Jim Hall "My Funny Valentine"

[@nyfaniloandrianjafy8171]

The father of modern jazz guitar has left us. RIP.

[@robertocanales1201]

Ny Fanilo Andrianjafy He didn’t really left us, as long as we keep him in our hearts. “To die” not necessarily mean to actually die in all cases 😉

Quelle émotion de voir ce vieux monsieur qui vient de nous quitter

[@NeilRaouf]

that's also how I want to be, when I'll be old: still groovin' with my music buddies! jim is an inspiration!

[@AUdioHipster]

Wow, May God Bless you and comfort the family, unbelievable astounding musician, so many of us missed the opportunity to see Jim play live, like myself, wow what we missed, if you have the chance go see unbelievable talent like jim, just do it, when the Katona Twins or Hiromi played at Spivy Hall, man i told my friends no you have to go see this... you may never get to experience it in you're lifetime ever again. We miss you JIm... may we have opportunity to be blessed by your talent in paradise. Jehovah will see to it. Cheers Doyen

I first heard Jim playing with Chico Hamilton and the famous chamber group of the mid 50's. His beautiful sound continued to grow over the next 60 years. I last heard him live at the Vanguard with Art Farmer .. I was so fortunate to experience his music. RIP Jim. We also lost Chico and Fred Katz in 2013.

Raf Hall. Jim Hall you are best in modern Jazz. I love so much your music..!!

[@robertflint2549]

Kenny Barron is outstanding on this number.

[@jazzman1954]

The best guitar tone you will ever hear. So many guitarists sacrifice tone for speed.

[@davidsheriff9274]

Very true, sometimes I have to remind myself of that when I get so into what I'm playing that I forget how it is actually sounding.

[@jazzman1954]

@@davidsheriff9274 Easily done. We all do it. I try as much as possible to not look at my left hand. It’s a good thing to do for various reasons but it also forces you to listen to what you’re doing as opposed to watching.

[@davidsheriff9274]

@@jazzman1954 I saw a Scott Henderson instrumental video and he was taking about this very thing about people getting so into what they are doing that they are not listening to how it is actually sounding, and he said "remember, the sound comes out of your speaker, not your guitar". It's a pretty good thing to keep in mind. By the way, I took a lesson with Jim Hall many years ago and he was just as sweet and gentle a person as you would expect him to be from listening to him play.

[@jazzman1954]

@@davidsheriff9274 Doesn’t get much better than Jim Hall. I’ve been listening to Jimmy Raney recently. The album But Beautiful. His tone and phrases are off the scale IMO. It’s perhaps worth mentioning that most upright bass players tend not to look at their hands. Partly because it’s difficult and partly because they have to get the intonation right. You can only do that properly by listening really hard and adjusting.

[@davidsheriff9274]

@@jazzman1954 have you checked out Billy Bean?, he was fantastic.

[@gabri3l367]

Grande Jim Hall , lo ascoltato questa sera dal vivo a Bologna ( Italy ) e debbo dire che la concezione melodica e ritmica è veramente unica. Appoggiato al beat , chiarezza di esposizione , swing fantastico e ricercato , bel suono , ect... Che dire di più ? w il grande Jim Hall.

[@pengzuelao]

How wonderfull ! Jim Hall was very old, but was real guitar man.

[@zu0832]

pengzuelao he was a great guitar man when he was younger also

[@djangowoof]

age is just a number.

[@limajrplena]

Grande Mestre, som maravilhoso.......

[@keremcandundar4824]

Kenny Barron takes the tune to a totally different dimension

[@hartze4946]

MAESTRAZO!! JIM HALL.

[@doc4573]

this is a great version of MFV. At 2:50 when Jim handed it off to the piano, Barron took off in a really nice direction.

[@1flat5th]

Love Jim!

Grandpa Jim You're The Man !

[@isScoobyDooby]

Jim Hall, what a quiet Giant. In two days I have just leaned that Jim and in months past, George Duke both gone.I would add that Johnny Smith's passing was also very notable and in terms of Jim's legacy,his music was beautiful,eloquent and awakening. He is undoubtedly the Father of Modern Jazz Guitar. Vale Jim Hall.

[@davidstewart5452]

now going to watch Jim ALL things YOU ARE...TY

RIP, maestro

[@flangeres1752]

great!

[@ae3898]

Lewis Nash (d) has played with just about everyone in the last 30 years...I saw him onstage with Ron Carter and Russell Malone not too long ago. Lewis only sat in on the finale, but he was spectacular....

[@intuneorange]

Russell is such a guitarded Fellow. If he wasn't working you'd see him every Sunday night at the last set of the Village Vanguard absorbing Jim Hall.

[@doitnowvideosyeah5841]

Is that on octave box Jim is using around 7:05? Doesn't look like he is playing classic Wes style octaves but I hear a lower note

[@intuneorange]

Yea it is a Miguel Octave box. Lol

[@planetsdanny4320]

[@SetoBaaghh]

jim's tone is so smooth.

[@BernieHolland-w4l]

An object lesson for the contemporary school of vacuous virtuosos

[@intuneorange]

Although Jim would never say it himself he would appreciate your vocabulary

Do you know who the other players are?

[@jefflanaghan6327]

Been a fan of Jim Hall for many years. Strange to say, it had never dawned on me before how percussive his approach was and how little sustain in his notes. Guess I was always wrapped up in his tone and his improvisations to notice.
