Just Amazing Blues. I love minor toned Blues, this and Dizzy Gillespie's Birks Work are some of my favorite blues.
Wondering who are the 7 people who dislike this video... 🙄
This sounds like Jazz to me. Why is this classified as blues rather than jazz?
Yep, if you focus on the chord changes, you can hear that is a blues pattern. The chords used here are a little bit different than blues rock but the time on each degrees is the same. So, yes you can use any kind of chord (with few exeptions) to make a blues, you just have to respect a blues progression and the degrees of. This sounds jazz because of the chords inside, which are substitutions of basics blues chords and the "jazz rythm" Hope it help you (and sorry for my bad english)
@@BrasdePitt The feel is based off the Blues and not European musics!
Some jazz tunes are written in blues time and have the word Blues in the title. For instance,
Basically Blues, New Blues, Bondi
Blues, Steve's Blues, etc.
So yeah, who to say that they're
not jazz charts?
Woody Shaw is definitely a jazz artist. I know I personally like to view this song as a jazz chart with a blues feel. Just my personal opinion on these kind of charts.
It's a blues form played in the jazz style. There are tons of jazz blueses: Freddie Freeloader, All Blues, Mr PC, Blues in the Closet, to name a few. Back in the '40s and early '50s, the genres weren't so distinct.
Record company couldn't afford a piano tuner for this record? Well, it's OK, great playing more than compensates
Superb!!!
Good!
Thanks.
Fantastic chart!
Beautiful to listen to!
It is a bluesy tune however it is not the same as a blues rock tune.
But it is a 12 bar minor blues, without somewhat modified chord changes. Not that unusual in jazz.
@@robbyr9286 If you read the other comment I posted on this site you'll see that I classify these type of charts as jazz charts with a blues feel rather than just plain solid blues songs. Songs such as these often are jazz oriented with blues themes and contain the word Blues in their titles.
Songs such as these include:
Basically Blues, Bondi Blues,
Steve's Blues, Silver threads among the Blues, Unidentified Blues, etc. etc.
Obviously there is a difference is this type of song and a really Bluesy song by an artist like BB King, Robben Ford or Eric Clapton.
@@dylangatenby9928 Your distinctions make a lot of sense...
I'm expanding on them by saying that a song having jazz chords combined with a blues feel is not enough to make it what is historically called a 'blues' in the jazz canon.
BrasdePitt's comment from 4 years ago summarizes the way I understand what calling a tune a 'blues' means in jazz parlance.
A 'blues' in a jazz context usually refers to a 12 bar tune w/ chords following a pattern that is similar to, but more complex than the patterns of a typicaly older 'Blues' blues or rock blues.
@@robbyr9286 I see your point. A blues in jazz refers to a song written in blues time but still is considered a jazz song whereas
a true really bluesy song such as something BB King would play is what you'd consider true Blues music. Most real blues songs that I'm familiar with don't sound anywhere like the jazz songs written in blues time. Understand what I mean by this Robby?
They are two distinctive song forms. You mentioned that the jazz songs with blues feel have a repeated theme. I notice that as well.
@@robbyr9286 However almost all songs no matter the genre have repeated choruses or main guitar riffs. May I ask, are you a drummer or musician? I'm a drummer.
Who's on Bass?
stafford james
Stafford James on bass.
Sembra di acoltare il festival di San Remo......!!!
Como esta? Woody Shaw y Blues for Wood es muy bueno y magnifico!
