John Coltrane - Naima - 1965

[AboveMiddleC1977]

Ascension to a higher power, he truly believed in the literal word

[boderodrigonunes]

POrra mermao propaganda escrota de plin plin ! vai pro caralho !

[cabe277]

HAHAHAHA he messed up in the beginning. Sorry Trane, you're still the man.

[notaproblemdude]

brilliant

[jok3r213obed]

John Coltrane, one of the greatest sax player ever known.

[Jqau]

JC Lives on...and he will forever. RIP His music speaks for it's self.

[dboonedarkness]

Man.. I've always heard people talk about Alice and John Coltrane, but wasn't until recently that I started listening to them. In fact, The Mars Volta is what turned me in a Coltrane fan

[arielrcalabria]

Bless John Coltrane.

[chungiemunchin]

What mastery!

[keesvangulik127]

@cod4masterrpgn History will prove you wrong.

[MrAndreina1990]

bello come jazz o bluse?

[Jalas777]

I love John Coltrane. He is truly one of the greatest musicians of all time.

[nachoboysasj]

@cod4masterrpgn don't say something that stupid. Its self-incriminating

[swing2bop1]

whats with the jazz snob

[africanfromafrica]

had to sign in to my youtube account just so that i could thumbs up this video

[lederping]

It was a night like all nights, cold and dark.

I sat in my office chair, just lookin' over the old- no? No. Alright.

[kejourbman]

it is incredible



[kejourbman]

that 4:31 area in John's solo fills me with this emotion that the English language doesn't have a word for

[garlicblue6]

about the comment of candorist: yes...absolutely agree with him...Jazz is a wonderful dream...thanks America of those creative years!

[Freezpopp]

lol

[vorhangleiste]

My favourite thing.

[jndljoui]

@vorhangleiste No, this one is "Naima"

[loremdolorfu]

So much longing. And he holds it up till you weep.

[craskal889]

@placeinheaven ya but mostly most of this kind of music.you don't get this kind of music in todays mainstream culture. the music from today is all directed at one age level, depending on the music or artist, and none of it is timeless, unlike coltrane. He was a huge contributer to the jazz community, and I'm just glad that other people feel the same way i do, and hope that Coltrane and other artists can live on forever.

[HPHSGermany2010]

I am constantly inspired by Coltrane's music!

[Skuld1000]

:) my middle name is Naimah

[kissmylipsification]

Supberb!!! Just sit back and chillllllllllllllllllll !!!!

[keesvangulik127]

Goosebumps, caused by greatness.

[steephsax]

Just incredible... Coltrane was something else. Rest In Peace Coltrane! Your music inspire us saxophonist all around the world

[infantkizzle]

one time for John Coltrane

[varghaal]

Reminds me of Taxi Driver.

[placeinheaven]

Music is ageless and timeless

[MrGuitarman187]

Man that near end part like 3/4ths the way through is so awsome its like he about to come out of his sax man so good its note whirlwind

[luc0sugar1]

senza parole...

[strangersname]

Coltrane wasn't just a musician--he was a force of love and beauty and transformation on this Earth.

But what a musician!!

[peterkau1]

greatest improviser ever? probably.

[pretorious700]

@peterkau1 impossible to quantify such a thing

[peterkau1]

@pretorious700 just one opinion. miles and keith figure pretty high too :)

[TheDesi65]

wow , his live performance is as great as the recorded version . now that is a real musician . bless are those who keep their craft as an art form.

[nystmind]

the master at his craft... love it !!!!

[ALTERED13TH]

I like Coltrane quite a bit but much prefer Wayne Shorter because I think he is a better composer than Coltrane was, gets a nicer tone from the tenor and I prefer his solos for the most part over most of Coltrane's solos.

Happy Birthday coltrane (:

[windinkle1]

Happy Birthday John Coltrane. On this rainy Friday, the lilting sounds and vibrations of Naima channel Trane; music that is clearly a gift from God.

[amd77j]

@windinkle1 Amen.

[lachen1006]

Wonderful!!!

