Which performance was your favorite? What concept/approach did you find most appealing? Let me know! 🤘
My Top Three are Barry Greene (for concept), Tim Lerch (for tone) and Jonathan Stout (for originality). I watched this video twice and I must say that all of the performers are world class. I did not want to watch it a third time because I would probably have to change my mind...
Thanks for making this possible, Chase Maddox! 👏
Mr. Tim Lerch- but love them all.
Cecil Alexander, Barry Greene, Graham Dechter - especially liked these
cecil reminded me of barney kessell occasionally there, wowzers. He rips but also has sick feel.
Tim Lerch….soo good!
You're lucky to have had such a great player for a teacher.
Definitely!
Thank you so much Chase it was a real pleasure to watch this vid and enjoy and be inspired by all of these fine players. I’m honored and more than a bit humbled to have been part of the gang. Tim
Appreciate your work and playing on this!
Tone, taste and telecasters… so true
Your take on this was phenomenal. Thanks so much - inspiring.
I’ve got a bunch of your truefire courses and doing the 7 day trial of solo sensai all day. Thank you so much for helping me to make more beautiful music. I love your lessons cause of your calming presence then I learned you were a zen monk and I thought “that tracks”.
With Barry you gave us The Dessert Before The Main Course, Love him and our RIP Friend Pat Martino ❤
Haha that’s one way to put it! 🙌
Tim Lerch, focus, complexity, tones, sounds, cleanliness, timing, oh and an impressive telecaster, and Jonathan Stout, so classic, with the sound and the effortless playing.
Thanks for watching!
I agree. The fist thing that hit me was the tone. Perfect execution.
Musicality and originality and genius also come to mind
That was dope af and I subbed.
My 2 favorite from the video!
Liked them all, but Barry Greene’s chord choices/ arrangement made him my favorite.
Thanks for watching!
Dan Wilson is the craziest man in today's jazz scene😂😂😂
Man is on fire! 🔥
Cecil Alexander, for his melodic soulful solo, Stout's mastery of chordal swing, and all the others for being so damn good.
Thanks for checking it out!
Thanks so much, cheers!
Holy cow, Max Light was incredible. I loved that so much
Glad to hear it!
Jonathan strout did some sick things, loved his swing. Very very cool
Thanks, even with an extra "r" added. Ha!
I thought he’d add some interesting contrast to the other guys. Glad you enjoyed!
Jonathan had just fantastic tones from his guitars.
I loved Dan Wilson’s version, so creative and technically dazzling, but he always keeps the melody close by.
Thanks for listening! 🤘
Finally able to finish vid. Cecil's version blew my mind.
Cecil Alexander's George Bensonnesque version was amazing.
Around 2011 I attended a Tommy Emmanuel concert at the Florida Theater in Jacksonville. Barry Greene was the guest guitarist. OMG, Barry Greene’s playing is just incredible. He played a few Django pieces with Tommy which were surreal. If you have the chance to hear Barry go do it, he’s a phenomenal musician.
Absolutely! 🤘
Jonathan Stout is such a beast.. real "Pioneer of Jazz guitar" type of player
Absolutely 🤘
I prefer players that don't go too far out and instead keep in mind what song they're playing. The mood the song has is a very important thing to me. Therefore, Cecil's playing really made me smile! Beautiful single-note runs, smart chord choices and just the right amount of trickery! I could listen to that for hours! ❤
Thanks for listening! 🙌
I loved them ALL, very technical stuff, but yes, Cecil Alexander brought it home 👏🏿👏🏿
@@ChaseMaddox Oh and one more thing... Bends. Way too many people think bending strings is forbidden in jazz. If that were the case, Gábor Szabó would never have made a single record. 😄
I agree with you 100%. I think that is the mark of great musicianship. It’s ok to play outside. But you need to keep the listener knowing where they are in the song.
Graham Dechter is so incredible and this clip is no exception. Thank you!
He really went in on this one! 🤘
Max Light. So beautiful and original. And Graham Dechter - amazing.
Tim Lerch, man…every single time 🔥
Dan Wilson plays so beautifully, such a class act, using Monk basslines, that's original and Dan is a true original, ca.t imagine that being bested.
Appreciate your thoughts! 🙏
Tim Lerch…. The tone! He easily brought new unique beauty to this already beautiful song! All the subtly gorgeous dynamic manipulation he is able to apply to coax this magic from his instrument is so remarkable. Deep, Pure, musical, expressive beauty! Sorry for gushing!
Gush away! 🤘
I love Jon Stouts playing!!
Cheers and thanks!
He’s great!
Max Light, Tim Lerch and John Storie stood out for me. Especially Max Light was interesting and most out of the box.
