he's a great bass player/composer/producer , and obviously a great human being too. Probably why he's a great musician, what a heart Marcus has
I love listening to Marcus. He knows so much and is so down to earth.
true dat
Marcus is a true Heavyweight, his playing and writing and production skills are Sublime
The Jazz Great Miles Davis spent his life passing on the next generation of Great Jazz players like Marcus Miller, Tony Williams, Wayne Shorter, and on to the rest of us. R.I.P. Miles and Thank you.
I could listen to people talk about their miles experiences all day. This was great.
Nothing like getting it from the source.
me too, man; the thing is - miles would advise us play our music instead
I love it as well. Did you catch Dennis Chambers's story about Miles wanting him to play in his band and calling his house and all that? If you search: Rick Beato DENNIS CHAMBERS Interview, you'll find it. He tells a bunch of fun stories in that one. The Miles story was at the end of the interview and its pretty funny:)
@@SuperBromberg Right on
I could listen to Marcus all day. Fantastic bassist and always seems like such a nice guy.
I love when (A) class musicians talk like regular people , or not talking in abstract.
Absolutely loved 5:00 - "If I give him some direction, he's going to ignore me anyway, but at least he knows what he's ignoring." This attitude sums up much of what I have heard about Miles Davis. Thank you, Marcus Miller!
Wow, that was the most intimate and insightful interview I've ever heard on Miles. What a treasure.
Marcus is a national treasure as well.
This is the best description of the difference between the "uninspired technician" and the truly-inspired "Artist!"
We Want Miles is still my favourite album by him
Mine, too. Changed my life
Marcus is the man, and so was Miles.
..Miles, Parker, Coltrane..the great masters and their disciples all share one thing in common..they are never satisfied with staying in one place for too long, never static, they are always exploring new frontiers, musicians who use their natural intuitions along with acquired knowledge over time..Miles didn’t want to play his “greatest hits” from the 1950s for the rest of his life..a short story.. I was in the classical music program at CUNY Queens College 1976 thru 1978 and i’m cutting through Colden Auditorium to meet a friend and I hear this electric bass walking through rhythm changes like there’s no tomorrow..it was Marcus on stage warming up!!..never forgot that since..stay safe and stay strong..New York May 11, 2021..
Now, I know Miles... and can listen to him, better than ever...
Only one Miles.
*What an eloquent and inciteful gentleman... A world class musician in his own right..., yet nothing but humble and grateful respect for his mentor...*
Yes, that's him.
Marcus Miller-GENIUS
thats a very good point he makes there about jazz and popular tunes ,and he's absolutely right, of course
yes!
What a treasure...I am 62 years old and have no idea what purchase Miles has on the minds of musicians today. I just hope they realize that he was one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century, and yet has much to teach us even now.
yes!
Very big boss talks about very very big boss... very very inspiring. #realpeoplererealmusic
Very very true.
Maybe the most informative interview on working with Miles ever. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great to hear Marcus on Miles.
yes!
Marcus playing on The man with the horn is some of the best electric bass playing ever. Notes, groove, timing, sound and the overall mix. Masterpiece.
Thank you Marcus for sharing your experience and insight about Miles. Amazing!
More to come!
Fantastic, every miles fan should hear this
I one million percent don’t rememeve making this comment or seeing this video. Maybe I’ll see it again one day
Thank you. 🙏🏾👍🏾
Now that's a great interview.
Worth listening to. Definitely.
I was born on the third of that year. Damn I love Miles
Me, too
priceless!... thank you again
When Miles played with Prince at Jazz Festival at Montreux 2009.Prince got Sheila E.on drums,Renalto on keys,Sonny Rollins and Larry Graham BOTH on bass.Mid show Miles blows the roof off and Prince in a passionate moment kisses Miles on his 3 RD EYE. Jazz in quantum space !Miles was cool PERsoNIFIED!✨🎼🙏🏼🎼✨🔥🔥🔥
Amazing Interview, needless to say this gives you a piece of the picture; A piece of the past.
I just turned on the mic, MM did the rest.
I would say there’s no doubt, we’ve got to Know Officially Pl., Marcus Miller in that small top-tier group of brilliant Kings and Queens of the music. He’s got the same insight, sensitivity, burning intensity as Mr. Davis himself - i’m sure that’s why Miles loved him and made him an equal partner, not just a producer or sideman. This is a really great interview Bret, THANK YOU!
amazing stuff in there. Miller and Miles, wow
Thank you! Great interview!
