Eddie Harris puts to shame all MODERN saxophonist today! A monster player that was millenniums away from everyone. Up there with another Master, John Coltrane! ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for your comments. Eddie was a master trailblazer🙏🏽🙏🏽. Keep on keepin’ on and be inspired!! Please remember to transcribe to the channel😉🙏🏽
This was my definitive take on Oleo: I stumbled on Excursions in the mid-80s aged about 14, before I'd even heard of Sonny or Trane! Thanks for the fabulous transcription!
A rhythm solo for the AGES. Unbelievable virtuosity and swing. Not one note flubbed. This cat has been overlooked because of his commercial successes (well deserved).
Thank you so much for your comment. From what I have transcribed and researched, it is definitely among the most incredible indeed.

Eddie Harris is unsung hero. He shows so many possibilities within Rhythm Changes. Many contemporary players think they are too old and overused to bother with but not Eddie.
Thanks for your comments. Eddie shines a light on the many possibilities for the rhythm changes. In my opinion, this solo serves as a reminder to all of us to keep on keepin’ on…..🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Keep on searching…. And, it was recorded so long ago too….
Thank you so much for your comment. It is indeed(!!). 57 years later and still amazing. I believe that this solo is his “Rosetta Stone” that helps us to better understand his complete concept put to practice. Did you compare and contrast this with Giant Steps and Tampion? Keep on Keepin’ on, be inspired, and please remember to subscribe and spread the word about the channel🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
This is what I mean when I say SOUL. HE IS NOT JUST PLAYING A LOT OF NOTES LIKE MOST DO TODAY AND THINK THEY ARE PLAYING BLACK JAZZ. YOU GOT TO HAVE SOUL.
You are most welcome🙏🏽. Thank you so much for your comments. He is definitely all over the horn indeed. In my opinion, this solo has to be the Rosetta Stone for his style. Please take a look at the latest solo over “Tampion” a contra-fact on Stella. Please subscribe to the channel and spread the word🙏🏽🙏🏽😉😉.
I'm going to learn it.Having listened to much Eddie, Learned his 4/5 interval innovations on Tenor, Unlike when a teen with bird and stitt solos,I'll be inside a foreign planet with a direction pointer ,led flashlights instead of blindfolded..boy ..nice tempo.He never faltered!

Amazing! Very good work! I got to sit next to him on a flight from Denver to LA in I think 1990 on my way home from some lame ass rock gig in Aspen. We talked about chicks and all kinds of stuff. Very nice guy. I worked out of his book called "Skips" for awhile (or was it "Steps"). I think that's what it was called. It had a yellow cover. The first page was called "Eddieisms". It was a list of 10 or so rules to go by one of which was that if you're not working , don't drink alcohol waiting for the next gig to come in. He said to drink milk. Very cool guy.
Thank you for sharing the amazing story with all of us here. I appreciate it very much. Btw: Did you listen to his comic relief record “The reason why I’m talking s**t?” (Atlantic). It’s a great display of that humor you so talked about. Skips is great!! And the etude that features all of the famous quotes is a must “shed” item for all. Please remember to subscribe and keep on keepin’ on🙏🏽🙏🏽 Stick around for more amazing solos to come!!
@@grammarp3263 Somehow I mistakenly quoted the wrong book(!!). The etude I was referring to is the subject of a completely entire book. The book’s name is Jazz Cliche’ Capers by Eddie Harris on Highland Music Company. The cover is blue with a picture of Eddie on the front. This book is highly recommended!!
Epic transcription! As a tenor player, it hurt my brain a little to watch in concert pitch, lol. But I love all the commentary at the extreme level of detail in your work.

Amen🙏🏽 I share the same sentiments with you. Eddie has left us so much. And, I still have two more solos to share with you all that display the same elements in a slightly different way. My objective in this playlist is to bring to you all some amazing solos. I want to thank you and everybody for their incredible comments, stories, and great vibe. Please spread the word, Subscribe, and help me bring to you all more incredible solos. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😉
Amazing! I never would have guessed this to be Eddie harris at a blindfold test. not familiar with him playing sheets of sound alla Coltrane. Freedom Jazz Dance is what i usually associate with Eddie Harris; such an amazing composition using 4ths.Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for your comments. It is certainly amazing indeed. He’s really leaves us a Rosetta Stone of Eddie Harris vocabulary with traditional and modern elements. Did you compare this solo to the Giant Steps and Tampion solos yet? Thanks for your support and spread the word! Please subscribe so that I might bring more amazing solos to light. Be inspired and keep on keepin’ on🙏🏽🙏🏽😉😉
Thanks for your comments and support🙏🏽 Since this is a Rhythm Changes, it is a known practice to play the “Blues” over the A section. Upon closer inspection, you will also notice that the rhythm section harmonically supports Eddie’s conscious choice to play this way. With so much harmonic territory covered during this solo, the choice is the most logical one. And, the decision even supports the idea of “tension and release.” Eddie knew what he was doing because it’s his trademark element in his vocabulary. I believe that the “searching” you are referring to is extremely subjective but could be supported during his solo chorus playing. But, as improvisers, we are all “searching” for the right note….🙏🏽 There is so much “Genius” in display in this solo that it becomes his “Rosetta Stone.” Please compare this solo to every single Eddie Harris Solo there is….. Remember to subscribe and support the channel🙏🏽🙏🏽👍😉

Wow, I had no idea. Now I need to go back again and listen to that Scofield album ("Hand Jive", E Harris is on it), plus the Eddie Harris album from 66 ("The In Sound") I bought to hear his version of "Freedom Jazz Dance" because I like the version by Adams/Pullen ("Sophisticated Alice"), which rips it off brazenly, so much.

Thanks Neff for getting me into Eddie Harris !! ... he is what Miles would call 'a muthafucka' .. the ideas around 1:11 .. 1:25.., 1:39, .. it just goes on and on, the intense and well-executed ideas, . this guy must have been a SERIOUS student of ALL music, and his gear .. I mean, that leather jacket must have been what inspired Tony Williams lol ... wow !! but his sound, he is on a heavy reed, like Coltrane , and I start hearing 'trane more and more as we go on .. I would say he is a disciple of 'trane with exceptional inner power ... Thanks so much for your research and musical knowledge you have given ! ... ** WAIT ! on second listening the verses around 3:15 are being SUNG in the throat and PLAYED simultaneously, like Herbie at the Piano ... !!!!! This is INCREDIBLE !
Out of all the amazing comments that I have received, this one has to be the most touching…. You are most welcome… I’m so happy that I can share the knowledge and love with each and every one of you…. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Eddie is happening in so many ways and I completely agree with you on all those levels. What is even more striking to me is that he echoes all these ideas in each and every solo that he recorded in this particular hard post bop manner. I still have to repeat myself in saying that this solo is the Rosetta Stone of Eddie Harris. Be inspired, keep on keepin’ on, and spread the word…. I will update the channel with one more Eddie Solo in the same vibe….. Then I will focus on some other heavy cats…..

I had a friend who played alto (very well). In the 80s he was living in Watts. He recalls going to this club and sit in with this "tenor player." Afterwards, he tells him “you sound just like Eddie Harris.” Eddie laughed and replied “that’s who I am.” Later, Eddie invited my friend to play more gigs so he could focus more on piano. They only played a couple of times after that. They couldn’t make any money.
