    This guy lived in my old building in Brooklyn. Felt like I lived next door to Sonny Rollins hearing his deep deep practice routines

    Seamus is right up there with the masters. Beautiful. And effortless.

    Seamus Blake...Man, I had no idea. Nevermind that Sonny Stitt, Dexter Gordon & so many other great souls have recently passed. That's always a hard pill to swallow. Losing a soulful jazz master is the hardest thing. But when we see evidence that a new (old) voice is emerging, that is the greatest possible news on the jazz planet.
    My man Seamus isn't unique--there are so many others out there earnestly plying their trade--but I wanted to particularly thank him for his Skylark interpretation & to thank TH-cam, & certainly Jazz at Emmet's Place, for providing this cool, groovy & free platform that allows heretofore creative talents to perform, shine, & hopefully thrive.

    Seamus blowing my mind with perfection again. Emmett is such a great player. We are fortunate and grateful to hear these seessions.

    This is a whole new level of passion for this music. In my opinion a lot of the heart that was missing from this music Emmett has quickly revived through these sessions. And brought to the attention of the masses. So much respect for everyone in involved with this and I’m proud to be part of this culture.

    I was enrolled at Berklee as a sax player around 1989 and heard Seamus playing as a 19 year old freshman. Dave Liebman was in the small audience next to me and we both turned to each other in amazement and exclamation about how good Seamus was. And now he is even better!

    Real tasty accompaniment by Cohen on the piano to Blake's interpretation of one of the prettiest ballads.

  • @jefferyneu3915
    @jefferyneu3915 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Beautiful playing by all. I really appreciate the restraint and soulful of Mr. Cohen. Understated, great harmonic sense, without feeling the need to show off the blazing technique we all knows he has. That’s the sign of a master at work.❤️

  • @Stryke2wice
    @Stryke2wice 2 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I must have listened to this well over fifty times at this point, and yet it always sounds as fresh as the first time. Just one of the most beautiful tenor sounds I've ever heard, and the expressiveness of his solo from beginning to end, wow. So many stand out moments to mention, but the segment from around 2:59 to 4:35, especially that lead into the change in time feel around 3:45, just absolutely magical. The whole ensemble killed this, this is jazz in it purest and greatest form!

    Emmet just keeps on kickin' ass. He plays like he's been doing this for another 20 years at least. And he keeps picking the best people to work with...

  • @frederickhill7181
    @frederickhill7181 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The unassuming, mottled -brown skylark has inspired two priceless pieces of music. One is "The Lark Ascending by Ralph Vaughan Williams." The other is this one by Hoagy Carmichael. Emmet and his gang are truly riding on the bird's wings.

    The playing is outstanding but man you guys need some great mics and preamps. I know the argument of wanting it to be honest but Miles used Nueman 49s, top end channels and other great mics plus they played in acoustically designed rooms. So why not step the gear up to the professional level of the playing?
