Curtis Fuller - 'Five Spot After Dark' (1959) Original not Remix

[Eufratbre]

I can't believe Murakami brought all of you. His books are read all over the world, and i probably won't see any of you in my life, but i love you all anyways. Have a nice life, and keep reading good books :)

[tnkmomo]

nice song!

[firealef0411]

¡Gracias a Haruki Murakami es que llegué a conocer esta canción! Arigatou!

[al451f]

This song appears in 1Q84? I just started After Dark.

[estarrar]

es algo adictivo la forma como escribe y entremezcla libros, musica, películas.....me encanta

[ririm68]

Yeah, "After Dark" and "1Q84"

Love you, Murakami

[Carla1895]

Murakami! :)

[evin290]

God bless Murakami for getting so many people to youtube this tune. It rocks!

[DajaWaja]

i love minor bluez

[TheFreedomFlow]

is this considered a jazz standard?

[DajaWaja]

@TheFreedomFlow yeah mein

[FelixTD]

Noticed the Habanera from Carmen's quote at 2:15?

[MissCommenting]

Murakami is my favoritt author and Curtis Fuller has always been my favoritt jazz musician <3

[frawhi65]

This is genius-style music.

[thetruevoid]

beautiful and genius, thanks to Mr. Murakami

[ric1989]

btw, fuller is the man :)

[ric1989]

mura who??

[Drumsteezy]

chord changes anywhere for this tune?

[Stephaneleo1]

@Drumsteezy Real Book Vol.2 my friend !

[jaxjagsman]

@Stephaneleo1 -- no it's not. though it might be in the Hal Leonard volume 2. but it's certainly not in the old real book vol 2.

Drumsteezy, it sounds like a minor blues. my issue is in transcribing the melody, it seemed this was in B minor. does anyone know if this is the actual key of if it was intended to be C minor and the record's flat?

[Drumsteezy]

@jaxjagsman i realized it was a B minor blues with a 2/5 turnaround i got this tune mixed up with another song i was supposed to play for a concert, thank you anyway tho :). Stephaneleo thank you both. i know the first part of the melody is a triad on B minor that extends up to the third, and the second run is a minor triad on the 4 chord which goes up to the 6th, and after that it goes (in concert pitch) A, F#, G, D - G, E, F#, C# - F#, D, B, B. at least as far as i can tell

[DajaWaja]

@jaxjagsman it is on real book 2 indeed

[jaxjagsman]

@DajaWaja -- i stand corrected. it's on the same page as another tune. i guess i missed it. my bad.

[DajaWaja]

@jaxjagsman sometimes when you downlaod a real book it lacks pages

[LeViolonDeLaMort]

I knew this song before After Dark, but that book lead me here, now.

I just can't stop listen to it.

[love4nana707]

Looks like Murakami has more fans than you could immagine! God do I love that man! And I've started listening to Jazz too thanks to him! Thank's Murakami-san! A hug from Italy!

[MirageMC]

Thanks to Murakami I'm a jazz lover. Hell yeah. : )

[chococolo]

Murakami is the best!!

[Mariotte32]

Moi aussi, Murakamisée!

[EnormeCazzoneAsinino]

whats this negro shit

[flamingacharizma]

This is one of my favorite peaces of jazz, and I also faun it after reading Murakami book. I enjoy it very much.

[FAOL82]

I just finished the first chapter of After DArk by Haruki Murakami and had to find out about the song, it is mentioned on page 25...I am really enjoying the book so far.

[MrSantino71]

Great jazz music; Haruki Murakami gave the name" Five spots after dark " to his best known book, which made this jazz musician known to more people,

(like me, that I noticed just two years ago' reading the book )

Murakami was also inspired by the famous movie " Alphaville " by J.L. Godard , year '65 ; i advise to read the book and to watch the movie

[xxpnoyjestrxx]

Read After Dark and now I'm on Kafka on the Shore. Any other books or authors similar to haruki murakami?

[OsCaReNe02]

haha casi todos estan aki por murakami.. yo voy a mitad del libro y se me hace interesante y decidi buscar la cancion... y esta padre!!

[ensaimo]

Murakami-mania :)

[unclejunglebass]

this is the first time ive heard jimmy garrison outside the coltrane quartet. steady groovin.

[unclejunglebass]

i can see takahashi groovin to this. after dark was great, and i loved it even more because it had so much jazz in it. go murakami.

