I'm a simple man...
I see John Coltrane and Stan Getz and I press like. Still here in 2020!
same brother i actually watch this everyday loll
Don't forget about Oscar Peterson! Legend.
I also do it in 2021
same in 2022
I like the way Getz and Coltrane smiled at each other right before they started to play. With this much talent in one place, you know it is going to be special.
That was a superb exchange of glances. May they all Rest in Peace. Jimmy Cobb, just left us last Sunday 24th May. He's joined his Jazz buddies on the other side, where they will continue jamming. Ain't we fortunate, to be enjoying their legacy. RIP Jimmy Cobb🌹🙏🌹
And Getz never seemed to smile, either. Not sure about Coltrane.
@@goddessgraceful1618 The other side, jamming. Brought tears to my old eyes.
I love how Coltrane repeats a phrase and keeps playing it, but each time in different and complex ways, but still being the same essence.

Gives the listener something to follow as he develops !
Superb
That’s what they do in Indian classical music which he was listening to
He was a master of hitting high and low notes in quick as a lick. Stan Getz was no slouch. Also a great tenor man.
Every time I hear Oscar Peterson play, I fall a little bit more in love with him. XOXO
And what a great drummer Jimmy Cobb is. He's perfect for this amazing group of musicians.
One of the few reasons why ears were created...
LOL!
what a great line Ms. Pavuk, I will have to "borrow". On that "note", have you ever heard Jimmy Heath's "A Sound for Sore Ears" ?
After reading your comment, I chortled so powerfully my dentures flew out of my mouth and bounced off the noggin of the postman who was delivering mail.
I'll remember this. Very well stated.
I first heard this when I was just 9 years old. I'm 86 now. Such legends coming together, it's truly magnificent.
But if this was recorded in 1960, and you’re 86, then you were born in 1934, which means you would have been 9 in 1943, so you couldn’t have heard this when you were 9, unless you mean just the song Hackensack?
Look at you Sherlock wannabes.
@@s3fruit969 thanks for doing the hard work for me I also wanted to figure this out
and why do we have only crap now. you would think the black community would be celebrating these wonderful masters, instead they only want easy nonsense this is such an important legacy and not even mentioned by black leaders.
@@s3fruit969 Nope - the tune was written in 1954 by Monk. It's a contrafact of the tune Oh, Lady Be Good! it was first "stolen" (by which I think is meant the harmonies were used as a basis for the new melody laid over it)by Mary Lou Williams in 1944, when our (now) 88 year old (hopefully!) friend was 9 or 10.
Anyone who in any way shape or form characterizes this as Coltrane "versus" Getz knows NOTHING ABOUT JAZZ. This ain't nothing but love and respect, empathy and outreach, the sound of joy and surprise.
that's true; I'm going to believe that the comment was a joke. They both have thier voice... Unlinke today's players, two tenors can't play together and you can tell who's who almost never... It's like they're playing two different instruments!! I absolutely love it!
If you've ever been to a jazz club you know there is always an element of competition when two players of the same instrument exchange solos
@@squiddyjamzzz That's an interesting point of view...
👍
What a foolish thing to say. And the arrogance to be rude about it. People compare things constantly. Certainly within jazz and certainly when they are standing right next to one another, taking turns trading fours. Humans crave hierarchy. And on top of that, Horn players certainly do compete and jazz players will play to one up one another or push things further. Not to say that's happening here (John said something like it they could, every player would play like Stan). But to dismiss someone and arrogantly say they don't know 'NOTHING ABOUT JAZZ'. I'm afraid it's you who knows little about jazz and even less about human nature.
Getz-Indica
Coltrane-sativa
Hahaha. It would appear to be like that isn't ? Hahha
@@usmc1875
Agree 😆😆
I feel their lifestyle suggest otherwise! But their tone connected with your comment
@@arkyandy9612 in case you didn't know they were both into drugs and booze, but they both quit! Fortunately
@@arkyandy9612 I assume that's what you were referencing
oscar peterson & john coltrane, the great sound of two eras, so diverse and so joint at the same time; just feel lucky to be able see these two masters play together and feel the amazing magic of jazz
That sweet shy smile Getz and Trane share before they play the head says it all: they had nothing but respect for each other, and they were enjoying the moment!
The more I learn about jazz the more I find this video surreal.
