@GeneralEisenhower Uhhh... from what I was taught, he would not be using any particular scale throughout the whole song, but rather many different scales, each one dependent on the chord that is being played. So he'd have many different scales and modes.
although this clip was brought to my attention as 'music to be ignored', it definitely shouldn't be. these guys are great, especially gary. still smokin' after all these years.
Why don't they play Happy Birthday? Those idiots yakking would never know the difference. I hate to play these type gigs. Usually I'm filling in for someone who is sick or something. Why they want live musicians at these functions is beyond me. Play the iPod through the house P. A. system. These braindeads would never know the difference. Geez, don't everyone applaud at once. What a drag, but it pays the rent. Art for art's sake. Money for crissake.
the problem with these corporate gigs(which sounds like it is with all the chatter in the background) is that it makes really good musicians like these seem a little bored which makes them a little complacent and therefore probably shouldn't be posted up there with greats like Jim hall. His version with Ron carter is my favorite.
Well done my group is almost as good we played that tune at the AQ in MN but sax/bass/guitar nice solo all of you and the ending was just FANTASTIC great job.
The most on it one is the bassist, then maybe the saxophonist. Guitar needed to loosen up - i guess it was because he was reading the sheet. Great sound over all
Im in a premier jazz ensemble with Gary and Jeff both!

Sounds really great. Especially L-5! Their harmony is very impressive. I love this tune.

Weird. I studied in that library for four years and I never noticed there was a jazz trio playing.

If you play jazz you can play autumn leaves in any key.
