Tony Williams Trio - On Green Dolphin Street

[@georgefirk5531]

This is an excellent version of Green Dolphin St.,so fluently played by all.

[@rwkenyon]

As usual, Mulgrew Miller makes this beautiful composition even more beautiful. I have followed his entire career and can't believe that he is no longer with us: he was born in 1955! Miller+Colemean+Williams=A winning combination!

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

I have to say that I find the more relaxed, but still technically gifted pianists, such as Joe Sample, Red Garland, or [here] Mulgrew Miller, much more satisfying to listen to than the flamboyancy and almost musical indigestion of pianists such as Oscar Peterson......

[@jeffreyalexander7504]

+tunefultony...I find myself in the same boat. I love this guy's playing. In a more scaled back way, I also love Bill Evans' approach, though not as technical as the guys you mentioned, he was hugely influential. To me, Keith Jarrett has the technical facility of the guys you mentioned and yet he seems very lyrical too, like Evans. Keith is my favorite pianist. I'm a drummer, but I didn't come here to watch Tony Williams, although I can't deny how important he was to modern Jazz drumming. Like someone mentioned above, Tony Williams was much like Art Blakey and Elvin Jones...those cats were bangers. I'll take Connie Kaye's playing any day! Drums are like piano. Relax man. Play the tune.

BANGERS ?? YOU ARE A MORON !!!@@jeffreyalexander7504

[@georgefirk5531]

Mulgrew Miller’s piano playing is so listenable,you can hear the melody throughout the ad-lib playing.

[@brisnana1]

I like them all: the Bill Evanses and the Art Tatums. My great unfulfilled wish was to have become a jazz pianist. Maybe in the next life!

[@hawkrider88]

Wonderful player for sure, a great loss.

[@johannhauffman323]

Wunderschön

[@denniswong7355]

gee whiz, I've never heard Tony Williams as restrained on this track and yet he's there but he never dominates the trio. And I sure miss Mulgrew Miller who to end of his short life never compromised on his artistic principles like some many musicians__I won't name but you know who they were. And if I'm not mistaken, that's Ira Coleman on bass. Anyway I'll miss Tony and Mulgrew--they must be jamming in heaven!!

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

Yes, Ira Coleman on bass... a trio after all is only 3 musicians, so for an 8 minute number you need to have some creative playing...

[@mygrandpiano9980]

AWESOME!

[@theHellzaPoppinjazz4u]

splendid.

[@faustinkibaboukibamba7143]

Appréciable !!!!

[@9VBGI]

Very good version: tight, controlled - and really swings.

[@najponkjazz9111]

Oh,Mulgrew killing again!!!! GREAT STUFF!!!!

[@wattberger]

Yes. Thank you for the beautiful post.

[@shingookudaira443]

6:40 Mulgrew missed one beet, but he fixed right away. Tony switched back to brushes beside playing triplets on hi-hat!!!

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

Was it one sugar beet, or one beetroot? -- Ever heard of the group The Beetles?

[@Ramshackled17]

Amazing how he comes back a beat earlier, but fixed it right in the next beat.

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

Some critics claim that Tony Williams makes too much loud noise with sticks on snare drum, but listen to him on this track tastefully content with his brush technique, which is as good as any drummer's...OK, at 2:40 he does transfer to sticks and ride cymbal !!

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

Who is Micheal Jordan please?

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

Did you mean Michael Jackass?

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

My sincere apologies!! --- I got horribly tangled-up and confused with Michael Jackson, the late singer, whereas you obviously meant the greatest basketball player of all time, the ex-Chicago Bulls player, Mr. Michael Jordan..... Rumours surfaced in the social media that he had been found dead, so do you think that he is dead, or is he alive?

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

Any which way you look at it, this is one of the greatest versions of On Green Dolphin Street which has ever been recorded, beyond any doubt.....

[@elodiedazur]

beau & intéressant.

[@georgesprudente3942]

Bien plus qu'appréciable. Merci.

[@bobdelord9921]

Thumbs Up!!!

[@austinford2339]

Thats cool how they alternate from C and Eb every chorus

[@ginguenga]

Obrigada

[@Unmoved12345]

Brilliant version of GDS.

[@dagostinoification]

A DAY, Alan Dawson his teacher said : magnifical ,Tony is magnifical .

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

If you hear it with the aid of a magnifying glass, the word is actually magnificent...... Alan Dawson needs lessons in grammar :)

[@mogurin3131]

Thank you. Enjoy the drum performance!

[@brunellarecchia4656]

[@caponsacchi]

I've always been conflicted about the key. I first heard it in live sessions in C, and then the beautifully chorded version by Bill with Miles in Eb. Lately, I had found the switch from Eb to C more satisfying than the reverse direction. I'm no Mulgrew, but it's nice to be vindicated by talent of this magnitude. Tony is, of course, an overpowering drummer, capable of making the cymbals do things never heard before. Nevertheless I miss the sure and rock-steady "chic" of an unfailing high hat cutting directly into the rhythm section. Frank Butler may be the most under-appreciated talent of them all--best heard when the engineer is Roy DuNann, who is there to capture meticulously placed hit on perfectly tuned snares while maintaining a dedicated mic on the hi-hat. (So few engineers know "swing" and, as a result, ignore the miking of the hi-hat.)

[@eltwistedtigre7968]

Apart from Ahmad Jamal's version, most versions seem to be in Eb. Miles, Wynton, OP, Bill Evans, are all in Eb. Kinda more fun to play in Eb too

[@qwerty12345678960]

I just noticed that they play the theme in Eb but they improvise in C

[@jakebaynie2312]

Cool you recognised that! Do you know if many other groups do that? Thanks for the idea anyway

[@paulwai2862]

Nothing is ever really lost, or can be lost, No birth, identity, form - no object of the world. Nor life, nor force, nor any visible thing; Appearance must not foil, nor shifted sphere confuse thy brain. Ample are time and space - ample the fields of Nature. The body, sluggish, aged, cold - the embers left from earlier fires, The light in the eye grown dim, shall duly flame again; "Walt Whitman"

[@phyllispetras3821]