I apologize to anyone who thinks otherwise, but Gets is a sacred monster. Polishing and beauty of your phrasing, fluidity, pause, breathing... in short, everything in its place. Hugs from Brazil
Finally someone speaking my language. His sound is so dark and classy
Getz vs Coltrane ... and the winner is ... Oscar
its so awesome that this exists, and that we live in the era of CZcams where its accessible. I know some of y'all remember how hard it used to be to find a record let alone footage.
No is oscar you are stupid the whinner is coltrane
Oscar and Coltrane on the same tune is like an earthquake meeting a hurricane.
??? The best sound is from Stan Getz by far... may be in this video is not the best sound to hear.
CZcams is nothing short of miraculous.
Oscar : the greatest ever Legend !!
Stan Getz : Tenor Saxophone
John Coltrane : Tenor Saxophone
Oscar Peterson : Piano
Paul Chambers : Bass
Jimmy Cobb : Drums
Lendary video this is priceless
It don't get no heavier.
Imagine Cannonball showed up 🤯🤯
@@brianmessemer2973 shiiii
Awesome group of amazing ARTISTS!! ❤❤
This is special. Jimmy Cobb makes everything feel so good. Always on point.
Wow sort of surreal to hear OP comping behind Coltrane's wailing solo. I never knew they ever played together, let alone with Chambers and Cobb as well - Amazing!
wow 2 of the best sax players ever
The contrast of styles from these two great players is fascinating. It's a great reminder that there are many ways to express one's self on a saxophone (or any instrument.) Thanks for posting this!
each was among the other's favorites.
East coast Bop and West Coast Cool. Not to common to see these two together. (Coltrane and Stan Getz)
that';s the synchrony of jazz, call and response with others if that's how the players feel at the time, and what they decide to play if they feel like it. You never know!
Love it! Coltrane looking to push limits and Getz happy in his own skin and playing those killer Swing/Bop lines... A fantastic contrasting track
A true battle of saxs where the piano is the referee. A delight to watch and listen to.
In Trane's first chorus he ends almost every phrase on the tonic.
Stan and Trane cutting it wow, with OP, PC, JC I'm loving it. What a kick ass session!
Wow this is how cats should play! The thing about trane and Stan is that they are always so clear and intentional about the melody they play
Love this video. O.P., Coltrane and Getz with Jimmy and daddy on bass. They were as always swinging and having fun.
Pierre Chambers ok I was wondering daddy ?
your dad is pretty cool
Love it.
You were related to Paul chambers
I looked up Paul Chambers after this comment - he didn’t have any children so Pierre is almost certainly not a relation
how did i not know these guys played together. thanks to whoever preserved
I swear, Time Machine anyone? This is great, but can you imagine sitting watching and listening to these guys in person? The video alone gave me goosebumps... Three immortals of their instruments and craft!
I think I would then sit there until I die.
If there's one concert that one would travel back in time to see...
The videography is stunning - high contrast, glaring blacks yet so detailed. This informs me that this was recorded in one go, end to end. Switching pianists at the opening… there must be more tracks with the two sax giants. I never knew Stan Getz as a bebop musician; knowing that he could also shine on the Bossa nova masterpieces.
I never knew that Coltrane and Getz ever met never mind played together. And with Oscar, Paul and Jimmy. I'm overwhelmed.
That 2-phrase lick at 4:23 from Stan is absolutelly amazing and in its place
Could you be more specific(lol)
@@rovingeye6 just listen with your ears
I'm. From Hackensack NJ
WoW!!!!!!!!
If you're a Trane fan you can nail the year of this recording by the lines he plays. Always a sacred experience to hear Saint John
I consider Coltrane to be my favored jazz musicians but calling him a "saint" is a bit of a stretch.
@@sophiaperennis2360 100% a Saint.
Along with Pharoah, Albert, Rahsaan and a few more.
Always were tryin to spread love and peace, and to elevate and depressure (the daily) life as much or as little as possible.
This video alone makes CZcams an absolutely essential tool to enjoying music and videos to their fullest. How else would you see this video? Stunning.
Jazz has this wonderful sound that never out dates, such fantastic musicians who really knew how to play up a brilliant storm..... Just love this music, I think if a person doesn't appreciate jazz then you can't appreciate any kind of music at all.
