Autumn Leaves - Stanley Jordan

[Felipe111a]

Best guitarist ever

[tastethejace]

Folks, we've just witnessed a new genre: Jazzed Metal

[datistjordan]

BLACK MUSIC ROBOT CONQUERS JAZZ

[fayen8]

Gosh ,this is morbid

[hellofart16]

@fayen8 I assume you used morbid to mean fantastic?

[fayen8]

@hellofart16 Ya,it just blew me away.His technique is not human...

[turoniner]

Homey on bass frets that shit with his thumb! Insane!

[xxrockon83]

Those asians who tap 2 guitars to the super mario bros. theme can only dream of playing this!

[ninoaditya1277]

idiot cameraman & editor at 1:58...we miss the shot of harmony part by both hands...

[KRxN11]

I used to hang out w/Stanley on 48th. This is especially for my nephew, Master Braxton & his cousin. Nicholas, both of whom are destined to become great musicians. Take no prisoners and leave no evidence!

[CrimsonDrift16]

cuz using a pick is too mainstream .. Jordan doing it like a BAWS !!

[JohnNoZ35]

Unbelievable! I know just enough about guitar to be astounded.

[nicolai2091]

final of the video sounds like jimi hendrix play with vibrato bar

[shhshell]

Who the fuck in the right mind would dislike? WHAT!?!?!

[fpgrind]

@shhshell Obviously there are people out there with no concept of how much talent it takes to accomplish what's being done in this video. But we're not watching their video are we?

[1096Bigmac]

The Bass player looks like he's in fast forward XD

[redhairedlad]

Talking about adding to the unemployment: Jordan has put TWO guitar players out of work! And those solos would be great even if he were playing just the lead. Phenomenal!

[SpaceRockRocks]

the kind of black people i dont wanna punch in the face

[Bubblefinno14]

Playing a Guitar, LIKE A BOSS.

[andredidiergijon]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG THIS MUST BE FAKE WTF WTF WTF WT FWTF

[slymattisfat]

all talking about guitare but PAY ATTENTION TO DOUBLE BASS ALSO coz this is just sick!!! what the hell is the name of this double bass player???? please help! thankx

[fedelopez87]

@slymattisfat I agree, that bloke can sure keep a groove...

[bboywutang]

@slymattisfat Charnett Moffett Is The Double Bass Players Name! Hes So Good!

[xxelxx0lixx]

awesome!

[StriderCX]

I thought I was pretty decent at guitar. I came here. I don't feel to hot anymore.

[AnvikThe]

who needs friends to play rythm guitar im stanley fucking jordan bitches.

[rinairyu]

ちょっと早足な感じが好き・・



[RedJacobin]

This was the moment when every member of the band got carpal tunnel

[Svetovidijak]

Jebote kako ovaj rastura bas o.O..

[DiamondDimebagDarrel]

@Svetovidijak elda?

[MsVace]

@Svetovidijak Dzezeri oduvek najbolji basisti

[terrario9]

Who is the bassman??

[SpinalAlloy]

I love how at 1:58, the bass player decides he's got enough attention and he wants to camera man to go to Stanley! X^D

[wesmontgomery1992]

Jordan can communicate with himself AND other musicians with both of his guitars. He is not gimmick, he is the real deal. Thank you, Stanley Jordan.

[jrayortiz1]

Blew my mind

[jrayortiz1]

I've seen this dude in cinti, ohio, you could've heard a pin drop he had the crowd eat'n it up

[kissing88]

it was so amazing that he distorted reality at the end

[LUCIOHANS]

este tipo esta en otra dimensión tremendo excelente me dejo loco jajjaj...greattt!! yeeees...

[nancydrew5]

These instrumentalist are proof that life does exist on other planets and is much more intelligent than life on earth.

[jackbarney1]

Big deal, it's a gimmick.

I'm I suppose to feel less impressed with a group who could play the same music but had one additional person on stage?

[BlaCkDeaThKarMa]

@jackbarney1 You are just jealous because you cant play like that.. loser.!

[alexbarmann]

@jackbarney1 Do you mean 'Am I supposed...'? No you are not, but I guess you can be rather impressed by this trio diggin' it...

[MizzzyMike]

I can understand everyone complementing the bassist, but lets get real. Any pro upright bassist playing with a famous jazz artist is going to be that good. What Stanley is doing...how many in the whole world can do that?

[MrGuitarbecker]

indiscutiblemente un virtuoso de las 6 cuerdas !

[jacobparasite]

Fuck flee... 2:54, thats a bass solo right there



[JorgeAicrag]

I have been told that I play like him... but i'm a little far o.O hahaha

[chxnde]

does the bassist have an iron fingers? :|

[happymeltedcity]

You should see him play a banjo.

[renato71364]

e o melhor de todos os guitarristas q conheci

[SadSmileX1]

1:56 "he the man"

[tornado882]

esse kra e bom

[blooper631]

"Dad, I want to learn piano"

"Here son, take these 2 guitars instead"

[isaiascontrabaixo]

BEST BASS.

