I’ve always thought of Julian as the next gen of Bill and here they are so far beyond fantabulous I am utterly astounded (for the millionth time at least)!!!!!
Bill sounds distinctly himself on any guitar - the tonal clarity, the melodic angularity, the peculiar note lengths, the little thoughtful pauses, the yearning scent of restraint.
To be fair, that's simply his style. It's characteristic of his collaborative style. He had the same body language last night at the Schubert with John Medeski and his own trio. And his synergy with his bassist is remarkable.
Talking strictly gear, the Collings guitar I'm sure is exceptional, but the heart of that guitar is the Ellis pickup. It was built around that pickup, for that pickup, because of that pickup, which is one of a kind extraordinary.
Bill and Julian together, is a concentration of knowledge and talent that shouldn’t be able to coexist in the same space. Surprised the building didn’t fold in on itself! Love the way they obviously appreciate each other’s playing. Fantastic.
The more I watch this video, the more I think we're SO lucky It was captured and shared. It's one of the most fascinating and moving moments in the latest years. And one of the best renditions of this tune. Thank you Julian, Bill, and the "other"Bill. Evans.
These guys performing together is a dream come true. I'm sure all of the superlatives have been expressed about these masters of the instrument, masters of jazz. I love their simpatico. They are locked in.
Hey check out their john zorn records together if you haven't I can't remember the name of them, zorn albums are often in latin and/or languages i'm not familiar with, but some of those records are gorgeous, cheers!
What a fantastic share. Thanks for these videos, Eric. The trust and communication between them is something to behold. Julian really knows how to bring out the most adventurous side of Bill. That grin...
this is not a performance... it is a conversation between 2 intellectuals
THAT'S how you do an intro! WOW
Can you please upload the tab for this song? Thanks!
And the outro!
Abraham Lincoln plays guitar!
Hi Ronquillo!
"Quit noodlin' around and play the damn tune!" Is what I woulda said if I was there!
Bill' facial joy listening to his pal is absolutely gorgeous
Bill is gorgeous, always
I agree
I’ve always thought of Julian as the next gen of Bill and here they are so far beyond fantabulous I am utterly astounded (for the millionth time at least)!!!!!
So incredibly brilliant. Reminds me of the interaction of Bill Evans and Jim Hall. Each responding to the other like they are one musical mind almost.
Completely agree! I think they should release this concert as an album. What a beautiful moment in music
Bill sounds distinctly himself on any guitar - the tonal clarity, the melodic angularity, the peculiar note lengths, the little thoughtful pauses, the yearning scent of restraint.
Best description of Bill's playing yet. "Melodic angularity" is particularly bang on
Fucking great observation
His guitar sounds way better than the other guy's...haha for sure. It's the "adult" guitar sound that I grew up with.
Lmao that kid cannot believe that his parents dragged him there 🤣🤣 4:40
This is jamming at the highest level
My god, they melt into one another
gorgeous. impeccable. remarkable for Frisell to find a guitar duo partner of comparable skill & taste.
My man bill rocking the adidas sambas what an absolute fit king
they're not adidas... 😕
Those are Gola Harriers.
@@rubbadubdub6543 @jbri1 my bad y'all they look like sambas idk shit about shoes
magnifique voyage , avec cette musique on peut attendre sereinement avant que son prince ou sa princesse n'arrive
They are defintely kindred spirits 👏
This is absolutely insane. Julian often shaking his head and half standing up in awe of his and Bills playing… its thrilling.
nervous system is overwhelmed
To be fair, that's simply his style. It's characteristic of his collaborative style. He had the same body language last night at the Schubert with John Medeski and his own trio. And his synergy with his bassist is remarkable.
the interplay between them is mind blowing... that outro?? what the hell did I just listen to
What an endorsement for Collings Guitars! Those tones are to die for!!
And that JHS morning glory on Julian's board behind him
Great guitars indeed but the tone is mainly driven by the technique of these masters.
Talking strictly gear, the Collings guitar I'm sure is exceptional, but the heart of that guitar is the Ellis pickup. It was built around that pickup, for that pickup, because of that pickup, which is one of a kind extraordinary.
Giants still walk the earth.
Bill and Julian together, is a concentration of knowledge and talent that shouldn’t be able to coexist in the same space. Surprised the building didn’t fold in on itself! Love the way they obviously appreciate each other’s playing. Fantastic.
Julian is sort of paying hommage to Frisel in his intro with his choice of voicings and Bill enjoys, beautiful ❤
Jazz as a dialogue. Sublime guitar conversation.
It's hypnotizing how they each leave space. .
I want someone who looks at me the way Bill looks at Julian.
I hope both of these people live forever. Probably the two guitarists who’ve had the most impact on me
Just a marvelous performance. Julian is the kind of player that has to make an old hand like Bill think, "the kids are alright".
Wow I am astounded at just how in sync the Julian and Bill were the last 30 seconds of this piece. Out of this world.
Bill’s joy at watching that intro ✨
Bill Frisell is having soooooo much fuuuuunnnnn!!!!🤩🤩🤩Soooo thrilled to see these 2 greats playing together...
Video of the year. What would be better than this dream?
Julian is my biggest inspiration
Gandalf and Frodo is magic
at 7:55 they're about to end and wind up basically writing a whole new tune. Just endless possibilities with these two between every note
this might be one of the best interplay the word has ever witnessed
One of my favorite Miles Davis records!!!
Probably the house concert of the last two decades!
These two breath music
The comping of Julian Lage is so fun, folk-jazz together.
Amazing duo
That was the most amazing 9 minutes of my entire week
Bill and Julian really need to do an album together. Maybe they have and I'm just oblivious.
Man, what a joy......the interaction of the two is an example of what a wonderful world we humans would be capable of creating together.
Oh to have the money and connections to book Bill Frisell and Julian Lage playing together for a private house concert…
The two greatest guitarists of all time... thank you for posting. If there is music in it's 'perfect' form, here it is.
this is a masterclass in music.
Sock game is on point for both of them.
Holy moments etched into music history.
so glad theres footage of this!!!
Duo of Princes
Is there a better advertisement for Collings guitars than these videos??? Absolutely astounding playing.
Two masterful guitarists. Both have signed one of my guitars and they couldn't have been nicer.
That’s great to hear. Both are truly amazing.
Among many other things here, I love the body English that Lage puts into his playing, along with Frisell's rapt delight at what Lage is playing.
The more I watch this video, the more I think we're SO lucky It was captured and shared. It's one of the most fascinating and moving moments in the latest years. And one of the best renditions of this tune. Thank you Julian, Bill, and the "other"Bill. Evans.

From the moment I first discovered Julian Lage, I've been waiting for this video! And I see you have a whole set! I'm thrilled!

Pure wellness, what a beauty!
Very fun version. I was happy to listen.
Ugh absolutely wonderful, this made me feel some type of way that I can’t describe 😁
Great stuff. Wish I could have seen more of Julian's fretboard.
Julian Lage, guy is on a league on his own. Crazy damn good player!
There's a young UK player called Rob Luft that you'll probably dig :)
this is so cool!!
This is just superb 👏👏👏 So many colors and emotions in their sound.
My mind goes Booom!
What a wonderful musicianship, highest art level.
really great. I agree with Bill Evans/Jim Hall comparison. Deep interplay!
Phenomenal✨
