When I first heard this on Emmets place, I instantly knew everyone and their mom was about to transcribe this

we gotta talk about how good the band was on this one too.. Bartley murdered it but was most definitely aided and abetted by that super-tight rhythm section.

every bit of it was incredible. hot diggity dog were they jivin

[@parkerpeterson517]

bro you are so right. the drums at 1:20 I LOVE and the way pianist comp at 2:10 is so sick

[@BrianSostek]

@@parkerpeterson517 how do they remember when to comp together like that or is it improv they were just on the same wavelength

[@parkerpeterson517]

@@BrianSostek Usually one of two things: 1) the sax player was quoting a song/jazz standard when he played the first part of the lick and the pianist instantly recognized that and played the following rhythm to match the sax OR 2) they maybe rehearsed before or have played together before and that is a lick that Bartley likes to do I guess the third option is just mind reading

its crazy seeing a guy who i met in high school and getting to befriend and share experiences with being transcribed on youtube. i can confirm patrick has been incredible since i met him in 2009. His warmup on clarinet was so insane that it made me quit the clarinet and focus on guitar. patrick is incredible and i love him dearly.

[@kile8328]

first day back at jazz college and the saxes are already ripping through this lol

[@johnskamnakis2501]

He has a distinct tone! It was like I was listening to Grappelli on saxophone! And the vibrato on the altissimo G in the end, what a way to finish the solo...

[@bounderby99]

This almost sounds like very old New Orleans jazz mixed with bop and other modern stuff

[@xethanndonttryme6983]

Pat is a man of many styles. Knowing him, his bop stylistic choice (his main style) is purposely interwoven within the new orleans style of After you’ve gone while taking liberties to add some more soulful feel to get that emotion of joy out there. Even if I’m reaching in what I say, it’s amazing nonetheless because that’s in my opinion how it feels to listen to this.

[@bounderby99]

@@xethanndonttryme6983 for sure. I am a lot more familiar with his playing now than I was when I made this comment (obviously), and he definitely has that New Orleans thing present (as well as many other influences) throughout all of his playing. Very much like Wynton Marsalis (who was a mentor of his) in that regard; not everyone is as heavily directly influenced by New Orleans, ragtime, stride, etc… as they are

[@user-jp7zm3fo3q]

He's an astute student of jazz history for sure! Personally, I'm hearing a lot of Johnny Hodge, Coleman Hawkins, and Lester Young, Swing vocab and language more than New Orleans style here. But NOLA started it all, so it all comes back.

[@lewisblakley8288]

I'll say what we are all thinking. This solo was bussin.

[@bermchasin]

no better jass in the land

[@Mr-Wonderful]

I can't get over how beautiful this solo is, you can hear 100 years of jazz history all condensed into this masterclass of a solo! Pat is a legend in the making!

How insane is Patrick Bartley on this one? I was totally blown away by his playing on this beautiful old standard "After You've Gone" just a week ago... 🔥 Amazing traditional playing with some hip stuff, mostly in the breaks. Too many good lines in here 🎷 Make sure to check the video this was taken from Emmet Cohen's KZbin channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2mXnKagocpnj6M Thumbs up for Patrick if you want more people to know his insane playing!

[@SharpElevenMusic]

Thanks! Glad you dig it 😄

[@xethanndonttryme6983]

I can’t understand those who give up because someone like Pat is capable of imagination-defying otherworldly solos like this. This right here is exactly what should drive you to be even half as good if nothing else! Jazz needs more people who want to achieve above and beyond. You learn from the greats and then you pour and pour every bit of skill and talent you have to becoming a beast of your own. I assure you Pat probably thought the same and here he is now just hitting his 30s or so being one of the best sax players alive. Incredible 😤👍🏾

[@wickswoodard1318]

i would kill to be half as good as patrick man

[@saxofonspelaren]

I go for 1%

[@SharpElevenMusic]

Hmm, maybe better practice to be haf as good as Patrick, bit less dirty.

[@andrewmaloney6038]

Patrick is one of the few modern players that when I listen to him improvise, it quite literally moves me to tears. The stories he tells in his solos and the emotion in his playing are so potent. What a gift this guy has, and what a treasure he is to the jazz world.

[@scsaxophone2909]

Thank you for the transcription! One of the great modern jazz solos of our time.

