The Jimmy Giuffre 3, 1961 is incredible indeed. I discovered it some years ago, and it led me into a deep dive into Giuffre’s music, earlier and later.
Thank you Joe Harley. I can tell you that the creation of the tone poet series corresponds to my with me beginning again to collect vinyl. Incidentally, it also corresponds with me building my audiophile quality stereo system. I’m now a huge fan of jazz as a result. So again, thank you.
Great interview Mazzy! What a superb conversation! Thank you both for opening a doorway to a better life...simple as that! Over the past 2 years the discovery of new (old) music with the TP series has had a profound impact on my wellbeing. Beautiful music!! Many thanks 😊
What an excellent dialog and sharing of Joe Harley's favorite albums. Thanks for making this happen Mazzy. It's so nice to hear people talking the music they love. I could see this being an ongoing series featuring other movers and shakers in the music industry! Bravo.
Schizophrenia by Shorter!! Nice! It's an honest pleasure to listen to Mr. Harley discuss music. Admittedly this series has helped me tremendously in diving deeper into Jazz so a huge thank you is in order. The hard work is paying off!
I love these two albums with Jimmy Giuffre 3 that ECM reissued! I have the Verve originals and the 2-cd that ECM issued in the early 90's!! Beautiful music!!! ..... I saw a concert with Bob Dylan in Stockholm a couple of weeks ago. I was almost shocked have good he was. He sang beautiful! A great performance!!
Mazzy, well done! I always cringe when Jazz/Vinyl titans get invited to do interviews in the VC and it falls short after a “big announcement”. This was informative, entertaining and had a welcome business/casual flow that made it interesting throughout. I hope you plan a follow up visit with Joe in 2023!
I was born in 1979, in a little village in the south of Italy, and I have the deepest respect and enthusiasm for the music of Geri Allen and goin’ back Jimi Giuffre. I still remember my first impressions as a young jazz listener with The train and the river and Geri Allen with Ornette. Every recordings with Giuffre and Konitz together are incredible: the Verve ones wow! Thanks for this conversation!
Mazzy thanks for this interview Joe Harley picks are awesome I knew he was going to to show not the regular albums that Charlie Haden, Paul Motian and Geri Allen looks so interesting I listen to some of the tracks I have to seek this out . Mike Davis Miles in the Sky is a classic I wish I would of grabbed the Mofi I missed out on that one it a underrated Miles record. You an Joe Harley had a blast talking about great music and stories of seeing the artist live very cool . Lovellandrew
Great choices from Joe. All favourites of mine. Particularly pleased to see the Allen/Haden/Motian records. Wonderful trio! Saw Bob Dylan in London the other week. Beautiful concert.
Such a great chat, Mazzy and I could see how thrilled you were to talk music with Joe. You both have an incredible passion for music which is really engaging. I’m sure you must be working to get other guests to do the same? Thanks a lot Graham
Okay, I’m 69 and have been listening to jazz since the early ‘70s, but I flipped when you mentioned Janos Starker’s Bach solo cello recordings. I grew up hearing my dad enjoy that, and now own his copy. Great record!
Great visit with Joe Harley, Wish I could share a bottle of Paso Robles Zin and spin some great vinyl with you both. Maz, you’ve got to hear Jimmy Giuffre. The Western Suite is such beautiful chamber music.
Thanks for letting us all get the best from Blue Note 60 years after it was recorded. I love the Classic- and the Tone poet series. It opened my eys (and ears) to new artists. Joe Harley seems the nicest guy in record buissines.
Joe Harley was always an audiophile and a superb music historian - remember his prestine productions at Ocean Way. Hi Joe and congrats on all the work that has followed!
