It seems like eric always messes up on the last note of every song he plays. He is one of the best trumpet players i have heard but he either hits the note and it doesnt play its full length or it is not the right note.

This cat can play, and he has the credentials. Anyone who doesn't like what he's doing and can't stand to look at him (Maynard was no Cary Grant either), is free to turn it off and do it their own way. How boring music would become if we all had to play trumpet the same way. There's room for every style and approach to the instrument. Perhaps the haters should spend less time watching YouTube, and more time PRACTICING!
I PLAYED W/ EM IN THE DUES BAND @ BERKLEE...BOTTOM LINE...WE'RE TYPING AND HE'S PLAYING...EXCUSE ME...WORKING...MAKING MONEY TO PLAY...WHAT A CONCEPT !!!
man I just wanna see who all these people are that bashing on Eric...he's one of the most talented and humble players ever! Anybody who can play a horn would know that. There's are reason all you hater-nobodys are watching HIM on youtube! ha a little funny to me...
Look I don't know enough about Maynard but I am curious, forgive my ignorance. Was this guy one of Maynards proteges or something? Wow.. holy scretching..
@LLJtbone he was the lead for maynard, buddy rich, woody herman and others, but mainly buddy and maynard. he was the lead for the sammy davis jr. band at age 14.... i just saw him in concert in hawaii two nights ago.... unreal....
faster faster faster thats all you can go on about face the fact this guy can play notes us trumpet players only dream about and in tune with the right amount of vibrato i would love to hear all you lot doin it live on stage LOL
I love how Eric acts just like Maynard did. Every time he takes the horn off his face, he does the same thing Maynard did. Great trumpet player. Definitely one of the greatest.
True. In the album version, Maynard takes it kinda normal speed. But I read that when he did it live, he and his band would see how fast they could take it.
Would really love to hear Eric play something simply with lyricism and passion as an interpretation of a song in his own style. It could be well known standards to start with followed by his own music if possible. Copying Maynard is good for the stratospheres but there is more than copying- one needs to develope what is all his own - I am sure it will come with time. Sometimes- sublime understatement makes a good player great above all others.
When I first saw this guy I thought he was bad and he needed to get his owns sound and music, but then i learned that by his second year of playing he could play a high g, thats good for anyone, and he learned to play from maynard recordings
I try to keep away from editing or removing comments, because I think we're all entitled to an opinion. However, that being said, there seem to be a number of inappropriate ones that do need to be removed. Sorry guys and gals..
that's a guy?!?!?! regardless...."it's" pretty good. good range. work with ur band about staying together. if it's too fast...SLOW IT DOWN!!!! better to be slower and clean the fast and dirty. not bad, though.
@northshore7x i was in mckinleys band from 86-89, they should really change the name of the band room to the eric miyashiro band room. He is an amazing player, i still have recordings of him playing tartini w/the hawaii youth symphony and his own brother told me he used Mr. Hamms eflat trumpet and played hadyn trumpet concerto in his 3rd year of playing in the eigth grade all 3 movements. he is truly blessed and even when he sat in with our quintet, he had no ego while all our jaws dropped.
It was very good. He is a very good trumpet player! He did have a litle hard time finding the last note. Overall, I felt that it wasn't together that well. It is a very difficult piece to keep together and they did a really good job!
i thought it was funny his teacher at the university of hawaii talked about how this guy would be the guy at the feild shows who screamed like crazy.... but he played the entire field show and octave up and the he said he was a weird kid soooooooooo......
Of COURSE there there will never be another MF... In this clip, Eric should concentrate on holding out the phrases just a BIT longer... and perhaps a haircut and put on a nice suit. Maynard was always a sharp and classy dresser (as was Buddy Rich and other leaders) WOW what a tribute and a GREAT performance! Just my humble opinion... EVERY night is different when you are ON THE ROAD...
I actually think this was a good cover of a difficult and brilliant song. This song is done well not just because of Eric only but because of the WHOLE BAND.Maynard's successful approach to music it seemed to me was to have great performers that had the same goal...Make great music.The players in both bands are very talented. I record live and studio music and it's great to record a stunning take.Thanks for the video
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
There are many brilliant stars of the trumpet out there; for some reason, they leave GOOD TASTE in the dressing room when they take the stage. It's as if good taste and musicality don't apply to them. Their solos are demon-like, loud and tasteless, filled with upper-register runs and notes that defy definition. Eric is one of those pathetic creeps giving lead players a bad rep.
Gotta disagree with you about Eric. Give It One, was always about being more "showy" than playing it straight as written. I think his lead playing with Buddy's band was really spot on. And his cd's that he's released, with some MF covers but also a number of original arrangements, are really strong. You might give a listen to the youtube clip of him playing Over the Rainbow.
He needs to stop trying to be someone else... There will be no other maynard. Hes great, can't say he isn't. Just stop trying to imitate someone down to there last note and body movement... And ouch to that last note lolllll.
no i just saw eric tonight at a MF 80th birthday bash and this guy is aas close to maynard as anyone will come!!!!!! Well maybe not anyone but hes not a wannabe
have to agree for one simple fact, unlike many high note Maynardish players Eric can actually solo. People often forget that Maynard can do more than play big and high. There will never be another Maynard but he's still a hero to many trumpet players, so don't expect people to stop emulating the MF sound.
you know i honestly think Eric is a better player than Maynard however Maynard did come up with some great takes on a lot of different tunes that no one can rival
Eric is a better player technically...But what makes Eric interesting, or stand out. Amazing player, no doubt, but sometimes with Eric, he seems so focused on nailing everything that it's hard to hear his character. And not just Eric, but a lot of modern trumpet players.
you do not understand what Maynard was about. it wasnt about being the most technically proficient at his instrument. he was about having fun making music, and playing with soul. He sounded the way he did not because he couldn't sound the "clean" way but because he wanted too. You can't compare Maynard to his lead players or any other trumpet player for that matter. It's like comparing two oranges from different groves. Both may taste good, but in a completely different way.
EXACTLY mynameisdan. I'm glad somebody else understands. MF was an amazing musician but he was about enjoying music and playing fun songs. He teaches the lesson that you don't have to play 16th note runs triple tongued to make a good song.
I think if you were to ask Dave Stahl, I already know Wayne's answer, it would be that MF was the absolute BEST. While I will agree that his stamina and playing did decline near the end, give me a break! The guy was in his 70's! And even then, he still didn't just "squeak" in the upper register. He could still cover a band if he wanted. But even his 50's and 60's, his playing was ungodly. Don't kid yourself. For sound, accuracy and stamina in the upper register.. he was the best ever.
Seriously? First of all, Maynard was NOT a lead player. He was a squealer. He had a lead player in the band...you can't compare Maynard to Bergeron or Stahl, because HE WASN'T A LEAD PLAYER. Maynard will forever be remembered because he made the TRUMPET popular in ROCK MUSIC, something UNHEARD of in his time. Maynard was an innovator, a legend. You can't talk badly about him until you really understand what he did for trumpet players everywhere. This comment is completely uninformed.
Seriously gbrahler I agree with you 100 % , there was only one Maynard, what a great pleasure it was to get to meet him and hear him play the trumpet.
Maynard invented the genre that others only imitate.
While MF didn't play a lot of lead, he certainly could. In the 50's he was the first call trumpeter for Paramount Pictures. Also, give a listen to Buddy Bregman's album Swinging Kicks. The first number he covers the lead line with Conrad Gozzo... but up an octave.
Just because he plays up doesnt mean he's a lead player though. He did occasionally play lead with some groups but it just wasn't his bag. He was a solo scream trumpet. You can hear his best example of lead playing on the Kenton in Hi-Fi album. He's a good lead player, but you can tell that what he did with his bands is where is bag was.
Maynard was actually a very good lead player. Listen to him on the Shorty Rogers Big Band recordings of the mid 50s. That brass section sounds so good because of Maynard. Anyone who has any doubts about Maynard's abilities should see the video of him with Stan Kenton on the Ed Sullivan show. Amazing.
better than maynard??? in his prime????? you gotta be kidding me!!! Lets see if their prime lasts half as long as his, and, to be sure, they will b eat their chops to death trying to sound like this guys did every day of his life, even well past 70. The Hession thing is a joke....and he would be the first one to tell you exactly that.
To me, Bergeron, Stahl, Hession, and Miyashiro all sound as good as Maynard, if not better than he did (even in his prime). They each have characteristic sounds, though. There's not a whole lot of point to trying to compare them directly as who sounds the 'closest' to him. The only time they really want to emulate his sound is at MF Tribute Concerts. When they're on their own, they'll play how they see fit I figure.

