Patrick is such a student of saxophone TRADITION... he is a living testament to all of the masters that preceded him. The old school syrup, sliding, heavy vibrato greatness of the early saxophone masters is so prevalent. And he SWINGS like mad. I've watched this solo dozens and dozens of times and it still makes me smile and shout. Such a great solo and group.

[@RRavazzi]

Coleman hawkings!!! Total

[@DeepCrossing1]

Yes Bartley is one of those rare jazz revivalists, dedicated to the craft of acoustic small group jazz. It’s mastery of a musical language, in the same or similar way that Bach mastered 18th century tonality. And it’s not just in his technique, it’s in his intention, and belief in the power of that language. His cadence, his flow, he searches for the essence of jazz.

I think the drummer kind of 'voiceled' them by playing basically the same notes just one moment before they hit those notes. Though I'm not sure whether or not he did that intentionally. Or maybe I'm wrong idk

[@robotmeadows]

@@Itssponjibob definitely, drummer probs played that not intentionally but in that split second both sax/piano heard it, recognized it and caught it right after, such a killer moment

Thanks Emmet for these great sessions! But this one... Patrick is just on fire 🔥😍. Just felt the urge to transcribe his insane solo, which is up on the channel now 😁 if somebody would like to see his amazing lines. What a great combination of traditional style and some added hip concepts!

[@dreadlord473]

Would love to see a transcription!

[@garylsmalley]

Who are these guys????? Dang........this group is LOADED with talent. Tuned in for the trumpet, who did not disappoint, but ....that sax solo, frigging AWESOME! Then the panio strides his way in and uses up the keyboard! Where does it end? It doesn't. Cause the drummer takes us on his trip, building, building, building then flowing back into the group finale! I have loved this song ever since I hear Doc Severinsen scream his solo/big band version.

[@ISuperTed]

Fellow Trumpet player here - love Bruce who is my favourite Trumpeter out there currently .... but..... Patrick’s solo is on a different planet with the sic phrasing with the rest of the band, the change to sticks at 2:46 on drums and that Lester Leaps in at the end. OMG.

Everyone's talking about Hartley's epic solo, but can we take a moment to appreciate how equally epic Harris' was? So tasty, yet smooth and controlled. Edit: And Saylor's? Completely different approach to the rest, but just as engaging. A perfect demonstration of how less is more (especially done right).

[@ApacheX11]

I was going through some dark times in my life..I hadn't played music in a long time and after hearing this? It resolved my blues and reinvigorated my groove. Not to make grand statements but I feel like you guys brought me back from the grave. Its time to start playing again, thank you gentlemen.

[@trevorsmith8950]

Notice how the drummer is following the pianist around 6:40, but they both leave the last note off at the end of the phrase? That's a tight band right there.

[@TWO20]

One of the best feelings when playing in a small group is getting so locked in with each other that you can do things like this without a second thought. It’s a truly fantastic experience

[@talonplayssaxmckinney6353]

#chemistry

[@GrumpyStormtrooper]

Classic interplay, it's the most fun way of interacting with other players. Chick Corea said he doesn't prefer this way of imitation, but the kind of interplay where two players complete each other, not simply imitate.

[@ISuperTed]

True dat. This is Miles/Tony Williams level of chemistry.

[@kjmsax1]

Mr. Bartley sir you have inspired me to embrace the swing era sound and phrasing. When I began studying Jazz saxophone, I started with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie’s BeBop and progressed into HardBop, but I completely ignored what came before. You have inspired me to study what they studied. Your solo on this piece is a textbook example of pre- BeBop Jazz saxophone improvisation. Thank You for the lesson/reminder of Jazz music history.

[@KDOGDK]

Good Luck, man. Don`t forget where it all started💪

[@paulgibby6932]

Oh my. Patrick Bartley *is* everything you said he is, Emmet. Man, what a fluid, idea-filled genius. Love watching Bruce Harris' reactions on the couch to the sax. Your band is cooking big-time too. Thanks so much

[@Bobbias]

So happy to see people discovering Pat here.i know him for his work with j-music Ensemble, although I also happened to catch a stream of him playing at the Lincoln center (a cannonball tribute at that). God I wish I'd had the foresight to find a way to save that stream.

[@mkjazz]

A lesson in swing! Jazz at it's best!

[@jackcarlsson5527]

This might be one of the best jazz recordings ever. So incredibly new founding. It's always good to know that we still can indicate in jazz whilst still playing in an older style.
