9. I thought you'd never ask.

Vanguard Jazz Orchestra: Willow Tree arr. Bob Brookmeyer

Dave Holland Quintet: Vicissitudes (Find the meter!)

Kurt Rosenwinkel Quartet: Zhivago

Tineke Postma: Summersong

Mikkel Ploug Group: 21st Century Folk Song (because the Kurt Rosenwinkel clip cuts off before Mark Turner's solo)

Maria Schneider Orchestra: Choro Dancado

John Patitucci and Bill Stewart: Giant Steps

Vanguard Jazz Orchestra: ESP (I think) featuring Dick Oatts

Jon Gordon Trio: Evidence

Nordic Connect: Sweet Dream

Mel Lewis Orchestra (1980) Vanguard Jazz Orchestra (2008): Las Cucarachas Entran.

(The Mel Lewis Orchestra became the Vanguard Orchestra when Mel Lewis Died in 1990. Rich Perry left the band in the early 80s then came back in the early 90s with a different sound and style. These videos are the best example I've found of that.)

Pat Metheny, Larry Grenadier, Bill Stewart: All The Things You Are

[tigereye]

19. New kid, Esperanza Spalding in Copenhagen.

(note: these are just excerpts, but it gives you an idea of what she can do.)

[tigereye]

20. pretty interesting!

I love that she plays and sings- looks like a souped up cello - or is it simply the newest form of upright bass?


Nice scatting, too....

[MilesColtrane]

21. That's just an electric upright bass.

Traveling with a full size acoustic is a dicey proposition these days.

Used to be, you could buy a seat ticket and take your bass into the cabin of the plane. Now it must be put in the cargo hold with the rest of the luggage.

Even the best road cases can't always protect your instrument.

The bass player who was backing up singer Nancy Wilson opened up his case after a flight from L.A. to Dallas a couple of years ago only to find his 100+ year old axe resembling kindling wood.

[tigereye]

22. I love to see women playing an upright

and I haven't seen it too much in the jazz world - of course there could be many women now who do, or moved over from classical cello, what have you. Thanks for telling about this woman, she sounds really interesting. I love how the younger players now are so versatile, and seem to be so skilled at an early age!


On a side note, one of my favorite psychobilly bands, the Horrorpops, features a singer who plays an upright while she sings. It's quite impressive.

[Burma Jones]

23. So What?
