about 11 years ago, i transcribed joe pass's night and day from the virtuoso album, by ear, note by note. it was great, learned a lot from doing that work. no idea how to play it now though since it's been so long, would have to re learn it. To any guitar player who wants to upgrade their skills, i definitely recommend transcribing some of joe's work, you will with out a doubt become better . In general , transcribing by ear, any legendary guitarists work, will make you a better player no matter the genre/style.
I was thinking to do that right now. There's a lot of beautiful stuff to learn from this man, a lot, and playing with him and try to understand his mind, his accent and feeling in every note and harmony it's the best way. Well, let's do that.
Joe Pass ,the greatest jazz guitarist to walk the planet.I was fortunate to see him perform many times. Thank you Mr. Pass for a lifetime of great jazz music.
I subscribe to your every word! There has never been such an outstanding guitarist before! Joe professor of guitar jazz is like Bruce Lee in oriental arts - like Gagarin in flying - like Che Guevara among all revolutionaries!
Talks because he has to... He just cant wait to play guitar. So he talks in a way that explains everything you need and want to know without being confusing and a lot of words. Just as he would his guitar, although, if he cant wait for the outro of the song, he still will play the current section as best he can because of its importance. Now going back to when he is speaking, he doesn't want to (I believe) but he will and also, he will make it something worth hearing. That is what makes him an ultimate being. Knowing the importance of everything, even the highest level of useless. Wouldn't you say that is how he got so dang good @ the guitar? Lol Marry had a little lamb is a tune he can probably play on every instrument in every key, but we won't get to hear that ever = D
The difference between the Master and and the rest is ..how to play the melody without overkilling it with zillion jazz chords...complex but at the same time simple...BRAVO..JOE....!!
jOE PASS EL MEJOR GUITARRISTA DEL PLANETA TIERRA. ANDRES SEGOVIA DIJO QUE HABIA MUCHOS TÉCNICOS INTEPRETES DE LA GUITARRA PERO MUSICOS HABÍA MUY POCOS. JOE PASS SE INSCRIBE EN LA LISTA DE LOS MÁS GRANDES MUSICOS DE LA GUITARRA. SU INSPIRACIÓN ES DIGNA DE LOS DIOSES DIOS LO BENDIGA AHORA Y SIEMPRE¡¡
I'm pretty sure he's wrong about this being used in the movie Frankenstein (1931). But it is used as background music in The Mummy (1932), when Helen is gazing out to the Pyramids.
"...it occured to me when I was with someone very special in my life..." I came across this video about 9 years ago, when I was with someone very special in my life. Its strange, how then it meant something completely different than it does now. Its a bit haunting how deep and beautiful it is.
Joe Pass was almost correct. “Beautiful Love“ was written by Victor Young and Others. The song was used as a theme in the 1932 film “The Mummy”, starring Boris Karloff.
There is not much one can say. Perhaps if this was the only recorded track, of dear Joe, extant, it would tell us all. Sheer beauty. We won’t see, or hear his like again x x .
divine, intense, unique sound...I love him. In my toughness one of my best vynil (also if I already was a saxophone/flute/clarinet player( was and still is VIRTUOSO: Joe FOR EVER!
"Beautiful Love" is a popular waltz composed by Wayne King, Victor Young and Egbert Van Alstyne with lyrics by Haven Gillespie , AND NOT DIZZY GILLESPIE !!
"It appears as a love theme both in the 1932 film The Mummy (when it is played during the ball sequence where Helen is telepathically called to the museum), and in the film Hotel Continental, also 1932"
Most of my idols are dead now - if I could turn back time Joe would be one of the few guys I would ask for guitar-lessons - he was passionate, humble and a true master.
Error. no es de Dizzy Gillespie. es un tema de 1931, la música es de Wayne King, Victor Young y Egbert Van Alstyne. La letra es de Haven Gillespie (nada que ver con Dizzy)
@FenderJaguarmaster I'm an old guitar player, who isn't as good as he should be. The only one you mentioned whom I didn't see and speak to was... well no name dropping. They are all great guys, and great players in their different ways. But for pure melodic form, and invention I believe Joe Pass to be the Master. Such a shame he can't still entrance us.
'BEAUTIFUL LOVE' CON JOE PASS (COMPOSICIÓN VICTOR YOUNG): Ahí está Joe, dialogando con el público durante una de sus presentaciones como guitarra solista (sin ningún otro instrumento)... Cuenta que Beautiful Love, una de las más conocidas Jazz Ballads o standard romántico muy versionado, la escuchó por primera vez en un cine, que fue a ver, con una mujer que era especial para él, una de esas películas de Frankenstein muy antiguas jeje. Gran sorpresa al escuchar en una película de terror u horror, una canción tan romántica. Es que Frankenstein tuvo su amiga o una joven, me acuerdo, por la que tenía un sentimiento... Joe Pass pasó por momentos duros, como toda persona, pero eso le pulió. Fue conocido, aparte de ser un virtuoso guitarrista, como una excelente persona. Muy humano y tranquilo 🎸❤❤
Pretty sure that's the Ibanez JP-20 he used while under contract to them. You can see where he's covered up the Ibanez logo himself because he was in dispute with them. The DQ has a cutaway at the top of the head-stock - this one doesn't. And the DQ has the name in the inlay pattern, not separated above it. And at about 3:30 you can make out JP-20 on the truss rod cover.
Joe pass incontestablement le plus grand guitariste de jazz de tout les temps 🎸🎷🎺🎻🎼🥁🥁🎸Jimmy raney, Chuck Wayne, lenny breau, ank garland ,jhonny smith, Howard roberts, billy bauer, Oscar moore, René thomas, george VAN eps,herb ellis, tal farlow, Charlie Christian 🎸👍vive le jazz ❤
I recognize the trademark fat f-holes of Ibanez. Their newest jazz guitars (as of 2013) have slimmer and more detailed f-holes and closely resemble the L-series Gibsons. But notice there is no pick guard. The Ibanez guitars are excellent. I have the AK95 violin burst, no longer in production. It resembles the Gibson ES-175 with the marquis cutaway.
Joe and Wes Montgomery 2 jazz greats will never see again there are others also like bill frissell from frisco who is also masterclass check him out you won’t be disappointed!
The guitar is a D'Aquisto custom made by the luthier himself for Joe Pass. I've seen other photos it doesn't have the top logo-- a one off, when you're the best you can get the best. I always liked him on that old es-175, a classic for a class act.
Haven Gillespie was the lyricist in 1931, not Dizzy Gillespie, who would have been just 14 years old. Haven Gillespie also wrote "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" a few years later.
I'm curious why he covered the brand on the headstock, I've seen many of his performances and can't remember if he's ever done that before. Any ideas anyone?
I have heard that some famous artists (maybe not just guitarists) will do that if they have become associated with a particular brand of instrument (ie, "endorsement") but then the relationship goes south. To me, it's kind of pointless, because you're still playing that company's instrument, just with a covered label (and anyone who knows guitars will recognize the brand anyway). Why not just play a different brand of guitar? To me that would pack more of a punch.
Tienes razón, muchos hombres ven "Gillespie" y piensan que tiene que ser Dizzy. Que bueno que no hay demasiados tocadores jazz qui tienen nombres latinos... "Cual? De que Hernandez hablas? Que Gonzalez?" etc., jajaja. Espero que el video estaba muy bien para ti también!

