I met these gentlemen in the early 70's when my partners (at the time) brought Johnny Mathis to Australia). I took Johnny to see the Adelaide Festive Theatre and they were walking out when we arrived. Johnny knew them all and had a brief conversation with them. Charlie wasn't too engaging but Herb and Barney were. Johnny asked Herb if he was enjoying the new found fame touring as the "Three Guitarist's". "Shit yes" was enthusiastic the reply. Lovely gentlemen.
I'm very glad I saw these guys several times in the S.F Bay Area. Think it was at The Great American Music Hall when they played The Flintstones Theme at a blazing speed. They went around and around trading riffs one amazing one after another. The place went nuts!
These guys! Whew! At the top of their game; new respect for all three. Wow. And Barney Kessel starting around 6:30, whew!, so many "I wish I'd said that" moments, or rather, "I wish I could say that!"
Salve dove li ha ascoltati?Al festival di Pescara Jazz?Lo chiedo perche' sono della citta' ma disgraziatamente sono nato con una cinquantina d'anni di ritardo.
@@maxswing78 Lì ho ascoltati al cinema teatro Circus, nell'ambito della stagione invernale dei concerti. Seguo il jazz da fine anni '70 e appena mi capita vado a concerti; possiedo numerosi dischi, non solo di jazz 🍀🎶😄
Charlie Byrd has a big red dot on the side of his fingerboard around the seventh fret. I have trouble visualizing positions on my classical so I gotta try that. Also, looks like he's going through a Peavey amp. Years ago I did that with a cheap nylon string guitar with a preamp and it sounded good.
They used only the speakers in whatever amps the venue could provide. The amps used by everyone were Walter Woods, which were compact and could be easily packed for overseas gigs.
Charlie Byrd is playing the Acoustic. He toured in Australia somewhere between 89-92 and performed with his tour band in the Footbridge theatre at Sydney University to a lunchtime crowd of about 10 people but played like he was in a mega stadium. This concert was my conversion to Jazz, it was sublime. Such a privilege to hear him and his band play.
@@melquaidesskunduglio3830 Not like those guys. There is a difference between playing "jazz chords" chords and something other than a minor pentatonic scale and what these guys are doing. If you pulled anyone of these guys out and put SRV in their chair and the playing began SVR would be lost after the 1st measure. Could he learn this style...probably...but playing a Gflat 7 flat 5 add 11 chord does not make you a jazz player. That's like listening to Glen Campbell playing Malaguena (which he did wonderfully) and concluding that he could play like Segovia.
Herb Ellis is 101 years old today. Thank you Grand Maestro!

Like putting on a heated robe in winter…..pure comfort!
Outstanding music what kind of guitarist and the combination WOW❤👏🌹
I love
Wow. Wish I could hear them live today.
They’re so masterful, just incredible! And they played so well together.
WOW Charlie Bird....
"Unreal!"...Thanks for sharing!!!!
The trio all soling at once on Django Reinhardt’s “Nuages” at the beginning is amazing. So perfectly meshed.
AGREED! Terrific to listen to this early Thurs @ 6:45 am!!!
Superb. Brilliant. Inspiring.
Descobri o jazz assistindo Snoopy kkkkk
Bons tempos.
Oh just brilliant.
Class ! Just class !
Love it. Love also how Barney and Herb have no problem providing space for Charlie.
Love it!

I remember seeing Herb and Joe Pass together at Dante’s in North Hollywood. You could sit next to them at the bar and shoot the breeze between sets .
WOW..!!!
Nuages
Amazing phrasing... 🤯
These guys! Whew! At the top of their game; new respect for all three. Wow. And Barney Kessel starting around 6:30, whew!, so many "I wish I'd said that" moments, or rather, "I wish I could say that!"
That's the MUSIC!!!
Just...wow.
Fantastic playing, these guys were the bomb.
Just the great personalities bringing the popularity of the guitar up and up notches.
Tre autentici signori della chitarra, ascoltati in Italia, a Pescara, ad inizio anni '80. Grazie per il video 🎶🎸🎸🎸😃

Amazing stuff!
Had to give some love to the bass player, in the pocket.
I bet he was sweating !
@@PecanRanch Nah, dudes a pro he and that drummer are tight as a frogs ass.
@Cy Brunel You beat me to it. He also has a very nice sound for electric bass in this context.
Charlie’s brother, Joe Byrd.
@@syn707 Thanks. He's perfect for that band.
Awesome trio!All ledgends.
Brillant! Quel bonheur!🎸🎸🎸
si!
Thank you
❤️
I heard it too Charlie... thanx for kicking that string a cent or two... so ever slightly off... but just enough.
The original G3
Love it.
Belo demais!!! Minas Gerais, BH

The essence of cool.

Altro pianeta....
8:24 😍🎉

Wow...Charlie Byrd plays 「Goin" Out Of My Head」（2nd song）Octave Play! Like Wes Montgomery♪
I GRANDI !!!!!!!!!!
Who's the commander behind the kit? Wonderful temperament
Yep. Unflagging swing and time, while staying out of the way of the guitars and not attracting attention to himself. Superb!
That’s called class! He is Chuck Redd.

What are those cigarette-shaped objects around the headstock of Herb Ellis' guitar? 3:02
I believe it was a string damping system. He may have ‘devised’ it but I am not certain.
Buona sera, per piacere potete dirmi il titolo dl secondo brano che il trio ha eseguito, che interpreta anche Frank Sinatra? grazie, min.1,58,
Mi rispondo da solo! Goin' out my head!
Can we ask for more? I don´t think so.
What's the name of the tune that starts around 1:54?
Goin out of my head Wes Montgomery
Does anyone know the name of the tune that starts at 3:10?
Flying Home. I don't know who wrote it but I've heard Charlie Christian play it.
@@johnmurray7682 Thanks man!
Well. Who is who . Thanks

And Barney Kessel is the guy on the right. So Herb Ellis is in the middle.
what song is this? 3:08

I hate to say it but I do not think SRV could play like this. He would be lost sitting in on this stuff
He definitely would be lost in the first two bars, if, he started at all.
SRV was a different sort of genius....
You need to listen to "stang's swang" if you think SRV can't play jazz

@@johnpower2018 well sure this type of guitar playing is a specialty genre
Use of fast, repeated down strokes by Herb and Barney impressive.
This gives hope to my painfully slow right hand (I'm slightly ambidextrous, mostly left-handed, who plays guitar right-handed).
Жириновский? Нет.. ошибся.
I dig that funky sound Barney gets from that Charlie Christian pickup!
