EWF’s version of “After The Love Has Gone” is the version that we have embraced and loved for 50 years. It is THE version. That song wouldn’t be the memorable song that it has become without Philip Bailey’s incredible range and harmony in the vocals. There is nothing more iconic.
You obviously haven't heard "Leonid and friends" version. Give it a shot.
Jay Graydon and David Foster are GENIUSES !!!
I just watched the Wrecking Crew documentary. Jay's story of the great music of the 1970s and 80s would make such a great documentary. It needs to happen. Great interview.
Jay is gold
The older i get the more i realize the effect of Jay's songwriting and top notch guitar playing on my generation , growing up in the 80s. Back then , it seemed like all the Jarreau, EW&F, BENSON records were in line with a single genre , that is West Coast and Jay's playing was singlehandidly defining the style of that era. Not so much i was aware of him being behind it all , i was just enjoying that particular way of songwriting and gtr playing. Today, i dig him more than ever. A true master with elegance in music making and guitar playing . Thanks for the interview .
Quincy jones influence every l.a sounds he produced michael jackson biggest selling albums entirely career
Jay, the greatest guitarist and composer you never heard of. Just listen to his solo on ‘Peg’ by Steely Dan, absolute genius.
Oh, I’ve heard of him.
I love Jay's playing and production. He's the king of guitar harmonies. Would love to get copies of his charts.
“and touch the face of God” is the most powerful lyrical part of the already fantastic “Mornin’”. Al Jarreau hitting that blessed note on the very word God solidifies “Mornin’” as a flawless piece of art.
Warren Wiebe voice still is one of the greatest, RIP. I didn't expect the interview of the dissection of the Rhodes. Great interview.
I look forward to seeing Jay's guitar/engineering channel. This guy is so gifted and such a pro as well as fun to listen to.
I love Jay Graydon!
Man, I‘ve listened to „Roxann“ the first time yesterday and I could not stop listening! What a great tune!
Such a banger. Honestly must have listened to it 5,000 times this year.
For real
Al Jarreau just takes me to a bittersweet place. My kids were just infants during that period, and I listened to him all the time.
I love Airplay’s version of “After The Love”. Earth, Wind & Fire’s version is iconic and has become a signature tune for them. But I really enjoyed Jay’s clean and beautifully produced rendition.
I'm with Jay when he said music these days are just a bunch of "SH#T". I was a big tape, vinyl and CD collector before, but I stopped buying anything since around 20 yrs ago. Nothing is worth my hard earned money anymore. Jay is right when he said "all the beautiful melodies are gone and just went away"....I really am lucky to have enjoyed the good old days of the 70's and early 80s. And oh by the way, no way I'd subscribe to Spotify and pay for trash.
I have to agree with Jay. His Airplay for the Planet album is other worldly. And his solo on Roxann, and Warrens voice, if that doesn't light you up, you're not human!!! And for all you folks that think Earth Wind and Fire wrote, After the love has gone, Wrong, Jay wrote it, along with tons and tons of other hits. Jay is a walking treasure trove of hit music!!
Sorry about my EWF comment above. I got so excited when this came up in my recommended, I started typing before I watched 2 minutes of the video, and didn't realize they would talk about After the love has gone.
Jay
Thank you for all that you do.
Your music has touched my whole life.
Steve Lukather speaks very highly of you.
You are the truth brother.
I think what Jay says about the music degrading around 1987-88 is correct cause that's when I started not to keep up to date with the current music. At the time, I attributed it to just getting older. But, now, thinking back, the music wasn't as interesting as in the era between say 1975-1985. Although many people don't like Disco, the Disco era ushered the jazz influence in popular music because many Disco songs are very complex with jazz overtones.
Jay is right on point on the color thing. The whole issue sucks! People are people. Period.
I’m gonna sit on the ‘can’ and hope Devine inspiration hits!
love jay graydon, sad to think this great music will never be again. check out his work with Marc Jordan and Steve kipner
If you want to hear another versions of "After The Love is Gone", listen to Manhattan Transfer's "Smile Again"
Roxann is an amazing tune... I can't stop listening to that tune.
Thank you for not starting off with ‘the person who played the Peg solo’. I love Jay, I’ve been looking through all the stuff he’s contributed to.
