My Silent Love - Erroll Garner 1962

My Silent Love Garner Errol 1962
Errol , just turned 41, is seen and heard here in a performance in Amsterdam in 1962. Together with drummer Kelly Martin and bassist Eddy Calhoun they bring you My Silent Love.
It is amazing to see, where obviously Errol plays an improvised intro, the bassist watches in anticipation when the great man will come in with the chorus. Errol , after playing about a minute of introduction just turns and smiles , then suddenly with a definite nod, the band picks up and sets in one of these perfect tempos.
What a performer!
Born in 1921 he was a self-taught pianist who never learned to read music, Erroll Garner was nevertheless one of the most popular jazz musicians of the 1950s. His swinging piano and gift for melody kept him on the top of the charts, and his most memorable tune, "Misty" was a pop hit for many different artists between 1959 and 1975

[@jimthompson606]

Those fabulous beginnings of Errol are mini-suites in and of themselves and then that delicious groove.

[@wj-pe7ej]

Pure genius! How i wish I was alive when he was alive! He's doing exceptional things on the piano and yet making it look so "easy" and "normal". Bravo!

Only the best. A unique genius who has never been replaced

[@freddiefrumko4230]

I was indeed lucky or fortunate to hear this man perform on the piano at my university last century when I was collecting his recordings and knew about his talents.There were then and continued to be recognizable qualities that added up to a certain unique method of creating music. Call it genius if you want. For my tastes it did not get any better than what I heard that evening and afternoon. Remarkable performance that deserved to be heard and praised in those days as much as today. He doesn't look at the keyboard and knows where to place his fingers on the keys that he plays. Inventive and innovative for sure but that was his lasting contribution to jazz piano music. Nothing has been done to discourage me from listening to him today. A separate category of improvisation. To turn away from appreciating and praising his musical accomplishments today is unforgivable. A form of negligence. Our artistic community needs to remedy this problem.

[@Bbeumy]

He’s got joy inside of him. He makes me dance and cry at the same time. Damn he loves life so so much.

[@victormanuelpadilla1845]

¡Fantastico!

[@Santosificationable]

Erroll Garner - my favourite jazz pianist.

[@christianlaruelle]

Soixante ans plus tard, quel bonheur d'ėcouter encore et encore ce pianiste vraiment unique !

[@MichaelRoseOrchestra]

I saw him perform several times in the 1950s at Basin Street East and Birdland in NYC. Pure delight !

[@joevald3]

Wow ! it does not get any better ....................

[@verajunho6357]

Erroll FOREVER Garner! The greatest

[@freddiefrumko4230]

It don't get no better than this. Today's younger audiences do not know what they are missing. Not to be duplicated. This is pure genius by all accounts. Yes indeed.

[@user-mc1co5hg9n]

I met and listened to Erroll's brother and piano teacher Linton in the foyer of HSBC bank in Vancouver and at Rossini's the same evening.

[@Jazzbobill]

The master !! It is sheer joy to hear Errol start swinging after the brief intro. Today's younger audiences don't know what they are missing.

[@dylanmcgaharn5676]

Jazzbobill I figured out what I was missing

[@pemolykc]

thanks

[@LUIZEDUARDO-wd6dy]

Antes do som vem a Alma que, nas teclas, imprimem os gestos da face de Erroll e, assim, nasce a Música.

[@ChannelMaster720]

THE INTRODUCTION TO THIS PARTICULAR SONG COULD BE USED FOR ANY SONG. IT HOLDS YOU IN SUSPENSE TO WHAT SONG WILL BE PLAYED. INGENIOUS! THIS MAN LOVES TO PLAY FONDLY WITH THE AUDIENCE. HE IS REALLY A "CUT U P". HIS PIANO PLAYING IS THE BEST AND HE HAS ALWAYS MADE ME COME BACK FOR MORE, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I'VE HEARD HIM PLAY. SO ENJOYABLE. SYLVIA 4/24/21

[@virgilrw]

A Genuine #MASTERPIECE!

