@@gorryman I feel it's fairly apparent that they achieved the sound they were going for. You can certainly dislike it if it's not your cup of tea, but there's no reason to go on insulting someone for how they play their instrument.
His name is Waqas Gulab. He is based out of Karachi. We are trying to get him set up to record. I'm sure he would love to add tabla to your or anyone's tracks for a small price. I think what he needs now is a mic. I bet if someone provides the mic he will provide the tabla :)
World music meets jazz. I enjoy it when musicians present a different take on the classics while still honoring the original content. I think Dave Brubeck would have approved.
Agreed! Five tries ain’t bad. I wonder what the song is called? Kinda jazzy. I wonder why it’s not famous. Interesting rhythm too. I’m trying to count along with it but somehow I keep getting out of sync.
That is one of the smoothest horns I have heard in so long, absolute smackaroo. Give my man Arsalan on the guitar something more to do, though, I'd lose my mind doing that one bar phrase over and over and over again, and we didn't even get to hear him solo :,(
Thank you for such high praise! The most challenging and underappreciated contribution to that song is the guitar. If the sax and tabla look good it is only because the rhythm section is so solid. Thank you Arsalan for making us look good!
He couldn’t do anything else. If he had, the bottom would have dropped out of the entire song. Someone had to keep the groove and structure together. Now, if there was a bass (or similar), he then could’ve soloed. Would’ve been nice to hear, especially if the guitar and sax could’ve set up a dialogue. For what it’s worth.
And this is why, my friends, I'm learning saxophone. Absolutely nailed. And as an Indian, I feel it blends SO well with our traditional music. Superb performance y'all!!
@@LeeRedfieldmusic Oh! That's interesting! Can you elaborate on how you've modified the horn? I'd be very interested to know. I used the think bends and glisses were possible on sax by changing the embouchure?
@@amj.composer I have not modified the horn. I think of what I am doing as playing jazz. If you want to hear real Indian music on the saxophone you need to check out Kadri Gopalnath. He played Karnatik...He modified his horn.
@@LeeRedfieldmusic I have returned after 4 months just to listen to your awesome performance. Also, I did check out Kadri Gopalnath! Truly mesmerising. I want you to check a recent composition of mine that got premiered for concert band. It is a blend of Indian and Western music and I think you'll enjoy it! It's the latest video on my channel. Thanks!
A friend sent me a video of a guy exhibiting various world percussion instruments. This reminded me of my favorite tablas player, Waqas Gulab. That then reminded me of this groovy little tune. I'm glad I found it again. I hope everyone in this video is having the best day today
I cannot fathom how the tabla player physically does it. I see his hands and hear the sound, but he's so fast and moves so lightly that I can't match the two.
Watch this that guy is nothing compared to this maestro. th-cam.com/video/_d0Y2flRlrE/w-d-xo.html This is also an excellent solo again that guy is nothing compared to this solo. It's long but if you are impatient listen to the last 20 minutes. th-cam.com/video/amGiqAw1cfU/w-d-xo.html Listen to both.
Super and good sound Ustad Waqas Gulab he is my tabla teacher he is a great table player he is great person and sir Lee redfield and Arsalna good sound wow amazing :-)
This moves Take 5 to the beautiful next level. Was a little maddening waiting for Arsalan's solo that never comes. All the same, this is groundbreaking. What a trio
Mark of great musicianship. All three players have done their home work and man not even Brubeck him self could say anything but Great Great Great Paul Desmond on also sax was the man. Joe morello on drums was and still is a legend. thanks for posting your version of this famous chart.
That's one of the best covers of Take Five I've heard - including the one by the pool band on my last cruise, where they changed it to 4/4. Because, you know, Reggae sounds kind of odd in 5/4...
Attempted a rendition of Take 5 on a 10th hand Alto at a house party in Jhb one year, oh, how I wish it sounded like this...it didn't, and I nearly ended up in my own pool sans Sax. Superb recording.
A rock instrument Telecaster, a jazz instrument Saxophone and a Carnatic classical percussion instrument Tabala. Now that's what I call a super fusion. You guys rock !!
Great! I've been a Brubeck admirer since I first heard Take Five on the radio way back in the '60s - eventually got to meet the man himself - what a thrill. This version deserves a lot of play. Keep up the great work!
So glad I came across this and pushed the play button. Each guy seemed to be immersed in their own zone but somehow they all brought it together as one. A excellent rendition of a great piece, would love to hear you play Autumn Leaves. Many thanks for posting.
Absolutely brilliant guys. I have heard dozens of recordings of this classic and yours just jumped to a favourite on the first listen. Well done lads. Well done indeed.
When the video first started I wanted to make some smart a$$ comment about the hippy white dude jammin' the sax, but you guys nailed the tune. Paul Desmond would dig it.
Wow, the algorithm decided this was a good time to dig up a gem. This is so damn good. Once in a while the algorithm gets things right, I absolutely needed to hear this.
Me encanto la interpretación y los arreglos que estos muchachos hicieron de esta melodía de Dave Brubeck. Una de los mejores arreglos e interpretacion que he escuchado.
Never heard this song with tabla. A beautiful version with an oriental flavor! Telecaster, alto sax & tabla. Rock'n'roll, jazz & ethno-... The three "whales" that hold the world together. 🤩 👍👍👍
these guys are tight, but that tabla player is operating on a whole different level
They usually do :)
If you mean overplaying like a madman and very whitely than yes this is the stiffest least swingy 5 I have ever heard
@@gorryman but the thing it’s it’s not supposed to be, it’s taken a swing song and adapted it to a total different genre.
@@gorryman I feel it's fairly apparent that they achieved the sound they were going for.
You can certainly dislike it if it's not your cup of tea, but there's no reason to go on insulting someone for how they play their instrument.
@@gorryman "overplaying"
Man on the drums woke up with a mission
aahahahhah!! yes!
That's an Indian instrument Called Tabla 🔥😉👍
@@Anti_terrorist_organisation Also Pakistani!
@@LeeRedfieldmusic well it is kind of same since Pakistan was a part of India before independence
It is categorized as a drum? Must be
Cheers to the Tabla player.
😇

