As a trumpet player, like that you pointed out about Roy going for it at the end, it's risky when your chops have taken a beating. The humility he had, the willingness to go for notes he might not fully get is so refreshing. He makes everything look easy. He sits in the upper range so effortlessly and makes it sound so soft and full. I'm not sure how he did that. An absolute inspiration on every level. That section towards the end where he ascends with the tremolo phrasing is so impressive, the technique and musicality all the way, but above all the heart.
The second quote after The Message, is actually "Strawberry Letter #23" by the Brothers Johnson.
Man it's such a shame they removed the actual video of this performance from RUclips....I think it's still available other places...This is badass, so cleannnn and hip.
You disrespected the GREAT GREAT SIR ROBINSON on saxophone... his solo on this live is a full tribute to music, technicaly amazing and beyond words in terms of groove and instant creativity. Roy and him had a beautiful relationship. RIP Roy my hero. Good video though
Ah... what? He's dead?no.
The hip hop lines are from Grandmaster Flashs "The Message." Ice Cube "check yo self" making a very popular sample. Peter' referencing the line from Outkast' " Ms. Jackson" a sample from a Brothers Johnson tune. Great show guys.
Nailed it on that this solo is the pinnacle of trumpet playing in so many ways. We should find encouragement in what music can be, not discouraged that we might not ever be able to match it or come close. Roy found his niche and owned it, and we can too.
Without a doubt one of the greatest Trumpet solos this century. The setup chorus on one note at 18.10 is the simplest and best part of this - the ultimate relaxed chorus and at the same time pushing and setting up the band for him to move up into the higher resister for the rest of the solo. Absolutely masterful playing and listening. As a Trumpet player I still listen to this every week - there’s so much to learn from it. On top of that Justin’s Alto solo is also remarkable. Truly a seminal performance made all the better by missing the top F (Eb concert) at the start of the last chorus and then just laughing and coming back and nailing it!
Roy forever. My King
Like his solo, this was warm, interesting, honest and void of pretension. Your enthusiasm and insight is appreciated , thanks!
A great analysis--and a wonderful tribute to the memory of one of the best and most inspiring musicians of his generation, gone far too soon. RIP Roy.
Well done guys. I had the pleasure of seeing Roy perform live only a few times. Missing him, yeah every day.
My fav solo anaylsis so far. We miss you Roy
Thankyou for this! It seems like this is the only place to relive the original video, considering they took it down! Great analysis. Love it gents
This was one of the first jazz tunes I learned (I was the trumpeter for a makeshift funk jazz group). This solo is phenomenal. I was blown away by how simple, easy, and melodic it sounds but I was also taken back by how difficult it is to get it right. A lot of guys could learn this at a B- maybe B+ level, but to bring it home and play it with 100% accuracy is not an easy feat. Roy was very stylish in his playing no matter the tune but this one exposed him as a musician and as a person. Great episode guys, I loved it and learned something new today. Keep it up!
I saw this group play at the Detroit Jazz festival and play all the songs from the Ear Food CD. It was one of the best sets of any band I have ever heard. Roy was amazing and still sounds hip. Thanks for taking us through his solo. It's cool that something so fun is so sophisticated. I would love for you to analyze some of Justin's solos some day.
I love this. This is something I’ve wanted to do for a while! Inspired!! Great job!
Incredible. I am learning this tune now and playing it on my next gig!
A fantastic tribute! We love you Roy Hargrove!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
