Guys,
Surely some of you already saw this incredible video... Again in the frame of our current reflection about duets... Man those two HAD to meet!
I'm speechless...

PS: that cut before the end is inhuman!
Hi all,
After our long discussion about duets, I came across this very recent performance between Joe Locke and saxophonist Dick Oatts...
Man the vocabulary, energy, intensity are very dense and powerful!! They both must have gotten used up after that!! I enjoyed the reactions of the audience, and that great conversation after Joe's solo... and the end... yes the end and the joy on their faces! :o)

P.S.: can someone help me and name this tune?
Andrea was in a music school with adults. They were learning Giant Steps. He couldn't grasp the theory, so he just went home and learned it by himself. Now listen.
Any this story comes from John Daly. (John do i have it right?)
Chris Farr - sax
tony miceli - vibes
tom lawton - piano
micah jones - bass
jim miller - drums
Interesting because we've been talking about playing solo.
Denny is also a psychiatrist and a great pianist. He wrote the tune in the Real Book 'Quiet Now'.
This time I hope to get some feed back for as you know Jazz has been my life. I will be 86 yrs old October 13th and I am still trying to find different things to play on songs that I have been playing all my life (Not Easy). Now what I am about to say will throw a curve to a lot of your members but I say this from experience and I will try to explain what I am about to say as best as I can.
"YOU CANNOT TEACH ANYBODY TO REALLY PLAY JAZZ!" What you can teach them is how to compose, write songs. Back in the 50's I had a student that played the Vibes pretty good and now wanted to play jazz.
Cool tune!
Apparently kids from all over the world are playing the Glock! :-)