Isn't that what bird said? : i could hear it sometimes , but i couldn't play it. Guess that exists. I hear it too. But i cant play it hahaha
Watching and listening to the masters on CZcams is a true blessing. Back in the 60’s qnd 70’s, we had the neverending “who’s the best” debates; a total waste of time and and energy. No one ever wins, it’s pure opinion, and it subtracts from the beauty and joy. Just love it.
Just a great contrast in sounds - Coltrane with that sharp hard driving rhythm and Getz with that melodic tenor sound. . .
I love this kind of record with different styles saxofonist masters. Like on Tenor conclave, by coltrane, mobley, zoot and al cohn. Each style of tone and phare are unique, specialy when unity east hard bop with cool west coast
the Sound and the Trane making music together with my favorite pianist and that great rhythm section Jimmy Cobb and Paul Chambers
Young Jon cool Stan two of the Goats wow RIP guys thank you for the music glad I have ears to hear.
What a duo with their different styles! I, too, am grateful. This stuff is awesome!
Great combination of players. So much talent on one stage.
Jimmy Cobb! He sure had a long life.
Getz and Coltrane must have loved playing alongside one another. Their styles were very different but they were both brilliant.
March 28th 1960 (Monday) Probably around mid day. Apollo Theatre (WDR Studio, Dusseldorf, West Germany) This tune is actually called 'Rifftide'. Info from 'The John Coltrane Reference'.
This was recorded during the Miles Spring Tour of Europe. For some reason Miles took a few days break so Trane filled in on a couple of shows (there was a later set played the same day in this venue with just Trane & Miles' rhythm section)
Everyone keeps commenting on the brilliant Getz, Trane, and Peterson, but please don't forget about the Rhythm Section, In My opinion, Paul Chambers is the most important jazz bassist of all time. Jimmy Cobb is in my top 10 for all time best jazz drummers... (btw, thats the rhythm section for the album "Kind of Blue.")
Yep. Mr PC and Mr JC were laying it down.
Amen- on Paul Chambers. What he could have done if he had longer time here on earth.
Eddie Harris Chicago sernaid
@phayne28 No one is better thanoscar
After all he is Mr. P C...
So great: They all have their own way to express their feelings but it's all about love ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely unbelievable! Thanks for posting this gem. 5 players on stage who are complete legends just giving us the gift that God gave them.
.semplicemente meraviglioso.
No idea this existed. Amazing. Great example of how everyone can be great and different in their own way. Everybody's got something. Stick to your vision!
Fantastic listening! The 60 people who gave this the thumbs down must be tone deaf
Maybe they were mad because it wasn't long enough, LOL!
It does make me happy, never expected to see them together. So many years have passed, and once you get acknowledge -they played together , somewhere somehow, for me it is more than a miracle. A miracle to see, in addition to hear.
Two of my all time favorite saxophonists and one of my all time favorite pianists. Phenomenal performance by all!
When differences work together, they can make great music. These guys sure did. Glad it got recorded. Thanks for posting!
Lol the whole competition conversation is so primal. Just dig!
That's the CZcams comment section.... :/
Truth! Happy 2020!
They never were in a competition. They just loved to listen to themselves. Only materialistic people would put the word competition in music
These Cats Sound as Great as they did in the 50,s. So younger jazz musicans in 2015, this is Your Roots!!! From and "old" man (72yrs) starting digging jazz in 1953 13.yrs of age
Stan Getz had an absolutely unique sound. his sound is heard immediately
Because Stan does not play notes; he sings with the saxophone.
not just his sound but his phrasing and articulation, the clarity and simplicity of his lines.
@@zvonimirtosic6171 Well stated.
John Coltrane es el mejor. Pero queremos y admiramos también a Stan Getz.
english?
There are no words. Brings joyous tears to my eyes!
Wow. Do we ever need music like this again!
Wow! Is this classic or what? A meeting of the giants! Getz and Trane had such different styles and sounds yet here you can tell the awesome respect that each had for the other.Coltrane said all sax players would love to sound like Getz, but I'm sure Stan really dug Trane as well. Great lineup!!
What a fine performance by such gifted musicians all around. Classic song so well played.
This is truly one of my favorite videos on youtube at this point.
You have to give Stan Getz credit for having the guts to follow Coltranes solo! They are both great in their respective styles, but Coltrane really soars on this!