I think if you were to ask Dave Stahl, I already know Wayne's answer, it would be that MF was the absolute BEST. While I will agree that his stamina and playing did decline near the end, give me a break! The guy was in his 70's! And even then, he still didn't just "squeak" in the upper register. He could still cover a band if he wanted. But even his 50's and 60's, his playing was ungodly. Don't kid yourself. For sound, accuracy and stamina in the upper register.. he was the best ever.

Maynard was one of the greatest. End of story. You may need to belittle others to make yourself feel good, but Maynard will always be great.

Seriously? First of all, Maynard was NOT a lead player. He was a squealer. He had a lead player in the band...you can't compare Maynard to Bergeron or Stahl, because HE WASN'T A LEAD PLAYER. Maynard will forever be remembered because he made the TRUMPET popular in ROCK MUSIC, something UNHEARD of in his time. Maynard was an innovator, a legend. You can't talk badly about him until you really understand what he did for trumpet players everywhere. This comment is completely uninformed.

Seriously gbrahler I agree with you 100 % , there was only one Maynard, what a great pleasure it was to get to meet him and hear him play the trumpet.
Maynard invented the genre that others only imitate.

While MF didn't play a lot of lead, he certainly could. In the 50's he was the first call trumpeter for Paramount Pictures. Also, give a listen to Buddy Bregman's album Swinging Kicks. The first number he covers the lead line with Conrad Gozzo... but up an octave.

Just because he plays up doesnt mean he's a lead player though. He did occasionally play lead with some groups but it just wasn't his bag. He was a solo scream trumpet. You can hear his best example of lead playing on the Kenton in Hi-Fi album. He's a good lead player, but you can tell that what he did with his bands is where is bag was.

I think if he can handle the BR lead book, then he's a more than fine lead player IMO

Maynard was actually a very good lead player. Listen to him on the Shorty Rogers Big Band recordings of the mid 50s. That brass section sounds so good because of Maynard. Anyone who has any doubts about Maynard's abilities should see the video of him with Stan Kenton on the Ed Sullivan show. Amazing.

I wasn't saying he wasn't a good lead player, I said that he was a good lead player, but a lead player just isn't what he was.

better than maynard??? in his prime????? you gotta be kidding me!!! Lets see if their prime lasts half as long as his, and, to be sure, they will b eat their chops to death trying to sound like this guys did every day of his life, even well past 70. The Hession thing is a joke....and he would be the first one to tell you exactly that.

To me, Bergeron, Stahl, Hession, and Miyashiro all sound as good as Maynard, if not better than he did (even in his prime). They each have characteristic sounds, though. There's not a whole lot of point to trying to compare them directly as who sounds the 'closest' to him. The only time they really want to emulate his sound is at MF Tribute Concerts. When they're on their own, they'll play how they see fit I figure.
