Donna Lee by Grp All Stars

[@julesroussel3]

Growing up, I didn’t think it got much better than this. As it turns out, this is one of the most virtuosic jazz bands of all time.

[@claudiobergamaschi3310]

Il CD è il "GRP all-star BIG BAND" del 1992, 12 tracce, 20 super musicisti, incisione GRP favolosa, da avere assolutamente!!!

[@JSGregg]

I love the classic Charlie Parker chord changes and the creativity with instrumentation. Solos were phenomenal, as expected.

[@tomas.cabado]

Best piccolo solo ever.

[@nordhill92]

Gary burton was absolutely burning!

[@AbelEduardo]

e Gary Burton? divino! explendido!!!!!

[@nachosax]

Grandes musicos y grandes seres humanos, que son capaces de expresar de una manera muy refinada lo que son y lo que somos los seres humanos. Mucho Arte en todo esto, Felicidades!!!

[@P1mpdada]

most amazing vibraphone ive ever seen in my LIIIIIIFE!!!!1

[@otrolalique]

BARBAROS!!! impecables... bellos seres tienen que ser para que les salga todo eso...!!!

[@groutdave]

Great stuff. Burton is transcendental; catch him live at any price, folks. Weckl's groove and mullet are in full splendor -- I wonder if that massive plumage helps him swing so hard.

[@claudioleandri5679]

FANTASTICI, SEMPLICEMENTE FANTASTICI!

[@MrJazzologist1]

'All Stars'. So right. great soloists and nifty arranging, big band style. A feast.

[@MrJazzologist1]

Love this concert jazz with these great soloists and rich tone-colour.

[@stithra]

Gary Burton..wow,what a man!!

[@xstarchick101x]

awesome afroo hahaa x he is absolutely outstandingg.

[@JazzBass7]

The guy on the xylophone is AWESOME!!! I used to hate them because my band teacher in high school was/is a douche. But this guy is just too good and I have to respect it and love it as well. And I just LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE how smoothly the horns back up the flutist during his solo from 3:41-3:45. It's just so lovely man. 5 stars!!!!!

[@pniiice]

Eddie daniels' ear is just beyond compare.

[@wcpumpa]

Gary Burton is the best!

[@espr7564]

All these dudes are awesome !!!

[@777morgan3]

NELSON RANGEL ON PIC

[@Vayshen]

Usually big bands aren't my thing but man...'been listening to the GRP stuff here on youtube and this is great!

[@dimitriskaraganis]

Rangel kills in piccolo flute!!

[@bluekinglion]

This is the second time I've had one of those "I wonder" moments about instruments used in jazz and had this song crop up. Last time it was jazz panpipes!

[@SOULJAMGO]

wonderful arrangment&the best piccolo sole

[@Taxi58]

...wow! Check out that vibraphonplay! Performance like this makes me happy and jelous. Jelous in that sence that i'd love to be in a band like this! ...wow!

[@Grandolin]

I was just thinking the other day "Bebop piccolo would be AMAZING!" And this proves it. Heck yeah.

[@chiko4m]

Hey!! I just recognized Ernie Watts playing 1st Tenor!! I love his playing.

[@nikkisamodio3464]

that was just a fantastic rendition...i hope that they do another album soon!!!

[@groutdave]

Nice poodle mullet on Weckl!

[@w6hu]

OMG... Fantastic!

[@DrummerInExile]

yup, damn pure amazingness.....Patitucci burns!!! Absolutely amazing playing...

[@LMmccallL57]

This is amazing! My clarinet skills couldn't ever be this good, not even in my wildest fantasy. I guess that's why it sits on the shelf. LOL!

[@XM.rippleeffect]

great music and Phenomenal skill!!

[@DarthClam]

This is... beautiful

[@seanwmalone]

@JazzBass7 And... Btw, that's Gary Burton... Probably the most significant player of the instrument in the last 50 years.

[@stickkguitar]

remarkable performance :) beautifully done :)

[@roxylebon]

very good players... great music... congratulations.. Roxy

[@devostm]

Whoa! Pat Metheny is a boss piccolo player!

[@claudiosantini8112]

ah ah ah gli assomiglia un po'!!!!!!!!

[@DeathMetalUnderKing]

i've never heard anyone play a piccolo so well T.T amazing.

[@KingConn3b]

Thanks for posting!

[@thebook55555]

I love daniels! and i love how they altered the chord structure in his solo at 4:13

[@Gruezi583]

love the vibraphone solo

[@DanniBahiaBass]

Velhos tempos! Muito bom essa interpretação

[@theozeus]

I was really hoping for Pat Metheny at the picolo xD

[@ohe1118]

This is really really good!!! =)

[@braintreecat]

Right you are. Bells can be found in orchestras also. (hence: orchestra bells) They are usually 2 octaves with no resonators and played with small steel ball mallets are ones made of hard plastic on a horizontal table. Vibes are completely different.

[@pegasoservicestore2670]

wow Nelson!!!!!

[@jake_barden]

Beautiful

[@AdemirJuniorJazz]

Demais! faz parte dos meus 16 anos esse video!

[@kaseyWtrumpet]

Nelson Rangell with a fro...NICE.

