I met him for the first time in the late 70's when he was paired with Barney Kessel in a club in Dayton, Ohio. He played a lot like my teacher so I gravitated to him. He was the one who started my jazz excursion and I am forever grateful. I have been going back through these old videos and picking up the tunes to put in my sets as tribute to his influence on me.
I saw him in ‘84, with the great Barney Kessel. It was a brilliant straight-ahead jazz gig. After the interval they brought on Marion Montgomery. What more could one ask for?
How do you do. I'm Shin'ichiro,Sato （male）. From Japan . Thank you , so much , Mr. Ellis's excellently jazz guitar play movie . (PM11:02)Jun.23, sun., 2019.
Riff at 2:11 and 2:39 is one of my favorite riffs ever. I've heard ryo Kawasaki use it, I think he was the first (I'm probably wrong). I've actually never heard it used once, that's how good it is! If anyone has heard it anywhere else, let me know.
Herb Ellis was a grand master in the jazz realm! This is a great jazz standard,,, but in my opinion the sound is slightly dry,, and either a rhythm guitarist, to supply the needed depth and fill the holes,,, or,,, keyboards! I guess I'm spoiled lol,, I listen mostly to ~Mr. Joe Pass~ who accompanied the great Oscar Peterson, and routinely would play all 3 parts ,,,, the chords, the bass line(s), and the lead melody ...................... at the same time~!~
I’m not sure, though I’m leaning toward a 175 due to the tailpiece. But the ES175 CES has one pickup, the ES175D CES is the two pickup model. The ‘D’ designates double pick-up. I’ve played both the 165 and the 175 and I believe the 175 is the better guitar. Herb was the player that sold me on jazz guitar, back in the 60’s. I believe his playing, with Oscar Peterson and Ray Brown, at the Canadian ‘Stratford Shakespearean Festival’ resulted in the best guitar trio jazz recording ever made.

SWINGING WITH HERB ELLIS - - WONDERFUL - -
I saw him in ‘84, with the great Barney Kessel. It was a brilliant straight-ahead jazz gig. After the interval they brought on Marion Montgomery.

Ellis’s tone was so darn smooth, I like to butter my strings with it.
Jak to kiedyś się mówiło,,Nieźle wymiata,,❤ DZIĘKUJĘ. EXTRA.
これぞジャズギター！ギター特有のパリッと乾いた音色で、PA含めこのサウンドメイクには圧巻だ
The spontaneous audience applause he got for the lick he played from around 2:49-2:57....They KNEW what they were listening to.
The tone is killing me incredible, and then incredible forever

You can also hear that on Donna Lee by Charlie Parker :)
It's a Charlie Parker line.
カッコいい🎶

In the right situation Herb will dazzle - just like he does here. . .
No, Herb Ellis dies in March, 2010, of Alzheimer's disease. Thank for watch!
@2468Bubbly Thanks for watching !
Booooo,genius, Joan, Catalonia free,💕💕❤️
Question: What's the difference between Herb Ellis and all these circus clown shredders who infect the internet nowadays ? Answer: He can swing !
This blows my mind! Is Herb Ellis still alive?
Sova till klockan 7
Looks like Bob Magnuson on bass?
Grandioso! basso e batteria chi sono? Bass and drums? Grazie
Bob Magnusson on bass, couldn't identify the drummer.
Anyone know if that's a ES-165, or an ES-175?
I guess its an 165. As far as i know the only difference is that the 165 has only one PU, just like the guitar in the video.