Great video. I could listen to Mr. Miller talk about jazz all day...
Fascinating fellow Mr. Miller.
Wow! This is gold!!!
Love Marcus! The guy is soooo talented. I saw him live some years ago. The guy can play nearly every instrument on stage. That surprised me. I just pictured him as a bassist.
He can do it all.
@@JazzVideoGuy I was astounded at how talented he was.
Why did you think that? Is it because he's black?
@@unknownkingdom WTF kind of comment is that? I was introduced to Marcus as a bass player, nimrod. I first recall hearing him on Luther Vandross' first album. He played the bass. When I saw him live, he played all these other instruments. What does race have to do with it?
@@tommonk7651 what doesnrcae have to do with it? You tell me. You're the one who was "surprised" that this musician could play more than one instrument. You're the one talking about "picturing" people. And you still haven't explained WHY you were surprised. Or what caused you to "picture" him in the first place. So you tell me what race has to do with it
Excellent interview. Thanks for posting.
Listen to Wayne Shorter talk about Miles during the Steely Dan AJA album documentary . Wayne Shorter quoted Miles “ Never give to much away, don’t where your heart on your sleeve” . That’s the Short version of what Marcus Miller is trying to covey. In other words it’s about the Music that he lived
Well said, Mr. Alan.
Absolutely brilliant material here!
so cool. thanks Marcus!
Wow! Amazing stuff
Great interview, excellent insights
so much magic in here! especially dug the Mr. Pastorius story
Love these biography type interviews, especially with giants like Miles.
Glad you like them!
What a great interview!..insight on how miles worked
This is fantastic.
Thank you for this!
This is great, thank you so much for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I sat in miles black leather seat where he practice on everyday it was at his brothers house. After that i played my trumpet on another dimension
Thankyou for posting!!!😁😁😁😁💪💪💪💪💪
You bet!
could listen to this very articulate cat for hours
He has the stories to tell.
Thanks for posting 🙏🙏🙏🙏
My pleasure
Very interesting interview. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That was brilliant, thanks for putting this up! :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is brilliant. Thanks!
Thank you!
That was a real treat. Thanks 😎
Glad you enjoyed it
Great interview
Thanks!
Time after Time....
exactly
Thanks so much for posting.
No problem!
Love Marcus Miller, listen to his playing on all the music he played on and U realise that, Victor, Stanley, any other ain't got nothing on him. The shit he played on many records are so brilliant that to this day he is the Bass Player I listen to at the most. I am not talking about his solo works but rather the stuff he played on like Lonnie Liston Smith, Tom Browne, Lenny White, Roberta Flack, Luther Vandross, Grover Washington Jr., David Sanborn, Sunfire, Bobby M., Midnight Star, The Spinners a.k.a Detroit Spinners and I could go on for days. He is simply fantastic. And he has got his own style and signature sound.
I saw the both of them in concert TUTU 1986 Biscarrosse not too far from Bordeaux France 🇫🇷
Really great stuff here!!
Much appreciated!
Fascinating. Working with Miles, what an experience indeed!
Great video. Thanks Marcus, for always taking time to teach and help other's learn.
Marcus is a wonderful guy
Great video! Thank you. ☝️🥴👍
Glad you liked it!
Even though it doesn't get the same respect as other Miles releases, I've always liked The Man with the Horn.
Great song
That is appreciated by people with open minds and ears
I love The Man With The Horn.
Yeah!
Thanks for sharing this interview!
These insights about Miles, how he worked with bands, with Marcus...
Pure gold...
You know, people usually think of music as some kind of product "to take"...and this interview brings so many things about connections between people involved in creative process - that spiritual part "seemingly" behind, but which pops up when you listen it.
Thanks❤
Yes!
Very Profound Love Miles and Marcus love hearing how it camera together Miles really was from Bebop to Hip hop all points in between I've heard as a kid Uncles saying he might be arrogant but he wasn't that is h
Funny see my shoes like em never heard these stories and I can relate to studying People sad I really didn't get Miles Until I matured more that was right after he Passed priceless stories .Marcus I've seen Play Killer Musician Bassist
Wow!
Thank you for this ...🙏
You're welcome 😊
this was a good interview
thank you
This is great.
