Man you can definitely hear Stan Getz in your playing!! It's super inspiring to see you still digging this deep. Hope the tour is going well!
I remember transcribing the first chorus of Stan Getz on this tune, I found it was such a great way to break out your improv habits , if you don't know what to play on this tune well here you have 9 minutes and 21 seconds of such great melodic ideas , it's really the best way to learn how to improvise
Getz is always playing the melody…..he never just plays runs, scales or etudes to fill spaces. He is always reminding us of the melody
Thanks for this, Bob! It’s very inspiring for me to see a complete pro like you still going back and working on tunes, phrasing and memorizing favorite lines. Thank you, from a guitarist in Washington state!
This just makes my day. I could listen to you listening to solos all day every day. I've done my share of listening to Stan Getz but I feel it is about time revisit some things. Also, I only just now realised how much your incredible bebop playing with Yay reminds me of this. Bob Reynolds, I've said it before, I will say it again: you are just amazing! Thanks and all the best to you
Bob, as a 77-year-old tenor man I have for 62 years been fascinated with the beautiful, intellectual complications Stan Getz finds in his creations. And the tempos are challenging. Trend setters like Getz will always be important mentors to all generations of jazz lovers who are truly serious students of jazz improvisation. Getz will never be topped. He will be copied throughout the future by Tenor sax jazz wannabes. Perfection cannot be improved. I appreciate your serious reveal of Stan Getz for your fans. Thanks.
Well said
Your enthusiasm for the art is infectious. It reminds why I keep hacking my way through new tunes searching for grooves and licks and driving my family crazy. Thanks for sharing.
You SO !!!! get Getz!!! My dad played a lotta Getz at Home. he played Alto too. I witnessed my father practicing countless moments against the wall on super low volume. No BS, but my father had that sound down and melodic soloing without boring people with Chops. it was just that Time back then , Bob. I am delighted and thrilled on what Deep Level you rap bout Stan. If my dad would be still around to see your Video , he would have that beautiful Smirk ,giving you the full Approval. keep doing what you doing . Man !!!!
🙏
It put a big smile on my face seeing you transcribing this as I did some of that solo. Thank you for your inspiring videos!
One of my favorite album ever !
Thank you Bob for bringing it to light !
Nothing like watching a video of a musician who is passionate about a great musician playing great music. You've got it flowing through your veins, and it helps us schlubs understand what we need to do. Thanks, man
Bob it was great to see how Stan has touched your soul. Your facial expressions touched my soul deep down as I do the same thing. I'm sure my wife thinks I'm crazy as I listen with my headphones on, jamming to myself. I really enjoyed this.
Bob, what a great choice for transcription! I have most of Getz's recordings and have listened to this one many times without tumbling to the melodic, harmonic and rhythm effects that he used. Now I know I will be working on this transcription. Like you, it really speaks to me. Thanks!
Thanks for persevering through the challenges to bring us this great analysis!
Perhaps some of us who listen,REALLY listen, realize Bob's committment to jazz. I have been trying to play sax since 1947. I never realized the le vel of committment needed to reach what I reached as a carpenter. Now when I watch and listen to Reynolds makes me reach for more with my sax and I am 83. Wow!!
A brilliant solo indeed. Really musical. Thanks for sharing the insights; have fun on the tour, cheers from Brazil.
Thanks Bob for bringing this great Stan Getz tune and his brilliant improv to my ears. And thanks for your wonderful analysis, in spite of the difficult conditions. You really laid out the elements of what Stan was doing in a meaningful way. As always, great job. You're a wonderful teacher.
Bob, love the anecdote about simplifying the sheet music. Another reason to always learn the melodies from recordings!
Each time you upload a vlog I get a tremendous urge to practice!
It came out way better than I expected. You have a nice touch in this presentation. Good timing like Stan
Went to a pretty well known jazz school for undergrad and grad, been around the country to a lot of different schools as well…never once heard someone do a Getz transcription. For the life of me I don’t know why lol. Super underrated nowadays
cultureless barbarians
Another inspirational vid! Thank you Bob for all the inspirational and instructive vids over the years I've been watching.
Hi Bob! It's so much fun watching you dissect Stan Getz's phrasing on the saxophone. It's clear that he is a big influence on you and that you never get tired of listening to his playing. He was so smooth and lyrical...he didn't seem to waste any notes in his solos. When I listen to you perform with Snarky Puppy and your solo group, it's clear that you draw inspiration from Getz, Bird, Potter, and so many others.
