it occurs to me that jazz, or bop at least, always begins with a mood, a motif, and the song usually becomes something completely different, using the melody as only a gathering / returning point. i think the real trick in understanding jazz or players like Coltrane, Dolphy and other new thing players, is digging the feeling in the players , and thus understanding their motivation. Motivation has the word motive in it.
At around 4:50 you begin to see the point where John Coltrane finds himself unable to express himself through the saxophone. The medium of saxophone can no longer express his ideas due to its limited nature. That is a sign of a truly great player.
every time I hear the music of John I feel as if a whirlwind of beautiful images passed through my head, beautiful images as his music. John is alive in my heart, John was one of the greatest geniuses of jazz at all times.
If there was a time machine that could go back to this period of time, I'd definitely go back and live during that time...Seems so cool back then. Good music, no sagging bitches with gauges, no shitty rap...
Why are so many dissing hip hop after watching this music? You don't know good hip hop just like you probably wouldn't have known good jazz back then. I just think it's funny when it's all apart of the same lineage of black music essentially.
People do what they do and nothing can change that. If you like music derived from what you call cretins then that's what they are partial to. Personally I think that Trane is a fully fledged genius but that's only my opinion and this doesn't make it so.
@madara1221 I know trane can be hard to swallow at first...but don't give up on him. let your ears get used to his out there stuff, even if it takes many listens...you'll be glad you did, i promise.
As a fellow saxophonist I have to say that i like the beginning and the ending of this song but the part with his conscious 'wrong-playing' bugged me. I know that he wanted to be creative but to me it sounds like just playing random tones and squeakers.
I was also annoyed by the pianist who just played what came into his mind, not minding the other members of the group.
I know that this was all done on purpose but it's my own free opinion of this song.
@madara1221 ....That is the very point of why Coltrane is so highly regarded. Where YOU would never think to perform what you consider "random tones and squeakers" he on the other hand would and did. He advanced the jazz art form critics be damned. Critics usually come around anyway as they are unlikely to want to be labeled "squares" or behind the curve by the forward thinkers. Coltrane has influenced a generation of musicians or should I say artists.
@madara1221 Come on..calling Mcoy Tyner "the pianist" in such a great solo ..hope you are not too serious about it and that it was a first-thaught comment. I suggest that you listen another time, sincerely.
@madara1221. Wow, couldn't disagree more, Tyner on piano was clued in tightly with the other percussion instruments throughout, if you listen, and Coltrane's solo around 4:20+ takes the emotion of this song to another plane. That's where it soars, this song of love and devotion.
@madara1221 It's just funny most of us were just like you. First times listening to this guy I couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. Wrong notes every where, but after a million and a half more listens, I'm beginning to understand why someone would WANT to play those notes. As for Tyner, you'll just have to hope you can start learning about all that has come before (Tatum, Monk, Jamal) to understand where he wanted to go.
This man knew his horn, inside and out. Earl Bostic influenced Trane n he added to it. A subtone B flat to an A, overtone without adjusting his ombiture..WOW.
La primera vez que escuche esta cancion tenia 21 años, estudiaba en la universidad y me dije: si alguna vez en este mundo tengo una hija le pondre de nombre Naima, pasaron los años, ya tengo 34, tengo una hermosa hija de 9 años y se llama Naima.
@MrJadePinwheel You're right that it's odd. This song being classified as a ballad is incredibly odd as well. This song needs its own category. How do you like the E Flat pedal in the bass?
@josepharchbold i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought so!! One of the great downfalls of laptop speakers on music is not being able to hear bass, but since you mentioned it, I got my headphones and checked it out, and notice the pedal tone now. I love that these guys put in years of work and study to get to the point of being able to channel the music from somewhere else & make their statements that way, i can't imagine the feeling of what it was like being in this group
p.d.: I wonder, how some ppl dare to say kanye west make masterpieces? what? a 5 notes progression a masterpiece? really? THIS UP HERE IS A MASTERPIECE!! Don't do drugs kids and stay away from today television it's making you more stupid and useless every day.
...as to 'how far we've fallen'...I wonder. Suspect, based on the # of banal and - in some cases - unlistenable musical forms (I'm referring, of course, to Opera and Country, but there could be others... :-)), my personal belief is that the creative spirit known as jazz is more an anomaly - albeit a welcome and refreshing one - than anything. 'tis also an acquired taste - one which I'm personally glad to have had nurtured, but...for every jazz lover, there are many more who aren't...sadly...
@phlyeguy dont get me wrong, i too love jazz, but i know ppl who would label ours as "unlistenable". we're not members of some elite club, let's not get carried away here. and God bless u

