    Kenny lived across the street from me in the 70's and would come over often. His then wife Michi. Always complain to my mom. He don't pay attention to me, all he does is play his damn guitar. LOL. Really nice person.

    Love the way he picks out the melody on top of the chords. What a tasteful player. And much underrated I feel.

      Maybe he serves so much more adoration. In THAT respect he's underrated. But, he's on top, always been on top, and every guitar player I know, whomever else they know, Kenny is on that list. ALWAYS. Kenny is the guitarist that made me want to play Jazz.

    Surely Mr. Burrell worked as hard as any master artist to perfect his craft. But his magnificent sense of phrasing must certainly be a gift. It must be. It is his genius. And the pleasure he engenders in applying it identifies him as truly one of a kind.

    His balance is just, impeccable really. Every thing he does makes sense, even when he gets more into the technical spectrum. Life assumes new meaning filtered through the concepts of his guitar work. God send us more musicians of his caliber and taste!

    Kenny Burrell taught a jazz class on Duke Ellington when I was at Ucla in the 80s. He was very humble and unassuming. We had no idea of who he was until a guest speaker talked about him. He's an awesome guitarist.

    Thanks for this! Great stuff!!! None better than Kenny Burrell.
    Say, I see by the credits at the end that this was produced for public television by the local PBS station in San Diego. 170 million Americans use public broadcasting. Plus YOU and everyone else who watches this! Without public TV and radio we wouldn't have this treasure nor all the thousands of hours of other wonderful stuff. Keep supporting public broadcasting... and let your senator and congressperson know, so they will.

    Kenny is all class. I used to tend bar at Elario's in La Jolla while in college. I saw the best of the best. Bob Magnason and Sherman were with the "House" band. Bob(?) Plank on drums too. Kenny treated everyone with such respect. I even invented a drink (non alcoholic) for Bob Magnason called..."The MAG"..LOL..Great times great memories

  • @RaiderEleven

      I know what you mean dude I could have sworn there was another instrument playing the melody but it was just him. I've played guitar for 11 years and I can't do that. I'm new to jazz so it's exciting discovering all these amazing instrumentalists. I mean Burrell is making his guitar freaking sing here with just his hands.

    @brunomele3444 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fraseado monstro! O timbre desse violão de aço dele é animal também, e a guitarra então... Sem comentários, ele passeia pelo tema que é muito louco, diga-se de passagem. Lembro que assistia ao Club Date quando era transmitido na TV Cultura. Se não me engano, depois do Kenny veio o Joe Pass (solo e com esses mesmos músicos da casa, que são excelentes também). Saudade, ao mesmo me sinto privilegiado em poder curtir isso novamente tanto tempo depois. Tenho tudo gravado em VHS! Valeu!

    I had no idea Kenny played an acoustic guitar. I haven't heard a ton of his recordings but still, I'd heard enough to think I knew he was playing an electric.
    Anyway, the opening of this version really made me hear Miles' tune anew. There's much to be said about hearing jazz chestnuts horn-free.

  • @dingoswamphead
    @dingoswamphead 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What wondrous fingers, like long spider legs! And to think he is his own rhythm guitarist! Kenny wrote the jazz blues dictionary with Grant Geen, and we are so lucky that he is still trailblazing. Great work from the 'Ssons', too.

  • @ghairraigh
    @ghairraigh 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great Artists don’t stand pat, and Kenny Burrell is no exception. Surely he has been playing the tune since the late 1950s. Here are a bunch of surprises in a new arrangement, first off, the opening on acoustic guitar. Notice how Kenny interjects alternating bass notes on the ‘and’ of one and four (D, F, starting @0:15) into the original Trane/Cannonball two-part background figure at the top, with expanded harmony. He manages to continue that groove as he used to do under Miles’ melody, but it is now played up an octave. There are some sizeable stretches over 5 frets required to add the melody to those voicings, but they are so gracefully and smoothly done. At Bar 10, Kenny plays the melody note A over D7#9, and then plays a D13 chord with the melody note D on top in the last half of the bar. After his solo, Kenny continues comping for Bob Magnusson… and then magically reappears with his Gibson Super 400 to finish the tune with a more aggressive solo. Have you ever - EVER - seen anyone trade eights with the drummer on this tune? Kenny plays his newly arranged head on the out-chorus on electric guitar, and, with the slightest turn of his body toward Bob Magnusson, cues the thrice-repeated last line of the melody and the gentle ritardando* at the end. Kenny has wonderfully re-imagined and revitalized “All Blues” - rather than playing it the same old way - and it is all done, BEAUTIFULLY.
    Kenny ends the set with a brief reprise of "Do What You Got To Do" from his album ‘God Bless The Child’.

      ghairraigh You are the first person i've seen mention the album God Bless a Child. As Mr. Burrell does not do bad stuff, lol, my favorite albums, of his, are Midnight Blue, Have Yourself a Soulful Little Christmas and God Bless the Child. Wes Montgomery, is by no means, chopped liver, but the sound of Kenny Burrell's guitar playing captured my eardrums first and I have been hooked as a fan. So, for me, it's Mr Burrell (1A) and Wes (1B) . That's how I roll.😊

    I never heard Kenny play "All Blues" on an acoustic guitar before, or switch guitars in the middle of a tune. The acoustic really "speaks" and feels so different. I guess he started the tune off on acoustic to keep the set going. He switches to his Gibson Super 400 electric guitar during the bass solo.

  • @rayjr62
