I'm an old friend or Red Garland. We were kind of like family. Red used to play with my father, back in the 1940s, in Dallas, Texas. Then I used to play with Red, back in the early 1980s, until he passed away in 1984. I'm a trumpet player. I received a lot of encouragement from Red. Anyway, I want to say thank you for your dedication to share Red's concept.
Miles was definitely thinking 'Block chords' in the traditional sense. Miles played in Dizzy's, Billy Eckstein and Benny Carter's big bands, he most certainly knows how a block chord should sound. However, what Red gave him was something slightly different and he welcomed it. And just like that, history is made.
I've transcripted the bunch of red's tunes and memories his solos and block chords To me, red garland is my musical father, master, and jazz itself. I really love his sound. Try to keep it in mind forever
SO much beauty in a quick intro, and just tossed off at the drop of a hat! That high-level mastery is what I strive for. The gist of these voicings is a style in itself (also reminiscent of Gene Harris and that bluesy, dreamy, "nightclub" sound), and well worth the time to develop fluency in. Voicings quite like these are in the first chapters of the Elements of Jazz Piano course from Open Studio. I just got that course just over a week ago, and I am loving it! And, I might add, I was not paid nor prompted to write this!
i just watched this and this helped me so much. i'm not a very good pianist yet and this is probably the coolest and easiest technique to play block chords and it also sounds really good. i'm so grateful for this
Great video! It's a unique style of Red's that sounds sophisticated and elegant when played with the right touch. Red seems to play the middle 5th very gently between the octaves in the RH. They sound ethereal, almost like blended harmonics.
Wonderful!Finally figured out what approach are using Red Garland here and Bill Evans on another video of yours.My 2 favorite pianists!Thanks man and keep it up!
Yo, Adam. Greetings from Carolina! Time to hip your audience to the finesse and crisp, cool, bluesy rhythms of the penultimate hard bop pianist of the 20th Century - the one that nobody talks about. That’s right: Sonny Clark. Good prep would be the trio recordings of the late 50s with Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones. You can thank me later.
The last time I saw Red Garland was at the jazz club Rash Life in the Village, New York. The quartet featured Red on piano, Cecil McBee on bass, Junior Cook on saxophone, and my mentor Leroy Williams on drums. It seemed Red could only play chords by then.
This is just so awesome ! But doesn't he slide in the second measure into the 3the beat? Also in the last measure he ties the last chords on the 4th measure into the End ... just some subtel details :p

Thanks Open Studio for ur great videos. Just a note of clarification to Adam, with all due respect, Miles calling out to Red G. to play Block Chords was on Red how he interpreted that. Later on in the song he does in fact play the Block Style we associate with George Shearing and let us not forget the Errol Garner right handed and left handed Block Chord style. Just saying.

I'd love to hear some stories
thats actually so cool... wtf I can't believe you knew one of the greats. RIP.
That's terrific, man ! What a story.
Thanks for knowing such a good story
Red's sense of melody is of a grand-master level, love him

Love Shearing block chords. Yes Red keeps a uniform shape. Love it!

Beautiful. Red is pure art. Thank you.

Red Garland has such an amazing timing. Great video. The way you share your love for music is really cool. Thanks.

This was a beautiful homage as well as a beautiful music lesson.
This is terrific! And, yes, Red is very underrated.
Holy crap!!! I've always loved that intro (and the prologue). Thank you!
A very nice, elegant sound. And worth incorporating into my playing experience.
Thank you Adam🎹❤🎶👏👏👏

Thanks for this lesson. Intense and beautiful.

Lush Life

Loved it thanx
Great lesson. More like this, por favor
Amazing!
Now we need a tutorial on soloing like Red
why dont you put these exercises as pdf?
This is just so awesome ! But doesn't he slide in the second measure into the 3the beat? Also in the last measure he ties the last chords on the 4th measure into the End ... just some subtel details :p
Really enjoyed the tutorial :) Just one thing: that first F chord is actually F13b9 not F13
Where’s the b9 tho. Don’t see it
@@Zacharysandilands Listen to the original see if you can hear it :)
@@nicholasfranck Ah yep my bad, that is true. Gotta stick to the podcasts motto hey.

The practice part is unnecessary and just extends the video for nothing.
So rude person, click out if you dont like. Your comment was what was unnecessary 😠
Please, what's the name of the song?
You are my everything
