I love the jazz music, but I also think this is overrated... Ok, his technic is amazing, obviously, but he is a showman. I don't want to compare, but... Jim Hall or George Benson don't need so many notes to do something way much deeper. Just an opinion, to support my own dislike.
Dislike bots, every video has a dislike. Anyone who dislikes this for Jordan must also hate Moffett and Campbell as well. So either a bot or a hateful idiot.
my own view, first thing that came into my head, was that there were a few understandably jealous guitarists out there. If I were a guitarist I'd probably hate him as well as love him
Most people struggle to be a really great rythym player. Some spend decades learning how to appropriately solo over the rythyms they're given. Stanley decided to be both at once. This man puts forth some absolute virtuoso playing and feels every inch of it. The dislikes are haters and anyone this good should have droves. Impressive as hell.
😮 Awww...... I didn't know! R.I.P young man and great bass player! He was very talented and I loved his style of play and improv. His memories will live forever in me.
First time I heard this (which was also the first time I heard of Stanley Jordan), he dislodged all my favourite guitarists; and all my other favourite versions of this tune took a caning as well. I was high on this track for weeks, and every time I hear it now it does the same. The trio is awesome, the bass player is a demon.
i know dat dude. i know jordan. As amazing as Jordan is .. Moffett must not be be forgotten. That was my meaning of my comment. Didnt mean to confuse you. Peace.
I've been listening to dozens of versions of this song and this is still my favorite performance of it ever. Maybe it's because I'm a bassist, but this is just amazing.
What a beauty and skill of playing with 2 guitars at the same time and keeping everything nice and coherent. It is great enjoyment to listen Stanley and his way of improvising. I could still remember when he became prominent as a guitarist it was such a refreshment to listen somebody who is playing completely different in terms of style and technique.
Mr. Jordan: I have never seen anything like this in my 60 year life. You are something that words just can not describe. I ran into you by accident and I had never heard of you until I looked at a video with Chet Atkins and some others (Leo Kotke etc.) You gave me a case of goose bumps that crippled me. I still can not believe that what you are doing can be done by a human being. I salute you. You are infinitely better than Led Zep. Just AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stan.....
What I like more of his live performances is that it transpires how much he truly loves playing music. That very fact is what opened my mind to look for more jazz music, despite that genre not being very "accesible" to the layman.
Saw him doing a solo show in DC he started playing with 2 guitars then he left the strung up one and went to the grand piano and started playing guitar on one hand and piano on the other. He would switch his right and left hands with the 2 instruments. Folks Stanley Jordan is not from this planet.
There's got to be a better tape of this somewhere, without all the snags. A spectacular, unworldly, masterful performance like this deserves a flawless recording.
All the snags? I'm think what you're referring to is the reality of playing live music at a professional level. You're going to hear minuscule deviations from the perfect notes.
This is borderline insane. Insanely good. At first I thought there was something wrong with the clip speed, then when I realized that it was legit and I got a little depressed. Some are truly blessed, Jesus.
Saw he in Seattle years ago. He was great. Now he is playing and I have to decide if I should buy a plane ticket to see him. Plus all the great jazz in New York
OMG! This is unreal. Wonderful performances all around, but Stanley is showing me chops I didn't think he had. I saw him live in Buffalo in the mid-80s when he burst on the music scene, but wasn't a Jazz giant yet. I think every guitarist in the city was there to watch him play what we'd only heard on his recordings, and I suspect some thought he couldn't really do that live. But they were wrong. He wasn't as well seasoned a player as in this video from 1990. And ONLY played ONE guitar. Seeing him play two guitars at once puts him a class of his own... not that he wasn't already, but in a new way. His straight-ahead soloing here answers all the critics. This cat is more than a one-trick pony... He's a stallion par excellence! And he's not doing this as a novelty to impress the audience. He can control of the harmony and rhythm behind his solo playing all by himself. The rest of he band is along for the ride. Moffett and Campbell are super as well of course. He's not playing a simple 3-chord folk song on the rhythm guitar folks...like "If I Had a Hammer"... more like "I've Got a Hammer-On!" He's doing some crazy complex things on both axes at the same time. This is insane! Insanely amazing! He should be checked for a dual personality disorder... But don't "fix" him Doc! So, there are double neck guitars, but the guitarists only play one at a time. Stanley uses two necks at the same time! Can he do this with a double neck guitar - or are the ergonomics making it impossible. His method allows for two different tone settings on each guitar, and two amps as well. I've always thought of his technique as "Hi-Gain, Light touch", but he even mixes up some heavy hammer-ons to spice things up. Who thinks up this sort of technique? Stanley Jordon... That's who!!! And the audience LOVED HIM!
Imagine you are in a music class in the late 80s or early 90s and your teacher asks you to see somebody live for an assignment, and it could be anybody. And you find that Stanley Jordan is playing in a little dinner club in Hollywood and you recognize the name but you like "It cant be really this guy, he's way too good to be at a small club" and turns out I was right up front and enjoyed a great solo show.
the dislikes are from guitarists that decided to quit playing after seeing this video, because they realized they were never ever going to reach this level.
Beau trio avec une ou plusieurs guitares mais surtout avec un super musicien Stanley du groove du groove et que du swing à diffuser pour nos enfants musiciens
the version of autumn leaves that made me start the double bass learning, that makes me want to start the drums, and that makes me think about stopping the guitar :p
13 rappers stumbled here looking for instrumental beats to rip while 3 metal heads tried to remake this into hardcore rock tune and failed and the last guys thumb slipped off the LT and pressed the RT by mistake equaling the 17 dislikes explained.;D
I love the intro on this with the tempo and the hits it’s how I usually hear it. Compared it to the Eric Clapton or Nat King Cole versions, it is absolutely flying. I understand people might dislike it because it changes the feel of an otherwise melancholy song, but musically it’s amazing even when you take out the fact that he is playing it on two guitars lol.
Marco Zoncu Because he steps outside the conventions of guitar that have been established by millions doing almost exactly what the last guy did? Because he has honed in his coordination and ability to focus on multiple tasks proficiently through probably years of practice? It's definitely showy but it's also very human imo
Both guys truly love playing live, it would be a context of happy faces lol! Imagine Pat, Stanley, Richard Bona and Antonio Sanchez playing together, godamn!
Nobody's talking about that drummer. He is exactly on point. Perfect jazz grooving.
Dude, right? Them trips are perfectly executed.
My thought about the dislikes are that if you have the knowledge of music to find Stanley Jordan how do you dislike this??
No dry ice, no twerking choreography, no Drake cameo or Weeknd walk-on duet.
I love the jazz music, but I also think this is overrated... Ok, his technic is amazing, obviously, but he is a showman. I don't want to compare, but... Jim Hall or George Benson don't need so many notes to do something way much deeper.

