  • Ron's music and his words are profound. "One of the things that makes music great, is a person who is really adept at his art, he has his own way of expressing that art, his sound is his paint brush!"

    RC has played in some of the most iconic albums of all time: Miles Davis' 'E.S.P', 'Miles Smiles', 'Sorcerer', 'Nefertiti', Herbie Hancock's 'Maiden Voyage', João Gilberto's 'Amoroso', Tom Jobim's 'Wave', 'Tide' and 'Stone Flower' and many others. He's the go to guy of Jazz's who's who. And his huge discography is the proof.

    Ron Carter is one advanced and complex dude....this man is possibly the greatest upright jazz bassist and yet no bass influences...mostly horns. Fascinating!

    Ron Carter was on faculty at the City College of New York. By the time I got there, John Patitucci was the new bass chair. But that didn't stop Ron from paying us a visit from time to time. He'd walk into the auditorium with his baseball cap turned over his eyes and send shivers down the backs of every bass player in the room. I mean, he seemed like a nice guy. But you could feel it in your bones when he walked into a room.

    A wonderful interview: a musician (as opposed to a journalist) asking a great jazz musician about his invaluable experiences and creative processes from a bygone age prior to the internet. Rick Beato has done the same. This is so overdue in this digital age and much needed; not only as a legacy but also for the future of jazz and all good music. Many thanks.🙏⛄️❄️🇬🇧😷🙏2022.

    By the way Dom...60 minutes is in desperate need of quality journalists and interviewers....I think they need YOU brother. Your interviewing style is so engaging and interesting. I know that Ron Carter is known to be difficult to interview ( what I have read) ...you have him openening up and talking about such amazing things that we never knew or thought of before. You're the best!

    Back in the early to mid 1970's I was studying at Berklee in Boston with Alan Dawson. Several times a week a young guy would come to my dorm room to discuss drums and especially the things Alan Dawson was teaching. He turned out to be a truly great drummer. That guy's name is Payton Crossley. He's been Ron Carter's drummer for quite some time now. :-) As always Dom... a really great interview!

    Thank you for this, Dom. As a drummer, Ron Carter is one of my bass heroes. His sound and style is unique. Ron is among the best, along with Paul Chambers, Reggie Workman, Sam Jones and Jimmy Garrison. From that period, of course.

    That bit at 26:05 is fascinating.
    Ive seen drums and cymbals categorized as “pitchless” instruments, but I think that hinders perception development. Ive heard Max Roach say he plays melodies on his drums. I think it’s this level of listening-“the cymbal has an overtone like F# and it seems to be clashing with my D-string” that really opens the door to the other side.

    Thank you Dom & team so much for this interview!!! As inspirational as Mr. Carter is for the breadth of contributions to the music world, I have always regarded him as an even greater inspiration for his humanity. His sense of integrity, open mindedness, and passion for self improvement are to be emulated; not just by musicians.

    It trips me out how much alike Ron Carter is to me! I too consider inspiring performances, CZcams videos, etc.. all as education as well and always try to take in as much as I possibly can from everyone around me. Been that way my whole life, lol. I have so much respect for this man! God I wish I could get at least one lesson from him while he’s still going strong.

    • @joewhittle801
      @joewhittle801 Před 4 lety +3

      Ron himself guided the conversation forward: ‘But that’s another story for another time’. The interviewer wasn’t the one to dismiss the topic or push the interview along, to this viewer he sat and listened to Ron. Having said that, the conversation would be a good one to have but it would take up a whole other session/s on its own

    The interviewer stopped Ron's race riff because he wasn't emotionally ready to hear those sounds, trust that.
