Jim Hall-Bill Frisell Duo - "Big Blues"

[ReluctantSpider]

The lick: 2:56

[johnm14]

Don't worry guys.. I'm definitely not gonna steal that lick at 2:56

[zthetha]

Nice raggedy piece which sounds at times like Sco put in a few licks behind the scenes

[jimbomonjeau]

hall > frisell

"I can't enjoy this because I'm expending too much energy worrying about which one 'wins.'"

You "win" at music simply by playing. You can't "beat" other people... it's not Guitar Hero.

I have a fever, and the only prescription is more frisell

[pyannaguy]

F? Interesting - not generally a jammer's favorite key on guitar. Of course, old guys like me will remember, say, "Honkey Tonk Pt. 1" by Bill Doggett. I always figured that was partially to accomodate the sax man to follow.

The descending chords (Ab-G-Gb-F) always remind me of the pattern from "Coming Home."

[jackdelawack]

nice groove gentlemen!!!!!

[mrlipowicz]

Great respect for Jim Hall (like him so much), however to my mind Frisell is one of the most amazing and original artists ever. He can mix jazz, blues, bluegrass, folk all together. All that with true delicacy and feeling!

By the way there is a great documentary about Bill here on the YT.

[guitarjuncky2]

Dr. Hall!!!!

[danlovesnan]

two legends

[videoman4450]

Jim Hall - what can you say -- when you're hip, you're hip!

[matthewhenson1]

Moving away from guitarist-guitarist comparisons, I think Frisell's style is very similar to Thelonious Monk's in many ways - musically I mean obviously!

[countdumas]

@matthewhenson1 Michael Tsarion is the worlds premier conspiracy researcher/lecturer/author. Dr. Bill DEagle, Jordan Maxwell, Leo Zagami and Alexandre Dumas pere are highly informative as well. p.s. Melting Euphoria is similar to Ozric Tentaclnes and Gong.

[matthewhenson1]

@countdumas Haha what the hell is all this?

[ChadizzleFoshizzle]

This is like the first time i've heard Jim Hall play anything really close to fusion, He's just so amazing, and what is he like a hundred? He still got the funk in him.

[uabazz]

There's a very great audiophile vinyl LP now of "Big blues"!

I've just pre-ordered it at martinrecs com Maybe someone has it a better price ... but didn't find yet

(:

[Tezman82]

This is where it's at...

[Junnage]

This is true music.

[doublearejazz]

wow - jim hall - father of modern guitar !

man, great playing - great aesthetic !! - ..frisell .."does not come with" -> "out of court" :-(

thanx 4 posting jaybeearr !

[NateParton]

good stuff.

[notatooma222]

Jim hall is a "musician's musician" that everyone from Metheney to scofield mention often. He is one of the more versatile of guitarists out there and has been for a REALLY long time. He's great! Of course frisell is great too.

[Bullock0099]

Jim Hall taught both Sco and Frisell...So maybe Sco sounds a bit like Jim Hall...

[4578a]

Don't disrespect Bill frisell or we'll be smelling the perfume of a critics burning flesh. I'm not sure who that other guy is but he's pretty good too!

[jazzbox50]

jim was trying to make bill sound good

[Sandemose]

...as much as your comment made you look smart...

[jazzbox50]

i love bill,one of my fav-players but jim is such a nice man and a giant and lets the

younger players have there due.i was not

puting bill down at all.

[unclejunglebass]

jim hall sounds a bit like sco hear. sorry if that offends anyone; i dont listen to much hall but lots of scofield.

[4578a]

[unclejunglebass]

[jazzbox50]

sco listened to jim hall.jim has been around before he was born.not trying to

be rude,but thetruth.

[unclejunglebass]