....and thank you Ramachandra Bhakta for the comment. I see you play tabla. Praise from someone who knows the struggle is even more appreciated! :)
Unreal feel, this man’s out here making drums lyrical
Tabla players are some sort of crazy magicians.

Thank you Andy Knaster and congratulations. It looks like you just earned a fancy piece of paper. May it bring you happiness and wealth.
"world music"?
@@turnipsociety706 You can call it that if you like....it is perfectly legal. :)
@@turnipsociety706 I agree, Turnip 😉
I look at it the same way, terrific observation there Andy K. Thanks to the band. I'm digging on that guitar, Nice.
It would be cool to see take 1-4 as well! Really cool that you guys got it on the 5th take!

I got an LP where they actually did five more takes, the rhythm becoming even more strange...

someone has to be the metronome in this song, and it's a guitar player.
The guitarist was doing the Dave Brubeck piano 5/4 rift from the original recording. He did the same phrase over and over too.
He couldn’t do anything else. If he had, the bottom would have dropped out of the entire song. Someone had to keep the groove and structure together. Now, if there was a bass (or similar), he then could’ve soloed. Would’ve been nice to hear, especially if the guitar and sax could’ve set up a dialogue. For what it’s worth.
@@jamesstewart1129 True! the guitar was the backbone.
Playing the drum and bass part at the same time. Unbelievable.
That's how you play the Tabla ;)
I can't believe Jesus plays the saxophone so well
You can believe now
@@cactusowo1835 Nah.., that would be Sonny Rollins.
Well he's had more than 2000 years of practice

Enough space for every instrument to sing its song, beautifully balanced. Thank you 🙏
Thank you for listening :)
@@LeeRedfieldmusic
Yeah right, listening is the key to play in tune.
@@ThomasJLarsen You have a good ear. :)
Hello Mark
Takes skill to improv in 5. Love the look on the tabla player's face when he liked a phrase
Can't take my eyes of tabla player. Hypnotizing. I've only missed a little walking bass for guitar in B section. Thanks
Brubeck would be very pleased to see/hear this!
And what about Paul Desmond, hein ?
@@maxularades9276
I was just about to ask that question. ;-)
The fuck are you to speak for the dead?
@@wintersummers3085 He must be Andrew Wiggin.

