Wow that is such a great fun description of the chet album 🎉😍👍
Love Nat Adderley!❤ great video! Love the jazz, the prose, the poetry of your story. Beautiful. Made me smile. Can’t believe I just found your channel a few weeks ago. Lots of catching up to do!
Hopefully the new OJC will bring some of these out, that Blue Mitchell you have on the front page for this video is fantastic
We’re so lucky to have your videos. You are like a great professor. Equal parts knowledge and inspiration. Thank you! Thank you!
Wish others on youtube would do something similar. Enough with the LPs you bought last week. Follow the shepherd!
I
Teach me something new, play me a passage that blows you away and point out who is playing that wild solo.
Thnx very much, i appreciate the kind words... to be honest I find many other vinyl channels are garbage!!!
Annoying lacking insight, or perspective!!
Like you said.. I bought this last week shit??
Dan, never stop making these videos!!
Thnx brutha.. O appreciate the encouragement
Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk is an Excellent Riverside Records album.
Its fantastic... But also a little.cliche..kinda the obvious choice.
Myself..i do like Monk better with out horns...
When you where creating the scene while Chet Baker was playing, I closed my eyes and could go there, excellent Dan.
Yeah thats a fun one for sure!!!!!!!
Awesome!!
Thanks!
Watched this video from a year ago last night. Having never been irritated enough to consider responding to a You Tube video comment I was surprised at Dan/Jazz Shepherd's suggestion that George Russell was a "white cat". I believe his mother was African American and he was brought up steeped in the African American church and culture and educated at a HBCU. He was indeed a Black American composer.
yes my mistake.... but in my defense ..take a look at all his lp photos from the 50s... Decca n RCA did everything they could to make him appear white... ( A common thing in that era sadly)
Excellent selection, Jazz Shepherd. Riverside had a lot of great covers and some gorgeous colour photography. Love the cover of Bobby Timmons This Here and Rollins’ Freedom Suite. Would love to hear a run down of your personal favourite musicians on each instrument.
Thats a great idea for an episide.
But some tough choices to make.
I once again tip my hat to your insight.The Jazz Shepherd= the Age of Enlightenment!
thnx man!! very cool of you to say!! Jazz teaches us with every listen...it is empathy that allows us to hear anything at all!!!
"It was a misty street" hahahaha fucking excellent!.....why am I thinking of Tom Waits all of a sudden. cheers!
Tom Waits is a great example of jazz lyrics, he is improvising feeling n mood with words!!
That is the way to paint with a trumpet as well!!
@@TheJazzShepherd yes it is indeed
Dan, another killer video. I'm blown away by your analysis, knowledge and your subtle wit and humor. Bad Ass! Looking forward to what follows.
Thnx Tony..Its a lot of fun making these Vids..... Apprecaite your support....
Appreciate your kind words!!!
That Baker, Evans LP is pure beauty and deep feeling. A real favorite of mine. Fist bump.
yes GORGEOUS COUNTRYSIDE!!!
I played Chet yesterday, your right. Perfect rainy day music
absolutely!!! Esp that track I played!!! Noir as it gets!!
❤
Wonderful and intelligent demonstrations, and full of feeling. Hooked on this man's videos.
Thnx my friend..... alwasy nice to hear feedback that values the thought processes
Great stuff as usual🙏🔥
Nice plastikman slipmat! Great video, thanks for the jazz info.
Hey dan long time no see. Been off the grid for a bit. Love your riverside rundown showing your dj skills and monologue. Your description of that chet album is visually great. I'll remember that noir scene everytime i play it. Just found a great analogue productions copy of that. It kills me when i see the prices of these riversides. I had them all at one point. Economics forced me to sell them years ago. Riverside is my favorite label even more so than blue note in many instances. Don friedman was an extraordinary pianist and played with many progressive and innovative artists. He used to hang out with scott lafaro, charles lloyd, billy higgins in los angeles in the early sixties. I think george russell was actually african american but very light. Love all his early decca albums: in kansas city, jazz in the space age etc. Ezzthetics is killer as is stratusphunk etc...some other great riversides are the trio with walter norris, blue mitchell's cupbearers with junior cook, sonny red images, clifford jordan starting time, grant green the mode and many more. Thanks again dan for an interesting journey!!
George Russell is a brtha? Cool..did not know that...
Hope u been well
Love Riversiide..outstanding label.
That Chet is so dramatic in vibe.
That Nat record Will wake you up in the morning!
yes sir,,,, its a beast
Thanks for the extra effort of playing parts of every record, really enjoyable! Didn't knew Bobby timmons's wrote Moanin', will definetly been looking for it. Man, you're a living jazz library, it's amazing and impressive!
i am still learning every day man.... but thnx.... Information becomes Knowledge , knowledge plus time creates wisdom... wisdom plus empathy creates INSIGHT!!!!
It is insight and empathy that lights my way to understanding this music... Thats all about what it makes me feel , You know what I am saying???
@@TheJazzShepherd Yep! Insight and empathy combined with your knowledge of the social context and the labels and music industry is what makes your youtube channel so enjoyable to watch!
Thats what matters to me the most..
Love.. Of this art... Of these people...
Of all mamkind.
There are great efforts at work to prevent broad empathy
Even to prevent inconvenient education n understanding.
God dam...that Chet album is INSANE! 🎼🤪🎼
You have such a great knowledge about Jazz, I can agree to all you say in this video! You really get the music. I still have a foto on my wall from a gig I played with Don Freedman in NY in 1994, Don is a monster player, so underrated, a shame. Thank you for bringing him up, he really deserves it.
