Hey guys, I know that a lot of you are eager for my next Dark Side of the Moon project episode, and I promise that is coming next week. This video provided a unique opportunity to work with a really cool label and shine some light on an artist that I think is criminally underrated, so I hope you'll forgive me. If you want to check out the new Cannonball Adderley release, you can find it here: orcd.co/swingininseattle
Surprised that you didn't mention that 'Live at the Club' was actually recorded in studio, in front of a small audience that they brought in and got drunk to create the raucous atmosphere you hear on the record...and then was named 'Live at the Club' to promote The Club, an actual venue that a friend owned (this is why the album art says: Live at "The Club"--in quotes because it wasn't actually recorded there) Or that Cannonball literally has a song called "Fun"--too obvious for your thesis about putting the Fun in Jazz? :-D
@@iwobukwalt There's also "I Called Him Morgan" about Lee Morgan and, if you want to stretch the jazz definition a bit, the excellent "What Happened, Miss Simone" about Nina SImone.
looooove the fact that we're getting more Jazz videos, thank you man! If you're taking suggestions, I feel like Mingus might be a fun video to make/watch
That was the problem with that album, Miles at the time was never a sideman. "Somethin' Else" sounds like a Miles Davis album (albeit a very good one). Note that neither Wayne Shorter or Herbie Hancock used Miles on their albums, typically if they needed a trumpet, they used Freddie Hubbard.
@@David_T Miles was doing his own thing, and so were Herbie and Wayne. Part of Miles' artistic drive was to keep creating new and exciting music and a lot of the time that meant finding new musicians with diverse backgrounds and new ideas.
Gawd bless! I cannot understand why Cannonball isn't a bigger deal. His playing is insanely alive, versatile and jubilant. It's one of the most amazing things I've ever heard. The Somethin' Else album he leads on with "guest" Miles is one of the most overlooked albums in jazz. Cannonball deserves a mountain!
What a beautiful video! I’d love to see more about the lesser known jazz legends. Sonny Rollins, Dexter Gordon, Chet Baker, Anita O’day, Charlie Christian. And the rhythm guys: Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones, Elvin Jones, Scott LaFaro, McCoy Tyner, Ron Carter, Tommy Flannigan. Maybe the First generation as well, Buddy Bolden, Bix Biterbeck.
By early 1958, Cannonball Adderley was already part of Miles Davis' First Great Sextet playing along the likes of Hard Bop icons like John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones. There were many jam sessions for the members of this Sextet. But there was this particular session on March 9th which found Cannonball as a front man with Miles, Hank Jones, Sam Jones and the great Art Blakey. This session was Somethin' Else...
Cannoball (as well as Dexter Gordon) was my first Jazz hero, before I even began actually studying the music for myself. His ability to move between playing fun, fluid almost "joking" lines, to playing full blown Coltrane-esque "out" runs and go straight back to quoting something like "Pop Goes the Weasle" was enlightening to me.
My all time favourite saxophonist! His tone is so expressive, full and rich at the bottom of the register and at the top ( something not easy on alto sax!). Amazing sense of time, swing, phenomenal articulation, and an infinite musical box of original ideas. Long live Cannonball!!
I knew the Adderlys, they were my neighbors when I was a kid. Used to fish out back of their house. Great people and I was always intrigued by the memorabilia throughout the house. True game changers.
Agree, Adderley was unique and not possible to classify. He played bebop, hard bop, and funk. His phrasing is like a falling leaf tacking its way to earth.
One of the many things I loved about Cannonball is that when music moved into the Soul and Motown era, Cannon's feeling for the blues and gospel was so strong that that ended up being one of the strongest era's in his career! Also love his sidemen like Nat, Yusef Lateef, and Joe Zawinul!
I always thought that you can hear the 'Church' in Cannonball's playing on "Kind of Blue": It is the sound of joyous gospel. That is one of great things about the album, Cannonball's sound is a counterpoint to Coltrane's more somber and serious one.
His album “In Person” draws me back every time - “Dat Dere” is exactly what people hear when they think jazz, Timmons’ bashing the piano, Nat blasts it out and the Cannonball just rips through all of it. Wonderful piece. It is the coolest song ever played.
Great to see some love for Cannonball. "Know What I Mean?" has long been one of my very favorite albums. Their version of "Waltz for Debbie" is just beautiful!
I may be wrong, but jazz is still underground. It's still word of mouth. Thank your Polyphonic. Do a sh*tload on Mingus. In my eyes, the greatest jazz person of all time.
Interesting that at the point in my life where I've become interested in Jazz and yearning to play myself on tenor sax you've made 2 videos on Jazz in a row. Keep on making the good content!
Great video, really cool to see all the photos of this band. Cannonball has a fire and bounce like no one else! Also great to see Roy Mccurdy getting his due praise. Love the videos, keep em coming!!
