I like chameleon but that keytar sounds like shit

It's because he's black.

I like it when soloists go outside. This is a modal tune. If the soloist doesn't go outside then he/she is as creative as a circa 60s rock guitarist. Haven't we heard enough of inside pentatonic playing from those cats?

for some reason i adore this keytar sound

Do you laugh at clouds too? Vanilla conformist drones: this isn't a college jazz band, they're pro jazzmen, the leader of which was there near the beginning, creating some of the standards.

The real legends didn't go and play other peoples compositions note for note in the expected manner on the proper instrument for the privilege of paying tuition at music school- they were too busy creating the greatest American art form. If you play music and are hating, you've sadly never had the thrill

Every time I hear the part at 2:38 I burst out laughing!

That technique can sound amazing when used sparingly and when the soloist uses it to build and release tension. The problem is when people take it too far for no damn reason. That said, I usually love Herbie but he has his moments.

2:38 XD

I hate when the solos are.out of.the key with the song...

[MrBigolnuts]

theres a good reason why the keytar died a sad and lonely death.....