What a legend! Thank you mr. Jay for your music! In my production I`m always trying to bring some melodic elements from the past (70-80s), I hope that after period of "2-note" production, interesting melodies and chord changes will back again in industry! Good things are just forgoten, like your NS-1000m speakers, not many modern speakers can compete with these if any!) Wish you good health, Jay!
I still have my NS1000s.
this is a gem....
jay should do a documentary...help!
awesome look into a genius mind.
Great stuff, thank you! Can't wait for Jay's instructional content to come!!!
Great interview. Thank you! Jay4Ever!!!
Wonderful stuff Tom, Kere.
his rhythm piano at the last of 1/3 of twilight zone... sheesh... he sounds like hes having a blast.. i always wanted to ask him about that
Jarreau is a masterpiece! I didn't buy the album until '85, but Mornin received constant air play on MTV and local radio.
god bless you jay
ATLHG is Jay and David's tune, so they are entitled to say which version of the Chorus melody they think is correct or best. But the melody Bill sings on Airplay version is a very different shape on the line, "What used to be right is wrong", than the simple scalar-stepwise motion of the three-part harmony of the EWF version. I like both versions equally.
Next, I'd like to hear Jay and David talk about how Al Jarreau''s song, "Save Me" was composed. The lyrics are brilliant, starting with the quote of Stevie's "Love's in Need of Love". The production of that tune is unbelievable, the Rhodes part so hook-filled, I'm dying to know who came up with which pieces, in which order.
The other thing to mention about the glorious sound of the E-Rhodes on the "Jarreau" album is that instead of using a straight+modulated combined sound of a chorus effect, they used a Roland/Boss CE-1 chorus (the later stereo CE-3 pedal can also do this effect), where the straight sound is panned hard to one channel, and the isolated modulated-only output is panned to the other side. It creates a huge stereo width, and a more gentle, less-washy chorus sound than monaural effects, or even +/- phased stereo chorus.
Brilliant maestro, my Dear maestro……🎶🎵🌎
Great stuff!
Anybody know if there is an interview with Jay talking about the GOAT: the solo on Steve Kipner's "The Ending"?
I NEED THAT INFO IN MY LIFE!!!
Tom, great interview. Did you ever get that chart uploaded for Twilight Tone?
Would love to see the documentary he’s talking about putting together.
The good old days - when Foster wasn't doing cookie-cutter Diane Warren ballads. "Mornin'" is just straight-up RIDICULOUS playing from the whole band but especially Foster. The little bits of ear candy and countermelodies I'm still uncovering so many years on. David CAN and DID play Jazz - even if he didn't know it.
David Foster's solo on al Jarreau's Mornin' definitely has some Donald Fagen jazzer flava. Jay's solo on Twilight Zone is very hep.
IMHO, the bridge of "Mornin'" is one of the best written bridges ever written. The build-up is unmatchable, and turns around back to the the original key in a perfectly natural and magical way, which is then boosted by the modulation up a semitone for the outro verse. A lot of writer's would have used the bridge to change keys for the final stretch. I love that these guys held off until after the synth solo/B-section recap to modulate for the outro verses. Also, I never knew the synth sound was a Yamaha CS20. Love all these details.
He blows all the session players away
I agree. Thats why I like watching and listening to folks like Jay G. I know Denny T spent one hell of a lot of money and it took him 19 years making the Wrecking Crew. But there needs to be another update cause the last version from the early 70s-90 before grunge and then Pro-Tools. Steve L book is great and that could be 10 fold or more in a documentary. I would love to sit in the house and just listen to him and Steve L just mess around.
Google the word Tyre
Fantastic music
Jay is amazinlgly faboulous.
If he needs $2,000,000 to make the documentary, then we need 20,000 music fans contributing $100 each to make it happen. Seems doable.
I'm in
Calling your music pals " baby " is a 50's jazz term. By the way Jay Graydon you are my favorite guitar soloist of all time. Well, maybe Reggie Young.
Is it possible to find a t-shirt with the albumpicture of Airplay for the planet, where can i find and buy some couples ?
Jay… See if Paul Allen’s organization (I don’t know who that is, but he did creative museum in Seattle, dedicated to Jimi Hendrix) would find this. Be a drop in the bucket for his estate, and he was a complete music head, even if he wasn’t focused on your scene in particular. And who knows? Maybe he was too.