For folks interested in Jimmy Giuffre, the documentary film of the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival 'Jazz on a Summer's Day' is an absolute must. The Giuffre Trio (with Jim Hall and Bob Brookmeyer) opens the proceedings, in stunning fashion. (I thought I'd heard you mention having seeing this film in one of your earlier videos, Mazzy). There is also an album entitled 'The Sound of Jazz', a vinyl transcription of a 1957 television program that contains numerous performances from various combinations of jazz giants, all in the studio at one time: Count Basie, Billie Holiday, Lester Young, Thelonious Monk, Coleman Hawkins, Gerry Mulligan, Vic Dickenson, Jo Jones, Freddie Green, Doc Cheatham, Red Allen, Jimmy Rushing, Mal Waldron, Danny Barker, others I'm leaving out. An amazing record with the Giuffre Trio performance of 'The Train and the River' (unless I am mistaken, the same tune they perform in 'Jazz on a Summer's Day'), as well as a wonderful impromptu jam between Giuffre, Pee Wee Russell, Danny Barker, and Jo Jones. Much great music contained therein! NOT to be missed.
Since As The Table Turns picked up the last copy of Jimmy Giuffre 3, 1961, in the US, I grabbed the last copy in Canada - North America is cleaned out lol. Also grabbed Jimmy Giuffre Trav’lin Light. Great one Mazzy - really loved it. - Mike
Thank you Mazzy for this one.The video kept getting better and better with each selected record by Mr Harley.Any yes we will will attempt to find the Charlie Haden, Paul Motion, and Geri Allen”Etudes” album. I watched this one twice, which sounds corny but the video served many masters. Deeply informative and entertaining. Mr Harley was a natural and your interview really supported his deep knowledge Hey this was just plainly FAB🇺🇦
Great interview. Appreciated the question about Miles Davis and MOFI. On the MOFI front, it would have been fun to hear Joe's take/opinion on the MOFI One step of Cannonball Adderley - Somethin' Else, sonic wise and the reasoning behind Blue Note licensing this title.
Regarding Paul Motian’s name, the correct Armenian pronunciation is Moh-tee-un. You hear it announced that way on the Bill Evans Vanguard recordings. He later went along with the ‘Motion’ mispronunciation. His niece inherited his live recordings, demos, diaries and charts and shares them in the podcast series ‘Uncle Paul’s Jazz Closet’.
Loved this Mazzy. Started watching it when it dropped but couldn't finish it until now. So glad you made the hook up with Joe and hearing him talk about other records he was passionate about. So cool to see his love for Starker. The Speakers Corner set is really worthwhile.
Great conversation, enjoyed listening in, I have all the Jimmy Guiffre that were shown, all of them are great experiments in structure, rhythm and improv, no drummer, Jim Hall is so great, and Bob Brookmeyer has become a favorite, saw them first ,Mazzy, in the Film of the Newport Jazz Festival from '58, Jazz On A Sunny Day with Chico Hamilton too, and a terrible Chuck Berry appearance with Jack Teagarden!!! So wrong. Would love them to reissue Tony Williams Lifetime LP Emergency! I love in a Silent Way but Sorcerer and Filles of Kilimanjaro are as enjoyable too, thanks Mazzy, feel vindicated in a way, because many Jazzers I know seem ignorant of Guiffre or think he is MOR jazz and I don't hear that, same with Chico or MJQ. Once again, thanks to you, I am off to the record store to find that Kenny Burrell, already have the Grant Green. Cheers....
Great 1 on 1 Mazzy! Always good to hear Joe talk about what he likes and his spin on things. Etudes is a wonderful recording. Someone needs to repress the Soul Note catalogue.
That dylan album is one of my favorite dylan albums period! I don't buy many new music on vinyl, however when i heard the first single about Kennedy I flipped a shit. It reminded me of old Dylan storytelling (Hurricane, tangled up in blue, masters of war). Absolutely stunning LP.
I was praying you'd eventually get to Shorter's 'Schizophrenia'!!!!! Right On Joe. Much Love. Appreciate how many modal recordings you've blessed us with. I wonder if Yusef's Savoy material is on anyone's radar? There's a Pat Britt record called 'Jazz From San Francisco' that is phenomenal, but likely not well known enough to do. Peace.....
Cheers Mazzy and Joe very insightful for a 67 yr old getting more into jazz these days. Coming from a rock percpective and the era of "supergroups". Seems to me that almost every jazz/blues record is recorded by a "supergroup"!
