Such delicate beauty in a world drowning in junk
So perfectly said!
Must be referring to how people treated black people back then
Word
Such passion and fire in a world drowning in his 😓 😢😅!!!!!!!
yeahhhh
I bet im not the only one who feels lucky to be able to go back and enjoy this great music in a world where we're constantly bombarded with mediocrity!.
there's always something so classy about Oscar Peterson
This is the greatness of humanity on display.
true. people nowadays dont know how great this is... i mean the greatest.
How can someone be so ridiculously good? Joe pass and Oscar Peterson are legends!
My thoughts as well, so completely off the charts that every bit of so called "talent" in the music world today couldn't hold a candle to Oscar, seriously, but then add the other three in.
that's like your opinion man. But yeah, attentive practice and retrospection of what you are doing while making music are the way. @@wyliestivers2634
And now we have a new generation of guitar geniuses like Matteo Mancuso. We can’t forget the past but we must honour the future.
“How can someone be so ridiculously good”. ??
Countless hours after hour of hard work, learning, listening and practicing, year after year after year! And when it comes to people like Oscar & Joe, that special “touch from above” that sets them apart from the other 99% of great musicians.
And while most guitar & piano teachers argue against the idea of a “special touch from above”, as a guitarist myself I can say over the last 50+ years, I’ve seen and played with a few people that also had that touch. It’s like when the 4 year old child sits down at a piano, and just starts playing it, having never before even touched it. These few gifted people are at a level of playing, that 99% of people will never attain, no matter how much they play and practice! Don’t get me wrong, that’s NOT to say guys like Oscar & Joe didn’t have to work hard to get where they’re at. It’s just to say they have that ability to reach a higher proficiency than others, IF they put their effort into it.
Top o their game!!
I'm just stunned...but with a silly smile on my face. Better than drugs.
I'm a guitarist, and very often feel "stuck in a rut" so to speak with my practicing. But when I watch these guys it makes me want to pick it up and just dive right back in. Such inspirational musicians. Can't get enough of Oscar and Joe!
Have that exact same feeling.
I was thinking the exact same thing. The way that Joe Pass's fingers float over the fretboard with grace like a butterfly it is truly magnificient.
That's Now Just the point When you are Amidst between those guys who are not just playing the tunes no no What they are doing is being the music and totally in control of medium Jazz music and when you or I hear this I get A kick from it can't keep my feet still start tapping the beat
Hey you and when I am in the right mood which is usually between 9 pm till deep in the night and if the moon is giving me her blessing then sometimes wonderful things can happen! I want to give you an extremely important advice from now on!
EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU PICK UP YOUR GUITAR ALWAYS AND YOU MUST TAKE THAT VERY SERIOUSLY
AS YOU WELL KNOW NOBODY HAS 365 DAYS GOOD DAYS
SOME DAYS YOU MAY BE HAVING THE MUZE AND SINCE WE NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL OCCUR PUSH THE RECORD BUTTON OF THE VOICE RECORDER ON YOUR SMARTPHONE
MY MOTHER USED TO BE A FANTASTIC PIANISTE THE SWEETHEART TOUGHT ME WRITE AND READ NOTES AT THE age of 6 and she said
If you want to kill two birds with one stone
Record everything you play since No Shot Is absolutely a missed shot apart from learning from your mistakes it's 100 % certain that you catch these genius moments which you or I so seldom have
You should listen to Oscar peterson and Herb Ellis with A Contrabass player called Ray in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw full concert in 1957 with a very good looking young Oscar peterson and at the end there's a vocal surprise
Me too😅
Nothing like a little Oscar to bring peace and hope into your day.
The bass player is insane...perfect timing and intonation
I know! Such beautiful tone, too. Reminds me a bit of Gary Peacock.
Dave Young, I think.
😊
@@anthonychristie7781 Yes it is. Great Toronto sessionplayer. Everybody who comes to town wants him. Has a day job as a carpenter!
@@anthonychristie7781 Yes. Great Toronto session player.
I met Joe Pass and he played one of my first guitars for which he paid me a high compliment. When someone else who was there asked him: what advice he’d give to an up and coming jazz musician? Joe Pass said: “Learn to sing”. He’s was the greatest.
Joe told me, personally, a few years before his death, how he came to play with OP by accident, on a show evening when OP was late and he was asked by the management to fill in playing 'solo' for the crowd until OP arrived. He told me that 'instinct' and 'speed' were triggered, and arised as he kept playing with OP's trio...
