I'm happy that the art of the bass face is alive and well!
Every bass player, novice or expert, is overcome by the face at some point; for some it's hard to get the bass face turned off sometimes ;-)

you gotta love how bass and electric look so into it and concentrated, and then you just see the drummer sitting there smiling :)
dude looks like he’s wrestling a bear during that solo
I mean have you played a bass? Same thing pretty much.
@@danielcorrigan8805 down to the size of it lol
That's why some bass players stand on their bass, keeps it from attacking the audience during unruly passages
@@danielcorrigan8805 Same second name as me only one letter lol
Hi, thank you for your comment, I had to laugh hard and loud with it, on this Sunday morning :D Good start of my day.
All amazing musicians, but dudes c'mon, that drums lick at 3:07 is out of this world !
Indeed. He took us for a little "ride" 😉
That's super tasty, for sure..... very very nice. Give the drummer some!
Definitely a highlight! He threw us in the ocean for refreshment for a while 🤣
Quarter notes triplets, but with much class and elegance
thank you for showing me what i didn't even see bro. you're a legend
It swings. Good conversation… and then good conversation!
The bass solo was cool! I liked the incorporation of the bow! The other musicians did a good job supporting the solo.
I appreciate what the Bass Player said about the Soloist playing also for the Drummer and Bass.
What a nice guitar tone
Fun video! Three amazing players. Great song selection too - I hadn't heard this tune in years. The setup discussion up front is such a vital lesson, especially for cats who are playing together for the first time.
Totally absorbing to hear these three experts both playing exquisitely and then drawing on their deep knowledge in fascinating discussion. Marvellous.
I loved the bassists solo great job to all of uou
A couple of things I've learned along the way, my teacher once said my job is to make everyone else sound great. I've kinda learned there's what I'm playing, what the bass player's playing, and the collective sound of everyone playing together and to make that sound the best... Thanks
That was pretty tight, thanks. I just can't see why anyone would down thumb this video, they were all on point plus you're getting a free lesson. What the hell more do u want?
Bravo!!! Tom Dempsey is the best! I had some amazing classes with him back in 2012! Next time in NYC I hope to see him playing a live concert! Best regards from Sao Paulo/Brazil 👏👏👏
Can there EVER be a time when the Bassist solos and the Entire Band doesn't seem to drop off the face of the earth? Really educational video 👌
Just wanted to compliment the trio on a very nice performance. I'd pay good money to listen to you guys any time, no problem whatsoever. Tasteful jazz players who do well in a trio setting, well, they don't grow on trees. You guys know your stuff.
Can’t agree more about the prominence of melody.
I heard three licks that almost sounded like The Lick and my fight or flight kicked in during the final head
i counted four, guitarist was definitely teasing it
3:36
thank you very much. that bass guy ari, is a rock star. well said and played incredibly backing up your philosophies!
That was awesome guys...thanks so much.
My guy is dancing with that bass… so much passion in one piece my goodness
That is some fine drumming.
Music smooth af but ma bass player got one of the best stank faces ever!
ok this is legendarily good
Really?
@@yeboscrebo4451 Yes 100%
Fabulous!!! Love hearing this conversation!
i love how the drummer is smiling literally the entire time
This video has the best bass face and the best shirt/tie color combo, Amazing
U can hear the bass player audiate during his solo and I think that’s really cool
Wow Amazing !!! Congrats for the Trío Jazz 👏🏻
Ooh, nice job! The three of you work very nice together
Thanks for the video Good Groove . Love Mads - Bass - - Jazz Bass
Este video es oro!! Buenos consejos para poner en práctica 🔥✨
Nice. Smooth Communication.
Awesome!! Any vids of this trio playing more?
Ari Roland! WOW!!
Wow that BASS face!
ドラムが入った瞬間気持ち良すぎてにやけた
Really interesting guys - thanks
Very interesting - thank you !
that bass solo was sick
Yup, that definitely happened to me.
I wanna all RUclips jazz video have comments like this)))
Guitarist really good
hey ari, any tips for a new bassist cutting through a jazz band?
Bass isn't really supposed to be cut through as much as it's supposed to be felt if that makes sense
Yes. Don't.