Mazzy this was a Wonderful video, I love Joe , what an inspiring personality and humility . I set down like a kid (I’m not ) and captured all his recommendations and learned a lot . I think we share some taste in jazz .. please in return recommend Jazz Sabbath to him 😊 anyway thanks a lot and have a great weekend. BTW the single screen video chat went very well.
hey my friend...what a great conversation...joe is such a nice guy and such brilliant taste in music...between miles and monk and the cello concertos and then end with dylan....couldn't have been better...and i agree with you about rough and rowdy ways...i think it's a masterpiece and his best album period...i contain multitudes alone is worth the price of admission....once again, great great great conversation...hope you are both doing well...stay strong...peace always...rocky
Loved this video! I'm so on the search for "The Jimmy Giuffre Trio - Trav'lin' Light". Joe had the Stereo version, wonder if the stereo or the mono is the one to get?
Schizophrenia was the first Blue Note album I bought years ago and it remains one of my favourites still. My copy is a UK pressing that sounds ok but great to hear that it's gong to be part of the TP series!
Před rokem
Well, Mazzy now just needs to compare with the digital format and see, hear, feel which is the best. I know what it is. Don't worry about the TV, it's not that fabric that will make a difference, because there are much more serious things in the living room to get good sound, the bench behind your guests, the fridge and even the Beatles paintings...
2006 WAS a bad tour for Dylan. Merle Haggard was amazing though. But I thoroughly enjoyed last year on the Rough and Rowdy Ways and I like most of that album
I have the Jimmy Giuffre record, great stuff, I would also recommend "the Jimmy Giuffre three", specially with Jim Hall on guitar. I only make this recommendations because I have all these records already, so when they go up....I don't care anymore 🙂
Great discussion and recommendations unfortunately mostly unavailable at present to us cd music collectors. Timely as I am off to Oxford to see Bob Dylan tonight at possible the smallest theatre venue of the european tour so should be good
In the first six minutes Joe Harley confirmed the new series are more accurate to the master tapes than the original then Mazzy tried to recover for collectors of originals by saying "it's not about one being better than the other". That fact they could improve the sound is the main point of the reissues.
Not recovering for OG collectors at all. It’s really just a preference. I prefer the sound of the newer versions. Obviously I haven’t heard any of the tapes but I enjoy the fuller midrange and bass from the Classics and Tone Poets.
for the love of all things holy, why no focus on the three sounds??? such an 'in the pocket' trio, beautiful range. The later 60's cuts like Black Orchid and Soul Symphony, criminally underrated but really expensive on discogs, they are amazing! for later cuts, I would love to see releases like Terence Blanchard's 'A Tale of God's Will' and 'Invisible Cinema'
Hey Norman; Tone Poet: my guess is you skipped at least some of the Turrentine albums. As far as the CLASSIC SERIES: it is a shame to release these Blue Note albums in such sub-par jackets. Blue Note artwork is a fundamental part of the equation and label heritage, and these covers just don't match the brand's equity, nor the quality of the pressed plastic. They don't need to reproduce these in the high gloss gatefold covers used on MM/TP, but could step up the quality a couple notch. Just don't do gatefold, but do it well. CRAFTSMANSHIP.
The Jimmy Giuffre 3, 1961 is incredible indeed. I discovered it some years ago, and it led me into a deep dive into Giuffre’s music, earlier and later.
Thank you Joe Harley. I can tell you that the creation of the tone poet series corresponds to my with me beginning again to collect vinyl. Incidentally, it also corresponds with me building my audiophile quality stereo system. I’m now a huge fan of jazz as a result. So again, thank you.
Very cool. He has brought us some wonderful music ✌🏼

What a pleasure to listen to two knowledgeable people speak so passionately about music. I learned so much. Thank you.
Thank you. We love the music ✌🏼
Great video, Mazzie. I’m just now getting into jazz and am fascinated by the Blue Note Tone Poet catalog. This video was a real education. 👍👏
I love these two albums with Jimmy Giuffre 3 that ECM reissued! I have the Verve originals and the 2-cd that ECM issued in the early 90's!! Beautiful music!!! ..... I saw a concert with Bob Dylan in Stockholm a couple of weeks ago. I was almost shocked have good he was. He sang beautiful! A great performance!!