@HipHopkins09 I read the book "Coltrane on Coltrane" which is a collection of interviews he did in which he states: "I just want to play all I can. Sometimes an entertainer just has a certain span of productivity. I hope that never happens to me, but you never know, so I want to keep playing as long as I possibly can."
@MrRGanja Hey fuckhead, yea, we all dig Coltrane, but Jesus Christ on a crutch, stop sounding like an affected gay queen, you dope! Even if you're a girl it sounds creepy. Actually, do me a favor and get the flying fuck off this page! Cheers, :-D!
The stark contrast between these disciplined yet intensively creative legends and the cretins today wandering the streets with ball caps on backwards and grilles full of bling is incomprehensible. How far we have fallen... :O|
@hinodecho69 I think that's a bit harsh. You have individuals making very good music today that may be recognized by later generations as great. And yes, we have 'cretins' who wear caps backwards and produce crap music but i'm sure such individuals existed back then as well. We have to be able to keep things in perspective, yet I agree with your overall sentiment that the caliber of original music being produced in that era is far greater than what we hear now.
@hinodecho69 Calm down man. Can't you just appreciate this without putting down other art form? Hip-hop has its geniuses and its "cretins," as you say, like any other genre.
@hinodecho69 It is a de-evolution of music, it is coming full circle I believe. Computers have made it possible for almost anyone to 'write' a 'song'. We have 'musicians' who can't even play live because everything in the studio was altered to be in time and all the mess ups were over dubbed. Back in these days of Coltrane or Davis there was a weeding out of 'shitty' musicians who couldn't perform flawlessly. Simply put they couldn't find work.
@hinodecho69 Wtf. Comparing musical legends to random people on the streets. You know there are musical legends today. And there were dirtbags walking the streets in the 60's, I'm sure.
@hinodecho69 what you are saying makes no sense. There is no relationship between the two groups of people you are talking about at all. There is a contrast between those people but we haven't fallen. There were people like that then too you know. Great musicians then, and great musicians now.
WTF??? You are way off base. We look back at this period of American history with nostalgia because it was the sixties. But many hip hop artists take inspiration from this music and put it into their new form of expression. You just aren't looking for the quality acts out there in the rap world
This is beyond music... its its high science ...alchemy... magic. As is all music that flows directly from the soul and the spirirt... THIS SHIT IS HARD JOE !! I 've listened to thiis song about 87 times.....today !!!!
I'm loving what each musician is doing but I'm struggling to accept the song as a whole on the more hectic parts. Maybe it's just a matter of getting the ear used to it. I'm not sure,
That is the beauty of jazz. You are supposed to hear all of the distinct parts. Each musician is in a sort of freestyle. They are feeding off of each other but at the same time they are playing their own separate songs. In rock and roll it is called a jam session. This song is genius.
You all need to shut the fuck up because your diluting a masterpiece of American culture...your arguing over who is the most moronic and ignorant yet you fail to realize that you sound like pretentious douche bags... if you have anything to say keep it positive and about the music
0:50-0:59 Thats what its all about, the subtleties. What made them so great is that everything they played had these subtle nuances that made every line seem epic in a sort of way...which they were I might add 'imho'
0:50-0:59 Thats what its all about, the subtleties. What made them so great is that everything they played had these subtle nuances that made every line seem epic in a sort of way...which they were I might add 'imho'
Dude's! Sure, you may dislike Kenny G's music (I don't care for it myself) but you can't deny that the cat can play. And comparing him to Trane is stupid. I don't think you should really compare musicians to each other anyway, haha. It's music, not a battle to the death, lololol.
Lol, I'm playing this in big band except under an afro-cuban sort of triplet beat. It's insane. Paul McKee is our director. He writes good stuff, lol.
Okay, I came here to listen to jazz.. Every morning, I pack a ball , listen to jazz, hot tea ready and a cig. Now I don’t care if bieber sold 10 million records or not. Just don’t mention his name, For jazz is the soul of music to me. The best sex I have ever had was with jazz playing in the back ground, best night out, drunk in a jazz club. If you can’t find it interesting then please just don’t bother with it…
@willardlol Hey fago, did you really say "sexiest sounding instrument"? Get the fuck out of Union City & move to SF before they kill you!!! Bwhhahahahaaa, douche bag.
Everyone needs to realax and realize that it doesnt matter how you feel about jazz or Coltrane you are never going to convince the other side you're right. But for me I feel John Coltrane will go down in history for being able to show people to see something beyond just musical notes in a pattern.
Justin Bieber is just another piece of meat for record companies. It´s all about money. They pay millions of dollars to put his music and his face in everywhere. That way, even a monkey can be a success.hahaha Music is on the last line for this buddy.
@Odessa188 the people buy his records thats how they make money and they buy them because the kid has talent! record companies and such do not just pick anybody.
@valkour22 not necessarilly. His manager, his record company, they pay to all the media makes people think that. The only thing this kid has to do is posing. He doesn´t write his songs, doesn´t play any instruments, nothing. It´s all about money and posing. For some people, that´s talent.
I wonder... is there a way to block the comments section, so I don't accidently start reading it when watching a video? Why is it no matter what kind of video it is, a fight breaks out in the comments? Or at bests, they should make it so people under 18 can't comment.
@aridleyart I agree with you completely, but what about the small group of teenagers (like me) who can really appreciate the subtelties of coltrane and tyner. These guys are legends and are playing at a level of musicality that is completely unachievable of today's bullshit artists.
Your wrg i took a jazz class like 2 yrs ago and only like 1/4 of people in class knew who this guy was and Every single one knew who JUSTIN WAS!!!! THIS GUY COULDNT SHINE jUSTIN'S SHOE'S!!!! Coltran's albums sold an average 20-30k from when he made them to now! Justins have ALRDY SOLD AN AVERAGE 750K AND THATS IN JUST LAST 2 YRS! LOLOLOLOL. Look up recording sales of both and u will see Justin is this guy's DADDY!!!!
@valkour22 Oh forgive me. I forgot about all of the contributions Justin made for music, and his sheer virtuosity with his instrument. Surely in the future people will remember the great milestone that was Justin Bieber and how he changed music forever. I mean, nobody did pop music before Justin did. He will surely go on as a legend, greater than Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, and Duke Ellington. Or maybe not. You tell me, oh great one with such superior music taste.

