One of the best👌 solos I have heard to date: using properly placed punctuation marks - commas, colons, semi-colons, periods etc., so to say - Chris Potter slowly and intentionally builds (up) his ad lib into a captivating climax, thus demonstrating the Art or Science of developing a coherent Jazz Improvisation. Don't you notice that Chris has herein "abandoned", almost entirely, his expert penchant for speed wherein "less is more" - a la Miles Davis. His subtle use of altissimos is very well 👌 placed - a feat 👏 I am endeavoring to acquire and apply on demand. The clarity and precision of Chris'👋 notes are marvelously effected with expert dexterity and mastery, I am persuaded to observe and affirm. Don't you also admire the shakes and sharp trills during his improvisation? I do. Thanks for the post 📫
I'm gonna get caned but every time I see this Potter it's like Adolf has shaved his 'tache. Lot's of technical exercises but no emotional input least of all any 'blues'. It takes all kinds eh?
I agree. I can't hear any blues after the first few bars. Amazing technique, and it sometimes looks like he's experiencing some excitement, but I'm left cold.
Man what a solo ❤️❤️❤️
I would note how well matched/meshed the bass and drums are with his playing; they are interesting without being competitive.
Chris is soooooo insanely good.. I'm so glad he is around when MB is gone, otherwise I would go ballistic
The man himself! Cool

Are you kidding? This is pure blues, but with modern harmonies.

Hey Mark, didn't you write the exact same comment about Coltrane's and Blues for Alice? kidding ;)
@@speakbulgariantoday Sadly I'm not a great fan of J.C. either.
Dexter Gordon on the other hand...