Mom was an Oscar Peterson & jazz fan; got to listen to good stuff right out of the gate..! Grateful
Joe Pass is AMAZING.
Joe Pass. Excellence. No fans blowing his hair. No fake whammy bar tricks. No fake facial expressions. No glamour clothes. Straight to the point. Respect. Class. Art. We could use some of these values today. Oscar Peterson is also phenomenal. He plays the piano the it’s fullest extent. Some classical pianists don’t know how to make it sing like that.
Thank God no one on stage was hot. Who knows what a fan might have done...
I don’t know, his picking’s pretty fancy.
Classical pianists don’t improvise. Just play what is written.
@@gitaaa7740 Tell that to Mozart.
@@adamedmour9704 Mozart would improvise? On what piece?
Oscar Peterson a musical universe of its own majestetic dimension. together with another jazz genius. Their music will last forever.
I think it'll last a lot longer than that ;)
Who is next on stage....after this? Come on...Oscar Peterson began rippin it loose at the Sushi blues...then steppin it up even farther, playin off key deliberatly, then in a ragtime no one has ever playd since ww2...leavin Joe ,David and Martin in awe, because like allways they didn't believe what they heard and saw, knowing up-front Oscar allways has something special up his sleeve, there they walk of the stage, leaving the audience in disbelieve, but something magical has spring sprung, from non other than mr. Oscar Peterson!!
Oscar Peterson has been called a Master of the piano. A deserving tribute. A great Canadian. Thank you, Oscar for all the great music.
TWO OF THE BEST GUITAR AND PIANO PLAYERS IN MUSIC HISTORY PLAYING MUSIC TOGHETHER. WHAT A PLEASURE!
What other guitarist are you talking about, Barney Kessel ? ?
@@TheBladepolisher JOE PASS OF COURSE, THE ONE WHO PLAYS WITH OSCAR PETERON IN THIS VIDEO! DID`T YOU SEE HIM?
Grew up watching him a Dantes in the SFV on Monday night, guitar night, he was a regular.. In 1972 I could pay for two $1.75 drinks ($3.50) and watch him for hours. I was 19 and playing in the CSUN jazz band and gradually made friends with him. He invited me over when he bought a house in Van Nuys to help out and I hung out with him there about a dozen times over the next couple of years. Not only was he a genius, but one of the most caring and generous people I ever met. Don't believe me, ask Dave Paich, of Toto, I dated his sister Lorrie for years and I'm less than two years older than Dave, he knew. Joe warned me that a great jazz player must know every standard inside out, I never had the drive to do that. Make no mistake, his talent cannot be bought or attained by practice, ya gotta be born with it.
What happened to Dante's, IT'S A BANK PARKING LOT - PROGRESS! HE NEVER PLAYED THE SAME THING TWICE THAT i HEARD AND i LISTENED A LOT.
What I remember most is that he said was THERE ARE NO BAD NOTES.
Asiera exacto semPre igual,y los precios eraN esos ,ibamos cada 15 dias a escucharlo lo conte hace un rato, gracias por corroborar mi palabras DANTES A GREAT PLACE TO LISEN ,JAZZ.
EN EL 1987 TENIA UN CONSERVATORIO DONDE ENSEÑABA AHY SE RECIBIO UN JOVEN HIJO DE UNOS AMIGOS,JOE FUE UNA GRAN PERSONA,Y UN EXCELENTE MUSICO,ME GUSTO MUCHO SU RESPUESTA .GRACIAS
When I die I hope the good Lord allows me heaven cause Oscar Peterson is doing a Command Performance.
Martin Drew on Drums ⭐⭐⭐👏
The sound on this video is almost as fantastic as the playing. Every nuance comes through crystal clear with power and elegance. And if I could dress half as sharp as these masters, I'd be a very happy man.
The sound is good, but I think Joe is a bit out of the mix at times and I struggled to hear all his lines. Oscar was a force, beyond mortal, such an amazing band!
Oscar is like Water, Joe is how the Wind blows
This is PERFECT jazz - my brain can swim when I listen to this piano and guitar masterpiece...
Absolutely Gorgeous!🙋♀️❤️❤️ Orcar Peterson and Joe Pass!🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩
David Young is an underrated bassist who deserves much admiration as the other players of course
A fantasy of mine, if I had a time machine, would to have Mozart watch these guys for 15 minutes and then sit in with them, I think he would get it and have a blast!