Thanks for your thoughts! 🙏
Thanks man, honored to be on the clip with so many outstanding guitarists
Tim Lerch and Jonathan Stout
All really good and very stimulating ideas from all Barry Green was my favourite great inspirational video thank ypu
Thanks David! 🤘
My favourite was Barry Greene, perfection.
Everyone's performance was amazing; I particularly enjoyed those of Barry Greene and Tim Lerch.
Awesome, thanks Diego! 🤘
Tim had me swinging. The development of his ideas unfolded beautifully too. Terrific
Glad you enjoyed!
Ive never heard of Dan Wilson but his performance blew me away. Loved the Monk bass fills he did and he has amazing chops that fit right into the song. Discovering Dan was alone worth the watching of this video. Max and Cecil were were my 2 other favorites. Great job everyone!
Glad to have introduced you to Dan’s playing! 🤘
Check his work with the late Joey DeFrancesco, e.g. "100 Ways". Amazing player.
Raul Middow, great guitarist that I did not know. Wonder how many more like him that are out there ?
Great to see this concept brought into the jazz space. I really dig Jonathan Stout’s playing; he’s a modern master of a somewhat lost style. Tim Lerch makes everything sound like warm honey. Just great all around.
Thanks for watching! 🙏
Thanks so much!
@@campusfive I second this, they're all great players but that one really stood out to me for sure
Tims playing is so subtle and and mellow and that is the general goal that I think we should have on a guitar very relaxing not too much tension solo but just beautiful because it fits with the song
Thanks for watching and for your thoughts! 🙏
My fav was Graham Dechter hands down loved where he took this piece.
Graham Dechter, Barry Greene and Max Light were particularly inspiring for me here. However, these are all amazing guitarists and each take is special.
Well said! 🤘
All were awesome performances - everyone owned it big time. Loved the old time from J Stout - that was a treat.
Glad you thought so!
Cheers and thanks!
Wow, I didn't know any of these players. All were great but the two JS's -- John Storie and Jonathan Stout -- were the ones I most wanted to listen to over and over. I'm checking out everybody's stuff online.
Oh man I’m honored to have introduced you to all these great players! 🙏
Wow, thanks!
Thanks man! Stout is a beast too!
I didn't watch the whole video yet, but Tim Lerch made it for me, not only a master in technique, but also extremely pleasing and full of feeling. Loved it as a guitarist but mostly as a human
Thanks for watching Alessandro! 🤘
I really enjoyed Barry Greene and Max light..and of course Cecil too
Thanks for watching!
Tim all the way.
I never EVER supposed at this time of my life I'd learn SO MUCH using one of the most underrated tunes on the American-Jazz Songbook (well, at least here among Brazilian supposed-to-be jazz players). I'm still shocked with the first performance!! Thank you so much for sharing!
That was the goal! Glad you got so much out of it 🤘
They all are mind blowing! Personal favorites are Stout because he swings so hard, and Stryker because he plays the tune and delivers it with a good feel, nice sound, and a thoughtful but appropriate arrangement. Again, everyone’s performance is fantastic making this video a treasure trove of guitar knowledge. Many thanks to everyone who made this!
Thanks for checking it out! 🤘
Wow, thanks!
Mind blowing… my thoughts, exactly.
Tim Lerch, as he goes on the journey of the song he takes you with him, never feel like I'm
being left behind and enjoyed every note along the way.
Thanks for watching!
That's a good way to put it and I agree. I'm a guitarist but I'm not so immersed in jazz that I can hold on to some of the wilder rides (especially with no backing track). Tim still went on a journey but I never felt lost. Also as soon as I saw and heard his tele I knew he was a bit different and wasn't disappointed.
@@silphv yeah, I play too but am also not into the 'wilder rides' of jazz as you put it so Tim's
version was perfect for me. The fact that Autumn Leaves is my all time fav song also helped :)
Cool video, great idea. All were terrific. I liked the Tele-jazzers, just goes to show, it's a versatile instrument. I've always loved Jonathan Stout's swinging groove, he gets that acoustic to really project! (And of course, the Charlie Christian vibe!) Tim Lerch's tones and harmonic ear are wonderful. And Dave Stryker really had that groove going as well - I want to learn some of those bits! Makes me want to play!
Appreciate you checking it out!
I can't even imagine how effort you put it. I really enjoyed entire video. My pick is Tim Lerch :)
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Love that tele & the tones it produces. Great player pulling the trigger on it.
Thanks for watching! 🤘
Really cool concept, Chase! Didn't see any mention of Graham Dechter's playing. His time feel and groove can provide a treasure trove of study alone--and his sound REALLY fills the room, in person or on video. Check out his playing on The Lineage Trio--classic, bright, and swinging. Great teacher as well--helped me develop my sound!
