this song is iconic, the bass line is by chambers is instantly recognizable intro, All the players totally lay it down in the true style of their instrument, including a motif driven up that then down for the full solo, held like a true genius. Love it.
@boudoir83 The sax solo is by George Barrow on tenor sax. It's a beautiful solo. The underrated Mr. Barrow has also worked with Mingus, Kenny Clarke, and Bobby Timmons. -Peter
Thank you for posting. I discovered today that he also did the music for the 1st season of the Six Million Dollar Man, and that he died at the early age of 42 :'(
What the hell. They know this is the lone gem on a less than decent album, so they make you buy the whole thing on iTunes to get this song. You can purchase any of the other songs for 0.99, but this one is only available through the album. Well, fuck that. I'm not paying $5.99 for one song.
@ZeldainPark ---Dude, c'mon.........a less than decent album??? Bullshit. While this is the best song on "The Blues & the Abstract Truth", the rest of the album is solid stuff too. I don't know anything about itunes (nor do I give a shit), but I'm damn glad to have this album on CD.........
@ZeldainPark Woah. Just about every moment on this album is gorgeous, beginning to end. One example amongst many: Dolphy's soaring solo on Yearnin' — gives me chills every time.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I have this on vinyl but it was badly scratched when i got the album 30+ years ago...now this is playing...nirvana!!!
This one of the five or six LPs that got my attention to the idiom of Jazz as a teenager. I was only interested in R&B and Motown until I heard stuff like this. Glad I own this great piece of vinyl. Absolutely beautiful music.
@MysteriousPainter - when you gave to me your "stolen moment" right off I thought of this classic this original captures the "stolen moment" - I like this version for you and for me too - This up tempo drives hard no letup “straight no chaser” I hope you like it your phrase immediately brought this to mind and (life turns on a phrase) beautifully so, hope you like it? I had not heard in so long thank you – be safe enjoy your life "The Ancient City” awaits your return – Enjoy
I cannot tell you how much I love love LOVE this. It's classic and sultry and just beautiful. It's good mood food for my brain after a long day. Thanks so much for sharing this with us, Syllerud!!
well, unfortunately when people post comments like that, there are some (stupid and ignorant) people who just dislike the video just to prove the comment wrong.
Thank you Syllerud! This is an interesting minor blues that has an unconvertional chromatic movement of parallel "m7 add 4, omit 5" (stacked 4ths) chords at bars 9 - 12 of the head. The composer's tenor sax solo is well constructed and deliciously played. He uses only a few motifs that are repeated in altered forms. A classic.

Eddie Lockjaw Davis also plays a Oliver Nelson arrangement of Stolen Moments on a c.d called Stolen Moments.Notice how Eric Dolphy plays more inside on flute, it called for the minor blues so it was played more traditional.
hey could some one tell me what the chord changes are during the solo. My Real book says c minor blues but I'm not sure what that means with the harmonies the keyboard and bass are laying down, thanks
@Syllerud AAAAAAActually. Just to be a bit more picky, these are the preferred changes for a minor blues which most of the masters play (Ray Brown, Miles, Coltrane, etc. with slight variation)
|Cm7|Cm7|Cm7|Cm7 C7alt|
|Fm7|Fm7 | Cm| A7#11| <----------This chord is super important and often overlooked. Listen to recordings...it's in there!
|Ab7|G alt| Cm7 Am7b5| Dm7 b5 G7|
These are the true minor blues changes in jazz. Good luck!