That is impressive that you have the skill to even do that my dude

The way he talks is the way he plays: modest. A great personality.
Yes, you are right, and i would say : modest but giant and brillant thru his art.
Talks because he has to... He just cant wait to play guitar. So he talks in a way that explains everything you need and want to know without being confusing and a lot of words.

This is so beautiful. I've been listening to it for the last 10 years. Never gets old.♥️
The way he keeps time is amazing!
Just the right balance of beautiful articulation, technique and chops without all the showing off...
Beautiful Love - Remember Joe..Pass.R.I.P.
hearing joe is like your first kiss yourtrue love and a broken heart.you never forget.
Yo Joeeeee👍🙏🔥 His humility combined with Genius wow!😎🙏👍🔥
2:37-3:00 has got to be one of Joe's darkest sounding passages. Straight Babylonian
How do you know it was Babylonian
@@Coldcloves i thunk it den I sunk it
Обалденно! Слов нет. Великий Мастер!!! Вкуснятина!
This compositions show how much classical impresionist like Debussy, Eric Satie and Ravel very huge influence on many musicians in 20th century.
Joe's technique is very much Classical guitarist technique when he doesn't use a pick. He's just incredible
It's always a great pleasure to listen Joe Pass...
Without question - this is the most brilliant and beautiful version of this classic song. Maestro never sounded or expressed better.
Joe's shadow at 5:07 to 5:57 is symbolic of his spirit.
The difference between the Master and and the rest is ..how to play the melody without overkilling it with zillion jazz chords...complex but at the same time simple...BRAVO..JOE....!!

