Barney Kessel Orfeo Negro Medley

Barney Kessel Orfeo Negro Medley
バーニーケッセル

[@Kylerjguitar]

One of the most impressive guitar performances ive seen

[@gabri3l367]

Barney Kessel unico e per sempre grande. Grande chiarezza dovuto anche all'uso del suono secco. Basta con gli effetti che usano molti chitarristi di oggi. Ascoltate e riascoltate i grandi del passato.

[@pottedmeat42]

hearing this makes me glad to be alive

[@nilambe08]

What a superb player! What chords and rhythm. Very enjoyable, thanks.

[@DrJonesJazzMore]

what the hell, this man is a a beast

[@HMJohnsonGuitar]

I love this, I bought my first Kessel LP in about '73 .

[@neymacieloliveira5265]

Emocionante! Berlin Festival Guitar Workshop de 1967 com participações de Baden Powell, Jim Hall, Buddy Guy e Elmer Snowden. Nunca editado em CD.

[@NAFTALI2]

In the middle of this medley, someone is giving Jim Hall smelling salts, since he had to faint at what Kessel is doing. I watch it and come damn near fainting--it is so extraordinary and so far beyond what anyone was doing then--or even now.

[@NAFTALI2]

You're right. Didn't mean to sound like I was denigrating Hall, just trying to elevate Barney's spontaniety by saying that even another master would be amazed.

[@stratmister009]

Orfeo Negro is one of my favorite tunes and this version played by Barney is one of the best, but I can only enjoy it half way through before they pickup the tempo to get into what I guess was "hip" in the days when this was recorded.

[@bobdownes162]

Became a Circus act.

[@selfwitness]

The uptempo piece is a different song often played together with Orfeo Negro (Black Orpheus). The second song is Samba de Orfeo (Orpheo) also called Orpheus Samba.

[@mrlaa1]

Ah love this song + this guitarist = this is a treat! :)

[@ku2163]

The concert happened during the Berlin Jazz Festival in Fall 1967, same as the duo Barney K. with Jim Hall " You stepped Out of a Dream" . There has been only one duo occasion! in their lifetimes, they both told me.

[@killerob666]

WHAT A SUDDEN CHANGE OF RYTHM! HE IS A JAZZ GOD!

[@jkip44]

What a prolific player. The Best!!!

[@Jingles466]

oh man, Barney is always hitting the "right spot"

[@TFPainter]

Great stuff, thanks!!

[@TheJofrica]

Sequence from 4:03 to 4:10, just amazing!!

[@leeron3]

The fast song is Samb De Orphue I Believe. Joe pas and Herb Ellis version is called Carnival. It's on they're Two for the Road album. It is awsome! This is great too, thanks so much fo posting!

[@Moshe13us]

Still the best in this world and in any other one (as sais George Harrison) Mo

[@stratmister009]

Does anyone know what guitar he's playing? It's got great tone, lush, wall of sound! what make is it?

[@thatunit995]

the first part is just amazing

[@MrJuniorviola]

A musica que ele inicia chama-se Manhã de Carnaval de Luiz Bonfá do filme Orfeu

[@anastasio513]

i hear what you're saying,but great improvisers basically compose on the spot as opposed to others, who just blow over changes. barney was a king of ballads,a monster in the studio and his sense of texture improv-wise is very interesting.but in my opinion,jim hall said more in less notes.there are merits of both types of playing,but jim is probably the most expressive and MUSICALLY advanced improviser on our instrument.playing fewer notes with intention doesn't indicate a lack of adventure!

[@Pickinbuddy]

@alexdroogie100 Gibson still makes this pickup on special order! The only thing they changed on it (slightly) is the impedance, making it work better with the powerful amps of today.

[@anastasio513]

i dunno...jim hall was probably like...i could have said the exact same thing with half the notes, took a drag from a cigarette and thought of other ways to substitute V13b9 chords. i love barney...but jim just knew what to do and there was no filler! barney knew where he was going but surprised himself with the passing tone runs. jim knows what will be hip three measures before he plays it.

[@JRR951]

Does anyone know if there is a studio version of Kessel performing this piece? Beautiful!

[@pierrechaouat]

What's the model of Barney's guitar? Not his usual ES 335...

[@Sin2-4-life]

Killer Kessel 👌

[@JamildnLima]

[@Cacpetine]

@MrJuniorviola ...like we didn't knew that...

[@JackOrion0670]

@4578a Naw I don't think there is a next. Barney is pretty much the shizzle..

[@funnylittlehorn891]

Barney at his very best!

[@NAFTALI2]

Okay, well that was just impossible. I saw it but I don't believe it.

[@GuitarMaster2410]

01:57 entra la samba

[@liezerodrigues]

Bossa Nova

[@GuitarMaster2410]

Bossa Nova es lo anterior, la "Manha de carnaval" y a partir del momento siguiente, concretamente es la Samba.

[@neymacieloliveira5265]

01:57 entra samba de orfeu , antes era manhã de carnaval

[@JuanTigreRocks]

Maurice Ravel on bass

[@miarose4581]