What monitor speakers is he using in his control room.... they look like Yamaha ns1000mm ?
The higher chorus melody is better musically in my opinion
OK, you should be able to get every musician and music teacher to give money to a Go Fund Me for this music documentary. Create it and send to all music schools and online. I absolutely LOVE bands like Yes, Rush, Kansas, Steely Dan, Jeff Beck, Joni Mitchell, Mick Karns, JACO and all those jazz fusion cats!
But Jay is wrong when he says that Airplay for te planet named the song "After the Love has gone", they are singing "After The Love Is gone".
Jaye P. Morgan. S/T 1976
Jay Graydon: great producer, guitarist, and even singer. Love Al Jarreau's albums.
Andy Platts (Mamas Gun, Young Gun Silver Fox) still does it the old way: ruclips.net/video/_J-XXrwYIjg/видео.html ruclips.net/video/E1JiTkufJgY/видео.html Greatest bands no know knows about in America.
I like Jay, a real legend, I'd love be in studio with him as drummer, he's so demanding, you grow after working with him.
But, He doesn't understand BLM ? :o
Damn, it's like in music, A LOT of stuff come from or/and are influences by the Black culture, yet people just talk about bloody Presley, the Stones, and so on...
Get your shit together man, cops kills black people, not white people are killed by cops, so when we say BLM, it doesn't mean that the others don't...
Anyway, alway great to have Jay talking about music, he's a real legend.
Just my 10c. I know all those LA cats were talented and the California A team. BUT thank god, there was also, ramones, blondie, buzzcocks, beatles, stones, sex pistols, pink floyd, genesis, oasis, brit pop, new order, depeche, OMD, motown, stax, all the kings, BB, albert, freddie, He rattles on & on like a king with no crown. And his best friend ray parker jr. borrowed huey lewis and the news. enough already.
私も大好きよ、ロクサーヌ！！！日本語だと六さんになっちゃうね(￣▽￣)
If you REALLY like Jay's song Roxanne DON'T play it on Spotify or Apple Music BUY the damn thing. Listen to what Jay says about how Spotify has screwed all us song writers and NEVER stream again. Otherwise you are ignoring his pleas he made on this very video! Please!
I'm a songwriter myself - I'm well aware of the pittance that streaming companies pay and frequently highlight on this show, alongside buying 100s of physical copies of people's work, including Jay's.
What a shame, someone who 'has' given his whole life to music has to ask for a sponsorship....
Like if Arts weren't to mean anything to humanity!
Hope!
When jay said "all lives matter" I cringed. But when he said "I just don't get it " i found some relief. .and suddenly agreed with him.he just doesn't get it. Terrific musical genius though.
Why did you cringe? Should the lives of one race be more valuable than another?
@@jamesa.1345 if you re not black . .and haven't come through slavery . .and racism and marginalization and institutionalised segregation. .and now deadly racial profiling you will "understandably"not understand the black lives matter ideal.picture it this way. you have a puncture on your one tyre and you get to a gas station and say to the mechanic "This tyre is low and needs pressure "and he turns to you and says "hey. .all tyres need pressure. Lets be fair to all tyres"
Black lives matter does not say one Life matters more than the other.no.its a rallying cry for the one tyre thats been neglected ostracized maimed. .thrown alive in the Atlantic ocean. .chained and now cannot breathe.
Oh he gets it alright. He just doesn't fall for all the bullshit made up by all the communist and idiotic "critical race theory" professors that started this avalanche of lies and propaganda years ago. He's too smart, and has a brain of his own to investigate the actual truth, and knows when something is totally idiotic, and created for the brain dead sheep that can't think for themselves. I knew there was something special about Jay I've loved for the last 40 plus years. I respect him much much more now.
I like jay but no you don’t deserve Grammy for showing Janis some chord voicings
Pretty disappointing to see a guitar hero departing from the music convo to knock Black Lives Matter.
I think Jay meant to say Bill Champlin, not Bill Cantos. Cantos is a huge talent, but he was only 16 and attending Crawford High the year "After The Love Has Gone" was released. Crawford High sure did crank out more than their fair share of musical talent, tho. Warren Wiebe, Stephen Bishop, Hollis Gentry, Nathan East, and Bill Cantos.
