frisell is one of the most less-automatic improvisers that iv heard he is so no-auto that i never get bored when i listen to him . he is so conscious of what hes doing .
So very great. Bill is one of the greatest things to happen in jazz ever. You can tell it's him in two measures just like Monk, Miles, Coltrane, Sonny, etc. An absolute master. And Ron Miles is one of the coolest trumpet players and an absolute gentlemen. What a great sound this group has!
the same thing happens at 6:46, but it sounds like it was cued, you could hear the drummer hit some rim shots as if it were some sort of signal. i wonder why theyre playing that way.
Fantastic rendition of a classic tune. Bill's solo is whacked out in the usual Frisellian way--but sometimes the coolest stuff turns out to be what a musician does in support of another soloist. At 5:43 - 5:45, for example, Bill offers a bid of just three chords as structural support under Tardy's solo--but what a choice of intervals and voicing! Angular dissonance at its best.
Agreed. The unisons weren't very tight either. Listen to Warne and Lee playing it on television in 1958! So tight. Everything else about this is great though, and the creativity and interplay is the most important stuff when you boil it down.

Jazz on a Telecaster...thanks Bill for opening the door for the rest of us. You rule since day one hahahahh!
Lovely treatment of the 1949 Lee Konitz classic.
oh the irony. you see, you said he's so conscious when he solos but he's playing the song SUBconscious lee. thats a knee slapper right there.
(: increible version
i get the chill every time i hear this thing. sick playing. DAMMM GOOD FEEL!!!!!
Wonderful
Whatever Frisell touches, he turns into finest gold
Hey Ron, that's some great stuff you're playing - but we gotta go!
Nice guys!
i LOVE lee konitz, and i love it more when they play his compositions
Tardy is just so badass
A Separate Contrafact Tune Melody Based Of C.Porters "What's This Thing Called Love"??🎹🎧🎼🎶🔊
Kenny is cookin Tony is walking & Bill is having fun.
Really nice line from about 02:19 to 02:24
@JazzFanMan19
Yes it's exactely the same changes!
Uh how is it that no one else noticed at 5:41 bill and greg played the same notes at the same time...thats crazy

@JazzFanMan19 good ears, yes they are, with some subs
Greg Phillinganes on trumpet
Oh duh...haha, well I love this tune, Ice Cream Konitz is great too do you have a video of that?
Kenny at 4:58 picking up steam!
@JazzFanMan19 Yes, close enough.
this solo does seem to have more notes than usual for frisell

They know their shit. If you know what I mean.
8'08'' until 8'25'' sounds like "What Is This Thing Called Love" by Cole Porter.
+Los Pumas 24 That's because Subconscious Lee is written over the same chord progression as What is This Things Called Love!
Aso, "Hot House" by Tadd Dameron was written on the same chords as "What Is This Thing Called Love."
Although i enjoy Frisell's angular comping lines thought he overpowered the horn solos. Great ensemble nonetheless.
Agreed. Bill kept more of his solo volume throughout. Nice tenor solo.
Agreed. The unisons weren't very tight either. Listen to Warne and Lee playing it on television in 1958! So tight.

who is the drummer?
Hey great video I love this tune...Who's on guitar?...
Well comp Bill! Song has chords you know What is this thing called love. It's not Ornette Coleman.