Very very good show, just music talk. I actually like how the video goes back and forth between you two guys, nice change. 😎
YeH the video change wasn’t intentional I was showcasing sone of the records from MMJ when he spoke of the label and were missed. Oh well ✌🏼
Mazzy, well done! I always cringe when Jazz/Vinyl titans get invited to do interviews in the VC and it falls short after a “big announcement”. This was informative, entertaining and had a welcome business/casual flow that made it interesting throughout. I hope you plan a follow up visit with Joe in 2023!
Thank you Vincent. It was such a pleasure to simply talk music. Hope to do it again next year 😎✌🏼
I was born in 1979, in a little village in the south of Italy, and I have the deepest respect and enthusiasm for the music of Geri Allen and goin’ back Jimi Giuffre. I still remember my first impressions as a young jazz listener with The train and the river and Geri Allen with Ornette. Every recordings with Giuffre and Konitz together are incredible: the Verve ones wow! Thanks for this conversation!
Mazzy thanks for this interview Joe Harley picks are awesome I knew he was going to to show not the regular albums that Charlie Haden, Paul Motian and Geri Allen looks so interesting I listen to some of the tracks I have to seek this out . Mike Davis Miles in the Sky is a classic I wish I would of grabbed the Mofi I missed out on that one it a underrated Miles record. You an Joe Harley had a blast talking about great music and stories of seeing the artist live very cool . Lovellandrew
Since sone people are getting rid of their MoFis it may be a good time to seek them out.
@@mazzysmusic yes definitely I noticed. I’m keeping my Bob Dylan and Miles Davis Mofi’s I have love the sound of them .
Thanks for providing this great forum to discus music. Much appreciated. Never imagined I had so much in common with Joe Harley, and Mazzy of course!
He was ver generous with his time here. Greatly appreciated 🌸
AWESOME! AWESOME SHOW MAZZ!!! JOE IS CERTAINLY A CLASS ACT AND A TRUE CHAMPION OF OUR HOBBY AND PASSION
Agree !!!
Thanks Mazzy, and Joe. That's it, I'm off down the Jimmy Giuffre rabbit hole, see yer!
Cool. I’m going down it too. ✌🏼
Great choices from Joe. All favourites of mine. Particularly pleased to see the Allen/Haden/Motian records. Wonderful trio! Saw Bob Dylan in London the other week. Beautiful concert.

Yeah than Starker is a beauty. I have the 45 rpm Acoustic Sounds set. Gorgeous ✌🏼
great interview!
Great conversation guys and love the recommendations…many added to the wishlist!
That's funny! A few months ago, I picked up a MJQ feat. Jimmy Giuffre live record and fell in love. Here you guys talking about him!!! Wow!!
Great visit with Joe Harley, Wish I could share a bottle of Paso Robles Zin and spin some great vinyl with you both. Maz, you’ve got to hear Jimmy Giuffre. The Western Suite is such beautiful chamber music.
The record is on the way so yes I’ll hear it soon. Thank you ✌🏼
Thanks for letting us all get the best from Blue Note 60 years after it was recorded. I love the Classic- and the Tone poet series. It opened my eys (and ears) to new artists. Joe Harley seems the nicest guy in record buissines.
I miss shows like this, The V.C. is not what it used to be. Awesome Video.
Mas... I found the 'Etudes' album with Geri Allen on Amazon... $81.00...
😵💫😎🤷🏻♂️
What a lovely chap
The Geri Allen "Etudes" is my desert island album. I love it.
I love that Joe has an ear for great Classical Music as well! Bach, János Starker, a masterpiece!!!
Absolutely ✌🏼
Terrific conversation - thanks Mazzy! I streamed Etude right away this Sunday AM and, as Joe suggested, holy sh%t!, Wow.
Gracias 🙏 Bravo
Thanks to Joe and the folks at Blue Note for these amazing releases.
Joe Harley was always an audiophile and a superb music historian - remember his prestine productions at Ocean Way. Hi Joe and congrats on all the work that has followed!
rest in peace Geri Allen🙏🎹
Your best yet. Great interview.