[tishomingobluz]

In Boston this evening at Scullers....can't wait yeeey :)

[joshpaulsevenmusic]

who is the man on the upright bass :D

[guitarsville]

@joshpaulsevenmusic

The man on the bass is Charnett Moffett.

[margothillman]

It's too hyper. It makes me imagine Sinatra on speed or having a manic episode.

Ouch!

[AlwaysSomething]

It's not even funny anymore, these musicians are just exploiting the instruments. It's like breathing, shit people can't even do that right.

[MsWickedLizard]

People that "dislike" this do it just because they think they're doing the wrong thing... bahumba... ^___^

[slayerizer19]

Wow, and he ain't even Japanese...

[bman0341]

That dude on bass was getting DOWN.

[thethealaska]

@bman0341 of course he is hes playing with STANLEY FUCKING JORDAN

i would be getting down too

specially if i was playing a big ass bass like that

[mitsugishi315]

I didn't know Chris Rock played guitar

[delora33]

Most excellent!! One of my favorite songs done so brilliantly.

[FusionMusic1000]

Stanley Jordan, true genius, beautiful - a new take on tapping

[SunE6792]

Somehow I like the end of the video where it is distorted. It becomes part of the whole piece to me.

[JMBrainbuster]

I really got to ask. How, HOW can somebody dislike this? This is perfection in music!

Eu realmente tenho que perguntar. Como, COMO alguem pode não gostar disso? Isso é a perfeição na música!

[PityIntox]

Desenchufenmelo al bajista esta a 480W jaja

[johnjtheoriginal]

it's so well played that i don't think about the incredible tecnique of staqnley, and all the musicians here are great!

[DOOM666Savage]

how much more badass can you get

[FelixM946]

It's funny how the video looks speeded up xD... This piece is just great...

[jokingNZ]

put this on betcha cant play this and show up all those others hahah

[mattaroggen]

incredible

[pepo123455]

amazing



[Simplyacousticmusic]

one of the best videos I have listened too. What extraordinary talent on all instruments. As great as Stanley and Charles are Don't let the sensitivity of the drummer get lost. He is equally incredible

[keirnator]

BTW the bassist is Charnett Moffett

[jamesedwardtheobald]

80s hair and clothes

[jamesedwardtheobald]

bassist is killing it! who is that?

[Jeanbassist]

Incredible!



[mvs13I2]

bassist is my hero.

[puchlennon]

me da verguenza llamarme musico al lado de estos tipos

[dandbingermany]

Könner......................!;­)))

[JonasBridgous]

Once at the end. . . skip back to the beginning, and hear how much it speeded up !

[Sheckywoo]

I do love Stanley Jordan... he's great -- but this interpretation of Autumn Leaves is well... blah, technically impressive, not much else to it, I don't care for it... is trying to win some kind of race? -- I wonder if it would come out differently now?

[FulgDeNeaJin]

 Nice....!!

[Jestalilbit]

Mr.Jordan has been around for years. AnYtHiNg this man does is mindblowing!

[416234765]

Stanley Jordan, the man eats, sleeps and drinks guitar 24/7, at least to get that good he must have

[dodex50]

Why arent people seeing this , two amazing musicians in one video , rarely seen thing on you tube.

[Alistairvlog]

I don't even KNOW what that bassist is doing!!! Amazing musicians.

[thegamer979]

Sabados Felicitos me trajo aqui XD

[mscuerditas]

como se llama el del contrabajo?

[Adrianomz50]

mamma mia...... e um tipo louco!

[DanDocBackingTracks]

I'm shocked the bass player didn't burst into flames.

[FuckingMaravilla01]

lol Black ppl owns in every kind of music.

[christopherjames33]

this is the most incredible video i've ever watched.

[watchyourst3p]

@christopherjames33 you need to watch more stuff man.

[nxyle]

you don't see african americans like this in the music industry today...

[gitarrenweltrekord]

Stanley Jordan is unbelievable

[guigueds77]

Uma benção Deus criou esta toda virtuosidade ... Vale a pena ...

[milcio79]

WTF!!! this man is the master of guitar!!!! I've never seen anything like this before!!!

[mehmetursan]

speed jazz

[MegaCalvinHobbes]

I like Joe Pass's version slightly better, but this is just outstanding.

[guitboxchicken]

14 people are clearly soulless zombies!

[illhakeem24]

@guitboxchicken 18 PEOPLE NOW whoever doesn't like it they r haters FUCK THEM

[Emapsych]

@guitboxchicken jajajaja

[SteveinMASS]

This guy is great !!!

[jojofriend62]

I think for him it is not more then playing the piano . sick

[jojofriend62]

this is so unbelievable :D fuck everything else

[tonybloch]

O MY FUCKIN GOD. THE BASSIST IS STNALEY JORDAN'S BROTHER

[MrGuitarwrecker]

Sounds like Rebecca Black at 6:20

[tencr4z]

wtf

[cornnutsmaj7]

Cuuuute, he plays this very well, it reminds me of how bad ass Bill Evans played it. And THAT is saying a lot.