In most circumstances, comping instruments shouldn't actually cut through the band that much. This is true in jazz, rock, country, blues, etc. They should be more felt than obviously heard. Bass, drums, and rhythm guitar will almost meld into one collective instrument when the rhythm section really locks in.
In terms of cutting through on a solo, you're really helped by having whoever's comping for you help out by paring back (but not stopping!) and by soloing up the board more, playing more rhythmically outside, and playing with more attack. On an electric you can tweak the knobs or go to the bridge pickup during a solo. I guess if you're playing a really bass-forward genre like funk or disco it needs to cut, but I'd probably do that by EQing so that other instruments disappear more, and even then, the vocals are still the big feature.
@@lucythegiant4104 What if the bass is meant to be the focus of the song?
Use an electric bass
the cat on the drums is EPIC
The bass player is a great actor
Yes.
Just yes.
👌.. Thank You
aggressive bass line. cool!
In first drum 8 are the others really listening to drums? Also, maybe my ears are deceiving me, but is there a momentary loss of the time when they come back to the head after the second drum 8?
Anybody know what model ride cymbal that is?
I don't know the exact model but its a Bosphorus cymbal, maybe a master series
Excelente eh kool
3:00 that is a line from chet baker! , but the key is more likely the version of Ryo Fukui. Check it out. Such a heartwarming song.
It Is Just the head of the Song
Good talk.
how i aspire my own trio to work one day
Yeah it sucks on bass when the others don't support or listen when you solo.
太帅了
Great playing, shame the bass audio was recorded on an iPhone 3gs
The shear zest!
looks like a bosphorus jazz master on that guys ride.
I’m but was that English at the start there
Felt what the bass player said. I don't care if the soloist is playing a carpet! Keep it swinging!!!
I have a gut feeling the double bass guy is going to be a meme REAL SOON
I gotta say that the bow definately has it‘s place in jazz but you can rarely hear a solo with the bow and think: „oh my god, unbelievable“
It‘s always a struggle and since it is super hard to have good intonation with the bow it‘s kinda underwhelming although you can clearly see and hear he is a very good bass player.
Strings make a big difference on bowed bass--a lot of jazz bassists use strings that are optimized for plucking tone, but sound worse bowed than the strings classical bassists use. His solo might sound better with classical oriented strings, but his walking tone might suffer.
Just need Ron Burgundy on jazz flute and I think we’ll have something !!!
Is the bass player bowing out of tune or does it just sound like that when you bow fast? Now at least I don't worry about my bowing anymore. :D
Yeah he sounded a bit off. :/
It's something normal when you play with bow at those speeds, still amazing arco solo!
Why does the drummer hold his stick like that
That's the correct way for a jazz percussionist - more control and subtle for a sensitive player - not like a rock drummer!
Because jazzzz
If you're referring to his left hand, that's how one learned to play snare drum back 100+ years ago (called "traditional grip"). So in the early days of jazz, since just about every drummer used traditional grip, techniques developed that were based on holding the stick that way. It's a little more difficult to duplicate those techniques with matched grip. For example, notice how his left stick comes down to the snare at an angle, rather than parallel to the snare's surface. That's a technique called "tipping," and it results in a different sound. Doing that with matched grip requires lifting the arm, which puts your body in an awkward position, and makes for slower transitions into and out of that position.
Remember when jazz used to be underground, unnerdy and cool?
What do you mean ? It always have been snobbish, espacially for people who can’t play music
I've never seen more pretentious musicians than jazzmen
@@aniceyyzloc2726 It's not true in my experience.. Jazz wasn't always about people educated in college. Jazz was a street based music that came out of the black culture. But there were some who looked down on other types of music. That doesn't represent everyone.
damn he almost ended it on the licc
The base guy is um…in to it. I mean he’s really good but the face
Thats jazz. Wait till you hear Keith Jarrett
Was it just me is does that bow desperately need some rosin ?
it's the weird paul chambers arco sound that some people actually want. Guess it's his choice to have that sound
@@user-yy6lu4bc7b i call it the "stepping on the cat's tail" sound
I think his bass is broken it’s sideways 😩
Bass is pushing. Great tone and intonation tho.
