Umbria Jazz 1985, Barry Harris Trio with a great Leroy Williams on drums (using a TRAK drum kit). Barry Harris (piano), Hal Dodson (bass), Leroy Williams (drums)
Barry Harris left this earth on Wednesday, December 8, 2021. Rest in peace, and thanks for all the wonderful music. The jam session in Heaven will now swing a little harder.
Thanks so much for posting this as this is the first time I got to show my son a video of his grandfather Hal Dodson. Barry was the best mentor to my dad god bless him and Leroy was the nicest person on earth! Thanks for showing them at their PRIME
Barry was in top form playing Bud's "Oblivion" at a really brisk tempo. That's really great authentic bebop playing which only very few people have mastered. Hal Dodson was on bass and he's been with Barry for many years and of course Leroy always sounds great and he's been faithful to Barry for ages. Really wish to see more of this concert as Barry seems very inspired. Thanks a million!
Thanks to YOU! finally this wonderful trio is complete. I wasn't sure at all about the Bass player's name. Your Father is amazing and a great fount of inspiration. Keep in touch. Matt.
@@fryingwiththeantidote2486 I don't know about that quote or method from him.triplets and a couple of other rhythm packets make up the majority of be bop soloing by just about every player ever. And if it's "triplet feeling" that underlies a bluesy swing, and it does, then it makes sense to make some conscious decisions to play triplet patterns, or practice them anyway when you're working on tunes or playing over ii Vs or whatever.
Found'it. The only other song I got is the last one of that set (I believe) and it features Jimmy Slyde dancing on stage with the trio :) ...I'll post it soon.
thanks buddy, it was a very old tape, I will post more soon, but if I remember correctly I should have 1 or 2 songs more. I don't have the whole concert unfortunately. Barry Harris is GREAT.

You MUST watch 'Summer of Soul'. Who is playing bass with Hugh Masekela?!

@Vahayr
Hey buddy, the bass player should be Ron Carter, but I'm not 100% sure.
Thanks for watching.
I've just uploaded another song from that live at Umbria jazz. Hope you like it. Happy new year
He really is thinking about triplets, I can actually hear a difference between him and other musicians now
What do you mean thinking about triplets? Like that “think of 6 not 4 when soloing” thing he says often?
@@fryingwiththeantidote2486 watch his teaching videos... he mentions it here and there.

Thanks to you, I'm still looking for the other songs. I'll do my best. :)

Thank you very much for what you do :)
Btw where did you get these ?
@Vahayr Hal Datson is on bass.
Great video! Is there more footage from this concert?
Great post. I don't believe the bass player is Ron Carter. Besides the beard, it doesn't look like him to me...
thanks buddy, it was a very old tape, I will post more soon, but if I remember correctly I should have 1 or 2 songs more. I don't have the whole concert unfortunately. Barry Harris is GREAT.
Bad video very little of seeing Mr.Harris's hands.