[@CaitlinBrooksMusic]

Eddie Davis sure makes jazz clarinet a retro icon! I play jazz on my clarinet too, and I insist everybody that it, as well as any other instrument, belongs in jazz! I was also thrilled to see a jazz piccolo player!

[@Vinny1130]

thanks for confirming that for me

[@jacksonclifford]

killin just plain killin

[@Redd_504]

4:43 Jerry springer is a beast on the baritone LMAO!

[@DrFlowPow]

GREAT!!!

[@giuliocarmassi]

amazing.

[@Iamafish]

I'm pretty sure thats weckl. I think Patitucci playes bass here! Those two together is pure GOLD!! just like this performance

[@Flanning]

He didn't say bells he said 'vibes' which is what the instrument is, a vibraphone. The bars are aluminum instead of wood and the tubes have a sort of vibration mechanism that creates vibrato and sustain when needed.

[@clashroyal7644]

Super!!!!

[@TheJazzSwings]

lol, I am going through versions of this song, playing along. hahaha, I don't think I have it down in this key yet :P

[@WilfriedBerk]

3:33 Eddie Daniels

[@milobrosamer272]

best 2 opening phrases

[@sbaiar]

My opinion... but I believe Eddie Daniels is the best jazz clarinetist alive!!

[@Адыл-л8о]

да круто профессионалы

[@strongone5000]

The guy on bass is John Patitucci!

[@oabrahamsson]

Wow! That arrangement just blew me away! And how great aren´t those solos?!! Btw, doesn´t Nelson Rangell look a bit like Pat Metheny in this video, with all the hair and all that? :)

[@carloscarvalhoficial]

Perfect

[@footrane]

Excelent!!

[@jiyujizai]

楽しめるね🎵

[@Kaboomerz03]

Who's theat guy on piccolo, he's amaazing

[@darionpage]

indeed!

[@woboin]

The piccolo solo is in F, then they transpose into the original key of Ab for the vibes, then back to F for the head out, so i guess the piccolo needed it to be transposed.

[@JanHough]

A better word for transposed in this case is 'modulated'.

[@woboin]

@@JanHough yes you're right, thanks

[@biaxialplacebo]

00:28 he said "it was like in university of music," but I think he meant to say *universe of music

[@CarolAnnSD]

+Jason Cho - Pretty sure he did intend to say "university", as in school, because everyone was playing at the same time in different rooms, comparing it to classrooms.

[@biaxialplacebo]

+CarolAnnSD aha thnx for the explaination :)

[@khboehm1]

...my dear swan....

[@phenylphenol]

It's arguing like this that makes people turn away from jazz music -- as jazz musicians, I think we all have a duty to educate and encourage people, offering only constructive criticism, even to artists who aren't around. Otherwise, newcomers will always be afraid of being harshly judged and/or slandered. Jazz shouldn't be about a pissing contest of namedropping and street cred, it should be about enjoyment and love of music... but most of all, cooperation! That's what makes it great!

[@thefunkydrummer]

Ron Burgandy would be proud!

[@drbelljazz]

The vibes solo was hip as fuck...

[@soultaker1083]

Jesus. I've never heard Gary play a Be-Bop song or Post-Bop. I've heard him solo but not a song itself. Hes on fire. The piccolo too. Never heard a real jazz piccolo.

[@TheGamernamer]

Does anyone know if they published an arrangement of this version of Donna Lee

[@ZachM263]

did anybody publish the GRP arrangements?

[@ZachM263]

GRP big band that is

[@peh123123]

@djbot nah man. indiana was first, then miles davis took the chord changes and wrote a bebop head over it. and now we have donna lee

[@Adoniram1986]

Mr. Patitucci walking that bass...

[@DrummerInExile]

Everyone has the right to criticise CONSTRUCTIVELY.

[@rafalroz]

Donna in F sounds little oddly. Achh, what I can say? All stars! Great:).

[@hikaruantoinette6779]

EDDIEE!!! :D

[@DrummerInExile]

how do bells refers to MARIMBA??!!!

[@JazzBass7]

@seanwmalone Vibraphone....my bad man, lol. I know what you mean because I play bass and people are like, "Oh you play guitar huh?" I go, "bass.....BASS!!! This has 4 strings not 6." lol But yeah Gary is awesome...I clearly watched his solo over and over until it got better each time. But I'll remember which ones are wood and which aren't haha.

[@w6hu]

ezt nem lehet elégszer meghallgatni! :D

[@funkysax2002]

That looks like a Hammig piccolo to me! Any one know for sure?

[@elbajodepitu]

run forest run!

[@KillerFlutejuice401]

Nelson Rangell does play a mean Priccolo,oh I meant Piccolo LOL.

[@EmielBlom]

Dave Weckl is cool!

[@JazzKeyboardist1]

never understood why Charlie parker didn't play the entire head the second time

[@sirskatealot066]

vibes are a c instrument, so it would be same as the concert key.

[@dejavue666]

It is called vibraphone.

[@swimdrake]

when i listen to daniels i feel really bad at the clarinet..:(

[@SAXYRIC359]

TOM SCOTT ON BARI!!

[@MrTaylorforget]

Tom selleck can really shred the old licorice stick eh!

[@Augustinemelecio]

Cheeeeeeesey!

[@ItsQuesh]

He had long hair back then.
