I was impressed with everyone, but the bass in particular, he's good enough too play a solo all while outlining the progression enough that you could tell where he was even if you leave the room and come back in,
@be4tbybl4ck Generally, on the videos I have disliked (not this video) if I click dislike, I clicked it by accident. It is inconveniently close to the like button.
Sure! Tommy Flanagan, the eternal companion and friend of Ella Fitzgerald. I had the enormous honor of seeing both in Mexico. Incredible swing and creative power at the piano! Thx!
He's on a TON of stuff as a sideman, I don't know about much as a leader, but I'd highly reccomend Roy Hayne's "Out of the Afternoon" GREAT tunes and arrangments, and Amazing playing by Flanagan, Haynes, Roland Kirk on reeds, and Henry Grimes on bass (and to boot, I think it's one of the best recorded jazz records ever, even by RVG's already high standard)
I never used to give credit to Tommy Flanigan for being a great pianist. Sure, he played with Ella and Coltrane, but he just never seemed to jump out at me. Here, he is at his best. WOW!
@Jaysmithtrio One doesn't play with Ella and Coltrane and NOT be great. However, if you mean "dominant" or "outstanding", than I agree with you. He was no Oscar (trio buster) but a brilliant trio pianist in his own rite!
Till this day there hasn't been a drummer who made 'true' emotion through the drums, except for anger, thanks to metal bands... But still happy emotion, there's that, but you can't really feel it, and I don't think it's impossible for drums to make that... I believe it's possible, to make sadness, and etc... But if there is a drummer like that, in my dreams, then, TELL ME!
you should look at yanni's drummer Charlie Adams, he can create emotion if you will. i like this blue bossa at the faster tempo and nice use of the brushes.
I can't listen to this, it's hard... My grandfather is dying as I write, and I'm just here... Angry against myself for selfish thoughts... His body stopped producing white and red blood cells, he became paralyzed, his digestive system stopped, he's stopping... And when I saw him, he saw all the people around him, and you see him trying to talk, to communicate, but he can't... Which is sad, because he can't say his last words, I hope he gathers all his energy to talk to his wife a last time...
amazing
