Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock - Liza

[18sonyboy]

ya know when your listening to something and you just cant help but to just smile?...well this is a perfect example of that...except you smile bigger each time when you watch it and you cant smile any bigger and your mouth starts to hurt but you don't realize that it hurts until the videos over.......and then you replay the video another time and the cycle repeats itself

[ajashcash17]

WOW:))

[Johann2Lars]

Jeff Goldbloom and Denzel Washington, on piano!

[jazzpianist120]

@Johann2Lars lmao

[senootetsumi]

Amazing!Chikc　loves　Haebie.なんだね。共演している誰とも違う。雑談を楽しん­でいるみたい。artistic　variety　番組だね。二人の気持ちに共鳴してしまう。

[soaringvulture]

Hey, I sold my soul to the Devil and I still can't play as good as either of these guys. Who do I complain to?

[joe700700]

between both of them you have a chick and a cock LOL!

[ThumpMonkeyFunk]

@sometimes350... Dude... I was shocked to learn a few years ago that Herbie played with Miles Davis in '63! He was like 23 at the time... This guy does NOT look his age at all!... Apparently he's 71 now.

[AsianSmalls]

I wish people always smiled like that after they perform. That's how you know someone loves what they're doing. These two guys, well they're the shit.

[kellotherig]

love it kool man !!!!!

[grooveproject]

great performance

[satyaahimsa]

Beautifull and insane...

MOnstersS :-)

[perchst]

[sometimes350]

I really didn't know Herbie been gettin down that long

[lralbrecht]

this is out of control. its like a train wreck in which no one gets hurt and everyone orgasms.

[AlessandroFortarel]

a fantastic duo of two exceptional pianists..Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock have the perfection of the greatest pianists of classical music and the genius of the greatest composers of music

[torontoBluejays87]

:O

[seukfuhi]

This is a DUET, not a DUEL. Fantastic.

[blackvitruvianman]

Herbie plus Chick equals musical soulmates!!

[boxfordbassist]

Im sorry, but this has to be my favorite piano video on the web.

[PIANOisAMAZING99]

Anybody know what song they used to outline the progressions for in the main part?

[baudilus]

Chick has always had this uncanny sense of where someone is going with their solo and adds a little something to make the other persons solo sound better. He does it all the time and I love it.

[Shostakovicification]

check this piano solo, about three and a half minute in:

watch?v=H7Z-h-TSqzw&feature=re­­lated

[michaltrangos]

[courageux28]

[MrIlvis]

Nice! 1:40

[STEVE25406]

I was watching a Jaco Pastorius bass method video and he espoused the importance of leaning by watching.As a piano player this particular song has taught me alot .The piece could probably provide at least a semester text in jazz improv.What a clinic

[Pongalandia]

Superb! Fantastic demi god duo!Thanks for posting ds!

[Zachl0gan]

fucking insane

[TheJuliusJT]

[mharbaugh]

[egcomedy1]

@ ScoobyEpps - Watch Herbie Hancock & Chick Corea Duo - Leap In. Herbie won that one... from the beginning.

>/.

p.s. I love Chick as well.

[ngharrison]

These guys were serious!!!!!

[crouchhill]

The two Gods of the piano/keyboards.

[Lamename90210]

....wow!!!

[Lev447]

Crazy kind of stuff

[nickeyparadise]

The phrase that Chick plays at 4:51-4:54 is the most amazing passage that I have ever heard.

[ScoobyEpps]

I'm a big Hancock fan but Chick won this one!!!

[gscampello]

there are no winners. they're both great !!!

[drawfire25]

WOW. Look at how many views this vid has, people don't know good music these days. This just blew my mind, awestruck. Pure genius.

[Lev447]

Sure,is it lack of musical ears?

[MBAraujo35]

AMAZING!!!!!!

[Putytand]

So... Who wins? lol..

[SolMaster]

It's not a competition, it's a duet.

[goodlukeing]

duet TO THE DEATH

[kingvidbina]

And people wonder why Chick and Herbie are my main role models... they're amazing... that's why

[bananafingerrrs]

So

This just blew my mind...

I now can't freakin' wait to see Chick in London in November....

AHHHHHH

[kingvidbina]

Can't wait to see him in the Netherlands the 13 of November. Whew. Already got my tickets. With the free seating I'll have to make sure to be at the venue approximately 3 hours before the show. Just to guarantee a good spot.

[rmac1042]

It's playing like this that makes some us pianists occasionally wonder why we still try to perform. Thank heaven each musician has his own things to say--I just wish I had some of those chops to accent tthe harmonic ideas I have--at least just a little... lol.

[dilagus]

best phrase from chick at 03:28

[bluebanshee3]

the seat belts, no doubt.

