Yes Lester young was his favorite, and he also used to put the cigarette in the side of his sax, when I was young,I used to watch him practice everyday, in San Francisco
All player's expressions, details and movements captured in image. I can watch and listen to this time after time and still experience something new. Thank you all
In this clip Brew is equal to Stan Getz and Zoot Sims and that's saying a lot. BTW, how lucky were Parisians to be able to hear Kenny Clarke play nightly!!
Sign of the times. It seems pre 1990's were when legends existed in nusic overall. Across all genres. Jazz to Rock. Singers and musicians. These guys played on another level. Today artists just "sound good (enough to play for a crowed and have a recording contract)...no one is "great" or "legendary" (or you think will be one day). Kirk Whalum. Great saxophonist. Played for Whitney Houston for over 7 years. But I don't think any one call him "legendary". There's no one most of us want to "play like". Legends have either retired or passed away.
Thanks for clarifying. I am sure you are right. The info about the location came with the video I found on the web. I can not confirm if there has ever been any Blue Note Jazz Club in Juan-Les-Pins aside from the jazz festival however it is well known there was a famous Blue Note club in Paris allright. I will adjust the info above
@@memzehni Nancy Moore,then changed to her maiden name after the split,Brew put the tune on the album ,Nancy with the laughing face for my mother ,because of her name and beautiful face
Brew certainly has an unusual way of playing, with the mouthpiece on the left side of his mouth and the way he holds the tenor at that angle. But I guess it worked for him.
He was a Great player, but only just seeing him my neck is in hard pain. Knows anyone what the story about that position is? Any kind of neck or spine problem or something? Certainly Lester young tilted his mouthpiece, but not so much his head, or nothing at all; he tilted the sax instead, like you can see here: th-cam.com/video/0DmtPvFa_W8/w-d-xo.html (btw I used to make all kind of tilted and akward positions while playing, so i got severe back pain, neck pain, carpal tunnel syndrome and such. I solved it pretty much following Alexander tecnique exercises,some yoga and trying to play the most equilibrated and relaxed possible)
Brew plays fantastic! As a sax teacher i can't condone his embouchure or his tilted head and puffed cheeks! When you play like Brew does you can do whatever you want! lol
All the greats created their OWN "false fingerings" or techniques. They were INDIVIDUALS... they weren't indoctrinated by assembly line institutions. They developed and formed... not really "taught" ...by playing and performing on the bandstand, under pressure, learning off the records and playing alongside great poets and story tellers
Every musician needs to make themself stand out in order to make people listen, so it seems. Maybe it is wild clothing, an odd shaped horn, prancing across the stage, or having a unique way of playing their instrument.The homage to Young and Gillespie with the head tilt and puffy cheeks would make today’s sax teachers cringe. Head up, mouthpiece aligned, breathe from the diaphragm (no puffy cheeks)…. Well, Brew seemed to play exceptionally well despite all those embouchure violations.
I am the daughter of Brew Moore,and am happy that someone put this on TH-cam, I'm the only daughter,he wrote the tune Marna Moves for me
He’s marvelous! Cheers!
All the best to you. Love this, your father playing with Lou Bennett. Really nice.
@@HopeIanHope Thank you
I want you know

How untrue!!
Seamus blake , tim warfield, jason Marsalis , Troy Roberts plus scores of others !!!
Among level it's the time and context that makes it legendary. The development in the modern. We live in the world after Martin Luther King.
Moore effects the "Young" stance.
Sans doute, Lou bennet n'etait pas assez connue, quelle merveille!
oui, très malheureux. il méritait certainement plus de reconnaissance.
As Brew once said. . . If you're not playing like Lester you're not playing right.
NOT NECESSARILY TRUE!
@@247hdjazz It´s not a thruth, it´s a tribute
@@247hdjazz Wrong about Brecker, Mintzer, Coltrane,Griffin, Rollins, some a thousands others
TOPSY!!!
Never heard of Brew! Played like Lester, cheeks like Dizzy................I guess you can't wrong with that 'combo'!
No, this style is different than Lester Young's.
magic !!
This is not in Juan-Les-Pins.... this happened to be at the famous Blue Note in Paris.

Yes ,it was in Paris, my mother nancy,Nancy, me were there with him ,then went to Demark after paris

lester young did it first
@@BSMElderScrolls Probably some issue with his front teeth.
@@andersrosen9588 no I'm his daughter no problems with Brews teeth
He'd get a fuller sound if he blew straight into the horn. But his articulation is excellent.
Phucking el , this is kicking.
Badd!!! 💯💯💯🇺🇸💯💯💯

Lester's position
That's correct. Holding that posture will lead to physical problems. But Brew sounds great.
😃🍀

Pres(Lester Young)held horn the same way,unsurprisingly.

Yes, but he's causing himself unnecessary problems. If you blow on the mouthpiece sideways you don't get the full tone from the reed.
Brew sounds fantastic despite the weird embouchure and poor recording.