Thanks for the great video, and keep on carrying the torch of the jazz greats! Hope to see you with Snarky Puppy in the future - they're my favorite band and I hope they come back to New York or Connecticut soon.
I've never fully understood the concept or should I say the method when It comes to improvisation but when you said play around a backbone it all fell into place , so thank you for taking the time to make these videos its a huge help for a beginner like me . Hope you make more like this one where you pick a tune and explain what is going on in the same detail
Marvellous, Bob. Thanks for your persistence in showing what a swing meister Stan was. Special place in my heart for him as the first record I fell in love with at the age of 2.5 was Desafinado, and it was the way he played the melody. My mum told me I threw a tantrum in my playpen because when she sang along she didn’t sing his exact phrasing! I’ve always loved Stan’s playing ever since, but I’d not heard him play this tune before. 60 songs written and recorded in one year? Wow!
You sound more like Getz than anyone I have ever heard! Lovely
I bought this album in the 60’s and still have it, one of my all-time fav Getz albums. Over the years I’ve laid this album on so many young rhythm section players, as a shining example of how a perfect rhythm section should play under a horn player. Correction Bob, it’s Lou Levy on piano, perfect comping, Leroy Vinnegar ( Mr Walk ) on bass and Mr time Stan Levey on drums. I’d kill for a rhythm section like this today. I wish young guys ( especially drummers ) would play like this. I'd add my fav Getz period the mid 50's the album has been reissued on CD with a bunch of alt takes, called West Coast Jazz, consummate straight ahead jazz from "the" period. Thx for sharing..
Looking forward to seeing and hearing you guys this upcoming Friday.
Sound was good.Enjoyed your commentary.Love Stan Getz's playing.Thanks
Beautiful video Bob. I really enjoyed your enthusiasm and insight.
What dedication! 🎉❤
I love when stan starts to dance when he’s soloing. If you watch him when he’s totally in the zone he starts damcing as he solos.
That was excellent. Thanks. Great playing by Getz
Great video! Going to check out that album, sounds amazing both solo and the rhythm section!
Ditto!
Worth to check that album out! :)
Terrific and inspiring video Bob...
The audio sounded great! Stan, one of my very favorites. Very possibly top 5.
So glad you love Getz. You've won me.
Thanks for making this video. I agree with everyone that your enthusiasm is enjoyable to see and share in.
well, thanks a lot for showing us this masterpiece! for shure I will search for this record and study this song. I love Getz for his word with Joao Gilberto but now I discovered a new musician that I didnt know. Thanks a lot! regards from Brazil
Thank you for sharing these truthful, beautiful and helpful insights - and the sound was for sure good enough for the purpose. I'll make this video arbitrary for my students ;-)
Ok Bob-Now I´m singing along!!! This is great because i feel i´m on the bus listening to this with you. Like when I was on the bus with Thad and Mel and we would share what we were listening to and share our impressions.
Thanks man!
Great to hear your thoughts and analysis of Stan Getz’s wonderful soloing. Good luck with the Snarky Tour.👍🇬🇧🎷🖖👍
Fantastic! Good stuff!!! Will spend some time with that tune. Thankyou!
Whats crazy is this recording has been something I’ve been listening to non stop for the last 2 weeks😳
Sounded great! Thank you for your insight.
Wow I've been here a long time. Your growth has been amazing
So cool! Stan is the man. Not sure what’s most enjoyable overall: Stan’s playing or your visible excitement while you are listening to him! One last great take away: restrooms have the best acoustic :-)
Thanks, Pascal :)
bathroom summit
Loved you guys in Dallas! All the new album!
Saw you guys at the Bowl last Friday (May 27). What a treat.
I didn't know you were opening for Steely Dan. You had already started when I was walking up and thought "man that sounds like Snarky Puppy". To hear 2 groups you love at the same time. Can't get much better.
I look forward to seeing you guys again.
Awesome, Bob, thanks, great inspiration. Wish I had more time to dedicate to my music.
Thanks keep them coming...
it is comforting to know that I am not the only sax offender around.
Geat stuff Bob . I do love your videos dont ever stop.
I was at that concert... Also , got to see Snarky Puppy in Mesa. Seeing you guys together was a real treat! Thanks for introducing me to the Genius of Stan Getz.
Thanks for this great analysis!❤
Thank you, Bob. Love your engaging comments and observations.I’ll spend sometime with this remarkable recording.
Thanks for the joyous escort into Stan's solo. It's Lou Levy on piano who's also known for backing the great Warne Marsh. Would love to hear you do a video on one of Warne's solos!
And those 60 songs became amazing timeless classics!
