@hommsito Shut up. Just shut up. I'm sick and tired of hearing that kids name being thrown around. I can't stand his music, so I ignore it. And yet, idiots like yourself keep making assumptions about the musical tastes of the people who 'dislike' a video. Maybe they just don't like this rendition of Autumn Leaves? Maybe they don't like jazz and stumbled on this video? Maybe they accidentally hit dislike? Man, just shut up shut up shut up shut up.
Chet had a pathway, paved by geniuses like Desmond and Davis... Pathways most could only dream. I wish he had waried the path. The world, his family and music lovers would have been so much richer if he had.
people who are anti-American, say America has no culture, look at people like Chet Baker, Paul Desmond, Ron Carter and Steve Gadd, all Americans who contributed greately to American culture.
Whenever I hear Chet Baker play, I cry. I cry because he was so great, and because he couldn't beat the drugs, and because he died so tragically, and because his playing and his singing come from a special place. Here with Paul Desmond the two of them create such a thirst for more, and then I realize there won't be "More", and I cry again. But I sure feel great hearing such perfect music from such great artists. That's the ART in their music.
Yes, this is a great arrangement and band. Amazing to think that Steve Gadd played with these guys way back then AND spent the 80s with Pat Metheny's band...

I mourn that I didn't have YouTube when I was a teenage bass player because it would have made such a difference in my life. Alas...I will just have to get over it and enjoy what I can now....
Was there a 'smoother', more melodious, or more sensitive saxaphonist than Paul Desmond? Nope. Chet Baker is truly extraordinary on this recording. Jazz, the way it was/is meant to be played. -Cj the Dj
This is simply superb!!! I have these guys together with Jim Hall on Concierto - a truly beautiful jazz album - guess what I'm buying next?!?!? Many thanks for sharing this.
WOW this by far the best rendition of Autumn Leaves. I was actually looking for Coltrane's version when I stumbled on to Chet Baker's version. Glad I did.
This is being performed in F minor, (1st chord Bb minor7), instead of the 2 most commons keys for this song ,E minor [The Real Book) or Stan Getz's version in C minor. Paul 's tone is like a DRY MARTINI
This a fusion of a beautiful West Coast trumpet with a divine East Coast Alto it's just Jazz, stop analysing and listen, enjoy. It's music not science!!
It sounds so much like a modern progressive jam band (one without hippies)...except much more complex. This is a fantastic recording. So smooth. Paul Desmond... what a pimp. As long as music like this remains available... life will be cool.
Que bom ouvir o som e a musicalidade dos grandes mestres que são, e melhor ainda quando vem acompanhado da ficha técnica, não basta somente o nome do intérprete e o compositor, mas, quem acompanhou! Parabéns aqueles que se dão a esse trabalho, os outros componentes agradecem!!!
@teroberts4gospel Its a perfect song to teach the 2 tear strucuture, one mother scale and the underpinning relative minor. Once that is firmly understood we take it to other scales. This is in Ab - F minor, we studied it on Fri in Dminor-G, for sax in B minor D
@ricflairflair Bohemia after dark by the Cannonball Adderley Quintet. It's on the record "The Cannonball Adderley Quintet in San Fransisco" and the drummer is Louis Hayes. Most anything by Max Roach, as well.
@ricflairflair You mean similar style? Check Cobham's stuff, though slightly less subtle. Or for incredi-shit check Tony Williams early years.....Blows your mind
haha yeah, I think the whole r/s is frigthening in general, check Ron and Gadd after riff after 1:33. Bob james's solo was one of the first things I learned.
@ynnadssom I've been in a million bars, and have never seen Steve Gadd "showboating" in them!!!!! Heyoooo, I'm here all week folks. I had mentioned in an early post that I didn't thinke he was over the top in this and that maybe it was more the mix, but now, I have to agree with you.

When I was a child in the late 50's, 60's, my mother would leave the AM radio playing all night as I slept.

Obviously, as my first encounter with music, I thought all music afterward would be this great. I feel very very lucky, that some of my first conscious moments in life were of such a great thing. Thanks guys. Thanks Mom. RIP.

