Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - Goldie

[jazzjanne1]

This sounds real Blues!

[johnnymontgomey]

Very Good!

[Littlewhitelephant]

Clifford Brown was always inventing new beautiful melody lines.

Lee Morgan in my impression is also a melodic (hot) trumpet player.

Both are more melody oriented but with the knowledge of the overtones.

Miles is cool and not hot.

I'm always happy if I notice the link to the head in a solo.

[Cheneuer]

Best jazz song ever...

[Sonostatonominato]

Jazz...

[wahunter]

That Lee Morgan solo is the real deal!!!

[CheckMate657879]

Is Walter Davis, the pianist, sitting in a chair, 5:20? It looks like there's another back behind his back. Anybody? Anybody?

[enward327]

@CheckMate657879 I've seen a lot of '50s videos where the pianist is on a wood chair with a back

[CheckMate657879]

@enward327 Thanks for responding - just trying to make sure I wasn't having an optical illusion.

[DJBLESS1able]

fiya!!!!

[Juewettb]

Funky, phunky, funk-e!! Out of sight as James Brown used to say. Looks like the people love it too. I think this was recorded in France.

[douglasgorney]

Lee Morgan! Love how he's working the overdrive at the end of his solo, playing with the electronics, 10 years ahead of Miles.

[vastusinternus]

Man! I've never seen someone play a bass instrument with so much energy. He was about to tear it apart.

[Aiden057]

I'm so lucky to have seen Art more than once and even talked to him between sets once. What a great man he was. I love how he swings the band and what great, great players came though The Messengers, thank you for posting this great clip.

[vastusinternus]

I wish I could have seen the Messengers.

[willytimba]

yo whats that video at the end? put it up!

[Soulnik]

Dig it ♫♫♫♫♫

[crimthann86]

LEE!!!

[ValdBastos95]

Excelentes músicos.Grande performance!

[123BubberMiley]

that's great, the bass solo just keeps going and you can see everybody is starting to get antsy.

[ricardo1303]

very good song

I saw Jimmy Cobb play with the Gerry Allen Trio at the ATL Jazz Festival. It was awesome seeing an icon like Jimmy Cobb playing live in person, especially since I'm a drummer myself. Art Blakey is definately one of my all time favs tho. He had so many great Jazzmen the came up through the Jazz Messengers during all those wonderful years of Jazz.

[BuckshotLaFunke]

Yes, mmz, always astounding to hear one of your icons perform live. I hneard Dexter Gordon play an intricate 'Bye Bye Blackbird', but his accompanists refused to give the chord progressions away. 'Mr Gordon's secret, you know.'

[greendream5]

These guys define jazz

[apsmaster]

got dat right

[ssballs]

What drum playing!All Argue/Barfue(d)ing aside.

[TONWITBERG]

DVD= Art Blakey"s Jazz Messengers Paris 1959

november 15, 1959 Theatre de Champs-Elysées, Paris with Lee Morgan tp Wayne Shorter ts Walter Davis Jr p Jymie Merritt b Art Blakey dr

[posttristerorobert]

Lee's solo is wonderful but the sound is a bit out of sync

[dreadtodred]

great trumpet plyers lee morgan, freddie hubbard,fats navvarrro,bill hardman,blue mitchell,johnnie coles,diz,clifford brown,dizzy reese etc etc ,I love them all

[Ch10023]

This piece is one of my favorites for its flavor, pace, innovation...Makes me wish I was in Paris in 1959 at this exact moment in time and space.

[jamarchand]

Certainly not the greatest fraud ever known to Jazz, Wynton Marsalis aka the George Bush of Jazz.(sic)

Certainly just a idiot argue. Absolutelly disconnected from reality and the art of trumpet. 10 in 10 trumpet experts vote Marsalis as the master of his instrument.

This is not a question of taste....but a technical and objective parameter.

Peolple are free to prefer A, B or C. But offend the truth and other players, just to elogiates your favorite musician...is ridiculous, is silly.

[Ch10023]

I disagree with this. Remember that Wynton Marsalis is now an Ambassador of Jazz by accepting the post at Lincoln Center. By definition he probably must be a bit more conservative than experimental in order to satisfy Lincoln Center and its high art Patrons.

He is a consummate artist and communicator and has helped keep jazz alive where commercial interest has been mainly directed elsewhere.

[posttristerorobert]

Marsalis has the soul of a lawyer

[JazzVideoGuy]

Nobody played the trumpet like Lee Morgan, and no one today, comes close. Certainly not the greatest fraud ever known to Jazz, Wynton Marsalis aka the George Bush of Jazz.

[daveheasman]

This tune is "What Know".

[dreadtodred]

art blakey (buhaina) one of the best drummers in history of jazz knew how to keep time and had skills bless his soul .he would press roll,sock cymbal and kick a bass drum to pieces.M y uncle seen him in the 60,s through the 80,s had to hold his ears, thunder rolls

[lukeasacher]

Gonna see Jimmy Cobb and Roy Haynes in Montreal at the Festival this year. Along with Eddie Locke, they're the last hard men!

[dreadtodred]

you are so right man.I just got finised listening to jimmycobb with julian priester,wyton kelly and paul chambers on a cd with a cat named benton who played sax.jimmy cobb loved that cat, rim shot city.roy haynes pure digging in.peace.

[jovesheerwater]

This is so gdamn hot!!! Shorter is mmm damn.

Pity the syncing is out. Why does this happen with some vids and not with others?

jwalkam ask Dave Chertok where all the classic jazz footage is. In his friggin' vault, that's where. And he won't let anybody see it unless you pay him! The music belongs to the people Chertok you greedy putz!

[jwalkam]