[EoN604]

i LOVE Chick's facial expressions - he's ike a pained genius haha, he has some fucken AWESOME chops imo - brilliant style

[Crazyflew]

Buckle your mother fuckin seat belts.

[EoN604]

hahaha - that about sums it up... pure genius playing right here - these two are fantastic

[filippinijazz]

mi basta solo Herbie... da 0:34 a 0:41

[JuzzChiln]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuk

[figaromagniffico]

simply nuts!

[ciccios73]

geniale, grandi, spettacolari.... grazie

[theorygeek00]

Has anybody noticed the hawk that's Chick's pinkie? I swear I'm going to cry, that's beautiful technique!

[Juryperu]

whatta !!! they 're not Human. WOW !!!!!!!!!!!

[SvenHild]

fuckin amazing technique. fast² and so melodicaly improvised

[Moggggpiano]

I was just listening to them play "La Fiesta" from 1978 (I think). It's not fair to be this good. it's just not fair!!

[zamar248]

AMAZING!!

[ReturnOfTheStienway]

sick!!!!

[shanrico]

no matter how many times I hear them do this - it still blows me away ... they recorded this in 1980 on vinyl - Liza -- "sick" just sick... anyone catch the 'quote by Chick of Raymon Scott'?! ill....

[gabel13]

i thought herbie played drums

[freeqwerqwer]

is there any musical value to their playing or is it just technical variations on common chords?

[00oiio00]

Value is in the ear of the listener, I guess.

For me this is Art, nothing else to be said.

[raikonomicron]

GODS!

[teemingup]

How about ending every day by watching this...

[SHRINKINGBASSIST]

This is the best i've heard herbie. Sensational.

[HiFiApartment]

legends!

[lorenzof84]

It's good to see two real Masters dressed in a simple t-shirt and having fun playing!

[weepwoop]

My GOSH that's good. Inspiring in a chaotic kind of way...

[tricotraco76]

I due maestri. Punto.

[videolover61]

If you don't like this music...EVERYBODY knows YOU cant FUCK!! You just so sad...

[Hall1024]

Simply AMazing !

[Keithdrengen]

I bet they had fun and I had fun too! Lol, but for me its too caught up in itself. Virtoursity shouldnt come before music itself. In this respect Keith got me back on track.

[InvalidationCounter]

Ah, balls to you ! You're jealous !

[Latvija2010]

AHHH my head just exploded!

[dumchin]

I envy both of them to have such great talents and soul mates to share inspirations.

[AllknowingGuitarGuru]

My friends tell me, "Bruce, you haven't given jazz a chance" and I say 'So, I haven't given suicide a chance.'

You know what king of music they play in heaven? Country

You know what they play in H-E-double hockey stick? Yep, JAZZ.

!!!!JUST KIDDING!!!!!

Apparently, I'm going with the HELL option.

These guys are as close as you can get to the hands of God playing music here on Earth.

Thanks for the post! INCREDIBLE!

[dillmon1]

fuck...

[Pleepleus]

These shouldn't be allowed to do this...they're dangerous! My head just almost exploded.

[MSlapik]

THAT WAS F'ING CRAZY.

[matiasluna]

they have a uniqe language my god what a masters!

[nikolasantek]

so fucking genious !!!

[Cacophony89]

Fooly & cooly...

[juicyjpink]

INN-SAAANE; thank you, Jesus!

[mongly00]

jajaja balla 2 dios miooooo

[Knallpiano]

Fantastic, Fantastic, Fantastic !!!!!!!!!!!!

[crouchhill]

I two of my favorite pianist of all time.

[seamusohanrahan]

Dios mio man! I reckon these piano jewels slap you in the face with what total geniuses the guys are even more than their solo or ensemble work. Musical equivalent of bringing two chunks of enriched uranium dangerously close to each other... only in this case the only danger is not being able to regain your speech for a few minutes...

[potatoheadblues]

this is so much better than seeing them pose as pop stars with their ridiculous keytar synthesizers etc

[rjtemple]

That was sickest dual piano solo I ever heard in my entire life!!!!!!!!!!!

[geekusa16]

That was awesome!!! Thanks so much for posting this, I play piano so that was incredibly awesome to see!

[Doggy82]

wow! I'm crying!

[NeilCasual]

WOoooh !

Each time i listen to Herbie/Chick duo , my whole body is shivering !

its too good !

Thanks to those 2 geniuses to have been brought here on Earth ! ;D

[Hazespianist]

waansinn...love it! I play piano professionally myzelf but this one of the finest things i ever heard...

[combonacar]

this love.

[julienshack]

man, i crapped in my pants watching this awesome stuff

[musictranscription]

I can write for you any sheet music

[AnDyPCLAM]

I will give you twenty pence to transcribe this entire duet.

[JustinLawn]

Good grief! I had to remind myself to breathe in the middle there. Awesome. The album they put our from this concert series is one of my favourites.

