11:25 That's the opening left hand riff for Count Basie's "Jumpin' At The Woodside"! And that ostinato with the left hand octave and right hand note is a classic stride thing - Fats Waller uses it a ton, like in Handful of Keys
That was really insightful. I learned a lot from this video: The term stop-time, two feel with doubled notes, how each of them comminicate with each other, …
That was a great reaction video. I appreciate your genuine appreciation for the music, talent, and hard work that went in there. I love these guys-they both make me extremely aware of the gulf between us while also feeling inspired to practice and play because of the sheer joy involved.
I missed seeing this live by a couple of hours because I didn't double check the time. 🤦♂I really enjoyed watching it through with your commentary. It was a lot of fun.
Love this and the original version, in which Emmets stride solo was also mind blowing.. Kyle and Emmet have been playing together for many years and have amazing rhythmic telepathy at this point.. you seem surprised at the level of playing, but remember, these are a few of the best musicians on the planet
In the really crazy section at the climax of the solo, I think he may be intentionally sloppy - with intensity. Pedalled and full of crazy harmonic tensions coming through. Really something! Thanks for watching. Glad to have you as a subscriber.
Not a long drive from the land of Cleves to MN. If you can make it to St Paul for the Twin Cities Jazz Fest it is totally worth the trip. Always gems all around.
You should listen to the first time they played this one together, with Russel hall on upright, at emmet’s place on you tube and enjoy the first time magic came.
I have definitely heard it. At least 2 dozen times. It’s amazing. I thought the reaction would be more genuine watching a new performance. I prefer Patricks solo in the home recording, and Emmets in this live one. But that’s like comparing two Michelin star meals.
"I feel so inadequate, as a player. " Me: "Hold my ale..." A new word would be required to describe the feelings of inadequacy I have as a player. Fabulous stuff. Fabulous analysis, as always.
Very good version but for me nothing has come close to Patricks solo in the other video That is is just something so special to me and I rate it almost as good as Coreys Keyboard solo in Lingus. It is that good as whilst easier to play (I think?? 😅) its crafted so perfectly and sings
@@JoshWalshMusic maybe try look up from sakamichi no apollon scenes its an japan animation but picturing a journey of a classical pianist learning jazz piano, there are some good standards tune in there such as moanin or lullaby of a birdland
I normally agree with your videos but strongly disagree with this one. I know people going to tell me I am an idiot and don't know what I am talking about but seriously don't care. If you look at most of the Emmet Cohen videos, it's a high level of showboating. (By the way that wasn't boogie-woogie but a Count Basie riff!) Compare it with the greats in jazz history and you know what I mean. Look at the incredible Samara Joy. He played a duo live with her and he plays so much that the whole singing from Samara Joy is being ruined. Same with the tribute to Ella Fitzgerald song they did. Also... Kyle Poole might be one of the few drummers I intensely dislike. When he needs to play a walking swing groove in a form when a bass player starts a walking bass he plays half-time and vice versa. Just terrible! The only REALLY amazing musician in this lineup is the amazing Patrick Bartley!! In my opinion (which probably doesn't mean a lot to a lot of people but it's MY opinion), I am not interested in a "Hey everybody look at me how amazing I am" piano player. Emmet Cohen shouldn't be the reason why you want to stop piano playing. Oscar Peterson, Benny Green, Dick Hyman, Gene Harris, the one and ONLY Art Tatum, Nat King Cole (and yes he was one Oscar Petersons Jazz Heros), Herbie Hancock, Bill Evans, Peter Martin, Tommy Flanagan, Hank Jones, Bobby Timmons, Mulgrew Miller, Dan Nimmer, Monk, Cedar Walton, Geoff Keezer and many others should make you shake in your shoes and considering to stop hahaha. Great if you like Emmet Cohen and enjoy his playing but again in my opinion VERY overhyped (I spoke with a few of the great jazz musicians and they agree. In their circles they call this MacJazz style! referring to MacDonalds). Saying that... Emmet Cohen is an amazing marketing man with all his member subscriptions on his website and starting Emmet's Place during Covid! So... All Emmet Cohen fans let the rude comments and insults start! hahaha
I've played music for decades, but just can't get into Jazz past the old timey standards/early dance variants. This stuff is just pure, academic pretense and wankery. Little more than "shredding" with some chromatic notes thrown in for effect. Just try to sing, hum, whistle back a single interesting, or memorable melody from this entire song......Pro Tip: you can't. Don't even get me started on the "standards", "purists" and"rules" of a supposedly improvisatory art form. This kind of stuff is why Jazz is and has been dead, dead, dead for a long time now.
Hey Karl, are you talking about Emmets solo specifically? It’s definitely a technical feat more than melodic, so I see your point. But I find Patrick’s solo to have many great melodic moments. He’s one of the best modern melodic players, IMO. Thanks for the comment!
I was one of the camera operators for this show. What an absolute pleasure it was to watch these guys play.
Oh man, I’m jealous. Though, I would have been a terrible camera man lol. I would have been so distracted.
If you have his number, tell the sound guy to lay off the compression
@@tonywallens217 the compression is likely done by youtube. But I will let him know.
@@tonywallens217Expecting pristine audio from a video of a video on RUclips? 😅
This is one of my favorite recordings ever and as a sax player I am amazed by Patrick's range technique, tone, and really everything he does.

