when i explain you guys it is ALWAYS as "Car Talk for Jazz Nerds"

Actually I listen to You’ll Hear It while driving :)

[@clarklovell5885]

Adam and Peter, thanks so much for doing these deep dives into these records. I have been dealing with a lip injury (trumpet) for the last two years and haven't been able to gig healthily since then. These deep dives help me feel like I can still connect with the music I love so much! Keep on keepin' on! (That was your hint to do a Clark Terry record 😉)

[@jackdolphy8965]

This record and Ugetsu were my favs growing up with the music 55 years ago. Tkx for this terrific listen !!

[@tmoddison]

Yes! Do live calls. That’d be wild!!

[@GameNationRDF]

Please keep this series up, I really enjoy these dives into my favourite records, also discovered a lot from these too!

[@Le_Mer]

Wildly underrated podcast.

[@deadfdr]

One of the most enjoyable podcasts of all my diverse interests. Thank you!!

[@EverettJohnson-js2zw]

Love to see you guys react the same way I do when I listen to this record. Impossible not to want to move. Art Blakey is my favorite drummer. I love to see you guys rave about him.

[@kevinespinosa4611]

Thanks, again! So much music to discover!

Do live calls! I’ll call in!

[@BobMazzo]

Agreed !

[@KyleGrayYoung]

I listened to the podcast this morning. I had to come to check the video to see what Peter's demo was at the beginning. 👏👏

What a super bummer that we'll never get to hear you two break down The Koln Concert.

[@isaacsmith6976]

Yeah idk why they said they'd get blocked -- do they have a lot of bad stuff to say about it? Or maybe they just think it's overrated and don't want to get mobbed by diehard fans?

Gil Evans used to do weekly shows at Sweet Basils on 7th Avenue South. And he would always have a bunch student players. Everyone so young. Potential stars and leaders.

Reggie Workman walked in on my WPU jazz audition in 1985. I had just turned 18 and so naive.😢

[@JunkerOnDrums]

Even Buddy Rich played in his last 25 years with lots of young musicians right from the jazz school, and some of them also got a career - maybe more modest than Blakey's musicians, but still :D Nice to see your videos - even though I often know the music, but so wonderful to be excited together with real jazz lovers. P.S: been to several Art Blakey concerts - always great and amazing.

[@kwolenberger5202]

You guys know about Click and Clack, awesome! I loved that show, as I do yours.

[@ElbowsUnique]

It has to be the Keith Jarrett vocalization award.

[@BrianPerez]

Yeah. He’s prolific in this category!

[@ElbowsUnique]

@@BrianPerez there are songs where i can’t hear anything else. Also, he sounds like Cartman from south park when he does it.

[@maugli1347]

Do Speak No Evil!! 😁😁

[@GameNationRDF]

I would also be interested to see you guys react to and analyze In'n'out by Joe Henderson. To me it characterizes that time's blue note releases, and the playing and cover art is sick :) serenity is my fav, it has a weird 14 bar head!

[@LowKeyTired-q7d]

Damn bro my comment ... Looks like my original one got vetted out ... About buying moanin on CD years ago ...

[@toddhouston4523]

Many musicians I’ve listened to had younger musicians on; Maynard Ferguson, Buddy Rich Stan Kenton are some I remember. In Maynard’s last years, he would pretty much let the musicians play.

[@tonypersson9998]

Great episode on a fantastic album. Thank you! (but /especially/ Peter’s microphone sounds bad at times)

[@tonypersson9998]

Also, your voices are a bit overpowered by the music at times.

[@jacklynam5653]

The only issue that might occur with live calls is people calling with no intent of making a serious enquiry and just to waste your guys' time. Although if there was a way to get around that kind of thing then that would be a lot of fun to watch!

[@lukeserrano62]

Get producer Caleb to screen the calls, then put the legit ones through.

[@turtlespiritflutes7570]

four hours in and no hate mail on the Freddie high note comment. What am I at a jazz piano convention? Two piano players are having a podcast when a trumpet player stumbles along. So here we go. It's a double high concert C. When Freddie would play upper register, his tone would change. A little less fluff and butter tone than when he is playing in middle and lower register. But Freddie had serious high note chops that didn't compromise his style. If he would nail that note with the brilliance of the likes Maynard Ferguson or Arturo Sandaval than it would be out of character for Freddie and the ensemble. Most trumpet players would give their left arm for a sound and articulation like Freddie. But the problem with giving your left arm is it doesn't come with Freddie's melodic genius, and harmonic, and rhythmic sophistication. Freddie could also swing over a trio of dead rocks and make it feel good. Any trumpet player that that has the musical brilliance that combines a beautiful tone, melodic, rhythmic and harmonic genius and unbridled creative spirit (think Stevie Wonder of Trumpet) was a God. Or as his trombone player who recorded at the Keystone Korner said on an interview, there never was and never will be a trumpet player like him. It's like that? Yeah, it's like that. Once you get to that register, especially at the end of the tune, where you are climaxing, and Art is hitting those cymbals asking the tribe to go full throttle then .... just let it hang out. If it was the Hummell Trumpet Concerto, you might be able to deduct one point. But according to my online, AI, Digital Tone generator, he was perfectly in tune. Hate mail over (sarcasm)

[@drstrange629]

We can her Caleb btw. :) 👍🏾

It's fine in speakers, but I'm not a supporter of LCR panning when listening headphones for pleasure. I change my tune when trying to learn an individual part. Then, the isolation can be handy, I'll grant you that. When listening holistically, without the benefit of room acoustics that speakers would provide, then I'd like gentler panning, or at least a little crosstalk, especually during sparser moments. 20:15 🤣Oh how I wish you meant that comment literally. Because no, he's not literally down the center at all - he's way off to the right. If this track was Canada, he'd be Newfoundland. But if they ever come out with a rebalanced release they should NOT supercede the original. Sometimes it really bugs me when they autotune and nudge notes within a classic recording, release the "remaster", and then remove all of the original versions from the web. I feel like the contemporary stewards of classic music have a responsibility to uphold the original recording... and then, additionally, as rights holders, they can sweeten, molest, tamper with, and taint additional re-releases to their heart's delight. Personally, I'd rather hear more modern panning applied to this record... but also to keep this version for people who are learning the arrangement or who don't have headphones. I've had to pause the show, and will come back later. I think this is the only tune I've heard off of this album, but I assume the panning is about the same, for the rest of it? Great playing so far, though. Even though that's obvious, I don't want people to think I'm upset about the album choice, or conversation, or whatever... I'm docking it a point because of the record's panning. Back then, listeners' music would be amplified and transduced from a large piece of room furniture. So, this was a stylish and practical panning scheme, at the time. You know... probably if I listened to it through room simulation software (companies make that for people who try to mix while wearing headphones instead of using speakers in an acoustically treated room) with the crosstalk turned up, it would be fine. Maybe there's a pared back version of that in a media player app for Android phones. I'll have to check.