Oh wow - this is really really beautiful
Every chorus more beautiful than the last one.
Everything he does in this song is perfectly spot on.
Wonderful musician. I love you Joe !
es indescriptible la emoción con que toca
I'm pretty sure he's wrong about this being used in the movie Frankenstein (1931).
But it is used as background music in The Mummy (1932), when Helen is gazing out to the Pyramids.
no words to say ! beautiful Joe
"...it occured to me when I was with someone very special in my life..."
I came across this video about 9 years ago, when I was with someone very special in my life. Its strange, how then it meant something completely different than it does now. Its a bit haunting how deep and beautiful it is.
If anyone is interested, I transcribed and tabbed Joe's take on this great tune. You can find it on my chanel.
i'm into this song because of your videos! thanks for what you do!
Playing jazz on guitar is as complicated as Algebra,,and I’m in awe of Joe Pass…
Joe Pass was almost correct. “Beautiful Love“ was written by Victor Young and Others. The song was used as a theme in the 1932 film “The Mummy”, starring Boris Karloff.
Victor Young (also When I Fall in Love,Stella by Starlight,etc...),JOE!! (great,great guitarist)

I thought Helmet did it first
perfecto... te hace soñar....
Beautiful ❤
love you joe..
daaaammmnn..
Beautiful love es la mejor version en guitarra que escuche'.
Divino!!!!!
@amassouharm Absolutely! He is like the Bill Evans of guitar.
I thought this written by Bill Evans🙄. So this song is very old
Most of my idols are dead now - if I could turn back time Joe would be one of the few guys I would ask for guitar-lessons - he was passionate, humble and a true master.
Dizzy Guitar if there’s only a few guys you would ask for guitar lessons your should also ask for humility lessons
Yeah me too. And Julian Bream😂 in classical.
amazing!
Awesome!
The best really !
this guy can tell your the story of life
Wonderfully talented…
Gorgeous
Merci pour cette douceur
Eterno
Genius!
Joe Pass was a great man RIP.
very nice music,thank you!
He is alive, living in my house with other guitar legends.
un des grands guitaristes que j'aime écouter
Mas que genial
un des grands guitaristes que j'aime Écouter

Good catch. great player on any guitar!
Didn't see your correction.
I knew Haven when he was in his 80's. He helped our family a lot and wanted to marry my mother!
Very humbling to watch someone like Joe Pass play. Total control of the electric guitric
Certainly "The Greatest"!!!
aah i see what you mena know, yes i can play the original standard but i was looking for Joe's arrangement, I'm in love with it. Thanks anyways!

Yeah he's influence to me. In Jazz. Simple and logic.

El más grande guitarrista de Jazz
*in awe*
did he get a little emotional towards the end or is it just me?
IN AWE
I'd listened this a few years ago. Beautiful. But now the video is damaged. Could you please re-post this gem? Thank you

in the classe international
Joe and Wes Montgomery 2 jazz greats will never see again there are others also like bill frissell from frisco who is also masterclass check him out you won’t be disappointed!
Oscar Peterson and Chet Atkins is great too😁.
The author of Beautiful Love is a Victor Young :)
Victor Young, Wayne King, Egbert Van Alstyne, Haven Gillespie.

no es de Dizzy Gillespie, fue co escrita por Haven Gillespie, Victor Young, Wayne King y Egbert Van Alstyne.
The spreadsheet for the standard? just google "beautiful love jazz" and go to images
Written by Victor Young, Wayne King & Egbert van Alstyne (music) and Haven (not Dizzy!) Gillespie (words.) 1931.
Pilas... a pesar que Dizzy era un gran musico, el no compuso el standar..
Lo hizo Victor Young.. igual, gracias por subir
Haven (no Dizzy) con V. Young, Wayne King y Egbert Van Alstyne,
well you can easily find the spread sheet
where?! I can't find anything!!
@nuke97 Joe Pass is great
Expresividad instrumental, más textura musical, más estructura armónica, igual a Joe Pass.
Haven Gillespie was the lyricist in 1931, not Dizzy Gillespie, who would have been just 14 years old.
Haven Gillespie also wrote "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" a few years later.
from when and where is this concert from?
Was that a Joe Pass signature guitar he was playing? It looks like one but I am unsure.
It was Haven Gillespie that wrote the lyrics . Not Dizzy . Same thing happens with
'You go to my head' .
victor mature
What guitar is he playing? Epiphone Joe Pass model?
anyone know is a score is available somewhere for this amazing piece?
He's improvising most of it
4:18 wow
I'm curious why he covered the brand on the headstock, I've seen many of his performances and can't remember if he's ever done that before. Any ideas anyone?

The Bob Ross of jazz music
Or Arthur Cadbury
Hauru's Moving Castle. Nice.

Why did they censor the headstock logo?
He may not have been endorsing Ibanez anymore at that time.
a bunch of people are mentioned as an author in the real book
0:56
Which is the tonality of this version?
A minor