[almirasecret]

jazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Rechtskraft8501]

It is beautiful ballad, but John Coltrane played this tune also, as he appealed for peace. He sings by tenor saxophene for true love, indeed " A Love Supreme" !

[mrkeysfla]

Please. Kenny G's name should never be mentioned here. Coltrane was genious. Kenny is MUZAK!

[Thepopdelusion]

@mrkeysfla

You just mentioned it....

[rillloudmother]

@Thepopdelusion for real though...

[SpeezyTV]

This can make one cry

[SpleenMeurtrier]

Con esta hueá se pelan al toque

[doko73]

I have a great appreciation for what Trane does because I play the sax. He practiced eight hours a day and it showed. Trane, Roland Kirk and Sonny Rollins are in my top five sax players. Earl Bostic and Charlie Parker finish my list. There are great sax players and then you have the OUTSTANDING ones:-)

[ALTERED13TH]

@doko73 What about Dexter Gordon? He was one of the greatest tenor players.

[doko73]

@ALTERED13TH DEXTER WAS A PIONEER, he told a story when he played. All of the above learned and admired Dexter, so that speaks for its self.Everyone has different taste and to each his own, there's beauty in all great players. Coleman Hawkins and Lester Young were excellent, it's just the mood your in at that time.

[ALTERED13TH]

@doko73 Actually, it has nothing to do with the "mood you're in at that time," whatever that means, at least as far as whether or not I like a particular musician or music. As someone who is competent on the piano and has studied music extensively, it has to do with the compositional complexity, harmonic complexity, the idiom and what a composer is able to contribute to that idiom and rhythmic complexity, among other aesthetic concerns, that determines what I listen to and like.

[doko73]

@ALTERED13TH You have extraordinary taste in music. To each his own and i don't have a phd. in music, i just like what i like.

[ALTERED13TH]

@ALTERED13TH Dexter is also one of my favorites. His music reflects his infectious personality and the tone he gets from the tenor is incredible not to mention his sense of harmony and his solo's. I tend to like musicians that compose a great deal because it is in composition that a great musician really shines.

[superkulmedkniv25]

John Coltrane was good at what he did.

[doko73]

Please, don't try to put Kenny G. on Coltranes level. Kenny is good but the Trane is The GOD of Saxaphonist..Don't get things twisted, no ones better than Trane.

[HoodPositive]

Kenny G is like Kanye West in the world of jazz..no original..beats on loop..he plays over them..that's not jazz. These men are playing every note..no loops on a computer. Duke would slap Kenny for his blasphemy!

[svantebeaverman]

You should check out Kenny G, he's a really good sax player. Not that Coltrane isn't good, but kenny is just crazy

[shakabrahtastic]

@svantebeaverman OMG I ~LOVE~ kenny g!!!!!!!!!

[dachipmunk05]

@svantebeaverman Wow, you should watch the video Pat Metheny on Kenny G.

[GCSneakers]

I admire Coltrane so greatly

[Lydian7lc]

how come all his high notes seem broken up?

[addeex1]

@Lydian7lc I'm not a sax player but I think it has something with he plays higher than a sax actually "can" with different fingerings, or I dunno, maybe because it sounds cool :D

[doko73]

@addeex1 There called over tones and you use alternate fingerings for them. Anything above the F is difficult to play, and he goes far beyond an F. COLTRANE DID THINGS WITH THE TENOR SAX that only a handful of people could. He was a Pioneer and to me the Greatest.

[addeex1]

@doko73 I see, thank you for the info! :) He's the greatest to me too.

[DailyBrusher]

This is a song that has changed my life, taught me how to feel more deeply, and how to meditate on a sentiment, and thus experience life more fully.

[NetxEnigma]

This Man was a God on Earth...I will worship Him Forever

I was 18 when I first heard it.

[BlueRoseRocketBand2]

If gold was easy to find it would be worthless. As for todays popular music (?). When have the masses ever shown the way. Don't get drawn into this FACELIFT world of ours that worth is measured by how many friends you have or hits on a page.

