.:.impossible Posted April 12, 2006 Report Posted April 12, 2006 I had a dream last night that I was playing rhythm guitar for Eddie VH. The auditorium was nearly empty, the drummer was late, and the rest of the band came out dressed in big fuzzy bear suits. Courtney Love was hanging off my arm while I was waiting to play. I always love that dream. Quote

Jim R Posted April 12, 2006 Report Posted April 12, 2006 I already tried this recommendation in a separate thread (which promptly plummeted off the board), but it's just too good not to try it again. The quality is reason enough to check it out, but the quantity is mind-blowing (wish I could put it on a DVD!): M2/S videos I also got a kick out of this guy... not the greatest player in the world, but he's got a nice touch and fine sound, and it's just plain cool to have the opportunity to check out a talented cat like this from a distant (to me) land: Dick Onstenk- jazz guitarist Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Ok, so that's Kenny Burrell on the end... who's in the middle? Is that Pass? Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 i'm on youtube i'm playing eruption by eddie van halen Awesome. Didn't we see that guy at the Skybar, Joe? Quote
marcello Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Ok, so that's Kenny Burrell on the end... who's in the middle? Is that Pass? No, that's Barney Kessel. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Ahhhhhhh! Thank you! Does anyone know what that video is from? Quote
Jim R Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Ronnie Scott's, circa 1969 (?). Whoever uploaded it either didn't have the whole thing (all three stretch out and trade fours on Kessel's "Blue Mist"), or just wanted to feature their personal favorite (Green), who they refer to as "under the radar". To the general public perhaps (duh), but not in contemporary jazz circles when compared to Burrell and Kessel! Anyway, the video used to get traded via VHS copies amongst jazz guitar nuts, but it's been commercially available now for some years. Too bad this person did a hatchet job on it. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Another important question: Is that the only footage of Green that anyone here has ever seen, or heard about?? (Would be kinda surprising if that's all there is of Green.) Quote
Ron S Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 (edited) Ronnie Scott's, circa 1969 (?).

Anyway, the video used to get traded via VHS copies amongst jazz guitar nuts, but it's been commercially available now for some years. Too bad this person did a hatchet job on it. The audio of this Kessel/Green/Burrell performance ("Blue Mist", recorded at Ronnie Scott's in '69) is now available--with excellent sound--as a "bonus" track on this Gambit CD: Edited April 13, 2006 by Ron S Quote
Jazz Kat Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 This site is awesome!! There's tons of Wes Montgomery preformances, plus a preformance by the Pat Metheny Group in 1978! with Mark Egan and Danny Gotlieb. Plus good Miles stuff. Not that many b3 videos. Quote

(Would be kinda surprising if that's all there is of Green.) Anybody know of any other Grant Green footage of any sort?? Just wonderin'. Quote
Joe G Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 That little clip was fun to watch. What I wouldn't give for concert footage of Green, Jones, and Young! Quote