It'd be awesome to do this again. What about Peter Bernstein, Andy Brown, Bobby Broom, Bruce Foreman, Ed Cherry, Julian Lage, Mark Whitfield, Russell Malone...? The list goes on. Impressive work with getting all these great musicians to play on one tune. Please, please, please, keep the ball rolling!
I was also blown away by Graham’s playing as you might be able to tell from my reactions. All the guys killed it! Great suggestions 👌
Lots of cool ideas from everyone here. My man Jonathan Stout brings in the swing though, making it the most listenable to me and the one I would keep going back to.
Good point!
Incredible idea!!! Amazing collaboration, Love it ❤❤❤
Thank you! 🤘
Loved it all. Will have to listen again to pull out a fave!
Yes!
That much talent and hard work.. Beautiful compilation!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Chase, what a great idea! Hopefully more to come.
You bet! 🤘
Tim Lerch´s playing is on another level. All of these ara amazing guitar players. Excelent video man!!
Yes they are!
This was fantastic ! Thanks Chase
Thanks Lou! I have another coming soon! 🤘
Need more of thisss❤❤
Wonderful all around. Thanks for doing this, Chase, and thanks to all of this world-class musicians for playing so great!
Hey Adam! Thanks for checking it out, and glad you appreciate it. I'm a fan of your channel as well 🙏
This is a great idea. Thank you for doing this
Glad you liked it! 🤘
Great players here, no question.
Mr. Stout is the standout for me. He really illustrated the importance of playing over something more than "just what you're hearing in your head".
Thanks for watching 👍
Those split second decisions I see Barry do, amazing. I'll quickly go see the rest. Thanks Maddox
Thanks for watching!
thanks to the players for taking "the challenge" and thank you chase putting this together. what a great concept. all the guitarists bring something to the party - some of whom i wasn't familiar with. this is an absolute treasure trove - almost encyclopedic. so much to digest here. will be coming back again and again.
My pleasure! That’s the idea! I wanted this to be super valuable and something people would want to come back to again and again.
Great video. Wonderful to hear how different musicians approach the same tune. Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
Enjoyed all the playing and particularly how different everyones approach was. Thanks for doing this.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤘
Great performances! My favorite is Cecils solo, it's so melodic. I would love to see another one of these videos
Glad you dug them! 🤘
Great vid! Kudos all around!
Thanks for watching! 🤘
Awesome video brother! Glad to see so many great musicians all play this tune 🙌
More to come! 🤘
Nice assist!
They were ALL amazing and it's hard to remember back to which was the most interesting/appealing. But I do remember feeling particularly energized by Max Light, Tim Lerch, and Graham Dechter. I fee like those three guys took a tune everyone knows, and did something really unique. Also Raul Midon's version was really joyous, which I loved, but, as I said, they were all wonderful.
Thanks for watching! 🤘
Amazing, all of them … I could appreciate all the different subtle variations. Very rich. Very inspiring. Thank you everyone.
Thanks for listening and appreciating! 🙏
great playing from all of the guitarists. thanks
Thanks for listening! 🙏
Jonathan Stout, Dave Stryker, and Cecil Alexander for me. Great video 👌🎶🙂
Excellent video. I really enjoyed this, not only was the playing and improvising great, the philosophies that all these players have about music, was valuable, and insightful for me, and the differences in sound, approach, etc, gave me a well rounded listen. I'm gonna look for more of these on your channel, so thx again. All of these were great, I watched ALL twice, Graham Decthers version blows me away.
Thank you! I’ve got 3 more of these videos types on my channel. One with a group of guitarists playing a blues and my most recent with guitarists playing over a ballad 🤘
WOW!!
Some awesome playing!!
Fantastic performances!!
👍🎩👌
Many thanks!!
Really great video - every player gave a different but valid and beautiful interpretation on this classic standard. Going to have to listen through a few more times to each one.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤘
Loved this intimate glimpse into all these brilliant musicians. At the end it was a prayer saying there is room for us all.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤘
I could listen to all these guys solo works forever. There is a certain genius in their play and approach to the music. It's always wonderful to hear and wonder how they do it. For me, Tim Lerch is one of my favs so I loved his approach- very Ted Green. Your list of players turned me on to some guys I was not familiar with. Can't wait to dig into their stuff. Thanks for that. Loved this!
Amazing guitar playing!
Great concept and I can only say that the originality of all performers was very inspiring indeed for a " classical " player.Great job thanks so much.
Thanks for listening!
This is so cool! well done all!
Thanks for checking it out!