If this isn't the best version I've ever heard , I'll blow a dead dog on the side of I-20 with the channel 2 News helicopter filming it live overhead.....
The absolute coolest, grooviest, locked in part of this song is at 1:43.... it is perfection... suddenly out of nowhere the most awesome groove just appears with the slides on the bass and ...... whatever... its easily one of my favorite parts of any jazz song.... plus the rhodes makes me really horny
Gadd Zooooks! That is some fantastic drumming and Chet's trumpet is very cool....ditto Paul Desmond. All great individually and also great as a band. That's the trick. Band members actually paying attention the dynamics. Everything was so smooth that solos didn't come across as "okay it's my turn" they just flowed. Wow! what a recording session.
@harrybsings Harryb my man, I could not have put it better myself. They were playing the tune and I think they just left there ego's at the door and it clicked. What a session indeed, by the way do you sing?
Wow I was not avere of this album but this sounds Great, The two leads are lyrical and flowing and fantastic drumming by Gadd as usual and Great Rhodes playing by James. I'm of to Amazon to get this.
When i first heard this on the radio, the thing i liked was the druming,I had not heard of Steve Gadd before, i soon got the album. FAB-U-LUS. I play drums but not as good as the GREAT GADD!! The recording is great caught the drums just right, not the easiest things to record believe me.
@lapps22 It's ok lapps - no one plays drums as well as Gadd does for so many different styles of music. His sense of tempo is second to none. My guess is no one has played drums for as many big name musicians as Gadd. Btw - phenomenal performances by Desmond and Baker - I play sax but not as good as the Great Desmond.
@jimraw1 that's right jim Gadd plays all styles I play all types to, but Jazz has allwas been my bag.I read recently somewhere that Desmond was influenced by Getz's great sound, I allways thought that anyway.
I have three fave alto players Paul-- Lee-- an Bud--. i'll let you fill in the blanks. Keep on blowing an dont forget to breathe! lapps
@lapps22 when i think of that west coast cool sound, the three names that come to mind on sax are Paul Desmond, Lee Konitz and Gerry Mulligan. I wish Konitz and Desmond would have recorded more together, but I read that Konitz wasn't a huge fan of Desmond (even though he was obviously an influence for Paul.) You're right about Getz being an influence for Paul; I would also throw Lester Young and Zoot Sims in there. I guess what he didn't want to do was sound like Charlie Parker
Steve Gadd. Wow.

The absolute coolest, grooviest, locked in part of this song is at 1:43.... it is perfection... suddenly out of nowhere the most awesome groove just appears with the slides on the bass and ...... whatever... its easily one of my favorite parts of any jazz song.... plus the rhodes makes me really horny

Chet could blow his own beautiful tune - so sad he got on the speedway and blew himself out.

Gadd Zooooks! That is some fantastic drumming and Chet's trumpet is very cool....ditto Paul Desmond. All great individually and also great as a band. That's the trick. Band members actually paying attention the dynamics. Everything was so smooth that solos didn't come across as "okay it's my turn" they just flowed. Wow! what a recording session.

@harrybsings Harryb my man, I could not have put it better myself. They were playing the tune and I think they just left there ego's at the door and it clicked. What a session indeed, by the way do you sing?

When i first heard this on the radio, the thing i liked was the druming,I had not heard of Steve Gadd before, i soon got the album. FAB-U-LUS. I play drums but not as good as the GREAT GADD!! The recording is great caught the drums just right, not the easiest things to record believe me.

@lapps22 It's ok lapps - no one plays drums as well as Gadd does for so many different styles of music. His sense of tempo is second to none. My guess is no one has played drums for as many big name musicians as Gadd. Btw - phenomenal performances by Desmond and Baker - I play sax but not as good as the Great Desmond.

@jimraw1 that's right jim Gadd plays all styles I play all types to, but Jazz has allwas been my bag.I read recently somewhere that Desmond was influenced by Getz's great sound, I allways thought that anyway.
I have three fave alto players Paul-- Lee-- an Bud--. i'll let you fill in the blanks. Keep on blowing an dont forget to breathe! lapps

@lapps22 when i think of that west coast cool sound, the three names that come to mind on sax are Paul Desmond, Lee Konitz and Gerry Mulligan. I wish Konitz and Desmond would have recorded more together, but I read that Konitz wasn't a huge fan of Desmond (even though he was obviously an influence for Paul.) You're right about Getz being an influence for Paul; I would also throw Lester Young and Zoot Sims in there. I guess what he didn't want to do was sound like Charlie Parker