Thanks for sharing this recording! What a performance… 🤯
I’d love to see more of these. So cool.

Ah man, bummer! I saw Emmet live last year, what a treat.
Damn you need more subscribers. This was a great reaction video. One of the best on RUclips.
Thanks so much man. The subs will come, I’ve only been full time for a year. :-) tell your music friends! 🤣

Not surprised at their level of playing, just repeatedly astonished again!
@@JoshWalshMusic I totally agree..Emmet and Patrick are both astonishing musicians
You're right Josh, that stride is impressive!!!
In the really crazy section at the climax of the solo, I think he may be intentionally sloppy - with intensity. Pedalled and full of crazy harmonic tensions coming through. Really something!
Thanks for watching. Glad to have you as a subscriber.
Emmets playing is insane.
Indeed. Floors me every time.
thank You! thats a golden recommendation. i just started working with Your Videos especially Barry
Not a long drive from the land of Cleves to MN. If you can make it to St Paul for the Twin Cities Jazz Fest it is totally worth the trip. Always gems all around.
Check out the Live at Emmet's place version and watch the poor trumpet player's face when he realizes what he has to follow
Emmet beat the shit out of that piano! What a thrill! Lovin' it!
That very fast vibrato is out there strong.
11:53 ish he quotes himself from the intro of the other video
You should listen to the first time they played this one together, with Russel hall on upright, at emmet’s place on you tube and enjoy the first time magic came.
I have definitely heard it. At least 2 dozen times. It’s amazing. I thought the reaction would be more genuine watching a new performance.

That original version is unbeatable it seems
By the end of his solo he looks like he's about to explode
Yes, yes he does. The man is incredible.
It’s impossible what they showed us… i mean these guys play for hours in all different genres all from memory… 😅
What is "articulation"?
Everyone should know KYLE POOLE - absolutely extraordinary drummer: playful, inventive, solid, awesome
Thankfully I have learned much more of Kyle’s contributions since making this video. He’s wicked talented.
13:23 he just quotes the actual melody of the piece he is playing?
"I feel so inadequate, as a player. "
Me: "Hold my ale..."
A new word would be required to describe the feelings of inadequacy I have as a player.
Fabulous stuff. Fabulous analysis, as always.
Thanks Joel.
Pianists that wish they had a left hand like this

I like them too. Any requests?

Listening to this first part, I can't help but think of shreksophone. 😅
wait, you said comment with where to find the jacket. i did, and you removed the comment? unsubbed
I think RUclips atoumaticaly deletes comments with links for like scam stuff so it might of been that
Thanks Kenny. I definitely did not remove the link!

I appreciate the time you put to post something so thoughtful, even though I strongly disagree with you about Emmet. He’s incredible ✌🏻
@@JoshWalshMusic As I said in my message. If you like that kind of pianist that’s great. Just not my cup of tea! As long you enjoy it that’s counts!

Did he go to New school of Music. Seen him play with a few people I know to be alum.
So freakinʼ legit.
