- Here's a clip of Norman Brown performing at the Eastman guitar booth at NAMM 2013 in Los Angeles CA. Enjoy and "Stay Stay Smooooth". smoothjazzfamily
filmed using the new Zoom Q2HD - Hudba
This dude is BAD on that guitar! He is rollin' on those strings effortlessly and his sound is nice! Soulful, funky, and polished without sounding watered down. One of the best smooth jazz artists ever.
Best part is he looked like he REALLY enjoyed giving everyone this upclose live performance! Norman..you tha' man!
Every time I see him play he seems like a good spirit player , always smiling ..That's Great ...Sounds good
You know you're a badass when you're playing your own song, on your own signature guitar, in a guitar shop.
After The Storm was my introduction to Norman Brown, 20 plus years ago. Still loving his music
This man is too smooth for his own good.
Been loving his music for a LONG time! Get down Norman Brown!
Norman is a beast!!!!! Greatness
Wow, I wish I were at that store, listening to a ‘FREE’ concert by Norman Brown!
Are these people behind on a different planet, how can you not sit and listen to that!!!!
Awesome artist!!
goldstrings couldn't have said it better myself
Must be a deaf person convention!
@@kevinrhinehart9468 No! Just a racist one.Just like my hometown where over half the musicians are Black, but amongst a dozen or so Whites employed in Music stores you may or may not find one Black employed. Racism is still everywhere, all day long, 24/7/365. And only a few still slip through the cracks of oppression. And" Obama "has brought them(racist) 😠 mad and out of the closet.
No overdrive or high gain so it can’t be good
They're probably looking for the EVH booth 😄
I saw Norman at a San Diego Jazz Festival a few years back and nearly passed the hell out! The man is awesome at his craft!
The fabulous Norman Brown!!!!!
@Norman Brown , yes I often see him play Bebop lines.
I would lose my mind if I walked in there and saw him playing my favorite Norman Brown song. He’s definitely one of the best.
I grew up listening to this guy! He is so amazing. Where is this that everybody around isn't even paying attention to him! They have no idea what they're missing.
let them be!!! more for me!!!
They're looking for the Joe Satriani section.
All I really see is the amount of non recognition to this legend,cause on this joint he on Fire!
Most of the people there maybe doesn't even know who he is.. Not famous as Benson, but not less talented.. one of the best in his style.
Norman copied some of Benson and not the other way around! Most of today's musicians are clones!
He's like George's little brother.
Right ! People don't even know nor understand when they're in the presence of greatness 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️...
@@travelingman9763 I love George Benson too but he copied a lot of his style from Wes Montgomery 🤷🏾♂️. Every generation gets inspired from their predecessors. Just like in any other field.
@@travelingman9763 SOME of Benson... *SOME*.
But Norman has MANY MANY of his own riffs! He carved out his own style overall. And Benson would agree!
And don't get me wrong, I grew up on Benson and love him!! But I also love me some Norman!
And my dream came true to watch them perform together on that cruise ship video. Check it out, it's on CZcams
First time hearing Norman, damn that's some fresh ass playing
Watch the guy at the entrance, really excited he walked in and saw Norman Brown! Again this guy is a legend already, thanks for sharing, Lydian is my favorite track, Kenny B :-)
WTF he starts playing with the groove, sound, and magic of Wes & George, and people are still just poking around, disinterested. I would S*** my pants if I heard someone playing like that in some random trade show booth. Then again, this makes me wonder if I'm missing great things all around me.
Damn even his comping is transcendently wonderful. As I'm sitting here typing at home with a coffee, the break at 4:05 made me raise up outta my seat. Soooo nice.
Consider whose walking around in the background...You won't see Any Blacks walking around when they hear that type of Talent...they'll be Huddle Up Jamming with him....
Funky lick he threw in there 😎
@@williewilliams67143 blacks walked by in the first 50 seconds 🤔
@indalot8315 Are You Blind?...Those mid easterners or hispanics...
0:21 1st black guy in the background
0:29 2nd black guy in the background
0:51 3rd black guy in the background
1:28 4th black guy in the background
2:28 5th black guy in the background
2:52 1st black woman in the background
I know it's 10 year old cell phone recording but you'd have to be EXTREMELY racist to believe any of the tripe you've posted
@@williewilliams6714
first heard this guy in 1996,wow thats 25 years ago.he never ceases to amaze me.i wish he would come to zambia like earl klugh did.
one of the best guitarist for smooth jazz
One of my favorite Norman Brown songs! ❤️😊
Beautiful ...
I agree folks wandering aimlessly in the presence of a master guitarist. It always amazes me that you either have the call to music, the ear for music or you don't. When I was younger I used to go to bars and rooms full of good music and observe the crowds most of whom were there to be seen caring little for the aural treats. The bar waitresses would comment ... "i'am here every night I don't hear it". Again, music either plucks the strings of your heart or it doesn't. It's a God given gift to be either a listener or a performer. Cherish the awareness that you are one of those chosen few, believe me it'll get you through the good times and the bad.
cant get enough of smooth jazz i got almost all of his cds
Loved the improvisation! Norman Brown and Wayman Tisdale are my 2 favorite smooth jazz artists.
Norman Brown is one Super cool Brotha.
Norman is Toooooo smooooooth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
❤
The feeling that stems from your way of playing i unique and full of lot
Norman is awesome.
Great lines I love it
Awesome performance and Video, watching Norman do what he does best.. Jam! We need more of these, truly inspiring!