Paths less traveled always please me more.

What is IS and the rest is an illusion.

So sit back, listen and live it real.

[Bagpipe13]

this is one of clint eastwoods favorite performers,good judge.

[amd77j]

Celestial.

[AirTerranean]

Naima, translates to "Tune" in Hebrew.

No better title around for this, the "Tune",

ha Naima

thank you guru john coltrane. jai sri ram!

[23071957jazzman]

To Bejerama. A doctor might help you, but he'd have to be in ENT and specialise in ears because yours aren't working if you can't hear that Coltrane,s music transcends the genre and every other genre for that matter!

[23071957jazzman]

R.I.P. John. Too beautiful for this world.

[gjsjazz]

Everyone stop complaining about today's music, just relax and enjoy this.

[Zappafan1980]

@gjsjazz

People love to get Thumbs up for hating on todays music

But there is still amazing Jazz these days for example Hiromi Uehara an amazing Japanese piano player

or Tal Wilkenfeld a very talented Bass player

[Cannibalope]

Sweetheart, THIS is jazz. Let it fill you up like dark chocolate...

[addeex1]

Oh I've been to Juan le Pins, wish i was there 44 years earlier

[BtArocks3133]

He cannot play a bad note. It's physically impossible

[Mik4hell]

so smoooooth

[Miloshevits]

This is surprisingly straight ahead compared to most of what John Coltrane was doing in 1965-7

[dhampex]

I see how Michael brecker was influenced!

[EddieHaskelll]

@dhampex You see how everyone who ever heard him was influenced.

[dhampex]

@EddieHaskelll Yep!!!!!!!! He set a standard. Mike brecker used lots of runs and scales that coltrane do. I definently heard him praise John. Even ata rovati has that style down! John is a true legendary master! His wires music is cool too! (Alice Coltrane)

[dreadtodred]

my uncle told me he was so sad when coltrane died

[DOMINIQUEB22]

classic jazz.  i love it. artists today forget where their roots came from. so sad.

[solardynasty]

thank you guru...

[babah77088]

LOVELY

[live4rock10]

Back in the days when artist actually played their instrument. Pure euphoria.

[artheart3001]

@live4rock10 People still do, just not in the mainstream media.

[RealRockandRoll]

This song reminds me of a woman broken down...... a woman who is used over and over again, shes lost her luster, her breasts sag, her hair tangled, and shoes worn out...........

[custardapple777]

@RealRockandRoll hehe ! I believe he wrote it for his first wife !

[RealRockandRoll]

@custardapple777 Ha! wow you're right! Never would've guessed that one!

[RealRockandRoll]

@custardapple777 ....but of course you never know what's in the mind of an artist in action ;)

[megajames3000]

@RealRockandRoll old prostitute? whoa.

[kekei39]

I do agree. Just the dedicated few. There is a feeling that connects with the senses when listening to John Coltrane.

[ronandelisle]

Music of the highest caliber

[animalfight]

oh my god, where can i see more of this performance?? or get a copy of it??

[Innerspace100]

@animalfight Both Antibes '65 performances were issued by the French Esoldun- Ina label approx 20- 25 years ago on vinyl. First night: Love Supreme in its entirety. Second night: Blue Waltz, Impressions, this and Favourite Things. Highly recommended!

[sweetgyy]

r.i.p. john coltrane . you kick ass

[Supermabelina]

Ayyyyyyyyyy, Dioooosssssss!!!!!!!

[vanessa4u4evr]

He processed all his frustrations and his passions through that horn. You can feel it all at once. Behind that horn, he was a fearless man. Whew!!

[Croozer]

11 tone deaf people watched this video.

[Innerspace100]

I have this on vinyl. It is a release made by a French label, who specialized on jazz recordings made by French radio in the 60s and early 70s. This my favourite version of Naima, recorded, as it was, towards the very end of the classic quartets period. Prizeless, it is. Thanks a WHOLE LOT for putting this superb recording up on youtube!

[DrJohnAbraham]

Thanks you so much for posting. A video of an American musical legend.