haha Jim, it's so true...

Impressive as hell.
RIP Charnett Mofett, a relatively unsung bass genius gone too soon.
😮 Awww...... I didn't know! R.I.P young man and great bass player! He was very talented and I loved his style of play and improv. His memories will live forever in me.
That dude was bad as hell, upright and electric.... Totally unknown and extremely talented.
Probably my all time favourite RUclips video. When I was 16-18 I used to play this all the time. I'm 29 now and I still love it to death.
Almost same chronology and age, this solo is marvelous, it reminds me of a Pat Martino song
First time I heard this (which was also the first time I heard of Stanley Jordan), he dislodged all my favourite guitarists; and all my other favourite versions of this tune took a caning as well. I was high on this track for weeks, and every time I hear it now it does the same. The trio is awesome, the bass player is a demon.
If it was anyone else on guitar the bass player would be the star and everything the comment section was talking about.
He's just as skilled on the piano if you can believe that!!
Charnett Moffett virtuoso madman... pouring your heart into that bass guitar... ARE YOU KIDDING ME.. drove the whole song... Brilliant...
Bass guitar?
Vertical and huge.
huh?
it ain't a bass guitar dude.
i know dat dude. i know jordan. As amazing as Jordan is .. Moffett must not be be forgotten. That was my meaning of my comment. Didnt mean to confuse you. Peace.
Moffet same league as Stanley and Jaco .. i loved the way he drove that song...
When you watch the bass player it looks like the video is in fast foward
Yea the bassist is absolutely amazing
that would be charnett moffett. god sent.
RIP Charnett Moffett 🙏🙏
no words needed.
I've been listening to Stanley for years. I'm a guitarist, but his rendition of Over The Rainbow makes me cry every time I hear it. 😪🙏
This is magic, no matter if there are 36 who don't understand
Technically stunning, beautifully melodic. Got to love Jordan’s phrasing!
Best guitarist ever
I think that bass melted after Charnett Moffett got done!!
That guy is tearing it up on bass! 😊
I've been listening to dozens of versions of this song and this is still my favorite performance of it ever. Maybe it's because I'm a bassist, but this is just amazing.
So how is it that the world didn't explode and God Herself came weeping down from the Heavens to say "The mission is done" when he played this?
When THEY played this. The trio is astounding.
Truly one of the greatest guitar players ever
What a beauty and skill of playing with 2 guitars at the same time and keeping everything nice and coherent. It is great enjoyment to listen Stanley and his way of improvising.
I could still remember when he became prominent as a guitarist it was such a refreshment to listen somebody who is playing completely different in terms of style and technique.
ABSOTIVELY POSOLUTELY GENIUS! THIS TRIO IS INCREDIBLE!!!

