i was fortunate enough to play a concert with Faddis when I was a kid (bass). true story: he invited our band to his condo, and he told us to bring a short autobiography with us (he wanted to get to know us individually before we played together). he also ordered HIMSELF a pizza lol. while our bari player is reading his story, and crying when he mentioned his dad passing away, Faddis pauses eating his pizza and leans to the side and farts lol. we all looked at each other in shock and hilarity, and he says, "...My farts don't smell." and the trumpet player says, "yeah right," and waves it away lol. great person and funny guy lol.
All the people that say Faddis can't do anything but scream... he does one of the best Miles impersonations I've ever heard, even the slides into the higher notes that he used to do. What an outstanding rendition.
I've heard people say that too. They obviously haven't listened to very much of him. It's probably just the typical sheep. Repeating what they heard elsewhere in order to try to appear smart.
John Is an awesome musician and trumpet player and a very humble gentleman, with mad skills and chops . The very under appreciated most funk mixologist.
We sure got some experts down below! ......America has so many experts!, NO ONE in my hood knows what jazz is!, Where are ALL these experts hiding? TESTOSTERONE IS THE CULPRIT
Timeless beauty. Faddis is amazing and the group is superb, using the "Autumn Leaves" arrangement from the Miles/Cannonball Blue Note album "Somethin' Else". Thank you very much, David, for the video.
Me encanta el pianista por su expresión corporal, vive la música. De la ejecución no voy a opinar, pues son verdaderos maestros. El tema es un clásico del jazz, muy asequible según algunos entendidos, pero al mismo tiempo muy divertido, porque permite improvisar, añadir, volar, etc...Larga vida a estos maestros que nos hacen felices cada día. Gracias.
I, also 27, am displeased at the lack of recognition these great jazz musicians receive. As a classically and jazz-trained trombonist, I understand the vast amount of time and practice these guys put in, and damn does it show. So awesome.
This is just TOO MUCH!! So smooth! This is actually what "Smooth Jazz" should be and not the crap called "smooth jazz". The bari player is such a wonderful contrast to Faddis' softly muted trumpet. As a bass player myself, I endorse the great quality of the recording. Every bass note can be heard clearly. Great Jazz!!
Wow amazing now that I would pay to see live, I am a drummer and love all types of music this was just amazing, AMAZING, AMAZING just a shame that these musicians don't get the recognition they deserve. I mean every one know's Lady Ga Ga, but not many young people know people like this. I am 27 and was bought up on all types of music from The Who all the way to Carl Orff and I think that is the way it should be or in years to come these greats will just totally disappear what a shame.
Miles Dewey Davis III (May 26, 1926 - September 28, 1991) was an American trumpeter, bandleader, and composer. He is among the most influential and acclaimed figures in the history of jazz and 20th-century music. In 1935, Davis received his first trumpet as a gift from John Eubanks, a friend of his father.His mother wanted him to play the violin instead. He took lessons from "the biggest influence on my life," Elwood Buchanan, a teacher and musician who was a patient of his father. Against the fashion of the time, Buchanan stressed the importance of playing without vibrato and encouraged him to use a clear, mid-range tone. Davis said that whenever he started playing with heavy vibrato, Buchanan slapped his knuckles .According to Davis, "By the age of 12, music had become the most important thing in my life." In July 1944, Billy Eckstine visited St. Louis with a band that included Art Blakey, Dizzy Gillespie, and Charlie Parker. Trumpeter Buddy Anderson was too sick to perform, so Davis was invited to join. He played with the band for two weeks at Club Riviera. After playing with these musicians, he was certain he should move to New York City, "where the action was". His mother wanted him to go to Fisk University, like his sister, and study piano or violin. Davis had other interests. In mid-1945, Davis failed to register for the year's autumn term at Juilliard and dropped out after three semesters because he wanted to perform full-time. Years later he criticized Juilliard for concentrating too much on classical European and "white" repertoire, but he praised the school for teaching him music theory and improving his trumpet technique.

Wow! J.J. rocks! ...really inventive with great introspective ideas - a thinking man's chorus (or several!). Faddis sounds like he's channeling Diz- not Miles! Fantastic!!!!
😂😂😂👏👏👏 bravo performance sir, what a joy must've played it every evening smh 😂😂😂☝️☝️☝️ yes sir. Hilarious how he just stands there and say I did nothing smh... wonderfully arranged highs and lows smooth.
Well played by Jon and his musicians. The intro is from the arrangement on the Cannonball Adderley Somethin' Else Blue Note LP in 1959. One of Mile's greatest LPs, I say Mile's LP because this is almost the same Miles Davis group that recorded Kind Of Blue on Columbia, Miles takes the first solo on most of the tunes. I listen to Somethin' Else more than Kind of Blue, but that is my own opnion.
Actually, I prefer the "Something Else" CD over "Kind Of Blue" myself but I never say it out loud. It's almost considered blasphemous to rate another jazz album over "Kind Of Blue". Jazz fans will take you to task for that. I'm surprised you haven't gotten a bunch of nasty responses for your comment. Happy holidays.
+Willie Jordan Something Else had a softer touch to me, far more emotional and brilliant. just saying. but my favorite is relaxing with the mile davis quintet ,then something else
Hi 4/4 Prince, Václav Havel liked rock´n´roll - no problem. Václav Klaus really liked jazz and had 93 /ninety three/ jazz concerts at Prague Castle /2004-2013/. Jon Faddis was one of them.
jarma76:😠 I am with you on that point. Interpretation, Champ; isn't it?😠 Actually, "Autumn Leaves", when translated from its original French title of "Les Feuilles Mortes", literally offers us "The Dead Leaves". To the French, the song, by its very title, conjures up an ambience of melancholia and chagrin - hence the apropos mood created by Jon Faddis. Well done, in an "UnFaddizian" fashion, may I apprehensively add. Great observation!😠
Awesome! Although Cannonball with Miles recorded what I consider the most definitive version, this performance ranks among the very finest. Faddis has incredible chops and a really lovely swing. The whole band deserve the recognition, and the flowers at the end are such a nice touch!