[RayAtBristolUni]

Here are two of the most progressive minds in jazz, I think - even more than someone like Keith Jarrett (also a superb classical player). I get tired of people knocking Corea's "electric band" stuff of the 70s too; It's inventive stuff. And Hancock's contributions to the legendary Miles Davis recordings upstage Miles himself! Does anyone know if a video exists of the famous 1982 Munich two-piano improvisations by Corea & Gulda? If so I'd love to see it, I've listened to the CD many times.

[marvinkmooneyoz]

Electric band wasnt till 80's. Return to Forecer was Chick's main 70's electric band. For the most part, the 80's sucked, and, unfortunatetly, even Chick couldnt fully escape.

[Jalilthemusicplayer]

wow..Im gonna go practice now...This is awsome!

[lorenzini]

This is amazing!

Chick and Herbie at the top of the piano heap and just smiling from above.

[breezin48]

Incredible precision. What a treat. Thanks for posting this.

[vivelavidarocka]

Japaneses like Jazz a lot....Why is that? I know is good music and everything, but I just don't see the roots of the whole thing.

[noonward]

because its good music

[mrpossibilities]

Oh shit...... ohh fuck....

[billmcb]

...oh my!...

sincerely,

bill mcb.

[l02p07m59]

por supuesto que es maravilloso lo que tocan y lo que ambos expresan, solo disfruten y limiten sus absurdos comentarios!!!!

[mistermidi]

haha youtube phenomana had been the entry gate for any kind of human stupidity....speculate here about who is "better" is like a suicide that hold a grenade in a hand and a c4 explosive at other, asking what of both will kill him "better"

[tisaacso3625]

This is so amazing in so many different ways.

[run15cc]

Check out chick's shorts in the someday my prince will come duet!! So SICK!!!

[jbaldy61]

Pretty good tunes for a couple amateurs :o)

[lorenzini]

These guys are freaking unbelievable. As far as "who is better" is ridiculous. Neither is better. Both technically flawless and expressing themselves uniquely

[ragingurchin]

Why is that girl at 5:19 just reading a book. I would be so damn excited and jumping out of my seat like a madman.

[ragingurchin]

Both are overly competent as far as technique goes, since they both have plenty of background in classical repetoire. Chick's semi-staccato style is simply influenced by his background as a drummer, so you'll never see him missing a beat. What's most important, however, is not that one is better, but they are both at such a fantastic level that they can draw energy and ideas off of each other to make frickin' beautiful music.

[bigfatgreek]

haha its funny the whole 'chick vs herbie' thing, they're both fucking good so stop the arguments you sad, sad fuckers.

[Dihelson]

My Gods! This is true music. I feel pity for those people who do not understand nor feel Jazz. I feel sorry for those Classical pianists who only knows to repeat dead people´s music and have no creativity. THIS IS AWESOME. THIS IS TRUE AND REAL MUSIC !

[dingadang]

My improv pleasure meter just spiked and induced a stroke!

[robwoodie3]

Incredible

[delliejonut]

japanese people are so weird... lol

great concert though

[Mrmoon1976]

fantastik

[ragingurchin]

Interesting to see Herbie play with a lidless and Chick not.

[natking26]

Herbie's runs are not as clean as Chick's.

[RobeeMan]

So What?! ;) :)

[jbowers56]

Herbie's technique is much more effortless than Chick's. Better, overall. His runs are just as "clean" in the sense that he plays them how he wants them to sound. As does Chick, I suppose, but he always plays his runs in a nearly semi-staccato manner. Sounds more showy whereas Herbie just plays to express his ideas musically.

[selmer1938]

Let me say, that no one is better than the other, but come on, Chick is the man.

[jbowers56]

Haha, I'll always be a Herbie fan well over Chick. But yes, I'm not saying either are necessarily better, it's just not fair to say his runs aren't as clean. They are just more legato, that's all.

[ChimRichaldz]

No kidding juxtabooby ... Bill, Gil, Keith, Chick, Herbie ... who am I missing?

[tommya]

Chim - From the era you spoke of, there's one more guy...Joe Zawinul.

[HammondB200]

art tatum stupid

[ChimRichaldz]

art tatum was obviously never in any of miles bands ... stupid

[Juxtabooby]

2 true masters of music playing together = pure enjoyment. Miles really knew how to pick 'em..

[tommya]

I'll quit playing piano now. Check please.

[onemijplease]

shouldn't that get you more excited about playing?

[Keithdrengen]

I have had the same feeling when I saw virtoursity. Keith made me feel like playing again. (Banal I know!)

[tommya]

Well, now come to think it...I do feel like playing -- I guess that's the best compliment you can give guys like Chick, Herbie, Keith, etc. It's time to go out and hit those 88's.