literally everyone is 🔥

Yeah he is amazing AND yeah no denying the bass player...he rocks and the drummer..so good.
Went one of these show on this tour in NJ.. fantastic..the band is on point all top of their gane. Stanley well he's spiritual healing on guitar
Charnett Moffet, he's amazing!
amazing.... everyone on stage
There's got to be a better tape of this somewhere, without all the snags. A spectacular, unworldly, masterful performance like this deserves a flawless recording.
I love the snags!
All the snags? I'm think what you're referring to is the reality of playing live music at a professional level. You're going to hear minuscule deviations from the perfect notes.
Literally zero people play flawlessly. What youre asking for is a doctored up studio edit. Fair enough, but just say that instead
@@Guitarchitect85 the snags in the tape playback mate not the fucking playing
@@Epic501
Thank you, Epic.
This is borderline insane. Insanely good. At first I thought there was something wrong with the clip speed, then when I realized that it was legit and I got a little depressed. Some are truly blessed, Jesus.
very very well all................................................
Everyone on that stage kicks complete ass
Saw he in Seattle years ago. He was great. Now he is playing and I have to decide if I should buy a plane ticket to see him. Plus all the great jazz in New York
Particularmente Stanley Jordan es uno de los mas virtuosos guitarristas de Jazz que conozco a lo largo de mis 59 años
Saw Mr Jordan play at a free concert at the waterfront in Camden New Jersey years ago.
WHAT A SHOW, MAN HE WAS AMAZING!!!!.
Monster!!!!
OMG Charnett Moffett, seriouuuusly ! such an amazing player !
yes. named by his Father after himself (Charnette?) and Ornette (Coleman) with whom he played
Fabulous musicians !!!

Just incredible, speechless♥️♥️♥️
Thanks for all the views.
holy shit
DangerousPOSSE Exactly!
I have one of Jordan's first albums on vinyl that has this song. LOVE it!
C un génie, il est très fort. Il arrive a faire une musique incroyable en plus avec deux guitares.
Effing nutz!!! They are soaring
Legend's

this is not just talent - this is a miracle lol
hahaha...
I show this video to anyone who tells me I'm amazing at guitar. They need to understand what "amazing at guitar" actually means.
Indeed
This man is amazing.
the dislikes are from guitarists that decided to quit playing after seeing this video, because they realized they were never ever going to reach this level.
La verdad es que este hombre es increible.
this guy's a beast
Beau trio avec une ou plusieurs guitares
mais surtout avec un super musicien Stanley
du groove du groove et que du swing

Wow
These guys are superhuman
the version of autumn leaves that made me start the double bass learning, that makes me want to start the drums, and that makes me think about stopping the guitar :p

To think I was a toddler somewhere when this absolute shred-fest was going on!

1 of the favorite performance of Autumn Leaves from Stanley Jordan bass is going wild I love it ;)
Gossshhh!!!What a vibe!!!
I love the intro on this with the tempo and the hits it’s how I usually hear it. Compared it to the Eric Clapton or Nat King Cole versions, it is absolutely flying. I understand people might dislike it because it changes the feel of an otherwise melancholy song, but musically it’s amazing even when you take out the fact that he is playing it on two guitars lol.
Es primera ves que lo escucho

Amazin jam
jodi183 : Tommy Campbell is the drummer
I ilsten this track many times a week (i'm newbie at the double bass, and love watching the black belt...)
Enegetic aint it . Blimey!
Not human at all
Marco Zoncu Because he steps outside the conventions of guitar that have been established by millions doing almost exactly what the last guy did? Because he has honed in his coordination and ability to focus on multiple tasks proficiently through probably years of practice? It's definitely showy but it's also very human imo
King devil jazz gitar stanley jordan yesss very best !
The guy who posted that found gods ipod
Its even cooler when you realize he's playing with his feet!
Waouuu !!! 😃👽
Virtuosic! He's from Chicago,Illinois. Can u dig it?
