Al McLean - Tenor Saxophone
Jaleel Shaw - Alto Saxophone
Bryn Roberts - Piano
Jason Davis - Bass
Montreal based saxophonist Al McLean joins New York alto master Jaleel Shaw on Monk's 'Bemsha Swing'. Shaw's solo is vibrant, combining angular modern phrasing with a soulful, deep reaching growl. The combination that sets him way apart from his young contemporaries; we hear shades of Sonny Stitt and Leo Wright in Shaw's voice, but the young virtuoso stands definitively alone, offering a meticulous and care-wrought view of things.
McLean dives in with typical ferocity, and replies almost conversationally to Shaw's offering. Although rooted in the Coltrane school, Al McLean runs at his own frenetic clip, infusing a broad range of influences from Lester Young, to Dexter Gordon, to Gene Ammonds.
Both musicians are playing on early prototypes of the ARC brand saxophones, a contemporary manufacturer that is producing some of the finest hand made saxophones available.

Had such a great time recording this! Seems like yesterday!
Jaleel you sounded fantastic what horn and mouthpiece did you use in this video?
@@elliottwomack6706 Thanks Elliott. Long story, but the saxophone is a saxophone that was made by a company named Arc. They were trying to present a new saxophone called the "Rollins" saxophone. Unfortunately, it never came out. The mouthpiece is a Vandoren V16, which I know longer play.
master 🙏🙏🔥
I love this recording! It is on my Jazz Moments playlist on youtube, so i listen to it fairly often. As always, your sound is fantastic, and I love what Al McLean brings to the table, as well as, the rest of the band.
Hey Jaleel - You have a great melodic approach to this piece. You never deviated from the melody and each note was on the money!!
An alto sax player here and I am loving that tone on the alto sax!
Randy Cole, man you the best in delivering great jazz clips. amen to you.
I need to get practising..... Both saxes got some serious badass chops!
I just see Monk dancing in circles and enjoying these talented musicians. Long Live Monk✊🏽💪🏽
Good music in bad times!!!!Jazznet Spandau 2012, greetings!!!!!
Mr. Shaw is a great muscian from Philly... keeping that tradition going
The sound quality of this clip is superlative....Chapeau Monsieur Cole!
Man this is soooo nice. Thank you Randy Cole for bringing these clips to us with such style and respect for the music, and musicians.
a lot of parker's stuff on jaleel's playing... love it!
Al McLean - I dug it. Melody and all. F**k yeah.
Just Undiluted Brilliance.
Mr. Shaw moves constructively as he developes his solo and tailors it into a garden of resplendent beauty - so to say.
Al, as usual, always rises to the occasion.
The Band does its thing quite admirably.
Al McLean, saw him first time a few minutes ago in another video playing Impressions. And now this... He CAN PLAY!
A round for Jason Davis / bass and Bryn Roberts / piano. Wonderful.
Accurate , tasty with propulsion. Very Monkish.
Great Job!

‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ Jaleel Shaw - Alto Saxophone
Bryn Roberts - Piano | Jason Davis - Bass... and no damn drummer in sight!
Bad nuuz all the way! (And not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good!)
never mind , found it the "show more" above.
I think ARC is Al McLean's own brand of sax...the guy makes his own horns in addition to playing it so masterfully here...
a lot of kenny garrett licks on his other songs that have come through as youtube videos too
I might be wrong, but is this “Resolution” (A Love Supreme / John Coltrane) ?
Meguru Takagi You are sooooo wrong, don't you know your classics Meguru ?
I know… but it’s my frank impression.
They are very similar tunes melodically
terrible mix where's the bass
both saxes are out of tune
😬