[@DeepCrossing1]

An absolute tour de force of classical New Orleans playing, his lines remind of Bach, testing the limits of inside playing, but then some of the instinctive blues stuff he does… whoo boy

[@EricTorreborre]

For me the phrasing is also important. For example the way he approaches the first GM7. And then the repeated notes like G G# G G# G G#. Thanks again for this analysis, I'm playing bits of this solo everyday and it helps me understand how it works. The thing that is still a mystery to me is how it is humanly possible to improvise so well at that tempo 🤯

[@wickswoodard1318]

1:18 is so amazing

[@altariabeats]

One of those beautiful moments of near supernatural communication between the musicians.

[@Icaron98]

that bass is delicious

[@Marunius]

You guys never stop working!! What a joyful performance!

[@SharpElevenMusic]

besides all the great lines, the energy build from the complete band is indeed best described as joyful :D great how you feel when every bandmember puts in as much energy as they posses all at the same time

[@MauriatOttolink]

This guy opens up the chord sequence totally. He examines them, defines them and then generates a whole new masterpiece out of them. I can't say best ever recording. There have been so many but he certainly gets a nomination.

[@JXter_]

This is simply a masterful solo. Excellent phrasing, motivic development, thinking outside the box while giving the listener exactly what they didn't know they wanted to hear, and the use of just pure jazz LANGUAGE. Pat is one of the best of this new generation of jazz musicians and solos like this are going to be transcribed extensively and valued highly in the future of jazz. We are witnessing history in the making!

you can hear the drummer play it a moment before and i think emmett and patrick caught it and decided to hit the same rhythm right after.

Patrick explains this in a video actually. It was a voice leading setup that Pat did before the hits which emmet and the drummer knew about so they basically anticipated what Pat would do pretty much the next 3 bars

Ok, Concentrate on these statements... This solo is the history of Jazz Saxophone in Three Minutes... These qualities are in no particular order...Sophistication and elegance of Frankie Trumbauer, the Chordal dexterity of Colemen Hawkins, Note bending and growls of Johnny Hodges, Range, and Dexterity of Michael Brecker, Bebop stream of Conscienceness of Charlie Parker, Swing Elements of Benny Carter, Beauty and subtility of Lester Young, Rhythmic Intensity of Sonny Rollins, Theme and Variations of Chris Potter, Soul Cry/Primal Scream of Eric Dolphy, virtuosity and spiritualness of John Coltrane, Wit and Inventiveness of Sonny Stitt, Intuition of Stan Getz, One Note Dominance of Gene Ammons, Motific development of Dexter Gordon, Sixteenth note Coloratura of Cannonball Adderly, Solidness of Hank Mobley, Aggressive tone and drive of Sidney Bechet! Listen and you'll hear all that I am attempting to describe

[@simontrombone1]

Can I ask what you think is happening during bars 17-21. This really doesn't sound like a standard 4 bar phrase to me. It almost sounds like they've dropped an entire crotchet somewhere. What do you think?

[@bounderby99]

I think he just speeds up slightly at the end of the phrase, which leads to what sounds like half a beat being dropped (potentially as a result of the eighth note being held over the bar line)

[@SharpElevenMusic]

​@@bounderby99 Yeah, that's probably what happened. They were already hyped at that moment, and it's one of the main qualities of that great recording I believe, the pushy nature of the entire solo. And here so soon in the solo, it's clear that Patrick really pushed everybody to go with him

[@bounderby99]

@@SharpElevenMusic it’s a really cool effect, for sure! I think sometimes we spend so much time working on having perfect time (and for good reason), that we can forget that some tempo variation can be really awesome (such as in a break like Patrick does here)! As long as you make the new tempo clear and get to one strongly enough, pushing can be amazing!

[@SharpElevenMusic]

Absolutely! Transcription is merely a guide. Many other factors need to digested otherwise

[@xethanndonttryme6983]

If you slow it down and listen a bit to the E in the triplet on bar 18, it’s rather cut really short or it’s not there which makes the entire phrase itself sound off by a tiny bit

[@georgebutler3477]

Incredible solo, super well transcribed, there's one or two tiny errors (bar 152 the Bb should be a b, there was one more but I can't remember what) but I'm not too worried seeing how fucking hard it would be to transcribe this due to tempo, and ofc just how much is being played, plus that's a pretty minor nitpick to an otherwise awesome transcription.