[zzausel]

@cornnutsmaj7 How different two listeners can feel music. Bill Evans played it melancholic and gentle, Stanley Jordan just the opposite. But it's a great tune, it sounds good in both ways.

[zzausel]

@cornnutsmaj7 I have to correct me. May be there was some mix in my memory. Now I heard some recordings again, and you are right.

[geoffpeterstrio]

amazing!

[cvhej]

absolutamente genial , grande stanley, é pra se ouvir e ver ajoelhado........obrigado por existires.......

cilon -----guaiba rs -brasil

[mandingowarriors]

Makes ya wanna smash all your guitars and realize you've been wasting your time

[richgilb]

These people can't be humans.

[tgy07]

BEST PART WAS 6:20 !!!

[MarkThomasMusic]

any time that I think that I'm getting pretty good, I come and listen to cats like this and am humbled immediately :)

[shushman4]

watching the guitarist made my brain hurt....watching the bassist made my fingers hurt....watching the drummer made my arms sore.......lol

[uprightbassmatt]

mind-blowing :D

[thegreedyamber]

"Mom, I want a piano~~"

"No son... here are two guitars instead."

[motorcycleguitarsolo]

@thegreedyamber

Actually... He started playing piano at 6 years old and switched to guitar at 11.

[crobilly19]

@thegreedyamber ..right on...

[GR4C3W]

@thegreedyamber haha

[diegobagdarrel]

how...how?? how the hell he do that!!! that shit is so fucking hard...how the guitar sound with no string atack!! i mean...its posible but its almost imposible to get so bright and complete sound AWESOME TECNIC! awesome drums and the bassist wow!!! a excelent perfomance!

[awasser62]

I think the bass player is Charnett Moffett. He was playing with Jordan back when I saw them in I think it was the early 90's (Jordan just released the album with Stairway to Heaven on it), and I remember being totally blown away by his bass playing.

[jvictor0]

I suppose the economy is so bad he couldn't afford to pay another guitar player.

[vonmises6]

@jvictor0 8/10 i laughed

[uthink2much]

great song, great rendition!

[RNWO4ever]

Impressive... and SOOOO boring.

[gracemessarra]

Oh how I would love to see Stanley Jordan pair up with Thomas Lang. My life would be made. :O

[AllBluesCat]

My point exactly, great player, although, he might as well of taken up playing piano

[pveg65]

He's the MAN , Period !

[jerryvalez]

time to get a piano stanley

[Myrashkang]

I'm shoked

[tombokickass]

what badmen!

[brukelian]

fucking bass!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[Teaser0424]

I first saw Stanley Jordan on KCET a few years ago.....one of the best jazz players I've heard ever...this guy can play. KCET needs to show this feature again...

[TarheelAl10]

i seriously cannot believe how good this is.

[Dvareckas]

super

[Dvareckas]

Stanley Jordan Genius!!!

[jokingNZ]

just great.lool love jazz players koz the actually KNOW what there playing lol

[MrSensei1231]

this is very good, but it ain't no asian playin the tetras theme

[placidian]

@MrSensei1231 bwahahahaha XD

[MakeTeaNotWar0]

Charnett Moffett is the bass player

[cuerpoeperra]

He´s amazing, a really great guitar player... it´s alittle sad that a lot of people try to copy this like like a north musically speaking, and forget some musical landscapes that are important too.........What i mean is that a lot of people only see "The Circus Show" or the "sporting side" of this..........

[guitarman2509]

WHO IS THIS BASSIST HOLY BLACK ON A POPO!!! D:

[DrunkOnPoppySeeds]

he's a circus freak on the chitlin circuit. For my next trick I set someone on fire and we all laughj at them

[noluv2u]

11 people are blind & stupid. Stanley Jordan is clearly in a class by himself.

[MacabreVideo]

@noluv2u may wanna check out zackkim lol... just sayin.

[soulrokkett]

@MacabreVideo why? Stanley was WAY before Zack and stanley can play anything zack can play. Stanley created the genre, zack is a copycat who plays the theme from mario bros. Give me a break.

[xgarzon]

Maestro!

[AndyMCAnderson]

FUCK YEAH!! They will be in Batumi on Black Sea Jazzfest this year! Woohooow!!!

[AngelEsterhazy]

Я восхищён этими музыкантами! Здорово!

[gussyishot]

This band is great!!!Stanley is amazing and the bases is crazy too!!!!

[bobdeeguitar]

I guess the tempo picks up a bit. Started out pretty relaxed but shot up during Stanley's solo.

[guillotinedeath]

this guy is fucken great

just 8 more likes to go for 1000

[bigolekern]

Charnett Moffet

[MegaYoshitsune]

A G3 with Stanley Jordan, Allan Holdsworth and Guthrie Govan would be, intense.

[lovetosurf94]

epic!!!



[celli88]

'co dio...

[ilContra]

@celli88 Lo dico io!! :D

[blobertisoriginal]

im in love with the drummers snare....

[indra112xj]

More Perfect = Stanley Jordan

Most Perfect = Stanley Jordan + The bassist

[HandreyAlex]

@indra112xj Stanley Jordan + The bassist + The drummer = 2012