Really wonderful solo
Oh man, how cool everything is, pricelessly peaceful sky
..
Thanks for the breakdown, Bob! Its always nice to see your excitement over a nice solo :D i know i would be the same lol
Pumped to see you guys in ATL
Stan the man! Such a great musician together with Mulligan, Baker, Bird and Fix.
Oh man - looking for a place to shed takes me back to my road daze! Woodshedding in the band bus at night in the winter in Pennsylvania is not much better than in Phoenix in the spring.
That’s some brilliant Getz that I had not heard! I do recognize the groove, though. I think it has a lot to do with Mr Vinnegar’s bass. I did a weekly club gig with him for a year and it was like ridin’ in a Cadillac!
Nice sound man. Imagine this. So I'm at San Jose State as a piano student in the 80's rooming with the great Larry Grenadier bassist, and Stan Get's calls our message machine. I hear Stan's voice leaving a message for Larry. "Hey man, this is Stan, calling to see if you can cover the Garden City gig next weekend...". I told Larry, hey man, Stan called... Larry was about 20. I was 21 at the time. My piano teacher and friend at the time Dick Hindman payed with Stan too. Those were great times.
The man makes a speaking melody and incorporates the blues elements... he plays with the drums :)
you've got stan's "early" tone nailed!
Loved this video, loved the analysis, loved your passion 🤙🎷🎷
Thanks, John
Enjoyed the show in Phoenix last night!
I love this one! Great points - no one could keep the melodic feel alive in their solos like Getz, Desmond or Miles. Also gives hope to the non-shredders like myself 😉
I love Bob's tone.
Bob, good video. Love Getz, didn't use to but a friend of mine got me very interested in his final days and charge to Sax Heaven/RIP. I love "Serenity", what a recording. I met Kenny Barron several times up in Vail and his "Voyage" on this CD is one of the most exciting Jazz Tunes ever written. A Classic! Wow, how could SG blow with so much content for so long? Bob in Denver, Co
I`ve been driving around in my `55 buick with there will never be another like you from Stan for days now.. and How about you.. for me listening to him is like Ronny Jordan on guitar.. its just like he is talking to you only.. melodicly.. full of soul and substance.. fantastic! Next up.. trying to play like the man.. note! Not there yet!!
There is (used to be) a grant for rising jazz groups called the Clifford Brown/Stan Getz award. I often wondered why these two names were together. I now know. They both have the ESSENCE.
I love how he quotes the tune Exactly Like You to start off his first chorus!
Getz will always be my favorite tenor player. His melodic ideas are second to none. For anyone wanting to know how great he was check out the album Focus.
Abolutely true!
I‘m with you!
Yes, Stan swings so hard. There’s a version of Cherokee that he plays where he put some really cool subs at the beginning of the form. I wish I could remember the album.
Probably from the album he made with Lionel Hampton in 1954.
I misspoke in the video: it’s Stan Levey on drums, Lou Levy on piano, Leroy Vinnegar on bass.
Stan Levy was a swinging BEAST of a player...IMHO he was very similar to Shelly Manne in his almost internalised and very subtle groove. I love them both...
On these records you hear Lou doing a lot of those same triads, half step below the tonic etc, cool to hear them feeding off of each other.
Hiya Bob! I've been playing on the banks of the Tiber river here in Rome, coincidentally transcribing Stan getz's take on lullaby of Birdland. Kinda cool to think you were out in the heat trying to play getz quietly too :D
Once played with a fellow saxophonist who said he knew a sax player who studied with the same teacher as Stan Getz. He said he used to dread following SG into the lesson room after hearing him go through some amazing acrobatics with his teacher. SG can be intimidating. Few cliches, if any, and, like all the masters, a seemingly bottomless source of melodic invention.
I remember seeing these guys at the Keystone Korner in SF around 80-81. Place was packed to the walls. Lots of ball-breaking on the bandstand. The audience swooned. A lifetime highlight. You're right - it's the fingers. Check out Getz with the great Albert Dailey - a match made in heaven. Thanks for sharing Bob!
#Jealous. Thanks, Andy
I think I was there around then; but I was busy NOT seeing Moby Grape!
@@scrunchymacscruff1244 Wow Scrunch! My seminal moment as a guitar picker was seeing Jerry Miller in the cafeteria at Cabrillo College and realizing that, yeah, rhythm matters. To compound things, Skip Spence might have been the drummer who played with Frank Leal (sp?) at the old Hotel In Aptos, where I was many a drunken night. To my benefit. Correct me if I'm wrong.