Thank you Joe is such a wonderful fellow ✌🏼

Ha yeah I ordered three of Joes picks while I was uploading 🤷🏻♂️🕺🐿️
Thank you Mazzy for this one.The video kept getting better and better with each selected record by Mr Harley.Any yes we will will attempt to find the Charlie Haden, Paul Motion, and Geri Allen”Etudes” album. I watched this one twice, which sounds corny but the video served many masters. Deeply informative and entertaining. Mr Harley was a natural and your interview really supported his deep knowledge Hey this was just plainly FAB🇺🇦
Kudos Mazzy...this is probably the best video I've seen on CZcams since I started watching 2 years ago...well done
Not sure about that but I certainly enjoyed it. But I thank you ✌🏼
Great interview. Appreciated the question about Miles Davis and MOFI. On the MOFI front, it would have been fun to hear Joe's take/opinion on the MOFI One step of Cannonball Adderley - Somethin' Else, sonic wise and the reasoning behind Blue Note licensing this title.
Love almost everything with Charlie Haden! Nice choice there. Good interview.
Picked up the last copy of Jimmy Giuffre 3 1961 in the US on Discogs!
There ya go ✌🏼
Thanks Mazzy for bringing us this great chat with Joe. He’s such a knowledgeable & open interviewee.
It was fun. Thank you 🌸
Really enjoyed this Mazzy!
Thank you Rev. Something to carry us over until your part 2 🤓💫

This was a highlight for me. What a generous lover of music. 💫
Not only he does such great and important work. He is such a kind and nice man. A gentleman.
Joe Harley 🙏🏼Tip of the hat Mazzy, good interview that. Really happy you asked about those T Williams albums, love them both.
Yeah I want those TW LPs
Black Saint & Soul Note seriously needs to be reissued. It was the Blue Note of the late 70’s into the 90’s.
I think between The Tone Poets and classics they eventually get to them. Hope Joe will read these comments Nicole 🌸
That piano version of Neon Lights was absolutely amazing! Just wow!!!
So refreshing to hear Joe being interviewed about music and not just mastering. Great job!
Right??!!!?!
Great interview...thanks...
Thank for watching ✌🏼
Great video. You should do more of these kind.
I love Joe and everything he does.
Great conversation, enjoyed listening in, I have all the Jimmy Guiffre that were shown, all of them are great experiments in structure, rhythm and improv, no drummer, Jim Hall is so great, and Bob Brookmeyer has become a favorite, saw them first ,Mazzy, in the Film of the Newport Jazz Festival from '58, Jazz On A Sunny Day with Chico Hamilton too, and a terrible Chuck Berry appearance with Jack Teagarden!!!

This was such a fun video, Mazzy! Great job guiding the conversation, and thanks for sharing :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great 1 on 1 Mazzy! Always good to hear Joe talk about what he likes and his spin on things. Etudes is a wonderful recording. Someone needs to repress the Soul Note catalogue.
Yeah. I will check those out. ✌🏼
Really liked this one, Mazzy. Hope you will do more of these types of conversations.
I’d love to 🕺✌🏼
One of my favorite interviews/discussion of the year, cheers to you both.
Would love to see Cantaloupe Island as a TP/Classic.
Thank you. I really wanted it to be about the music. So many are always about almost everything but …
This was a joy to watch. It is about music indeed.
Thank you ✌🏼
Paul Motian was Armenian, and his name originally had a hard “t” but he adopted the “motion” pronunciation for reasons one might guess.
Thanks for the detail. I always wondered ✌🏼
That dylan album is one of my favorite dylan albums period! I don't buy many new music on vinyl, however when i heard the first single about Kennedy I flipped a shit. It reminded me of old Dylan storytelling (Hurricane, tangled up in blue, masters of war). Absolutely stunning LP.
Right. It’s so good !!!!

Cheers Mazzy and Joe very insightful for a 67 yr old getting more into jazz these days. Coming from a rock percpective and the era of "supergroups". Seems to me that almost every jazz/blues record is recorded by a "supergroup"!