[Thodmod]

I really love John Coltranes sound

[carbilicon]

in love this song so much because it captures emotions of city life, loneliness and heartfelt nostalgia. i could hear it 100 years from now and it would affect me the same, i know it.

[discolando]

@carbilicon Your interpretation is very interesting. I believe he wrote it as a love song.

[dewaune12]

Unreal, The sounds of pure genius, you can't talk music without speaking on the likes of Coltrane, Miles, and the Great Thelonious!!! IF you haven't got the book on the life Mr. Monk you need to get that in your life.

[BWyrick]

@dewaune12 Don't forget about Satchmo!

[solstat]

[JazzYugioh1022]

@bejerama

Does playing altissimo notes make a player good o you? I can play through the altisimio, am i better than trane? Listen to the music. enjoy it. understand the rawness of the sheets of sound coltrane is creating fro you. he can play them. and cracking them or overblwing them is done on purpose.

[bejerama]

Did no one tell these dudes how to play altissimo notes or were their reeds just shit?

[scomdnz9]

@bejerama maybe they did and he said fuck that this is how ima do it

[bejerama]

@scomdnz9 I like that. But honestly. It doesn't sound good.

[ZethStrifeTV]

My Mothers Name is Naima and this song describes her personality very Well

[micicicis]

@alanaswiss1 its not black but white and sometimes like green screen "snow"..and there is no settings option when i do right click...ty so much anyways :)

[babicofera]

Sopro maravilhoso! Um talento que não tem reposição! Esse grau de sentimento impresso em sua música, é raro! Difícil nascer outro igual!! Admiro sua obra e sei que são poucos talentos desse naipe.

[unifb2007]

As someone whose claim to fame is that I saw Coltrane (my musical hero) twice in person, this is "True Musical Genius!" - "Keep enjoying the sounds of Jazz" - coachroche

Thank you for posting this amazing video.

Stupenda la reinterpretazione di Naima al pianoforte di Maurizio Marrani nel suo album "Solo in Oslo"...

@micicicis do u just see a black screen with audio? if so then just right click the video then click 'setting' option if its not grayed out, and then un-check the "Enable Hardware Acceleration". hope that helps.

[keesvangulik127]

Only 40 when he died. What a terrible loss. The last place where he stood must still look like a cold and lonely emptiness.

[carbilicon]

@keesvangulik127 "no junk, no soul", right?

[MrMrwhatok]

I would like to see a bar graph music video of this

[ytiger100]

@connorveale thanks

[AlenivanSC2]

@connorveale It is a Tenor Saxaphone, I know because I personally play this and this man made me fall in love with the thing :)

[Pentaerythrittetrani]

Yeah great sound can anybody tell me from where i get the sheet music(free)??



[xxplicitt004]

Why does this only have 406k views :[

[shop4sue]

[kekei39]

This is so so so seriously genius. Where is the John Coltrane movie???

[aarfeld]

@kekei39: The audience for Jazz may be dedicated but unfortunately it's small. Those aren't the kinds of numbers that the owners of film studios like to see when considering the financing of a movie. Clint Eastwood made a bio-pic about Bird 13 years ago or so as a labor of love. I believe that it was critically well received but failed to earn much at the box office.

[oliveralmaraz]

@kekei39: but there's not an Einstein movie to. jaja

[trigjeeeh]

@oliveralmaraz actually there is an Einstein movie and it's called: I.Q. from 1994

[trigjeeeh]

although it's not really a typical biopic, it features Einstein

[aarfeld]

@kekei39: Sadly the Coltrane movie is in the same place as America's interest in Jazz: in too small numbers for a film studio to invest in such a project. I'm afraid that we who love Jazz are a rather small cult--but I feel honored to be in the company of folks with such refined taste in music.

[jdector53]

@aarfeld

it's mostly that he's a black intellectual of virtually unimpeachible character

[diggsduke]

@kekei39 Read one of the numerous books about his life. I don't believe this music is meant to entertain the masses for a couple of hours.

Coltrane got me hooked :)
