Bill Frisell - “It Should've Happened a Long Time Ago” (Solo)

[@arvingarrison1410]

One of Bill's finest moments. Guitar art in the service of music with a highly individual sound.

[@MrFrapana]

Bill Frisell est un poète!!

[@larrylynch8113]

I come back to this from time to time ; this is so elegant ; it reminds me some of the pieces of the dead man movie

[@connorgmcmahan]

Love the Paul Motian Trio album this song appears on. One of (so many) favorites in Bill's catalog

[@JensLarsen]

Bill Frisell Solo = Always gold! Thank you so much for posting these videos!

[@olivierarnold_]

goede smaak man

[@PaulMcEvoyGuitars]

I think that was the best Bill Frissell ever.

[@stefanobonoli8783]

Jens, he is unbelievable. And his use of DL4 looping reverse/speed functions astonishing. Real time orchestration. Master!

[@hospitalcleaner]

Dark, gentle, reflective. Getting blade runner energy

[@thosedamneyesofficialyoutu3102]

TOTALLY Vangelis Blade Runner energy. "Blade Runner Blues" comes to mind

[@photog_matt_elder]

Be sure to check out Ben Monder's "Amorphae" album, then. It's what I often listen to while reading sci-fi (including Blade Runner). Plus, Ben is a Proco Rat and Lexicon reverb user like 80's Frisell!

[@GrizzlePawz]

basically a microcosm of everything i aspire to musically. love this.

[@niloben659]

Defo, he's set the bar pretty high

[@Trombonology]

There's no place like the Frisell soundscape. Beautiful!

[@elmocaseus]

when I listen to these things my hearing, my heart and my intellect connect. I see with my ears, I listen with my eyes. Bill is a genius

[@JamesScottGuitar]

Doing what nobody can do better. So damn good.

[@MisterNiles]

Damn. I don't feel so bad. Even Frisell hasn't gotten around too modding his line 6 with soft touch switches. Those clicks infest my recordings. This is such a great video. Thanks.

[@tobysettle8595]

Bill always just takes me away! And, is that the coolest Tele ever?!

[@sooperheep]

It might be! I dig all his teles though, they all have something interesting going on

[@callumsewell3473]

Absolutely marvellous

[@josephtravers777]

Bill lives on the ethereal plain. Always a good feeling to meet him there.

[@matt75189]

Magic, endless, futuristic, creative, heartbreaking, melodic, intense and unbelievably good. Few words that comes to my mind while listening to this beauty. Thanks Mr. Frisell

[@harmvonlintig7146]

Wonderful. He is a kind of mad scientist being muscian. Like a scientist on musical emotions. Great stuff.

[@SubtractiveMoves]

I believe his dad was a chemist of some sort.

[@harmvonlintig7146]

@@SubtractiveMoves That fits.

[@written12]

Mad and experimental in the best way. The effects he uses never pushes the playing from its perch.

[@dwtn81]

Bill Frisell played in Detroit back in 2007. One of the best shows I’ve ever been to. He played a version of Marvin Gaye’s ‘What’s Goin’ On’. Sent chills!!!!

[@kcliftoncarroll]

Never noticed Bill using flat wound strings before. Wouldn't matter what he used, of course. Such taste, elegance, creativity and understatement going on here.

[@el0blaino]

Amazing, beautiful, powerful, rich, emotional.

[@sinnertrain7405]

I've been aware of him for ages via guitar magazines, but have only started listening to his music lately. This is extraordinary stuff. I love how he's not wed to merely jazz or other genres. He just seeks to create something moving and magical which requires improvisation to reach.

[@ГургенДжангирян]

Enjoy your journey !

[@sonicsuperantihero5048]

Hearing Bill Frisell with a T.K. Smith guitar, match made in heaven.

[@jannewborg2083]

I listen to this everyday. And its been bether and bether for every time

[@normandorough4359]

Bill is in my top list of guitarist for sure.

[@thai620]

Really fresh to hear this style of playing, beautiful.........

[@ohiosouthpaw]

[@donny_doyle]

Haunting, beautiful, Bill...

[@donkkong5551]

Love Bill!! He paints the best picture!

[@KhalDrogo76]

Bill is an American legend/treasure

[@markuselipka]

american or not...he definately is!!!

[@claytongillaspy8847]

How can anyone give this a thumbs down? They have to be tone deaf this is sublime period Bill always plays like this what a master there is nobody like him on the planet today nobody even close to his style a genius period

[@tommasocompagnini117]

Sublime

[@moceanworker]

18 thumbs down people have NO clue whatsoever. This is gorgeous.

[@88sublunaire]

Great Master in emotion. His art: poetry with six strings

[@fransboy2591]

His playing makes you listen to and digest each note and at the end, feel the time was well spent. Not many things in life do that to me!

[@barrysebastian9584]

One of my long time favs - Bill. Can’t wait to see Emma Franz’s film about him, if it comes to Cincinnati. I sure hope FBJ has some more recordings in the can. This was so... “Bill...” Love it.

[@norburybrook]

saw the film in London a few months ago. It's lovely. If you like Bill you'll love the film. for me a great balance between music and interviews.

[@borashen]

Barry Sebastian you can actually purchase the film now or rent it online as well! It's well worth it!!

[@gadymarcus5297]

[@sermorel]

Bill is a special musician. If you think you know enough music, you should listen to Bill's playing...And you will realize you're wrong....
