I read once that Miles would call Evans and tell him to set the phone down on the piano while he practiced because Davis just like the way he played that much. I know exactly what he means.

You know he wants to have this removed so, so bad.

I love how he starts to get pissed around 4:55.

People are fucked up.

Stephen King on trumpet!

I thought this was Zappa's Sofa No. 1 at first.

I really don't like that saxophone sound. This guy could take a lesson in subtlety from Stan Getz or Sonny Rollins a la Saxophone Colossus. Good player, though.

I didn't realize until a few minutes in that the announcers were announcing the fights just as nonchalantly as they would an actual game of hockey. Is it always like this?

Man, you really do sound like Cannonball. But not a cookie cutter copy either, which I can appreciate. Can I get your setup please?

What a big sound. I haven't been able to "enjoy" metal mouthpieces yet, but I like the tone Dexter's getting from his. Thanks for posting!

@C0L050 Why do you think he is a bad composer?

@NevinJarek I agree, and I didn't know that about gamelan music. If you're interested, you should check out Hindemith's theory book The Craft of Composition. In it he discusses a lot of the physical properties of sounds, like combination tones and actual, physical chord roots (as opposed to theor...

@FHgitarre Technically, I think the difference between 6/4 and 3/4 was that although each third beat is accented (ONE two three; ONE two three FOUR five six), in 6/4 the first beat of every measure is accented more than the fourth beat. So, ONE two three Four five six, or something like that. Ima...

I never thought about it, but it must very nerve-wracking for the trombones to have to play that introduction in the fourth movement after resting for all of 14 minutes or so.

Wow. Great music.

@busessuck1 Holy shit, I didn't see that until you pointed that out. Holy fuck, that's weird.

Man, Wayne Shorter and John Coltrane have to be the strangest motherfuckers I've ever heard.

I've been coming back to this page over and over for about a year, now. It's a great song and a great video. Thanks so much for putting and leaving this up.

@KillswitchEngage42 Charlie Parker was even worse, possibly because of his heroin addiction. He would skip out on gigs, fuck with people for no reason, etc. There are lots of artists generally looked upon as geniuses who were jerks (Schoenberg) or utterly self-destructive (Parker) and some that ...

Thank you. You are doing good work.

A great track, although Coltrane is as off-putting to me as ever (talented as he is).

Every time signature has an infinite number of equivalent time signatures. This could be in 3/16, 6/16, 9/12, or 36/128. It's simply a notational issue and, like Alejandra said, is sometimes used to denote sp...
