John Scofield - Emily Remler, Stella By Starlight, pt 1

[richoboss22]

ooohhh man... thats beautifull... scofield create really good comping... and she is play incredible... this is amazing/...

[musoid]

Wow what a beautiful player she was, such a beautifully constructed solo. A lot of young guitarists could learn a lot about musicality from listening to her.

And what a sad loss.

[larry3393]

wow sensitive side of scofield beautiful

[BringBackBlues]

Amazing

[bejeeber]

First time I've seen video of these 2 great players together. The playing transcends the poor audio/video quality IMO.

you don't even know what just happened here , but you will.

[dexterb4]

[potterman83]

scofield rocks!!!!

[bedacoals]

TFP!

Regards,

[drwinkle101]

Wow, so she died at 32. that's so sad, especially as very few top female jazz guitarists have existed.

[54spiritedwill54]

i looooooove it!!!!!!

[jontahman]

Please post part 2.

[ReminiscenceHr]

What R you talking about? She was great.

[patcatyak]

one thing is for certain-she was a lot prettier than Scofield!

[quaiyr]

gracias por todo emily!!!!

[ming2006]

i want to hear the complete John's solo

[angeloamericano]

Emily did great and stood toe to toe with Scofield and came out proud.

[MauroPavanelli]

She´s was much better. Always!

[jkip44]

Somewhat true that Emily possibly doesn' do her best on this vehicle. She still was a great player, all things don't lend themselves equally regarding chord changes et al.

[bluenotesoul]

wow, man. Sco is laying it WAY back

[99ZARDOZ]

great stuff again from Emily Remler.

what you are talking about string bending for I don't know

since when do jazz players bend strings anyway.

she is up there with scofield (one of the best players in the world) on the stage matching him for technique, ability and expression - that is all you need to know

[MontgomerylandFunk]

FYI Sco bends the shit out of his strings on a regular basis. Many greats have been known to bend ocasionaly (even Wes). But you're right in saying that it's alot less common in jazz than other genres.

[GaryNull]

Carlton, Reitenour, Benson . . all bend strings . . and are great.

Her playing sounds like scales exercises . . she has no feel. BORING

[Tweekerhead]

Yeah....she can't bend strings.....she don't need to....she owns Stella! Owns it!

She's bad ass mofo dude....you must not know anything about music....

[GaryNull]

she can't bend strings . . haha

yawn yawn

[gouliwooz]

for your information, flat strings are fatter (011, 012, 013...)than the "rock" ones (008,009). you can bent about a tone in B an E. its not possible, not just difficult. if you don't know don't comment. now go listen uriah heep...

[GaryNull]

I play the bass and I bend the fucking strings, . . lol.

Get a life Jack.

[gouliwooz]

for your information again flat gauge strings are heavier than the others. is you tune them in normal tune there is big pressure. it's like tuning your bass minor 3rd higher. and i can bend bass strings but i can't bend flat gauge strings. do you know a thing or just messing around?

[MontgomerylandFunk]

if string bending is all you took away from this performance I feel sorry for you.

[GaryNull]

cry away, lol

boo hooo

[MontgomerylandFunk]

Go back to watching Blink-182 videos. It's annyoing to read peoples' ridiculous comments, especially when they're shit talking some of the greatest musiciens in recent years.

[jeremyfonseca7]

hahahah blink 182..!! ahhahahaha lmao

i could not agree with you more.

[patcatyak]

you sound like a nitwit. I have 10 + guitars with 10-52 for Les Pauls and Strats while 12-56 for my archtops. You just don't bend strings 3-4 chromatic steps w/ an archtop w/ 12's or 13s while I do it regularly in some positions w a strat or Paul.

[mjtsl]

yes, i can agree with all of you that emily remler was an untapped jazz diamond that left us too soon. also that grp is a bit over the top in not just asia but everywhere, except perharps in europe where the best jazz is still heard.

love to see more emily remler vid, i never got to know her personally but i sure loved her work and style. no flash, just lots of substance.

[junneexx]

sad to say that emily is not popular to the filipino jazz artists,its because grp is more popular here than bluenote..I have her video lessons which I bought in Taipei,I guess Im the only one who's got it here..I love her style, I even had a composition for her,it has brazilian taste.Its called Emiremly

[sanderzuni]

Emily!,...great woman,pretty and so talent!,......I think she is perfect,I would falling in love from her!!!!!!!

[Chordwayze]

Great playing. But the video is breaking up. Is it y/tube? My PC? or AOL again?

[William102582]

i looooooove it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[X81P8]

It's the first time I have the opportunity of listening to Remler. Amazing!!! Incredibly lucid ideas. Thank you so much, jazzster123 =)

[lkb3rd]

Scofgield always does that. He is a great player for sure, but to me he seems to be trying too hard to "jazz it up," and tends to take the tune away from what it is in a simpler form. He definitely has a recognizeable style, which i commend him for.

[caponsacchi1]

Schofield either doesn't know the tune or is making up his own version. It's not happening until Emily's solo. I'm glad she later went back to the Wes sound and got rid of that weird underwater phazer reverb or whatever it's called.

[Utubestir]

I met Emily in 1977 in New Orleans when she became my teacher thru the Filberto studio.she was brilliant, motivated, motivating, and it broke my heart to lose her.....she taught me more in 3 lessons than a whole year at an unamed hollywood gtr school.....she had a fusion band with the great Steve Mazakowski then (Fourplay)...she loved both Pats ...

.....I miss her a lot.............S.P.

[bobster1250]

Hi, check out the website allthingsemily. Please contribute to the site, since were lucky enough to know and take lessons from the great Em. Take care

[minor7b5]

Thanks for the tip on the website. Going to check it out right now. She was a greeat friend, jazz guitarist & teacher. Got an interesting story to tell y'all about how I met her.

[mothermoore]

I belive emily was still growing as an artist when she died. If you listen to her few records starting with firefly 1981 to east meets wes 1988 its clear she was advancing. For those that are not aware she did an album with Larry corell called together- a very very good album - serious chops.

[mwjazzman]

I wrote the company who has the rights to her videos I'll post their response. If lots of people write I bet they will put those videos in re-print sooner than later.

[Guitarschmoozer]

She sure was great. She should've stayed off the junk.

What a waste.

[tvphobic]

I saw Emily at the Willow way before this, but here she shows how much she had developed. I agree she listened to Metheny, but check how she segues from one Pat to another (Martino) from, say, 2:37 to 2:47 ! She was on her way to being an original.

[kungfuaxe]

I was at this show and it meant so much to me that Emily was smoking at this show! Long live Ems!!!

[Jazzbug77]

Emily was in my harmony class when we were at Berklee in the late 70's - I didn't know her well, but I can tell you her look sure did change, she used to wear jeans and these big brown cowboy boots. I really haven't heard here since then and she sure did come a long way, she sounds like she listened to Scofield and Metheny a lot, who was teaching there the first year we were there - I even have Metheny Goodrick live duo tape somewhere - gotta digitize that soon!

[mrlucky66]

You right about that!, except that I think it was 1991. She played a dazzeling solo and she looked so good, I wish It was a better quality. Really good to have another Emily video, thanks.

[v2vroth]

Wow the world lost a great player in 1990 when Emily passed on.