It's probably just the typical sheep. Repeating what they heard elsewhere in order to try to appear smart.
The music will never die, it might not be as popular, but it will never die as long as people continue to listen, play and keep the tradition alive!
グーでした。ベリーグー マイルスクインテッドの枯れ葉を彷彿させましたが、又 異なるオリジナリティを感じ乗ってしまいました。皆さん渋くて達者な方ばかりです。良いものに出会えて感謝です。Thank you
Music. The universal language.
Thanks David J. for a fine film,and the President is a cool guy to promote our Jazz,which is so nice of him.
Muy bueno sonido limpio,buenos músicos, me gusto la sordina.
John Is an awesome musician and trumpet player and a very humble gentleman, with mad skills and chops . The very under appreciated most funk mixologist.
I'll take Faddis over Bergeron any day.
We sure got some experts down below!

OMG I am waiting so much tho see them in my life ❤️
Recuerdo decada de los 80!! Vino a Córdoba Capital.. Argentina
I love this version of Autumn Leaves. One of my tops.
Un pianiste admirable est Jazzi j'aime ces longues notes au saxo merci RUclips ou Siri
The muted trumpet drives the music for a lazy Autmn Day to watch colours of Autmn Leaves fall.
Timeless beauty. Faddis is amazing and the group is superb, using the "Autumn Leaves" arrangement from the Miles/Cannonball Blue Note album "Somethin' Else". Thank you very much, David, for the video.

Thanks Rudy, Emil
Oh man, that piano solo was amazing
+Kenneth Fleming Thanks Ken, best regards, Emil

True, it was a ball to play with Lenny...
+Emil Viklicky Your piano solo is just fantastic. Congrats.
Emil Viklicky no problem, man ( ;
Great to hear Jon, great clip

Beautiful music and superb performance.!
mr faddis' intonation is just amazing in this song!
A particular challenge when using a Harmon mute, especially in notes below the staff. He was largely successful.
Such an honour to meet Mr Faddis at the Montreux Jazz Festival!

This is soooo good!
Fantastic !!!
A música em si já é belíssima.E quando tratada com um arranjo e acordes assim é pura viagem sonora.
very good
I have played in Prag with the Munich Allstars in 1964, they sure know what good Jazz is.
What a perfect performance!
A touch of class thank you
That double time in the piano solo so dope
love the gentle bari sax!!!
Great cooperation ! And they enjoy it . Fantastic.
absolutely marvelous...my dance choreography status enjoy such impecable class of music...I thank u...

muitissimo bom
Fabuloso! My favorite jazz standard.
I sang a version of this with my jazz group in high school. One of my favorite songs and also one of the most difficult to sing.
Wonderful 🎺😅

Love it. Great musicians. Chops and taste.
Fantastic Trumpeter

So smooth and effortless
Love you guys
Wow! J.J. rocks! ...really inventive with great introspective ideas - a thinking man's chorus (or several!). Faddis sounds like he's channeling Diz- not Miles! Fantastic!!!!
I agree, sounds more like Diz than Miles!
I hear a combination of both Dizzy and Miles.
wunderbar - vom feinsten !!
fantastic !!
😂😂😂👏👏👏 bravo performance sir, what a joy must've played it every evening smh 😂😂😂☝️☝️☝️ yes sir. Hilarious how he just stands there and say I did nothing smh... wonderfully arranged highs and lows smooth.

Hi Willy,Both are great albums and Happy Holidays to you.
John Healy Me too
molto valido

Something Else had a softer touch to me, far more emotional and brilliant. just saying. but my favorite is relaxing with the mile davis quintet ,then something else
Hi 4/4 Prince, Václav Havel liked rock´n´roll - no problem. Václav Klaus really liked jazz and had 93 /ninety three/ jazz concerts at Prague Castle /2004-2013/. Jon Faddis was one of them.
So nice to hear Jon Faddis play in a very good taste in the lower register as opposed to his usual style!
jarma76:😠
I am with you on that point. Interpretation, Champ; isn't it?😠
Actually, "Autumn Leaves", when translated from its original French title of "Les Feuilles Mortes", literally offers us "The Dead Leaves".
To the French, the song, by its very title, conjures up an ambience of melancholia and chagrin - hence the apropos mood created by Jon Faddis.

Que musica mas hermosa, por Dios,,,
Magnifica version
that's interpretation with feeling !!
Vaclav Klaus? I think its Vaclav Havel? Anyway, amazing groove. So mesmerizing. Love it. Thanks for loading it.
well, this jazz video is close to 300.000 views. Wow!
