Jazz Casual - Cannonball Adderley Quintet (1961)

[@whiteyboy6454]

Definitely geniuses of the twentieth century. Never nearly as famous as they should have been. Work Song is top 1% in my opinion. Nat and Julian Adderley are gifts to the universe.

[@andrewbaird3096]

Cannonball is just absolute perfection. The rhythmic feel of his lines and his tone were the absolute pinnacle of bebop IMHO. His bands were always unbelievably swinging as well (along with his brother of course).

[@postatility9703]

COMMUNICATION! Both musically and verbally (In his priceless intros and raps to the audience)We greatly miss Cannon......there will never be another.

[@jdez095]

The fact that everything was memorized or ad-libbed is just genius. absolute genius. Thats how you know they put in DAT WORK!!

[@fivebyfivesound]

Adderley's education background comes through strong in the concision of his remarks. Grateful to be learning from him almost 60 years later.

[@cleberguima1]

Yeah. For sure.

[@RonCarterBassist]

Listening to jazz is one of the best ways to learn jazz...

[@Johnnycdrums]

Me too.

When I have kids this video will be playing in the background while we eat dinner.

[@valentinius62]

Have any kids yet?

[@creatividadeinnovacionirso9622]

@@valentinius62 I dont think so..

[@olebirgerpedersen]

This music as background ? I think it's more worth than that.

[@postatility9703]

Cleber, thank you so much for this!!! Because of the vast amount of great stuff on KZbin,and the general effects on one's attention span in today's world,I rarely watch anything of this length anymore.But this program was completely arresting in it's intelligent and compelling presentation,by the band,the host,the warmth and simplicity of the set(having grown up with mostly black and white tv,I found this visually comforting)and last but certainly not least,the brilliance of Mr.Adderley.We must treasure this program,for we're not likely to see too many musical presentations on today's tv as unassuming yet deeply satisfying as this one.Thanks again!

[@cleberguima1]

Yeah Greg. I know what you mean. This is an incredible show and it's so good to see so many people watching it. :)

[@audreychoiseau]

merci d'avoir publié cette vidéo! quel bon enregistrement -la musique, surtout!

[@edwardhall184]

To my Uncle Sam “Homes” Jones who was the “bottom” for this great band for many years… during my adolescent years I didn’t know he played with all the greats… it was only until the Lord called him to his rest in 1981 that I found out what he actually did… Again, all of these guys are swinging together in Heaven playing praises to The Father on high 🙏🏽

[@benjamincs1]

Love Cannonball - a player with SUCH feeling - and loving his little introductions too!

[@cleberguima1]

Yeah, he is amazing.

[@Groovy26407]

+Benjamin Smith that man didn t perform solos ,he performed hits on sax,every solo of his is so damn easy to remember ,yet not that easy to play it !thats genius

[@santostamayac-lopez4722]

I love I can hear it all day and months and years

[@bustabass9025]

The Cannonball at work....Priceless! 👑🎷🎵🎸

[@goodkawz]

3-7-2016 You love a musician or a group and sort of forget for a long time. Then you find you way back somehow and it's like opening up something brand new. "Funny, how time slips away."

[@cleberguima1]

+goodkawz Great!!!

[@jphayward2011]

That second alto solo blew my mind

[@jaybion]

This host is back in fashion today. Cannonball was the best!

[@cleberguima1]

For sure... :)

[@MickHutchinsonMusician]

One of the greatest musicians ever !!

[@sorenhvenegaard6374]

Nat quotes "Exactly Like You" around 24:03. Love the way he moves out of the quote.

[@gabriellazaro7375]

Joe Zawinul!!

[@FerCarranza2]

"Scotch and water" from Zawinul, great tune!!!!

[@PabloVestory]

Yes! and the big things that he later did in music maybe overshadowed a little the fact that he really could Swing 2:56

[@A.ChristopherJohnson]

Besides Miles' 1st Quintet, the illest Quintet Bar None Kid ! ! !

[@Bix12]

Imagine the apprenticeship one would receive under this great player! It's no wonder the first Weather Report albums were already sophisticated, brilliant works...

[@swamisMotelBand1]

Early Zawinul ..... love it . the entire quintet just dayum !thnak you for posting this .

[@cleberguima1]

Yeah!! Love this too. :)

[@herbertho6481]

Just love Unit 7! One of my all-time favorites!

[@harveyscolnick9048]

Louis Hayes and Sam Jones drove this band for many years.

[@buddyfaya8631]

It’s soo clear that he understands his music theory

[@davidmiller4078]

Wonderful stuff great to hear Cannonball play and to see Joe Zawinul before his Weather repoet hat all brilliant composers and players thanks for posting

[@SeerTrulth]

That lineup is just too much. Joe Zawinul from Weather Report fame, Louis Hayes on drums, Sam Jones. Hell, kids, this is the real deal.

[@cleberguima1]

+SeerTrulth For sure.

[@jazztete1]

+SeerTrulth --you said it---takes me way back and Vic Feldman was top of my list!!

[@Johnnycdrums]

And I remember people were saying he was "Old School." Not a horn man, but I don't get that.

[@MaxIsBackInTown]

Good lord man. Joe zawinul played in cannonballs band for many years before Weather report was even a thought…

[@ricaard]

THIS is my kind of performance/ Master Class! More of this, please!!

