Same... And I was a HUGE jazz nerd in high school around 2004-2008. Not sure how I missed this guy. I guess RUclips and whatnot wasn't a thing back then. What a genius, though.
This is where Charlie Hunter stretches out that amazing jazz guitar bass that no one can touch. He found every perfect groove with these fellow jazz masters...
It's pretty amazing how he plays bass and melody at the same time, but when he started sounding like a fucking hammond organ with that leslie effect it blew my mind
I've watched every Charlie Hunter video on RUclips. Obsessively. But I think this may be my favorite. The brass is such a good compliment, but Gregoire Maret pushes it over the top. Thanks to the wonderful lineup of musicians and to Spanish Castle Music for posting!
Isn't this the one o the best performances ever?? I bought this DVD in 2003 and then it was never on RUclips... I don't know why. I had to post it for anyone that had never seen it. Cheers!!
@@spanishcastlemusicmagic Same here. I was surprised that I couldn't find it on RUclips, I mean for years... Fast forward --> I just popped in my DVD today and out of curiosity decided to take a look to see if it was posted and found this. A hearty thanks!!! Now I can send my musician friends a link.
@@spanishcastlemusicmagic Thank you so much for that!! greetings from México. My brother is a drummer in Playa del Carmen and one of his best friends Lary is a great mexican guitar player who plays with Natalia Lafourcade (not that good of a singer). Lary is friend of Charlie Hunter and he has a photo with him in wich my brother is on the back looking at the camera, smiling like a dork on the back!! LMAO. My brother is a great drummer as well. ruclips.net/video/JODaYjDyjyQ/видео.html Here is Lary the guitar player who used to play with my brother. Great musicians the three of them.
Edit out every single one of those stupid song introduction animations with that abominable, goddamned rewind, spaceship sound effect and this would perfect. Did anyone in production actually listen to this through a good system at a medium to high volume? All of those idiotic and jarring interruptions are horrible.
This instrument is tuned E A D A D G B E. Shortly after this record he lost the high E and tuned up half a step, and then later G C F C F Bb D and now he's lost the high D
Of all the Charlie Hunters out there, he is the most of them
how the heck have I only just found out about this guy til today? He's one of the most incredible musicians ive ever heard
The industry is weird towards jazz musicians. He was on D'Angelo's Spanish Joint. IIRC nobody's ever paid him for that one, either.

The more I see Charlie Hunter play, the more inspired I become.
just with the first notes
he inspires me to practice
He inspired me to stop trying
Ive never heard ANYONE capable of solo guitaring their way through Stevie Wonder's Too High! Incredible!

I feel like I just watched one of the best concerts I've ever seen...
Incredible. What a killing gig. ❤
The more time you played it just got better and better and better.................

As always, Charlie Hunter sounds absolutely fucking amazing!
Fuck! Is all I can say! Unreal!

I mean WOW!!
Love!

He's a blast see live ...whether he's solo, with a singer, with a band. And he plays PIECES; never noodles aimlessly like Frisell.
Reminds me of early Leo Kottke.
trombone man is very ill 😢
00:18:58 - Too High (Solo) - ok, this is just ridiculous...talk about playing the impossible.

Lol, I know. Too much work to edit them out, too late now. Hit the right arrow on your keyboard to fast forward 5 seconds, my man.
It's on Apple Music and that pays better than RUclips.
Great individual finger dexterity..left hand..neato
So..a 5 string geetar on top...and 3 bass strings..made of?...neato
A bass line on the bottom combined with a geetar tune...neato
