Pulls his sleeve back between notes without missing a beat.

[@TautologyTechSystems]

Great tone, great intonation, great playing. Jealous. Back to practicing.

[@doyouliekbass36]

Not only is this ridiculously good, but Mike Clark!! Man, this is awesome.

[@bobsachs3816]

This young man has it all, a great feel, time, great solo ideas. Always in tune, has total command of the instrument. Bravo!!! Bob Sachs - professional bassist in Las Vegas

[@jantoreeriksen]

His pitch are maybe the most perfect one I've ever heard on doublebass before. Good luck in life, Daryl

[@BASSHEAD89030]

I've re-watched this video so many times, and damn, it never gets boring, man.

[@AroldoLuvisottoNeto]

Daryl - you´ve got the seed of greatness in you. Focus hard, and live life, and you will become one of the icons. Cudos from Sweden :)

[@e4syybeatbox637]

This drummer is so good! The bassist and pianist are also crazy, big up!

[@pianOracle]

The pianOracle so greatly thanks his past self for having saving this rendition under his favorites... "Oh, THANK YOU!!! Past self..." & of course, thank you guys for these amazing pieces!!! Actual Proof is most undoubtedly one of my favorite pieces of all time.

[@meyerfishman8752]

Very, very, very Talented! Thank you for sharing.

[@bustabass9025]

When I was in eleventh grade I played trombone. The band director wanted me to switch to double bass. Told him to forget it. Fifty years later, and I'm trying to learn to play the double bass. Who knew?😕

[@jazzm]

This is GREAT very inspiring to hear you playin so well young man!

[@5magilla]

I refuse to believe that he's in the 11th grade

[@teelurizzo8542]

Damn, all tunes great, but really impressed by the last two the Shearing tune, that's a difficult head at that tempo and the Monk ballad at the end was really amazing the maturity in the soloing, plus in all track the great intonation, clarity and time feel.

[@stevejohns1135]

Thanks Tee That’s my son Daryl He’s been playing Conception for years He’s now on Immanuel Wilkins two CD’s

[@teelurizzo8542]

@@stevejohns1135 Thanks for the reply I'm gonna check it out, all the best.

[@m4x358]

Hi Steve. I became acquainted with Daryl by listening to Immanuel Wilkins and became a total fan! Discovering all this earlier stuff is a delight. As a young musician I cannot help but be inspired by his music.

[@idolbass]

beautifully played Daryl

[@TheRealNewBlackMusic]

OMG this kid looks like me when i was playing my brand x fender precision copy that i bought from the pawn shop in 1974. man it's uncanny. he's way better than i was though. this kid is amazing. makes me proud!

I was not expecting mike clark actually to be there

[@Chris-kr3vz]

2:00 LaFaro would be proud of this solo

[@hahabass]

And he knows not to do too much. Check out the way he ends Reflections. You can see him think about one last note or flourish and stops, and thinks better of it. Less is more!

[@ziruini5071]

This is some good music

He's auditioning for the Grammy Jazz Band. They make you give all of your info in the description and in the video so they can contact you if you got in

[@cuntmasterx4715]

I was thinking the same thing! Grammy Jazz Band? More like, Grammy make me a sandwich, I'm hungry.

[@RC_Cola2020]

Damn that old dude can sure play funky drums

[@christopherevans8732]

He’s the drummer…. Off of the album that tune is from, “thrust” by Herbie, mike Clark is one of the innovators of linear drumming. Do a deep dive on mike Clark and Paul Jackson, thank me later

[@ltravail]

Precocious. Wonder where the young man is now?

[@stevejohns1135]

Hi Itravail, Daryl is on one of New York Times 2022 Best Jazz Recording with Immanuel Wilkens Blue Note release 7th Hand and recently has been performing with Indie Rock Star Mac Demarco

[@ltravail]

@@stevejohns1135 Thanks for the reply. Shortly after wondering what the precocious kid is up to now, more recent videos started popping up in my YT feed. Thanks again for the update. I take it that he's related to you and that you're rightfully proud of the young man.

[@jacobjenn1]

Playing bass for The Lemon Twigs

[@FahadBrunei]

is there a particular genre of this jazz? like with the bass and piano?

[@MrOhWhatTheHeck]

It's normally called a jazz duo, but this could refer to players improvising on any other two instruments. don't think that there is a term used exclusively for double bass and piano jazz.

[@lowtone9]

It's not a genre, just a format and a very common one, the piano trio. Don't forget the drummer!

[@Funmodescondidas]

its a trio the genre is like a bebop
