Chuck Nessa Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 My old friend. I have so many memories. He was a fine player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Friedman Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 What a treat! I bought J.R.'s Blue Note LP when it first came out and became an instant fan. After that I sought out the various other recordings with him as a sideman and then later as leader. I dug his Blue Note album so much, was disappointed that he only recorded that one as leader on that label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 The Blue Note is excellent, but quite a number of his releases on other labels are equally fine. I do have a soft spot for the record on HSM YouTubed above, though it's in a different mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I love Montrose, but on that Green Dolphin Street clip, he has many problems, including forgetting the changes; he keeps playing little flurries of notes when he is at a loss for what to do. No chops. Some moments of light, but not really there. He also seems to be suffering a little bit from the Art Pepper Syndrome, as in "how do I sound contemporary?" He is way more together on the Paradiso thing, though it's a little odd. Edited February 27, 2015 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Paradiso ws1969, the clip with Brodie was 1985. Not surpriesed that the earlier clip ismore together chops-wise. I don't really hear any "forgetting" the changes on GDS...I do note that they're playing it in Eb, sounds like he was (or had gotten) used to playing it in C, sometimes your muscle memory reverts to instinct rather than the moment. That and there's definitely rust in the mix. But I don't hear any outright forgetting, he always lands where he needs to when he needs to. Maybe it was just a brain fart caused by who knows what...I don't consider that "forgetting", though. But perhaps that's just semantics. For me, "forgetting" involves not just where you are, but where you need to land, everything, you just draw a blank. Not hearing that here. Perhaps I'm being too generous.
