to burst your bubble but just because someone is playing straight ahead jazz doesn't mean they have to play 4 quarter notes a measure.  and also it doesn't matter what style of jazz you are playing the bass player is the time keeper.

and I wasn't talking about time signature when I said the same.

[heddy0008]

While it is all beautiful music it all starts to sound the same after a while. Odd time signatures doesn't make stuff interesting if you only do that. And all the harmonic progressions sound the same after a while too.

I like it but it gets old.

and another thing about the metronome thing. If you don't have good time your not gonna get any jobs in any genre of music unless it involves a click track.

[darrenvh]

is it just me or is the piano higher notes from right to left keys? if it is, i've never seen that before

[pedro22bass]

I think there is something wrong with the syncronisation of the sound and audio.

Tricky right?..

[darrenvh]

ok because it was really screwing with my head lol, like "I play piano left handed!"

[elefantepene]

I hear joe pass

[Katajazz]

I saw them at Ronnie Scott's on the 29th of March 2007. It was cool.

[fopstra]

ron carter was always bad shit...