Norman (basted in Benson, spice of Montgomery, added a little bit Metheny, a pinch of Jordan, dashed with Ritenour, and it all turned out clean, crisp and) Brown!
Norman Brown, Awesome Guitarist. Every performance; a thrilling one!
to say the least of it,buttering you up away.its a novelty.let me remind u that I m guitar clinician,from west Africa
The untouchable Norman Brown!!!! A nice looking guitar and an even better sound!!! Play Doc....
Brilliance and half the people walking around are clueless to Mr. Brown's technical perfection, wish I could've been in attendance!
Love his music, it's very good and relaxing. He is very talented, look at him go with those chords.👌👍
Norman Brown.....you are awesome!!!!! I can't help but smile every time I hear you play. Your music has gotten me through some very hard time!!!! Thanks
Smoooooth!!! I'm an instant fan, Sir! Cheers!!!
That's one of my favorites. Great!!!
VISITED: 5:42 AM.
6 /26 /2019.
GOOD MORNING!!! SOUNDS!!!
NORMAN BROWN!!!! KANSAS CITY!!! BORN!!!
BLESSINGS!!! BROTHER!!!
JAM SESSION!!!!~
I’ll trying to play this beautiful music of Norman ,while he plays on background because Norman is my picture musical.
Puts the smooth in smooth jazz....Humble,most approachable guys you ever hope to meet.
Play this song all day at work.coming to austin,tx in may will be there cant wait to hear Mr Brown play in person.
Go Kraig Phillips and NORMAN's eNORMous talent. What a spirit!
These guys have no idea what an opportunity they are missing. Free gig with Norman Brown in a music shop, and they are walking around. People will pay for this.
Beautiful !
It is great to see the joy he still has playing a song that could very easily become a bore for others in his shoes who have to play the same songs over and over on a tour.
This man is awesome
So fluid...like mercury.
Up there with Tommy Organ, George Benson, and Earl Klugh...Norman Brown is beyond excellent! Mind blown performance with all these people walking around not once pay attention to excellence in front of their faces.
I don't consider this to be smooth jazz . I think it's just Jazz and very well written . Go Norman .
in one word, Talent
Straight Up cool....
Awesome I think Norman Brown is an awesome artist.👍🏾👍🏾
whomever video'd this...thank you so much! An unbelievable opportunity..a magnificent performance and lesson(s) in a 6:37 package!!
Really cool he let yall record him as well
too smooth for this world
I'm assuming the folk in the background have absolutely no clue who he is...anyway, keep making some of the best music out there Norman!!!
Yeah right? I would be sitting so close to him he wouldn't be able to play! lol
Marco Deuce my sentiments exactly....I would've been on the floor
That is because no one knows jazz or fusion jazz players and the music is almost disposable.
maybe they are the platform owners/the real money people... and they just make money off the talent stream... and they could give a jack about a performer or entertainer even if it was George benson….
even when he tunes the high E around the 3:30 mark...SUPER smooth! Norman is the man...he’s joy truly comes through his playing.
Haha yes! he even made it look and sound cool!
Amazing
Awesome best Norman.
He's a brilliant musician. I'm listening to 'Family' right now. Just an amazing song. I can recognize his songs because he has such a distinct style.
Thought of another way to describe Norman... He is entertained while he's entertaining us!
It's a delightful thing to see and enjoy.
He's the fan and the performer at the same time!
I met your son in law and daughter the other day here in Hawai'i. Great people. Great playing!
I would be following him around, asking him questions, and just taking it all in. Definitely my favorite guitarist of all time
this guy's killed it
It's almost as if the guitar is a part of him, so effortless is his playing style!
A lot of pentatonics applied with some bluesy technics and also a large amount of progressions in his playing. Note this first time I've watched this and my mind is blown away by his way of playing
Amazing!!! Thank you for this amazing performance! I love it! Norm is the best!!
Absolutely the best! Saw him twice in concert. What a memorable experience.
I have five of his original cd albums. Best
Another one of my all time favorite artists!
Got to see him live and would love to have another chance to do so. He radiates the love and joy he has for playing, just like the sun that brings us light every single day.
Isn't this guy just awesome?
Makes me smile every time I watch this video.
One of my favorite tracks from Norman Brown. He knows his way around the guitar 🎸. Thanks for posting this!
The sheer joy... Love Norman...
Beautiful Music , Playing wise he may fill Benson's shoes one day but I haven't heard him Sing and MR. BENSON has a Golden Voice . I don't think Anyone could Ever Fill his shoes , Thank GOD he's still with us .
I love him!
Feeling
One of my favorite Norman Brown tunes! Loved it!
Thank you so much for sharing this video. Norman is a PHENOMENAL Guitarist and Musician. Real music & talent at it's finest. It's stuff like this that the World is desperately lacking in Mainstream Music. How could ANY real music lover just walk on by and not even pay attention to this when they obviously hear it? Even if they don't have the class to know who Norman Brown is. Amazing performance here. Greatly respected
That's called MUSIC.
Very soothing, very good.
Keep it up man.
Shake your head...crack a smile....what more can you do.... marvelous!
Yaaassss Norman🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
love you music sir! Slayyyyyyy
Norman brown Just between us is my favorite!!!!
GOOOOOOOOOO! NORMAN!
I was thinking the same thing. How can they be ignoring this?!!!
Great great great.don't know where to start .I've fathoming your technical approach to jazz lmpro.for years,Its stunning,idiosyncratic,unique ,spiritual magic mazing
I LOVE NORMAN BROWN.... LOVE HIS MUSIC !!!