I became good friends with Yusef Lateef by doing my impersonation of Cannonball introducing him on " Jive Samba ". I cracked him up so bad he giggled like a little kid! Cannonball's Greatest Hits my first jazz album. I also had Julian and Nat's high school music teacher for a week in 9th grade. He was a tough character. Roosevelt High School West Palm Beach FL.
Adderley got me into jazz, I first heard Work Song and Mercy Mercy Mercy at the recommendation of a friend and was hooked immediately. At the Lighthouse was the first jazz album I bought, and Sack o' Woe is still one of my favourite songs.
That particular session Mercy Mercy Mercy was with a hired audience and Capitol Records. Fantastic album truly, but I would look to The Cannonball Adderley Quintet Live at The Lighthouse if you want a truly live Cannonball experience, or any of the live footage on TH-cam.
I'm 18 now, and hearing Cannonball as a kid is what got me into jazz in the first place. While I respect the skill that Miles Davis and Coltrane have, I always found that it was lacking a special something. You phrased it perfectly here. There is a reason Sing Sing Sing by Benny Goodman is one of the most recognizable Jazz tunes today. Jazz isn't supposed to be cerebral and avante garde, it's fiery and emotional. It gets your blood pumping and your feet moving and makes you whoop and cheer with excitement. It's the joy and exuberance of a people who didn't get to experience much of it in the rest of their lives. Complex theory and rhythm are awesome, Cannonball used it all the time, but not when the jazz becomes ABOUT the complex theory and rythym. They are the tools to deliver the powerful, emotional product, not the product itself. So yeah. Rant over. Thanks for helping me word what I've been feeling for years
While I understand and respect your arguments, I have to disagree with the idea that jazz (or any art) is supposed to be something. Art is art. It can convey to the audience a myriad of feelings and all of them are valid and meaningful (especially when the creator is passionate and authentic). So yeah jazz can be beautiful by making “your blood pump” and it can be beautiful by being “cerebral”. I don’t appreciate when people try restrict art’s approach. You are entitled not to enjoy a certain approach but I don’t think ANYBODY is entitled to say what is “valid” or not. And John Coltrane or Miles are very expressive and emotional players, I don’t agree with your comparison at all. I apologize if I may have sounded harsh in this comment, it absolutely was not my intention.
@@pedrojoaquim756 Exactly. This video felt like some weird "not like other girls" take about jazz. It also suggests Cannonball wasn't as technical of a player, which simply isn't true. Listen to him on Straight No Chaser off of Milestones and he absolutely flies.
Jazz is a mode of expression. It can be fiery, cerebral, passionate, lethargic, melancholic, sensual, etc...Jazz is not limited to any emotion or feeling. It paints with all the colors of the palette, which is what makes it extraordinary.
I’d disagree with your claim that jazz is “supposed” to be anything - I’d argue that jazz as a medium is more so a way to express the entirety of your soul to your audience, if that makes sense. Simply put, jazz is whatever you want it to be and whatever the audience interprets it to be.
Lets also remember that Michael Brecker picked up a saxophone AFTER he heard Cannonball Play. Thats right. Cannonball is so important to jazz yet, hes underrated. His 70's albums grooved like no other and he replaced Joe with George Duke. And thats where Zappa first heard Duke playing EP. So many degrees of separation here...
Great video. It is amazing to me that these men, black men, were able to create such joyful, inspiring music in a time of such real hardship. That is truly heroic. It is a large contrast with today, when I find little inspiration let alone joy in popular music of this time, rap music. There is still racism, and the history of slavery, but it cannot be anything but be much better to be a black men today in America than any time before. Fortunately there are still great new jazz musicians like Cory Henry and the folks of Snarky Puppy.
Speaking about Cannonball Adderley and "joy", I would like to recommend his "Cannonball's Bossa Nova" album, which he recorded with Sérgio Mendes. Been hooked on it since the first listen, and his rendition of "O Amor em Paz" is really wonderful.
Cannonball showed his curiosity and versatility blowing with Sergio Mendes and the Bossa Rio Sextet (1962?). I was 10 when I my dad brought the LP home, and I love it to this day! Check out “O Amor Em Paz” ❤🎶
Actually, "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy" and the other tracks from that supposedly "live" album are studio recordings. but with an invited audience present. Capitol Records was using that strategy quite often in the mid-1960's. Lou Rawls' "live" album was similarly studio-recorded but with an invited audience.
My old sax professor told me that their live at "the club" was just recorded in a studio and they got a bunch of people to come in & make noise after solos and stuff haha
thanks for these jazz videos. love the channel, i hope you can keep doing these in a series... it'll be cool if you could make a video about Ahmad Jamal
😂😂The way you stretch out the end of your sentence is so funny to me! I'm not making fun, I think it's a great defining characteristic of your videos. Keep up the great work
Great vid man! I'd love to see one about deadmau5. He Explored many genres and styles through the years. One of the better electronic music artists out there imho.