@guitarrahombre This song is based on the C dorian scale (C-minor with raised 6'th, 2nd mode of the major scale). Guess i would simply play C dorian, F dorian, and G altered scale. But c'mon misteredwino, give us some more ;)
@Syllerud Those scales work, but play the changes (chord tones)! Over the G7 alt play and F# major scale but just raise the root resulting in: G-G#-A#-B-C#-D#-E#-G!! you'll hit all of the extensions of G7 alt. with this scale. Once you play the scale tones in C minor, try playing chord tones a whole step up so you have C-Eb-G-Bb-D-F-A , which is a Cm13 chord! Do the same for Fm. Have fun! Peace
@guitarrahombre Check out my reply to syllerud. I like to play arpeggios over changes, and superimpose chord tones, but that's just my style, and you can hear the changes better in your soloing that way. There are so many scales you can play, but it's harder to sound good using scales because there are too many notes to choose from moment to moment. Stick with outlining the changes. You'll hear it! Peace
@misteredwino thanks for the advice I'd learnt that g super locrian scale a while ago but i didn't know what to use it for thats really cool to think of all the notes as the extensions
@misteredwino but that's a matter of taste, reason why i like to think of scales, aka. the modal approach to soloing (so what i.e.) is becaused you further away from the tonality and the chord changes, exploring the melodic possiblelities instead of flying up and down of the chord changes! But agian, that's a matter of taste? I'd prefer Bill Evans while another prefer Oscar peterson for this, like i'd prefer John Coltrane/Miles Davis modal music to Charlie Parker/Gillespie.
@Syllerud That's cool. I'm really into Kurt Rosenwinkel, but also Wes Montgomery. But I still take the harmonic approach to everything. That may be why I play about 3-7 gigs a week during peak season as well!! Scales just confuse me when I play. I like to make up my own scales when I play outside, and then resolve to the chord tones. Have fun with your jazz studies. I'm glad that you enjoy playing jazz like I do. Peace.
@misteredwino those are altered what u have there thats not the "true way" as u call it....there are a few different versions of just that 1 you have up there are,thats just an option!
@BlackScorpionNation Not sure which comment you are referencing, but yes I'm sure there are many different ways to play different forms in jazz. But, now we're just splitting hairs at this point. Cheers
@tombokickass No, it's a C dominant 7th chord with a #11, b9, #9, b13, or some combination of those. Depends on what the chord player feels like, and what the soloist is playing!
@misteredwino so its C E G + extensions etc. - but a major 1 chord doesnt really make sense in a minor key? especially straight after a minor 1 chord? Or do you just sort of not play the third of the chord?
My God, I hope they leave this up. This is one of Oliver's finest compositions. I actually got turned onto this song when it came off the Dream Deferred Album in 1976, and it has never left my soul. " Stolen Moments " was a perfect title to this number. Close your eyes and it takes you to another realm.
@Longshotsblues 2:36 and on...seriously. It just sounds terrible to me. Is he playing like 1-4-5 arpeggios? It's not a 12 bar blues dude...whatever. I don't see any musicality in that section.
@samprobear Okay well it's a minor blues, whereas what I'm hearing is major 1-4-5 arpeggios. And the technical justification for the section isn't really what I'm going for anyways. It sounds dumb and not melodic to me and it doesn't add anything to the solo or its direction (in my opinion).
I had the insight when I was a teenager to purchase this album! I still have it as of 2011. I use to practice Oliver's solo. It was so technical and thematic. Excellent music by a great composer/arranger. I also played with Freddie Hubbard on a number of occasions.
I had this record many years ago in my younger life but it's long gone now. I'm going immediately from here to Amazon and download this track. That saxaphone solo sounds simple but is deceptively complex, one of my favorites.
Hi, just heard Oliver Nelson on the radio, I had never heard of him before, but it was so good that I had to come to youtube to find out more about him. So thanks for this fantasitc track too, and now I think I will go and buy this album!! Thanks again for posting
OK, this is Oliver Nelson's own recording of Stolen Moments. Hard to find this on You Tube among the collection of covers by everyone from Eric Dolphy to high school jazz bands. This is still the definitive version.
@tedsini Thank Goodness. I got cramps typing on comments on another mis-labeled post that was actually Eddie 'Lockjaw' Davis with Oliver's big band. I have both on vinyl. This IS "Stolen Moments". So glad to have finally found it on YouTube. Thanks

@tedsini Eric Dolphy actually plays on the original and he never recorded another version of Stolen Moments as far as I know. If you happen to know of one please forward the link to me... And YES, this is the definitive version, AMEN!