Excellent.
Brilliant show Mazzy with a perfect guest. Very refreshing to hear the all analogue TonePoet guru speak so well of MOFI Miles. Puts some to shame ……
Yeah the best music when it sounds good, it sounds good. ✌🏼
Enjoying this interview. Love Horace Parlan as well!
Parlan has become a very favorite of mine too ✌🏼
Mazzy this was a Wonderful video, I love Joe , what an inspiring personality and humility . I set down like a kid (I’m not ) and captured all his recommendations and learned a lot . I think we share some taste in jazz .. please in return recommend Jazz Sabbath to him 😊 anyway thanks a lot and have a great weekend. BTW the single screen video chat went very well.
Thank you. Yeah it worked. Just different presentation
Very nice, salute gentlemen!
Thank Bob. I could chat with this guy all day. ✌🏼
hey my friend...what a great conversation...joe is such a nice guy and such brilliant taste in music...between miles and monk and the cello concertos and then end with dylan....couldn't have been better...and i agree with you about rough and rowdy ways...i think it's a masterpiece and his best album period...i contain multitudes alone is worth the price of admission....once again, great great great conversation...hope you are both doing well...stay strong...peace always...rocky
Great video Mazzy - thank you! 😊
Thank you David. I certainly enjoyed it ✌🏼
In The Year of the Dragon (Haden, Motian and Allen) is a similar masterpiece IMHO.
Cool. ✌🏼
Loved this video! I'm so on the search for "The Jimmy Giuffre Trio - Trav'lin' Light". Joe had the Stereo version, wonder if the stereo or the mono is the one to get?
The "hit" rate of these re-pressings is very high. I'm thrilled by the sound of most of them and the surface noise is minimal.
Can't wait to get Dylan's book. Audio cd too. Hear what he has to say about songs that were apart of my life too.
Yeah I need to get the audio book now ✌🏼
Awesome as always!!!
Thank you. It was a fun chat ✌🏼
Schizophrenia was the first Blue Note album I bought years ago and it remains one of my favourites still. My copy is a UK pressing that sounds ok but great to hear that it's gong to be part of the TP series!
Well, Mazzy now just needs to compare with the digital format and see, hear, feel which is the best. I know what it is.
Don't worry about the TV, it's not that fabric that will make a difference, because there are much more serious things in the living room to get good sound, the bench behind your guests, the fridge and even the Beatles paintings...
Thank you Matze - and yes you were right. some of the records Joe showed were sold on Discogs . and not only one!
Yup. I bought three he suggested ✌🏼
Thanks Mazzy and thanks Joe!!!!
A pleasure. I really enjoyed it too. ✌🏼.
2006 WAS a bad tour for Dylan. Merle Haggard was amazing though. But I thoroughly enjoyed last year on the Rough and Rowdy Ways and I like most of that album
Hi Mazzy did you do a video on the 2 lp set of Blue Trane? The Kevin Gray release? I looked for it but couldn’t find it
Not a separate video on it , but it’s quite good
I have the Jimmy Giuffre record, great stuff, I would also recommend "the Jimmy Giuffre three", specially with Jim Hall on guitar. I only make this recommendations because I have all these records already, so when they go up....I don't care anymore 🙂
Thank. Hurry up and find them people ✌🏼
Great discussion and recommendations unfortunately mostly unavailable at present to us cd music collectors. Timely as I am off to Oxford to see Bob Dylan tonight at possible the smallest theatre venue of the european tour so should be good

I want to know who made this guy the "King" of Blue Note and why does he get to choose the release titles.
Hey Norman; Tone Poet: my guess is you skipped at least some of the Turrentine albums. As far as the CLASSIC SERIES: it is a shame to release these Blue Note albums in such sub-par jackets. Blue Note artwork is a fundamental part of the equation and label heritage, and these covers just don't match the brand's equity, nor the quality of the pressed plastic. They don't need to reproduce these in the high gloss gatefold covers used on MM/TP, but could step up the quality a couple notch. Just don't do gatefold, but do it well. CRAFTSMANSHIP.