I'm loving what each musician is doing but I'm struggling to accept the song as a whole on the more hectic parts. Maybe it's just a matter of getting the ear used to it. I'm not sure,

That is the beauty of jazz. You are supposed to hear all of the distinct parts. Each musician is in a sort of freestyle. They are feeding off of each other but at the same time they are playing their own separate songs. In rock and roll it is called a jam session. This song is genius.

I like this song.
Since this song is very sophisticated.I feel the musical scene in U.S get late-back with pop music.

McCoy Tyner is still performing. Tyner is one of the few live connections to the 1950's-60's golden age of jazz.

0:50-0:59 Thats what its all about, the subtleties. What made them so great is that everything they played had these subtle nuances that made every line seem epic in a sort of way...which they were I might add 'imho'

Dude's! Sure, you may dislike Kenny G's music (I don't care for it myself) but you can't deny that the cat can play. And comparing him to Trane is stupid. I don't think you should really compare musicians to each other anyway, haha. It's music, not a battle to the death, lololol.

Okay, I came here to listen to jazz.. Every morning, I pack a ball , listen to jazz, hot tea ready and a cig. Now I don’t care if bieber sold 10 million records or not. Just don’t mention his name, For jazz is the soul of music to me. The best sex I have ever had was with jazz playing in the back ground, best night out, drunk in a jazz club. If you can’t find it interesting then please just don’t bother with it…

Everyone needs to realax and realize that it doesnt matter how you feel about jazz or Coltrane you are never going to convince the other side you're right. But for me I feel John Coltrane will go down in history for being able to show people to see something beyond just musical notes in a pattern.

Justin Bieber is just another piece of meat for record companies. It´s all about money. They pay millions of dollars to put his music and his face in everywhere. That way, even a monkey can be a success.hahaha Music is on the last line for this buddy.
John Coltrane is all about music. Pure music.

@valkour22 not necessarilly. His manager, his record company, they pay to all the media makes people think that. The only thing this kid has to do is posing. He doesn´t write his songs, doesn´t play any instruments, nothing. It´s all about money and posing. For some people, that´s talent.

I wonder... is there a way to block the comments section, so I don't accidently start reading it when watching a video? Why is it no matter what kind of video it is, a fight breaks out in the comments? Or at bests, they should make it so people under 18 can't comment.

@aridleyart No, that would definitely NOT be a good idea. What about the VERY small group of teenagers
who love to listen to this and good old classic rock songs (like me, for example), and who like to discuss about
this REAL music sometimes? It wouldn´t be fair if we could not make comments.
blackpearl961963 11 months ago
@aridleyart I agree with you completely, but what about the small group of teenagers (like me) who can really appreciate the subtelties of coltrane and tyner. These guys are legends and are playing at a level of musicality that is completely unachievable of today's bullshit artists.

@valkour22 Are record sales the end all factor? Has Justin Beiber influenced music theory? I think not. However, John Coltrane has. Look into it.

@valkour22 Oh forgive me. I forgot about all of the contributions Justin made for music, and his sheer virtuosity with his instrument. Surely in the future people will remember the great milestone that was Justin Bieber and how he changed music forever. I mean, nobody did pop music before Justin did. He will surely go on as a legend, greater than Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, and Duke Ellington. Or maybe not. You tell me, oh great one with such superior music taste.
