Turn Up That Jazz, Captain

Bobby Hutcherson - Old Devil Moon - YouTube
Bobby Hutcherson, vibes on this video. Free jazz at it's finest, in my opinion. The drummer on this video is the late, great Eddie Marshall, who was the first call guy for guys like Kenny Burrell, John Handy, John Klemmer, George Benson, Art Pepper, etc when they toured through northern CA. I took drum lessons from him in the early ’70’s, and it’s still influencing me.

Also, it's definitely not jazz, but whomever's in Denver on 9/28, check out RockUnited 3 at the Buffalo Rose. It's four bands that have United pilots in them, all playing to raise some $ for a UA flight attendant with brain cancer and Pilots for Kids. I'll be playing with one of them.

The seeker who does not find is still entrapped by his illusion of two worlds: one of perfection that lies beyond, of peace without struggle, of unending joy; the other the everyday meaningless world of pain and evil which is scarcely worth relating himself to. Secretly he longs for the former even as he openly despises the latter. Yet he hesitates to plunge into the teeming Void, into the abyss of his own Primal-nature, because in his deepest unconscious he fears abandoning his familiar world of duality for the unknown world of Oneness, the reality of which he still doubts. The finders, on the other hand, are restrained by neither fears nor doubts. Casting both aside, they leap because they can't do otherwise--they simply must and no longer know why--and so they triumph.

Check out this very Avant Garde vid of Joshua Redman playing with a very unique trio called The Bad Plus.

Someone uploaded this recently, Up Jumped Spring. Freddie Hubbard is one of the greatest trumpet players there will ever be, he died some years ago after a long and prolific career. He was the utmost can-do-it trumpeter, it boggles the mind really when you think about it. Even Miles Davis while the greatest jazz artists in some ways, could never quite best Hubbard in consistency and total musical output.

Gene "Jug" Ammons' music is featured in the new film, Fading Gigolo. Sorry there are a few few ads to click out of in some of these links. "Jug" was a stylist in the bebop idiom, not really an huge innovator in that area but one hell of an entertainer. He also inspired a lot of horn players to develop their own way of playing, as his style was so unique. Small night club jazz like his was a wonderful form of entertainment in the day, too bad the current generation does not get it. Maybe the film will help!

Here's one of Joey DeFrancesco playing the blues a few year ago. DeFrancesco adopted the jazz organ at a time when it was in a bit of a lull in the jazz community during the late 1980s, when the jazz community more or less saw the gradual expiration of many established players and a reluctance of younger generations to adopt the instrument. Joey revived the organ by adopting some of the best aspects of the instrument's lengthy and illustrious past, and even though he is not the most innovative player himself, he had a huge ability to organize and retain the great innovations of previous artists before him. This gave the instrument a much needed shot in the arm it still enjoys today. Let's hope Joey also takes care of his weight soon, he's way too young to leave the jazz world.
