- Here is a double transcription! Chet Baker scats on "Just Friends" and plays a trumpet solo on it as well, live with Stan Getz in Stockholm 1983. Incredible to see the lines and how it compares to each other. You'll need to do a bit of transposing, I kept the scat solo in C but the trumpet solo in Bb, as that is the common standard for that instrument. You can shoot me later.
The full video this was transcribed from is here: • Stan Getz and Chet Bak...

Something I have been wanting to do for a long time: transcribe a Chet Baker scat solo in combination with a trumpet solo of his on the same tune. I have many thoughts on the comparison, but I want to hear what you all think!
Let me know in the comments.
Oh yes, it seems that about 80% of people that watch regularly are not subscribed yet. It would be zero cost to you but a huge help to us if you would do so. It's a personal goal of Timothy and I to get to 100k subs before the end of the year.

Well an easy thing to say/see is he sings like he thinks of his voice like a trumpet and in a similar range and feel to his lines. (I have to shoot later, for the key, but won't because of gratitude for your transcription(s))
@@paulgibby6932 I agree. I didn't analyze the notes, but he seems to scat in the same style and level of detail that he blows. Really impressive. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that he played what he heard. This is quite the demonstration of it.
Sometimes I watch these videos and think to myself: "I can do that"....then I open up my mouth and...well...This doesn't come out. Lol.
😂
One of the coolest of cool cats. So relaxed, no matter the tune.
it is actually insane how much of a solid understanding Chet had about soloing and improvisation. Dude is a mastermind
Love the moment at 0:41 where he goes to the blues scales over the G6, and the pianist parrots his line right after. Awesome.
Have been listening to this version of Just Friends a short while ago - what a coincidence! Indeed, Chet's melodicism is something musicians can all learn from.
Love me some Chet Baker
I believe that's the reason why his solos sounds very melodic and organic. While there are some common bebop phrases, the solos aren't conceived from patterns or theory. Ultimately, to make something sound very musically, you'll need to trust your ear and intuition, and Chet was full of it.
There is video with Flea (from RHCP) when Chet sings the melodies of Daahoud and Joy Spring. That's the way he ingrained the jazz sound in his ear and that's what's eventually comes up in theses solos you transcribed.
Thanks for the clip!
Fully BAKED ..
Gone over twice.. still pickin bits...
You always bring us real fine music to listen to, you're so cool. Thanks for posting.
Thanks Paddy! Love me some Chet!

Bro your videos are amazing i have learned many of my tenor sax solos with your videos!! Keep on that your so cleaan🤟🤟
thanks! Great to hear you're studying with them 🔥
I love Chet's music, so thank very much for this video. He was such a beautiful soul filled with passions and demons. May he rest in peace, as he deserves.
May I recommend you a very nice cover done by an Argentine actor/musician called Alfredo Casero? You can find it by searching "Alfredo Casero - I remember you", here in CZcams. The trumpet solo was in charge of "Gillespie" (the Argentine one, Marcelo Rodriguez 😅) and the bassist was Javier Malosetti, another monster. I shall warn you that the entire album was made in a comedy key (rioplatense humor), nevertheless, it has many wonderful tracks. Hope you like and enjoy it.
Hey thanks, just checked that suggestion out. Sounds very unique and athmospheric. Great vibe!
Love it when people bring some humor to jazz, lovely and well done musically
@@SharpElevenMusic I'm glad you liked it. You can find great music done by Alfredo and you'll always find a lot of humor and creativity in his tones as well as great renditons to iconic artists. Besides, he always worked with fantastic musicians, most of them deeply involved in the Argentine jazz "underworld".
Hope you have a great week and thank you very much for your videos!!
Namaste 🙏🏼
I'm sad they took this off of spotify
Do vinyls or CDs, nobody will take it from you
wait, doesn't it sound exactly one tone lower than the transcription?
Trumpet is pitched in Bb, a whole step lower than the written music it plays from.
I don’t get the title
"you should be able to sing what you play" is a very standard type of advice in jazz education and whilst it's a great motto, I don't think many people really can do it. And, at least not as well as Chet Baker ever could
hoppe that helps putting it in context

Chet could play the trumpet like he was scatting and vice versa. Some people can shred, but it doesn’t really feel organic. Chet’s lines feel natural true, unlike some who can only shred and don’t have the feel. It is all a bit vague haha.
The music school makes everyone do that. Teachers make you do it too. I just play what I feel and sometimes it doesn't sound so good. I don't know what the notes are in relation to the chords. So sue me.
My lawyer has emailed yours. You have no idea what’s coming buddy
Most of professional musician can sing what the play
He plays what he sings though