+John LaRouche We are all free to choose our favorites but It looks like perhaps you seriously underestimate the great Stan Getz, which Coltrane himself never did. He said "We all would like to sound like Getz, if only we could!".....
The above two comments sum it up beautifully for me!
John LaRouche - Stan came up sharing the bandstand with the likes of Charlie Parker, Fats Navarro, Bud Powell, Lennie Tristano, Warne Marsh among others. Why in the world would you intimate that he would need guts to follow Coltrane's solo?
Gad!
It's mainly a matter of personal preference. I love Getz' tone, but as far as inventive and interesting ideas Coltrane is one of my favorites!
Getz was like a horse and buggy following a Ferrari !
"We'd all like to sound like [Stan Getz] if we could."
- John Coltrane
I never get tired of watching this. Two geniuses with their own personal unique sounds and concepts!
Every note is a lesson.
The Bass, is wow! The piano is pure poetry!! Coltrane can pack more notes than there are in alphabet , Stan is so dreamy & melodic. The drummer is great. I wish I had the opportunity to see these guys live. Thanks to CZcams I can. Thanks a million for posting.
It's such a big fun to hear Oscar Peterson jammin' with Miles Davis' rhythm section at the time. Wow!
Love it. A world where everyone gets to be themselves- and everyone is better for it! What music should be about! Thanks!
Omg the sheer amount of time Trane keep his first motif of landing on the tonic in relatively the same motion moving throughout his solo is so killin
Ok
@@Bl4zinn HAHAHA
bruhhhh ya so killing
@@JoshClarin hi josh
-John is superb
-Stan is amazing
-John is strong
-Stan is sweet
- John investigates harmony
-Stan invents perfect melodic lines
-John tows the rhythmic section
- Stan swings on it
OK. How do you want to play?
Both.
No, you can't, you must choose.
The daily inner life of a common tenor player.
How you wanna play?
- like both
And then God created Hank Mobley.
@@Apollo360XD eheh.
@@caiovaz3812 No estic gaire segur que Deu prengués part d'aquest negoci. Estic d'acord que Mobley es la sintesi perfecte entre els dos estils. Hank Mobley un dels mes grans i malgrat tot ha faltat el reconeixement que es mereix. Salutacions Caio Vaz.
Uh and Oscar Peterson on piano 🎹 is no slouch either!
Getz was great but nobody could equal the stratospheric mastery that was John Coltrane.
What's even more amazing is they're all playing in the dark :)
Lol
ça n'a rien d'étonnant...on se concentre plus facilement dans le noir et de toute façon , aucun de ces musiciens n'a besoin de regarder.....D'AILLEURS , ILS JOUENT TOUS BIEN SOUVENT LES YEUX FERMES
Simply great!
Man, I just love the transition from Coltrane's solo to Getz's. Not only because both solos are total opposites from each other (both in style, sound and tone), but also because Coltrane's last notes perfectly lead into Getz's first notes. It almost seems like the two of them had a telepathic connection, and it is just one big solo which was created out of their collective consciousness. They should have performed together more often *sigh*.
Whoever thought Coltrane and Gets were in competition does not understand the definition of love that was nothing but love in harmony nothing but a masterpiece
I am in heaven ❤thanks
Great video. What a contrast in styles! Trane is a monster. Getz is Getz. Oscar sounds like Oscar.
Three Giants of Jazz??!!!!!.....I suppose Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb are couple of amateurs who happened to wonder into the studio?!!....
Really, it's time for many jazz lovers who make such ignorant comments to realize that rhythm section is the most important part of any jazz band and without great rhythm section such as this one the soloists would not be able to shine as they do.
Besides, Paul Chambers was a great soloist in his own right and so is Jimmy Cobb who is still with us sounding great.
Rhythm section isn't MOST important... it's important, but one can individually solo without any accompaniment whatsoever. (a la Sonny Rollins - It Could Happen to You)
Larry Lenau One should read a comment carefully and not haste to reply.
I said "a rhythm section is the most important part of jazz BAND " not a solo performer. However, a soloist like Sonny Rollins has an inbuilt rhythm section so he can swing without one. However, even he carries a great rhythm men such as Bob Cranshaw and Al Foster around the world and pays their transportation, expenses and salary, so he, too, must consider it important. Of all the recordings Sonny has done, his solo input is very small and he employed excellent rhythm sections throughout his career. In fact, the better rhythmically equipped the soloist, the more important to him will be his accompanists.
vova47 You are right, my apologies. Cheers though, to some wonderful jazz music, played by woodwind AND rhythm legends...
vova47 what a great comment! I totally agree!!! thanks for that my friend
You're welcome, Gabriela!