Lee the you the Lord of Saxophone, amazing track very refreshing track and feeling like a walk in the clouds.🏔☁
thank you very much! If i am sending you into the clouds it is because of the great musicians with me :)
I never drop any likes on youtube... this video deserved one
thank you :)

That was so satisfying! Love it! I'm sure Dave approves.
I adore the Oriental mode and mood of the improvisations.

Whoa, this is a super vibe! How come I've never seen this before, cmon TH-cam algorithm I watch so many jazz vids!! Fantastic guys!

My favorite take five! The best,
It seems the algorithm put me in the "super cool and chill people" category for it to show me such a rare and dope track.
All of them are interacting with each other. Great JAZZ
That's one of the best covers of Take Five I've heard - including the one by the pool band on my last cruise, where they changed it to 4/4. Because, you know, Reggae sounds kind of odd in 5/4...
@E. O. It was surprisingly good - though I wish they would have kept it in 5.
holy crap! sometimes the algorithm hits bullseye :D awesome version. speechless! Thank you so much :)
Tabla player: kills it
Trap/rap artists: WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!
INDIAN GANG, this is perfect, jazz Indian fusion. The drums remind me of the gurdwara but its also got jazz. Pure perfection
@MichaelKingsfordGray why, because he doesn’t care about his image online?
@MichaelKingsfordGray I will give you props, you have responded to every commenter that isn’t using their real name... That’s legitimate dedication
@SheerForce14 Fancy seeing you here.
The last I heard was "Shakti" Guitar + Tabla Jazz,
And now with Sax + Tabla Jazz, Love each nanosecond of this jam. Keep bringing more.
Damn, that guy can do so much on just those two little drums
Attempted a rendition of Take 5 on a 10th hand Alto at a house party in Jhb one year, oh, how I wish it sounded like this...it didn't, and I nearly ended up in my own pool sans Sax. Superb recording.

대단하세요. 자주 와서 보겠습니다.
감사합니다
Love that bass drop at the start by the tabla player! Very unique version, great work.
What an amazing kind of ethnical performance!
Super cool. No neckstrap, sit indianstyle (no pun intended). The percussion was excellent. I liked the whole jam!
Not. Those. Kind. Of. Indians.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894 Really?, Wow, good thing you told me.

Thank you!
My mom and I are fans of playing with musical structure and overall sound. I know she's going to adore your performance!
Brilliant! Enjoyed it! Thank you, guys! Nicely done. Cheers from Moscw, Russia
Just incredible. Not an over complex melody, while blending the jazzier elements with ease. AMAZING!
Wow! This is one of my favorite songs. I added your version to my main playlist along with Dave Brubeck's.
Great music. Thanks again.
So glad I came across this and pushed the play button. Each guy seemed to be immersed in their own zone but somehow they all brought it together as one. A excellent rendition of a great piece, would love to hear you play Autumn Leaves. Many thanks for posting.
Sooper. At the start I almost relegated it to another mediocre version of Take 5. But the magic took hold at around 2:00 onwards.
Great musicans, and unique style....good luck boys......Ireland
Just goes to show how universal music is.
This is good. No, it’s very good! Enjoyed listening to it. Tabla player is great.
The sound of drums is very nice.

Yous cheeky f***s! I have listen to Take 5 from amatuer xaphoon player to piano pros but you guys take the cake. Job well done guys!
I'm out of words. ♥️✨
One of my favourite ever pieces of music.
Completely blown away by the arrangement.
Absolutely brilliant 🙏🙏🙏
I love how every instrument really shines in this song and you guys replicated it super well
Not sure how I ended up here. Truly glad I did. Bravo.
What a creation! Thanks for sharing this.