@@andyquinn1125 'Skip' skipped around a lot. He helped Jeff A-plane take off as their drummer; also was with early Quicksilver; and of course, The GRAPE. I almost saw them at the Hollywood Palladium in 1970, but that afternoon got arrested heavily intoxicated by barb's. Finally, while going to SF State in 1977, I saw they were back playing with an announced appearance at California Hall (the location where Dirty Harry goes up on a fire-truck cage and negotiates with the nut who is about to jump..PANNONIA fencing club was established by Hungarians in the attic space, there, after the Russians came in in '56). You bet i was there. I put on my hippie best and paid 4 or 6 bucks and saw the legendary band and REALIZED you can only get 10% listening to the record. Right as they were about to begin I picked Skip out of the line-up and called out to him..he slowly cast a mellow gaze in my direction, and I gave him the PEACE sign. Very slowly he cracked a grin, and the show started. One of the best performances I ever heard. Don't know about Aptos, but..sounds apt. God bless PS: Ach! I just remembered, since the point of contact is tenor sax, I saw them the following November, or maybe January in 1978 at the CATALYST club in S. Cruz and I can't recall if they Had Cornelius Bumpus on board for the earlier gigs, but at Santa Cruz they sure did; and he played Honky-tonk on tenor sax like nobody's business, with Jerry Miller rocking it on his Gibson hollow-body. Hey Grandma was the limit, they extended the jam break another twelve minutes and there is so much more I could say. 'Corny' also doubled on the B-3. The days, the days..Oh, and if you look at my channel you can hear me try to be meaningful on steel guitar playing to "Now I Know High" from TRULY FINE CITIZEN. The documentary's called GLIDER PILOTS OF WWIII ~C.
They had dropped out of the scene again.
Love this shit 💃🏼🕺🏼💃🏼🕺🏼💃🏼🕺🏼 and this was November 57??? I was two years old, my parents would be listening to tango on the radio in Buenos Aires.
I like the "Exactly Like You" quote at 6:48 Very subtle.
I saw steely dan in portland recently i believe the first stop of the tour, such a great concert
yup that was night 1
Kudos to Bobby for the great respect you give to music and musicians. After all, it's all you live, right?
This is so funny. In my district, the all-district jazz audition tune was “there will never be another you.” In my state (Florida) the all-state audition improvisation section includes this tune. Idk why but this tune is popping up everywhere.
Chet Baker also plays a sweet version of this song with some sweet 2 5 1’s. That being said, Stan was the man and he plays a very beautiful version of Like Someone In Love in this album. Some tricky lines and ideas worth analyzing 🤘🏼
Love it!!!!
Hi Peter!
Love the video - made my day! I think you can't overstate the importance of singing/vocalising of a solo (or bits of it) you listen to in order to start understanding what's going on there; especially as a precursor to transcription - I couldn't imagine transcribing without singing it first. This point really needs to be made clear especially to players who just starting to acquire jazz language and struggle to transcribe complex melodic/harmonic lines and often give up thinking it's too hard. Btw when are you coming to NZ?
Yup. My motto w students is sing it before you attempt to play it. You are the instrument and the horn merely an extension.
I kinda want to move to NZ.
@@bobreynolds It always baffles me how few musicians teach it that way... I know (you wanna move) - we had that conversation already, I hope you got the email I sent you about this a while ago. Let me know when it happens, and if I can be of any help :) M.
He's playing enclosures.The Apasianado album is full of these type of phrases,sounds like it was something he was working on at the time.
Bob, I would add the solo on Gladys from Getz /Hampton. Incredible
I love Stan Getz sound. And I’m an Alto
Player!!! Trying to sound just like him
Paul Desmond!
One of my favorite Getz records is with bill evans and Elvin Jones.
Yeah man, thanks
you have a little rick beato kiddish excitement going on. definitely given me things to think about as far as stans playing.
I was pretty sad that you didn't play the Little Rock show with Snarky Puppy. It was still incredible, but it would've been nice to see you live! I should've gone to the Walmart AMP show in Rogers!
“There will never be another garbage can in your videos” …😂 but seriously, really nice playing Bob. Btw, Stan Getz was the first pro I saw live in a club in Toronto when I was 16. It inspired me to play sax…Being 10 feet away from him as he played was amazing!!!
thank you. exclelent ,farewell~
One of the versions of my funny Valentine with JJ Johnson is my Stan Getz favorite
@ 12:48 It sounded like Getz took a little fragment of Ellington's Rockin' In Rhythm there and sculptured it into his own thing.