Two unique sounding players ln a stage together. What could be better than that.
I've never seen or remember this song,but what a performance and collaboration of talent. They were seriously Jamin.
Thank you so much for this. Jimmy Cobb at 90,is the only survivor of this band, also the Miles -Kind of Blue.this is such a rare gathering of these masters. Thank. you again. ps Paul C was the reason I started playing bass in '59, after 8 yrs on trpt in the school bands.
The rhythmic section is cooking. That guy Peterson...
Getz holds his own calmly, and admiringly of 'Trane - compliments to 'Trane's sense of and devotion to team effort.
Sound is very important in the business of especially saxophone playing; that tonal spirituality and haunting together with clarity and manual agility...
Baby now, these dudes are playing like never before! Blending styles.
i love this song....thanks for sharing
after 50 years of playing guitar I decided to switch to sax. I've been listening to all the great sax players like Coltrane and almost forgot about Stan Getz. He's no lightweight and it's great so see these two playing together.
kind of a same train here, giving up the accordion for trumpet or sax. thank you jazz, no sarcasm :)
lol, me too, 15 years of playing guitar, then wanted to try saxophone thinking that it would help for my guitar playing...after 3 years playing sax, i almost never touch my guitar now!! fell in love so much with Wind instruments
"He's no lightweight", lol, that might be one of the biggest understatements ever! :-) Stan Getz was AMAZING! I hope your switch to sax has been immensely fulfilling for you!
Paul Chambers on bass. The heaviest.
Listening to this is heavenly.
Great wine,Great champagne and if one goes back in time and consider it both of them playing in the same room ! i love them both
Pure gold from a golden period!
Fantastic to hear these three brilliant talents come together and make such music, WOW! Outrageous it makes one smile, laugh, and yeah your feet become so happy you just have to dance. Love it!
A class of music in itself. I cherish this piece, takes me back.
Man, that was amazing. Thanks.
My favorite part of the video is them playing together in the head and the tenor solos. When they play together, you get Stan Getz melodic softness in his playing and tone under Coltranes bold hard playing to create a weird mixture that is so enjoyable. When they solo, you get a great contrast. Coltrane starts off with his signature stuff, the tone in his improv, fast playing, extension of range, and might I add his squeaks haha. Then you get Getz, who comes in much quieter with his soft tone, whose more rhythm centric with a lot of licks that repeat to grab the listeners attention. It’s like this recording came out of a genies wish, furthermore it’s a video recording! The wonders of jazz
"Let's face it--we'd all sound like that if we could." - Coltrane on Stan Getz
Yet, there are no sources.
www.theatlantic.com/past/docs/unbound/jazz/strickla.htm
This article has the quote and is quite interesting overall.
Love Coltrane's comment on Stan Getz -- "Let's face it, we'd all sound like that ... if we could."
Five genius playing together... What could go wrong...?
OMG - how is playing music like this possible!??!
Start when you're very young, preferably around 5 years old, practice at least an hour every day, increasing to 2-3 hours or more as you reach your teens. Transcribe the masters and mimic them as best as you can in order to learn the vocabulary of jazz improvisation. One must have the ability to employ a deep concentration when playing - it's necessary to be able to recognize when you are playing ever so slightly out of time, and know how to correct this.
Listen to jazz music in your spare time. A lot. And really *listen* to it. Focus your attention with all your might.
Spend about 30,000 hours utilizing the information presented above and with a bit of luck you might be in the ballpark of the world class jazz musicians.
Wow. I must've died and gone to heaven. Trane and Getz and OP? Thnaks so much!
This video is peak... The way trane starts is so iconic, you hear the joy and you know it's trane. Stan got that bounce, so swinging
"We would all sound like Stan if we could"... John Coltrane quote.
i've never thought of it before, but this clip has a lot Chasin' The Trane ingredients in place.. COLTRANE LOVED GETZ AND GETZ SURE HAD THE FLOW. I love all the periods but it's cool to here the concept at the tail end of the Atlantic years.
Other times, other's music. Our, the few, music... Great!!!