You are so right.
What an awesome idea!! Perhaps, all three of them are jamming now for all we know; I hope so!!
I want download Joe's brain... omg soo amazing how Oscar and Joe are together...
As superb as each one of them are, that bass player is just so on the money. Love his lines.
Dave Young, I think
My guitar teacher told me if I wanted to learn about comping listen to Oscar Peterson!
I don't know of any other pianist who can play the piano as enjoyably as Oscar Peterson and play deeply and calmly.
Stratospheric levels of talent here. Amazing and inspiring.
That solo piece Joe plays about a third of the way into this video and the piano boogie Oscar concocts right afterward show two of the greatest musicians of our time at the height of their powers. Amazing!
the bass carrys unbelieveble
Voltaire:
'The most important decision you make is to be in a good mood.'
Joe and Oscar together is almost too much for the human brain to process.
Nobody plays music with so much feeling anymore, thank God for these geniuses! 💕💕💕💕💕💕
God Bless Canada
Out of three hundred thousand, only 86 do not understand music! this is good!
Oscar Peterson one of the most important piano jazz in América for last 50 years shows his perfomance with an experiente guitar jazz player as historic meeting on jazz music giants.
Wonderfull!
IF YOU LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE MOST INFLUENTIAL JAZZ PLAYERS FROM THE 21ST CENTURY I THINK PAT METHENY IS THE MOST INNOVATING GUITAR PLAYER IN EXISTENCE
All I can say is…oh my God! The whole band is smokin hot! This is a night to remember- geniuses on a peak Jazz journey, taking us along for a ride of a lifetime.
The mad groove the drum and bass are supporting these beasts with!! Absolute units on stage
Was at Hampshire College in mid-70's. Went to Hartford Civic Center to see Oscar and Joe and Sarah Vaughn and Basie Orchestra.
Even for a rock and roll hippie it blew my mind.
A decision you will never regret. Sublime!👍🇨🇦
Oscar was in a world of his own
Gog bless them all !!
Learned my foundations from Joe Pass books about guitar, big influence on me.
One of the greatest pianists ever!
The greatest !
I disagree, I think he was the greatest, and that includes Mozart and the like.
That’s about like saying wilt chamberlain was one of the greatest basketball players ever!
Every note Oscar Peterson and Joe Pass hit are gold 😁 WOW
Waouh, du grand, du très grand... avec Joe Pass, Peterson se repose sur lui avec une grande délicatesse...
Just pure genius.
Joe really had cojones of steel to get into the ring with Oscar. But then it turns out that he is completely up to this insanely challenging task, and easily holds his own. Wild and Stupendous!
Amen! In my humble opinion, Joe Pass is one of very few that could match Oscar's virtuosity! Just sayin'!
Lol? Joe Pass is the greatest jazz guitarist of all time... In my opinion anyway 🙃
Cojones of steel es lo mejor que le puede pasar al bilingüismo
@@hombrepollo Beats huevos of steel anyway. That would just be distracting!
I played with Herb Ellis and he told me that he thought Joe was the greatest Jazz guitarist.
I am overwhelmed and astonished by their mastery. True skill and genius and truly kind souls.
"truly kind souls." you don't know that. the rest is accurate.
Oscar and Joe rightfully get lots of attention, but lets not forget Martin Drew and David Young - world class, top notch musicians in their own right. This is a dream band.
Its kind of insane how good they are.
Three kinds of chords: Major, minor, and dominant - Joe Pass
Amazing performance. And what a gloriously fat bass sound!
8:09 Hey! I have not read far down into the comments, but want to say that Dave Young is the bass player and he not only is so alive, he is so fantastic to experience…absolutely awe inspiring and consciousness lifting. He plays often at The Jazz Bistro in Toronto. Thanks for making such a great show available. I really appreciate this!
How often does he play, do you know what nights ? I’d love to go see him
Saw Oscar in the 80s and it was glorious! Oscar, Duke and Ella on same stage. Jazz heaven!
Duke in the 80’s? He passed away 1974...
Players of this calibre are Timeless! They live as long as the ears allow.
The only Oscars worth watching ! Great stuff
Absolutely Cool
The world may have been simpler but the music certainly wasn’t.
Great musicians feed off each other and this was feast for the ages. I was wondering what year this was.
Oscar and joe. Git it now
You can't hear it but when they finish the first thing Oscar does is point to Joe and says "Joe Pass". Two titans of this world on stage together.