Splendid 👌🏿 ♥️
Wonderful little interview. I love how clear and unfussy Miller talks about his experiences
and the pointers from Davis that he has taken to heart in his own work.
agreed
MM is articulate with words, too!! 🎶 😊
Thank you for posting this! MM is one of the contemporary greats.
I was very lucky to attend their excellent concert at Avery Fisher in 1981 with Miles, Marcus Miller, Mike Stern, Bill Evans, Al Foster, and Mino Cinelu. I thought "This is the music of the future."
I was also at that show. Blew my mind.
Love the truth sharing. Thank you !
You are so welcome
Brilliant post , sir
Many thanks
Miles Davis once said my dad was one of the best trumpet player he knew & learned from as with Chet Baker and Lena Horne just some of the people my dad played & taught music to,my mom named me after Miles ,she came up with David Miles kind of a play on names
What’s your dad’s name?
Excellent insight into Miles and Marcus.Marcus is a giant.
For many years I didn’t know Marcus could talk, he would just give you this frown look.But found out he’s really kool
Siesta is still my favorite album of all time in a way
That is a great album.
Fantastic!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm 7 yrs elder to Miller and have been a gigging musician since age 14, when I played blues guitar in a smoky little club in Madrid Spain. I like Marcus and the interview. He's like a dear friend whom I never quite met in person.
Whiskey jazz club ?
@@RanBlakePiano JJ's. Pronounced 'hota hota' in spain. Another place called 'Dolly's.' and several others. This was waaaay back around '67, ....and then I went back after HS (70, '71) and joined a few bands there, the best was called 'The Gong' with spanish gypsies. I was the only white kid. Those guys would party all their waking hours. Right after we released our first album, the guys were so jazzed - they all went out to party at 3, 4, 5, am and got busted for doing acid and went to jail. I was the only one with a gf, so I didn't join the party. Our manager got another group of guys together in a few days and toured to promote the album which got into the top 5 in Spain. Wild times. My story in e-book titled, 'C.I.A. Brat.'
@@brahmburgers great memories but sorry your liberty taken away for ,I hope,veryvshort period
Superb!
Thank you! Cheers!
i came to this realisation when i read the autobiography and how he described how he could stay relevant over so many generations
then it hit me: jazz has always been modern retelling of the old stories, aka, pop tunes from previous generations
just like Marcus says here "you dont need an education to understand it"
if it's 'your song' and you hear someone else play it in a new way, you're already connected to it, like it or not.
it's a good place to start with art, from a feeling
well spoken
I LOVE this
you have excellent taste
i think he meant "easy moe bee " a notable hip hop producer who produced for miles ... not eazy e.
I saw this band in Boston in 1981. Blew my mind!
no doubt
Great interview, at first I didn’t know what you meant by spilling some tea
Glad you enjoyed it
Great habla, Marcus! Thanks.
Gracias
6:00 ... That is why I connected with him and his music so much. Takes one to know one!
It's 2021 and Marcus is carrying the torch of Bird's legacy that Bird passed on to Miles, then Miles to Marcus. This man is keeping 80 years of jazz and black history alive.
It's called genius, superbly!! Miles❤🎺⚘
Thanks for sharing. I am listing to the audio book of his autobiography. I highly recommend it. Either audio or the physical book.
I'll check it out!
Great interview!
thank you!
Marcus Miller remains a major voice in music. I enjoy his programming on SiriusXM.
So true.
saw him in T.O. at The Okeefe Center, they started w/ Fat Time ..Al Foster came out ,started wicked groove then MM came out and started playing slap harmonics and groovin', blew me away SOOO in the pocket,wicked!
Great insight on Miles from a Master bassist! Enjoyed him on the 2020 Blue Note Jazz cruise along with Christian McBride! Miles was my jazz idol as I was growing up in the 60s!
Where’s the pork pie hat?
Out to the cleaners that day
“If I give him some direction, he’s going to ignore me anyway!” Ha. Hilarious.
It’s hilarious and it’s also a great insight into their modes of communication. Miles settled the session leader issue and swept away the ego anxiety with a single gesture. And established trust. But it wasn’t about role reversal. Miles wasn’t asking for a prescription, he was asking for what he could play against, around, or through - if that makes sense. What a great interview!
Miles Davies says " ..call me when you need trumpets". Doesn't get much better than that!
ha!
Play this!!!!! kikiki