Circle Waltz blows me away...
Thnx again 4 checkin in
Honored a musician as urself... Thinks i get it!!
Blessings brutha
What was Don like???
1. Thelonious Monk: that album sounds excellent!
2. Benny Golson: I tend to ignore his albums, but this catches my attention
3. Bill Evans: I own too many but this one is excellent, one of my favorites is his live album at the Mann-Hole
4. Chet Baker: ufff I need this album in my life and with Pepper Adams sounds killer..definitely Jazz Noir
4. Blue Mitchell: I don't own many by him but that one has Nicas Dream if I'm not mistaken..need that one in my collection
5.Bobby Timmons: I only own his live album on Riverside..his albums are hard to find
6. Nat Adderley: very underrrated..just picked up one of his CTI albums
7. George Russell: always been curious of that album
Great feedback.. Interesting to see whst people have
Man, I absolutely love your content! I'm a jazzhead for quite some time and I feel like I'm always around the same artists and albums all the time. Your channel is a blessing! You have been helping me expand my findings and vinyl collection, thank you!
You keep talking about being able to show us dozens of Riverside/Prestige titles we probably never heard of and I'd love a series like that. You could makes videos per label like you've been doing but with less known selections and on top of that choosing a top 10+ with your favourites from that bunch.
Hope to see that one day, keep up the great work, my man!
Thnx for watching.
Its just a matter of time...
Those are episodes that no doubt will be coning soon!!
Thnx for watching..n for the feedback
@@TheJazzShepherd That's so great to hear! Can't wait!
Stay tuned as they say!!
@@TheJazzShepherd I will! Btw, Circle Waltz... oh man, what an album! I'm a huuuge Evans fan and it's like hearing one of his trios with different names and a much better sound than Van Gelder's piano. As soon as I heard those first piano notes I thought "This is definitely not a Van Gelder recording" and I was right. Ray Fowler did that one and the sound is so clear and realistic. Probably my favourite recommendation from the video.
Circle Waltz is one of my fav lps ever..
It is brilliant....
Van Gelder.does not do too much Riverside stuff... From what i have read some early Monk n Evans???
Early 200 series...
Magnificent selection. Stellar. I agreed on everything. Also, love Nat, Bobby... and Don.
(OK, now I need to find some financing).
I hear ya brutha... Jazz is not a cheap obsession
It is a pleasure watching your videos. I’m not a jazz enthusiast, yet. What would you suggest I listen too first to get my feet wet. Btw, our pbs is showing a documentary on Miles Davis on Tuesday at 9 I believe. Thank you.
Miles Kinda Blue!!
Its hard to beat the playing...the grooves,and the vibe!!!
GREAT STARTING POINT,,,YET ITS ALSO A PLACE YOU WILL NEVER TIRE OF!!
The Jazz Shepherd thank you.
Lee Morgan and Clifford Jordan with 'a waltz for Fran' from 'Take Twelve'
Morgan has sooo many great records tho..... that not even in his top 10 ???
I dont know?? I mean its a great record.... but..... ??
@@TheJazzShepherd Morgan rated the tune so much that he reprised it on two later blue notes under different titles but not once did they come close to enhancing the original.
Time restrictions on the riverside / jazzland recording maybe prevents it from being recognised as an all-time great tune but i personally think it's my favourite after 'Search for the New Land'
Dan Riverside is where it's at Bobby timmons writing ability outstanding. Bill Evans blew away when I was introduced by a stock broker in Chicago when I work at Sam Goody man I hustled to get his records . Nat Adderley is great. I would liv to find that Blue Mitchell he a killer player be was on a lot of Horace Silver records Dan luv your videos you tell the truth brother.
Thnx for that truth comment brutha...
Means a lot to me...
In fact i spend a lot of time looking for meaning..truth is hard to find.. Most truths are very relative...
Jazz has an honesty... That calms me... A man cant lie thru his 🎷
8. Wes & Milt: one of the few Wes albums I'm misssing
9. Don Friedman: good lord those 2 titles have been on my wishlist for a long time..expensive albums!
10. Cannonball: too many albums..need this one on lp..but have it on cassette
11. Johnny Griffin: killer player with many hidden gems like this one!
Great stuff... Tough to pick from 400...
Don friedmans dreams and explorations is also a killer album!!
@@alansenzaki4148 thanks for the recommendation!
The best record show on RUclips - awsome show Dan
Thnx man.. A very cool thing to say
@@TheJazzShepherd your give in your show such a lot of experience, Passion and information. And for a jazz rookie like me it's very important to get also an short audio track. It helps a lot.
I am just happy to have a place to share what i have learned...with people as cool as u!!!
Its a great experience
I love these vids man! Can we get one someday of all the awesome jersies you have?
I did one ib November about them...
Will do a better one eventually
@@TheJazzShepherd found it! I hadn't scrolled that far back. Will check it out!
That Benny Golson record is 🔥. Excellent video as usual going to have to add some of these records to my wantlist.
thnx brutha ! ! ! Def a great label!!!!
Hey man, I just picked up Nat Adderley’s “Work Song.” It’s a stunner, no? Why isn’t this part of the jazz cannon. So many great songs and performances. How can you lose with Wes Montgomery and Bobby Timmons!!
i WOULD SAY WORK SONG IS ABSOLUTELY PART OF THE CANON!!
True, but it’s so much more than that song.
I think the last Riverside I bought was The Hawk Flies High.
U gotta love Coleman Hawkins
White Jazz... Dave Brubeck?
