Russell Malone, Christian McBride & Benny Green - Jingles

[bestaff]

Actually Benny's doing the 16ths and Christian is on the 8ths. 5:26 through 5:48 is just straight up unnatural!

[AmundLauritzen]

Guitar, Bass and Piano trio a la Tal Farlow! Just that Russel's got his own unique style of playing. I've been looking for more music in that kind of setting. Thanks for sharing. Russel is incredible!

This is a stellar performance. Thanks Sam for hipping me to it. I've seen these guys live before and videos rarely do justice but this one comes close. What an amazing drumless rhythm section this is. Time City.

[drainard]

03:05 Wow, gotta learn that counterpoint! 

[claryscat]

When you play like this you're pulling the sound out of your axe right at the edge of it not being able to give you the performance you require. Sometimes I have this daydream... like, i been seeing these guys for years since they came on the scene... think what they will be like in another fifteen or twenty years.

this only tells you that you´ll be nothing until they live

[Cyllmegil]

@sonique25

In the case you want to be them for sure. C'mon grab your bone and set the fire up !

[JazzyZenBrotha]

These cats are boss! I love this Bebop stuff! I love it!

I swear, Russell Malone and George Benson need to collaborate. They'd both start fires on their guitar fret boards.

Burning!!

[nicnut210]

holy shit. serious chops here from everyone involved. that bass solo was insane.

[originallhamfist]

@nicnut210 I just read that Louis Armstrong coined the phrase "chops."

[jetglo325]

that's getting close to Oscar level.........

[nassreiskulturen]

Did I just see that?!? Oh my god, so fucking beautiful!!!!!!

[bassface84]

These some bad dudes…

[sonique25]

this is the music that makes me want to quit guitar

[ComTruiseBand]

This is... so outrageous. How does Russell chunk so fast for McBride's solo? And how does McBride do any of that? And Benny Green's two hand stuff is amazing. I just can't believe any of this. True artistry.

[docoftheworld]

This is the music that stop wars

[keo774]

they are incredible

[keloce]

Amazing! Russell is so cool! I love the way Benny comps while looking over his shoulder at Russell. Does anyone know why he likes the piano on that side? I've seen him live before and it's the same set up.

[guitarillos]

azz...

[AndyCaru]

It should be used for a new duracell spot...

[dr05guitar]

it's just incredible what it takes to play like this

[mackyouaccount]

6:30 Here ends 5 minutes plus of quarter notes from McBride. He didn't miss a single one!

[skipheaton]

@mackyouaccount I hate to break your bubble, but they are 16th and 8th notes. Truly masterful

[bestaff]

@skipheaton  -you are correct

[jazzylover59]

So wonderful that you were able to clean this up! Thanks so much for sharing this with the fans of these jazzy guys.