First heard of cannonball adderley when I was in a record store that happened to be playing Love, Sex and the Zodiac. That was an interesting thing to realize was playing lol.
Surprised that you didn't mention that 'Live at the Club' was actually recorded in studio, in front of a small audience that they brought in and got drunk to create the raucous atmosphere you hear on the record...and then was named 'Live at the Club' to promote The Club, an actual venue that a friend owned (this is why the album art says: Live at "The Club"--in quotes because it wasn't actually recorded there) Or that Cannonball literally has a song called "Fun"--too obvious for your thesis about putting the Fun in Jazz? :-D

Joe Zawinul from WEATHER REPORT played with Cannonball's Quintet. You should do a video of Weather Report. Best Fusion Jazz band
I wish Netflix made a series about jazz, the evolution of music, the characters it'd be amazing
there are some movies on Netflix about jazz though, like ,,Birth of the cool” or ,,Chasing the Trane”
Ken Burn's documentary Jazz?
@@mcsplivens Yeah, recommended!
@@iwobukwalt There's also "I Called Him Morgan" about Lee Morgan and, if you want to stretch the jazz definition a bit, the excellent "What Happened, Miss Simone" about Nina SImone.
With Polyphonic as director
looooove the fact that we're getting more Jazz videos, thank you man! If you're taking suggestions, I feel like Mingus might be a fun video to make/watch
Mingus' politics would be quite relevant right now.
Let's just say that Cannonball's album "Somethin' Else" features Miles Davis as a sideman. That's right as a sideman.
Wow, that's somethin' else
That was the problem with that album, Miles at the time was never a sideman. "Somethin' Else" sounds like a Miles Davis album (albeit a very good one). Note that neither Wayne Shorter or Herbie Hancock used Miles on their albums, typically if they needed a trumpet, they used Freddie Hubbard.
@@David_T Miles was doing his own thing, and so were Herbie and Wayne. Part of Miles' artistic drive was to keep creating new and exciting music and a lot of the time that meant finding new musicians with diverse backgrounds and new ideas.
this is the album that drew me into jazz. Their version of Autumn Leaves is amazing!
David T Cannonball was unambiguously the leader of Somethin Else. Not sure why you feel as if it’s a Miles album.
Gawd bless! I cannot understand why Cannonball isn't a bigger deal. His playing is insanely alive, versatile and jubilant. It's one of the most amazing things I've ever heard. The Somethin' Else album he leads on with "guest" Miles is one of the most overlooked albums in jazz. Cannonball deserves a mountain!
Cannonball Adderley cover album Fiddler on the roof, is one of favorite albums.
a great album for sure
What a beautiful video! I’d love to see more about the lesser known jazz legends. Sonny Rollins, Dexter Gordon, Chet Baker, Anita O’day, Charlie Christian. And the rhythm guys: Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones, Elvin Jones, Scott LaFaro, McCoy Tyner, Ron Carter, Tommy Flannigan. Maybe the First generation as well, Buddy Bolden, Bix Biterbeck.
He should do one about The Jazz Messengers, too
He needs to do one on a Coltrane quartet with guys like mccoy tyner and love supreme
You guys are all listing incredibly famous jazz musicians lmfao. They're only "lesser known" if you've never bothered googling "jazz musicians"
Sonny Rollins - lesser known? lol
Chet Baker - lesser known?

Please don’t stop doing jazz videos they are great
I had never dug into Cannonball Adderley's discography or given him much thought. This was a great treat. Now I love him.
One of the many things I loved about Cannonball is that when music moved into the Soul and Motown era, Cannon's feeling for the blues and gospel was so strong that that ended up being one of the strongest era's in his career! Also love his sidemen like Nat, Yusef Lateef, and Joe Zawinul!
I should add George Duke later on in the early stages of his career, who's musical personality reminds me of Cannon in many ways.
I always thought that you can hear the 'Church' in Cannonball's playing on "Kind of Blue": It is the sound of joyous gospel. That is one of great things about the album, Cannonball's sound is a counterpoint to Coltrane's more somber and serious one.

Dark Side Of The Moon Addict doesn’t excuse it
Yeah weather report!
The FallenOneZz anytime someone says ‘but’ you have to disregard all commentary previous to that word
Autumn Leaves is still my favorite jazz performance ever
Cannonball Adderley has been my favourite saxophonist for a year now and he's been an absolute inspiration for me.
Great to see some love for Cannonball. "Know What I Mean?" has long been one of my very favorite albums. Their version of "Waltz for Debbie" is just beautiful!
Your editing is on point!
Finally another brilliant underrated saxophonist getting what he deserves

PLEASE do more jazz videos! I love your videos on them
Love it. This gave me a huge inspiration. Now I aspire to bring jazz to the mass. Here me out and see me in 10 years
His live rendition of 74 Miles Away is my favorite tune ever.