Smoking hot classy. My generation never displayed an appreciation for these exquisite musicians nor the genre.
Piano's virtuoso, but with musicality. Was a fantastic player at this mortal world...
At 35:25 starts a great trade off between OP and JP. I like the grin on OPs face as they trade licks. When these guys have fun, it lights up the performance.
If I had a time machine ❤
The entrance of Joe's first solo is awesome. Oscar hands him a great rhythmic melody and Joe picks it up and runs with it right away.
My guess after watching this: only musicians will give it a thumbs up. And most of the musicians watching will give it thumbs down rather than just give up. Pass/Peterson, two of the best there will ever be.
Preach the word my good friend, take it in Peterson/Pass you wont find ANY greater!!!!
I saw Joe and Oscar together live in the seventies in the "Konzertaula Kamen" near Dortmund in Germany. It was one of some highlights in my life. OUTSTANDING!!!
Oscar Peterson was a genius.
I just started listening and Immediately thought that this video isn't long enough!
Peterson and Pass..... Doesn’t get that much better, ever really..... Does It?
I was a member of a cultural arts music program when I was a senior in high school. Greatest memory and influence? Fellow student and piano virtuoso turned me on to Oscar Peterson. Thanks Joe!
They came together to play in Rio in the 70s…I remember…Gods of music…
The sheer amount of talent and virtuosity on that stage is stellar! Only Coltrane, Miles, and Wes joining in could top it.
Oscar was a model pianist for an old friend of mine. He has recently past away but this music by Oscar is still alive, and will be forever...
Oscar Peterson is the best pianist I have ever watched
Son unos fuera de serie expectacures
Me to!
Это просто невозможно поставить на паузу. Браво!
When God gives out talent gifts, he really is generous.

What a pleasure to Listen to those PHD of musicians that will never ever will be forgotten ❤
It is so much more enjoyable when one can Actually hear the bass player. In previous recordings it has been virtually non existant....
Joe really rocks. What a great colaboration!
The bass took it´s rightful place -- great playing, great mixing, and Oscar conducts.
Art at its best. Pure class.
Extremely rich and intelligent beyond normal consciousness. Both artists, Oscar Peterson and Joe Pass, flood their performances with a God-given endowment in the area of the central nervous system. Amazingly good "monsters"!!!
This was so good I watched the whole thing even though I clicked on it by accident, wasn't in the mood for music, and don't usually like jazz! This totally blew me away. Absolute masters!
“Clicked on it by accident -wasn’t in the mood --don’t like jazz -- totally blew me away.” It amazes me that not everybody in the world had that same reaction when being lucky enough to hear this music. Something happens to most people I guess that narrows their mind as they grow up and then their minds are closed and stuck in that narrow mode. Education should be focused on training children how to keep their mind open throughout their life so that they recognize QUALITY when it appears no matter what the form genre is.
This happend to me several times I heard just a little peace of Oscars music; I know that Frank Sinatra once said, that he got back to his hotel after being out for something, switched the TV on, saw Oscar Peterson trio in concert, sat down on the bed with hat and coat on and after one hour found himself still sitting there with hat and coat.
@@christophueberhorst7924 Thanks for that interesting piece of music history. It seems the Oscar bubble is a thing. I might have heard his name before, but I didn't know anything about him. I didn't watch this show because I felt any sense of obligation to the great names, it just turned out that I'd accidentally clicked on some musical ketamine and there was no escape. Oscar should come with warning labels. Is he even FDA approved? 😆
Doesn't get any better than this.
This is amazing. After hearing the porgy and bess album, I just have to find everything with these two masters in it.
Like Buddy Rich , Oscar was a miracle to the world ..pure genius !
Oskar, peterson, a, his, groups, plaennik, mousiki, tzaz, vere, mpioutyfoull, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
R.I.P. Oscar. Truly a versatile legend and one of a kind who left us a great legacy! I would love to hear what you are playing in Heaven!
Oh Doctor! If you a reminder what you might have missed of supreme quality for jazz improvisation here it is in all its abundance.
Really nice to read all the loving comments appreciating this amazing art, all players here are just... perfection.
Greatest musicians on earth! Second?
Joe has the greatest guitar face of all time
Formidable Oscar Peterson...
Two geniuses at work!
Who ever put this on her for me to see is my !!!! HERO !!!!! Best emoji compliment ever🥓
Very good!
Here we go Oscar peterson
