May 11, 2008 - thats a characteristic of jazz improvisation

lou2cv Says:

May 11, 2008 - I know what is jazz improv ^^ But all players who really play "out" do it with a different way. And I personnaly like how Brecker do it, it does not sound like the other players

lou2cv Says:

May 11, 2008 - And I'd add in Stanley Turrentine solo, he did not play "out", but this is still jazz...

May 15, 2008 - Damn !! I have this record for over 10 years, and now I see the footage !! WOW Thanks so much - And it's rare to see Don Grolnick (one of the most underrated composers and pianists of all times + composer of Pools)

May 22, 2008 - This is the second half of the tune. Ernie's solo is in the first half. (Check out the other Four Sleepers Pools videos)

May 23, 2008 - saxophonia- i think that they admire his style of playing and are just gathering information to improve. The condescencion is not nessecary. Sorry to everyone this is a great song and i look forward to transcribing this one

May 26, 2008 - ut ernie sucks, there's no music in his playing, just a bunch of notes, a wankfest.

Jul 17, 2008 - Eb and flow eb and flow this is how music is played and this if the true essence of how you will feel when it is rockin will miss Stanley 'T. and Brecker man can they play

Aug 6, 2008 - Grolnick sure can write a killin tune.

Aug 9, 2008 - Man the sound engineers screwed up, that totally doesn't sound like Michael Brecker. This group is killing though.

Pickpocket86 Says:

Aug 23, 2008 - What are you TAlking about "Eb and FLow Eb and FLow"

Pickpocket86 Says:

Aug 23, 2008 - You are a retard..... Ernies Badass ... His pinky has accomplished more than you will in your life

invisiblekid14 Says:

Aug 24, 2008 - just because he's a badass, doesn't make him good musically . . . he's just playing a bunch of notes that don't mean shit in the creative musical underground . . . and yeah, his pinky probably has accomplished more than i ever will, but what's that really got to do with creative music?

Pickpocket86 Says:

Aug 24, 2008 - I think you just don't Understand what he is doing musically... because if you did you would not say that "he sucks" and if he wasnt musical than I doubt he would be where he is the jazz today.....He is not a free jazz artist he plays Jazz

lou2cv Says:

Sep 11, 2008 - I don't understand , sound is great here

lou2cv Says:

Sep 12, 2008 - I don't like his playing too but I don't consider he's bad. I'm just not used to this king of playing, but he sure is great, just not my cup of tea

Eyemayorist Says:

Sep 13, 2008 - huh? WTH happened!?!?!?

lou2cv Says:

Sep 16, 2008 - I just transcribed Mike Brecker's solo, it's really interesting to see what progressions he plays in his "out" phrases.

ParokyaSaCantol Says:

Sep 21, 2008 - now this is jazz..nice

me007963 Says:

Sep 21, 2008 - yeah, sounds tinnier than he usually does, like he was miked from behind or to the side or something, shame. awesome playing though

confoozled3737 Says:

Oct 16, 2008 - How long did that take you?

lou2cv Says:

Oct 16, 2008 - I transcribed both Stanley and Mike solos but I did not pay attention how long it took. I'd guess a bit less than an hour for the 2 solos but I'm not sure

Dec 1, 2008 - michael brecker so cool