What a great video! They were all amazing, and you've introduced a bunch of fantastic new-to-me musicians. So much to learn from the depth and variety of approaches and concepts, but if i had to call out anything in particular, it would be the musicality of Cecil Alexander's phrasing - so tasty! ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! 👌👌
Thanks Chase for posting this. All really great players (and at least one I know of is also a KILLER singer). Sincerely appreciated Mr. Stout bringing the old school playing as well as all of the other diverse of playing styles (and yea KILLER chops too ).
Thanks for watching, Kevin! 🙌
Thanks for making this incredible lesson/performance - one of the best things ever for jazz guitar!!
Super cool!. Many many revelations , each player brought something compelling to the the table - Max light was wild, loved Cecil’s simple tasteful melody statement , could go on and on
Lots of material here to keep listening to and learn from
Thanks !!!!!
Thanks for checking it out, and feel free to keep coming back! 🤘
Amazing content! Very inspiring 🤘
Appreciate it! 🤘
This vid is a phenomenal teaching tool. Listening is the only activity in music and in life, more important than playing. Thank you for the contribution.
Glad you enjoyed it, Dudley! More on the way!
Can you meet and interview the jazz guitar legend whos still alive today?
Kenny Burrell & John Pisano
Its will be a exited content!
awesome video. I am always searching for pros playing standards that I can learn from. these are all amazing and eclectic examples of virtuosic playing but with elements that any of us can use to approach these tunes with. amazing stuff! what a wonderful display of the diversity of jazz guitar!
Glad you like them! 🙌
This is a fantastic video. Thanks for organising this. The song is so melodic. Wonderful sounding guitars. Finger style is the best.
Thanks Colton! 🤘
Stout is such a cool guy and wonderful play
I usually wouldn’t watch such a long TH-cam video, but this was an awesome idea. Enjoyed it immensely. Thank you.
Glad you gave it a chance! 🤘
This is one of the best formats on TH-cam. Many TH-cam channels do a horrible thing called pattern interrupts where they do annoying things throughout the video and make cheesy distracting jokes to increase viewer confusion and thus retention. Conversely this was a normal straightforward way to organize a video and I appreciate that.
I try to make videos that I want to watch. Glad you enjoyed 🤘
Great video. Everyone sounded great !
Thanks for checking it out! 👌
This is so awesome. Always see it with rock and such but never like this. And with tons of my youtube favorites. Gracias Chase.
Exactly! Once I realized I couldn’t think of a jazz version, I knew I had to solve that 🤘
This was really cool, liked the wrap w Cecil up bluesy feel, just right w all
Thanks for digging! 🤘
i loved Tims fingerstyle on telecaster. Also John its clear melodi the hole way !
Appreciate you listening! 🙏
Took me a couple sittings to absorb all this. All the renditions were great and the players were very generous to share their thoughts. From rubato versions to swing to hard rhythmic bopping. Excellent.
That was the goal! And all I asked them was to play the tune in their style. No requests for how to play it, what tempo, etc.
This is an incredible concept!! Would love more of this so much. Instead of then just saying what they did, it would be cool to interview them about it. Tim was great. He kept tempo well and wasn’t rushing or show-offy, just making great music.
Thanks for watching!
My Favorite was Max Light, loved the melodies and technique, he took this standard to the next level.
Second was Dave Styker, his feel, swing and timing were excellent.
Third, Tim Lerch, incredible feel and harmonic sensibilities.
This was tough, as everyone played so very well. I really enjoyed getting such a wide perspective on this classic standard.
Thanks for you sharing your thoughts! 🤘
Great video, thanks.
Thank you! 🙏
Very cool idea - thanx!
Glad you liked it! 🤘
I watched Paul's video and thought wouldn't it be great to see Jazz guitarist do something similar. Well, prayers have been answered. Thank you so much for this. So many guitarists could have been chosen for this. Couple of new findings for me here so really greatful for this. It was outstanding 👏🏾
I be watching this a few times for sure! 🇬🇧
Thank you! Glad you gave it a shot 🙏
Great video Chace. I think what this video reveals is the essential appeal of (jazz) music; it’s the unique voice of each musician. Music isn’t a competition, each performance is fascinating and beautiful.
Chase, not “Chace”. Sorry.
Well said! 😎
Great performances and all wonderful players, some that I hadn't heard before! I hate to pick one because I don't like approaching music like an Olympic sport, but I have to say that Barry Greene is a tough act to follow for any world-class player. So much interesting stuff in there and so well executed, a piece of art!
I’m glad you were introduced to some new guitarists! 🤘
Definitely checking these guys out, subscribing to some of their channels already!
Great video Chase! I enjoyed the different approaches to this classic. My favorites are Cecil Alexander and Dave Stryker. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it, Jerry! 🤘
More videos like this please!!
Working on it!