[oOHandaOo]

jajaja si tambien lei el libro love it !

[ShinsenKatanaMaster]

Brought here by Murakami's fabelous book "After Dark"

Greetings from Morocco!!!

[Kalily92]

Sí, yo tambíen leí a Murakami XD.

[bartomon]

Es cierto, todo esto es influencia de Murakami-sama

[Thorus1984]

"Murakamian" greetings from Germany. ^^

[Saratresi]

(jaja), sin murakami, mucha gente no estaria oyendo esto

[Lexomark]

de ley........ maldita curiosidad de q escucha Mary.....jejeje

[ThoughtfulZombie]

@Saratresi Tenes razón jajaja

[iammashamasha]

Murakami is the best

[cha1tman]

murakaamaaaay for the laaadaaaays

[istanbluesky]

Take one murakami from me too :)

[Dexther1984]

tnx Murakami : this is awsome!!

[avivagabriel]

Sounds a lot like Curtis Fuller's 1959 "Five Spot After Dark," from "Bluesette"...at least initially...

[poopfest90210]

Amazing trombone solos

[1percent]

Re-reading After Dark.

[BuckshotLaFunke]

That softly snapping hi-hat is typically Al Harewood.

[hardbop]

@BuckshotLaFunke. Reminds me of Klook but, more relaxed. He rarely takes a solo like Klook too.

[TheVictoriaPoet]

yes, Murakami. <3

[cumatan]

Reminiscent of my young days

[sammy301084]

After Dark Haruki Murakami un gran libro

[darthmaster1987]

I looked up this song cause I´m reading Murakami's After Dark. I love that book... (MExico)

[kaintoabel]

@darthmaster1987 Yo también, estoy por terminar y esta increíble.

[nefrondo]

Finished reading Murakami's After Dark and checking out the music from the book. This one is a really good one!

[bane1190]

Anybody know what key this is in?

[Doppelgamer]

@bane1190 it's a B minor blues

[zoyablack]

reading murakami and listening to music he writes about...man im feeling like livin in the other world... love your work murakami ♥

[MsLiliMarlen]

When I reading Murakami's books I can feel hunger, lonliness, I can hear cry for love and I can feel need to be a better man. All of this is jazz, isn't it?

[awageam81]

村上春樹のアフターダークを読んだ

夜の音楽だ

[EcstaticAgony]

what a nice thought, all of us, reading the same book at the same time!

[kulturkorv]

i'm reading after dark right now.

[ddopler]

one more murakami here :)

[KawaiiNyahh]

Blame it on Murakami...

[cruzdehuanacaxtle]

Because of Murakami...After dark, one more great book, from Puerto Vallarta, México...

[jayharker]

haha, Murakami led me here too.

really, this song fits even to the scene itself.

[TangibleShadow]

Boy this song brings back memories! I used to get excited when I heard this on the radio because that meant Don McCarthy was coming on for his program, Jazz-The Abstract Truth :,D

[rockhuanglin]

wow,so many people discovered this by searching Murakami

Curtis is cool too!

[sexymisamisa]

Same here, Murakami "After Dark" great book, great song.

[AmzinaiFoje]

Love it and Murakami *_* Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami Murakami!!!!

[Dick69Hurtz]

Please upload Judyful. It is a realy great song.

[TheTaarna]

:D LOl guess I'm not the only one who wanted to see how Curtis sounds like while reading Murakami :)

[ThisIsSnowman]

Haha, good to know I'm not alone, I also searched this up after reading Murakami's "After Dark". :D

[unholy1988]

I also discovered this by Murakami, funny.

Im still finishing After Dark and i dont really enjoy it, his language is too script-style and i dont really like the way he writtes, but he is a very good writter.

[zhinshi]

@unholy1988 ...wow!!! that is unexpected...well...many might not like the way he writes...at first for me, it is so weird as well....and it can be confusing...but i like it..how do i say it...i like how it can be illogical sometimes..it's like a Topsy-turvy, twisted, and can be sinister story of some one's life...if after dark disappoints you, try other book..kafka on the shore or the wind up bird chronicle...or norwegian wood..or blind willow sleeping woman...its crazy..ahahah

[shimmeringexplosion]

I LOOOOOOVE MURAKAMIIIII

he is such an inspiration

he makes me want to learn about everything

discover myself....

[HubO59]

村上春木 !! <3