[@abdelazizelkhemmar2527]

Love him for a long time

[@dianamariamische5300]

He was a genius, i love him

[@janerikuhrstrom5995]

This intro is so ingenuous, invented just for the occasion, marvelous man.

[@georgeczuba349]

One of his flying improvisations without a doubt. Amazing artist with a God-given natural talent for combining rhythm and harmonization - plays with heart and the feeling of the moment. His recording of Concert By The Sea was Jazz Album of the year in 1956. Other individual song suggestions by him are "Stella by Starlight" (played in a totally different genre) and his own composition "No more Shadows" that I particularly like. "Autumn Leaves" from the 1956 album is the best interpretation of the song that I have ever heard with no offence to Roger Williams who brought out the song in the fall of 1954. In France he was named the Picasso of the piano.

[@SELMER1947]

One word: FABULOUS

[@stevemulwitz8658]

ERROLL IS THE GREATEST AND FANTASTIC PATIENCE ON THE PART OF THE BASS PLAYER

[@msotil]

Eddie Calhoun, the bassist. He follows unerringly what Erroll Garner is doing, which if mostly improvising!

[@carylachman8370]

Really fun to watch Eddie Calhoun on the intros!

[@PabluchoViision]

Has to be one of Erroll's greatest performances ever. Even by his wild standards, intro a bewildering odyssey of strange, unpredictably building tension. His treatment of the melody so gently sly & insinuating, rubatos so bewitching... Really at his madcap best here. & all this bag of tricks, all this inventive delight, all of it in the service of the music. Glorious

[@christophmessner6450]

I was just about to say the same ...

[@carlosmanuelgomez6961]

Óscar Peterson and Eroll Garner, two genius❤❤❤❤❤

[@990jur]

Great Erroll Garner

[@mpcguy]

Genius... how he can swing two time feels at once and move in and out of hemiola is amazing .

[@agustine.alvarez9832]

The Garner touch, fantastic.

[@amariusqueadmare9012]

Jazz, Jazz, Jazz! Fantastic.

[@emanuilmarkov7632]

The intro is just NO WAY... apart from being genius on the piano, he has to be the king of the intro of music lol... also the smile on Eddy's face at the end of the intro when Errol turned to him seas it all...

[@enricatravanut8147]

Just marvelous playing i cannot get enough of it!!!!

[@noreenjackson4377]

Absolutely incredible genius I was lucky to meet in Los Angeles in the seventies after Sweets Sunday night gig at the Baked Potato where Sass, Sweets and a group of us hung out in Toluca Lake. Erroll and I spoke for quite a while. He died not long after being diagnosed with cancer.

[@jimcaro5063]

I have listened to Garner for over seventy years I have always wondered why his stupefying technique and styles were not appreciated more. He is, at the very least, the equal of Tatum. Happily, this situation is beginning to change. Many of his renditions are masterpieces. Ultimately, it is difficult, if not impossible to judge genius. Both of the folks are right up there with Vlad Horowitz! Amen

[@stephanedubarry8624]

The first time I heard this tune was in 1962, in Close Up In Swing my father offered to the New teenager I was

[@totem738]

Quelle classe....

[@autumnleaves2766]

My favourite jazz pianist, a little genius who died far too young. RIP Erroll Garner 15.6.1921- 2.1.1977

[@mamouretful]

Bonheur absolu ...!!!!

[@jillianfoley5930]

This makes my heart sing. The gorgeous Erroll Garner is out of this world. My old lps are worn out and i can see Erroll on You Tube now I am 81 and my old lps when I was in my twenties still have that magjic - what an amazing person. Just love his smile - would loved to have met him an absolute genius.

I have always loved this tune. Peggy Lee sang it and Jimmy Rowles played it. I love Errol's version.

[@juniperwoodgreen4090]

They really had great lives and gave us so much, the much of which has never been recreated quite to the cool and groovy mood...