[@bebopuser]

[@cleberguima1]

Great. :)

[@kfdisawesome]

Unit Seven is a really cool song

[@gracielarengifo2068]

La musica de los anos 1960 es muy especial en sonido . musical y su Quintet es excelente

[@Johnnycdrums]

How cool is this coming up on my feed? Never seen it, and I'm a Cannonball fan.

[@513coltrane]

this is a million dollar group that has enough swing to move the heavens and earth.

[@michaeldavis9954]

Awesome stuff. Thanks for sharing!

[@bebopuser]

Zawinul HARDBOP UNIQUE MASTER

[@Bird_Coltrane_Monk_Dizzy1113]

Known for his "bounce" over the rhythm section, he's (Cannonball) also a little underrated. He pushed sax players further with his blues drenched playing. How about stylistically? Many have followed his blueprint, but never matching his utterly soulful sound.

[@bobobrien3563]

Louis Hayes unique style....rim tapping. Used it in my humble stint as an amateur drummer in the 60's.

[@Bird_Coltrane_Monk_Dizzy1113]

@@bobobrien3563 - Louis Hayes is a fantastic drummer

[@rkgrant]

great player and such an articulate and thoughtful speaker.

[@georgekoonce1265]

A Fort Lauderdale native , product of Florida A M , noted saxophone, probably tenor , great range , committed to the rhythm section especially , piano at his best during live performances . His brother ,Bat Adderly , also a noted Jazz

[@robertellison4691]

George Koonce Cannon was born in Tampa and he and Nate grew up in Tallahassee. Cannon moved to Ft. Lauderdale after graduating college to be a high school band teacher. I just read his biography called Walk Tall. The Adderley's were great musicians and seemed like genuinely good folks.

[@unknownaccount7033]

This was nice.

[@Capajazz]

The greatest alto player ever

[@bandicoot5412]

True art.

[@A.ChristopherJohnson]

Right On Cleber Guimaraes !!!!

[@cleberguima1]

Yeah!! :)

[@DomMinasi]

The best..no one hac come close to him.

[@Capajazz]

Couldn’t agree more. Cannonball was and is the greatest alto player ever

[@Elmersmom]

i love it

[@najponkjazz9111]

Who the hell put thumb down on this?!?!?!? Those guys should be locked in hospital for insane people....👎Happy Birthday Cannonball!!!! 🗽🗽🗽🗽

[@DolphLundgrenix6909]

Mr. Najponk sometimes people accidentally hit the button. who gives a fuck if somebody doesn't like cannonball any way its their loss.

[@RicoJazz]

Sorry I was drunk, I missed the like button!

[@golds04]

I forgot what the word jaunty meant. I looked it up in the dictionary. All it said in Webster’s was : “ Julian “Cannonball “Adderley. Shaw nuff’ ❤🌸💯

[@jontonkin6291]

facinating..

[@jonathanadler6983]

Joe Zawinul: how can an Austrian be so funky?

[@highgradeOG]

a young Zawinul..swinging

[@50danohi]

They were so smooth. I wish that Nate got alittle more notariety. Julian is still as good as they come..

[@cleberguima1]

Oh yes, Nat was an incredible player and deserved that..

[@50danohi]

Not that they wernt famous...but they should have been even bigger. That kind of talent is imposible to duplicate.

[@cleberguima1]

Dan Bunch For sure. I agree, they are in that "zone" that is one of a kind.

[@olebirgerpedersen]

I like the way he plays his cornet. He can make it sound like a trompet and still having the dark sound of the cornet.

[@TheSpiralnotebook]

I've never been in love before 21:18

[@garthellarkin9070]

What day is it that you can’t use a little Cannonball in your life!! 😅

Dopeeee

24:04 Exactly Like Unit Seven

[@RAMLIA1]

❤️❤️❤️

[@billabbott6092]

Why the beret over the bell, was Nat's sound too hot for the microphones in that studio?

[@virgilrobertsjr7870]

SCOTCH AND WATER ☆☆☆☆☆ 😎

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@zacharywilliams5724]

2:56 piano solo (for my own reference)

[@roomsixhu]

Oh Herr Zawinul. Met my wife with him! In 2001. He insisted in Peace and Justice.

[@pagesofbeck]

The inception of The Weather Report

[@luismennucci6832]

Does anyone see or saw the microphones? It sounds incredible but I can't understand how they recorded

[@jamesc.lockwood3810]

Zawinul replaced Bobby Timmons, who left Cannonball for Art Blakey.

[@jorap9116]

Whats the name of this song

[@maxwesmont]

This is so great. Which year is that?

[@cleberguima1]

Yes. This is great. 1961.

[@vova47]

Casual?...But they're wearing suits and ties!🤔

[@vatanenj]

Poor Joe Zawinul lost his hair while playing with cannibal... No, not mis spelling. The older Adderley was called that, because his enormous alletit, but record company didnt think it a good name so it was changed to Cannonball..

[@johnk6598]

I’d say they made the right call

[@wowebb3]

Listening over 50 years later and Nat Adderly is still weak as ever. Actually, he sounds weaker now than when I last saw him in person. .. spoken by Willis O. Webb (2024)

[@JonFrumTheFirst]

It's a shame Nat played with that fur coat over his bell.

[@517JET]

I’d never seen anything like that before.
