I thank God for the blessing of working with Freddie twice. I would sometimes forget to solo because I was so mesmerized by what I was seeing & hearing from this unmatched trumpet juggernaut of the 20th century. 🙏🏼
Each time I heard Freddie, he went beast mode. 1980 at the Armadillo in Austin; his trumpet must have been lost in flight, he played his entire show on flugel horn. Summer, indoor, no ac in a 3 piece suit.
Man... when Freddie was at the top of his game, has there been anyone better? Clifford Brown is my ultimate musical hero, but Freddie is a TIGHT second.
When I played trumpet just getting the G on top of the stave was an tricky process. I played recitals at school with my knees knocking together with fear from the uncertainty that all the notes on the music sheet were going to be available. My teacher was not a lot of help and just a professional player supplementing his income who really had little idea how to help anyone else learn the skill. How people like Freddie managed to do what they did on a bit of crude plumbing without the assistance of a reed is astounding and his lip blew out in the end which is hardly surprising. I heard he did a tour in Japan with a cold sore which did not help so sad things did not end well for him. Also chemical assistance to his life style did not help and a stint with the Art Blakey band sadly did not exactly help a few musicians in this respect. But then without the drugs as with some poets would we have this inspirational work we enjoy so much and they sacrifice themselves for the art.
I produced my first video for" Gillby's Gin" with "Freddie" at a jazz club called "Mr"s" located in Symphony Hall Newark.,New Jersey. In between takes, he told me how Reggie Workman and Miles Davis were both most inspirational in his development as a musician. All respect to Freddie.
Had the honor of knowing this monster Jazz musician. He even handed me his horn once to try out some effects it was plugged into. On top of his incredible talent a true gentleman.
This is not meant to slight Miles Davis, I never was able to get into his sound. On the other hand, Freddie Hubbard blows the hell ouuta the horn. He is the top horn player that I've heard.
Glad to see somebody acknowledge that aspect of Hub's playing. His firebreathing intensity and technical mastery are all justly celebrated but I find not enuf people talk about how soulful, lyrical, and deeply moving he was on the slower things. He's brought me to tears on pieces like "A Bientot", "Mirrors", and "Here's That Rainy Day".
@@satishrobertson8771 Freddie's balladry brings out the spiritual gratitude in me. Looking at pictures of my kids with Freddie playing...it doesn't get any better!
Freddie Hubbard played the trumpet with swagger and balls. But also had technique and beautiful taste. He is the Jimi Hendrix of the trumpet and an idol to all us trumpet boys out there that need a hero.
Far and away my favourite Trumpeter, such a strong and distinctive sound that makes other players appear very thin and watery by comparison. Freddie is greatly missed and impossible to replace. The nearest match we have today IMHO would be Arturo Sandoval; who like Freddie made it sound as if the horn would split open under the intensity of his tone and phenomenal chops.
Had he lived, I believe Hargrove would have reached the level of Freddie, or close-- A. Sandavol, as well. Freddie -- like Wynton and Miles-- are simply in classes of their own.
Roy left his own mark. There are cats out here who prefer RH over any of the names mentioned. Freddie himself considered Roy one of his favorites of the young trumpeters. Just like Freddie, Miles, and many other greats before him did, Roy Hargrove brought something to the table that only HE could've brought and in turn has influenced legions.
These videos are no doubt bad ass but I’m sorry to say that this video of Freddie playing Cherokee is by far the craziest czcams.com/video/D4bgd2yAY54/video.html

Freddie was my friend but was also one of the baddest trumpet players of my life.thank you Freddie I miss you!
Thank you thank you thank you Bernie
He was a very special man, crazy, loud, strong, silly, egoistic and to much of a trumpetplayer RIP Freddie

So great
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 OMG Love this DUDE
I always think of Freddie as a boxer..throwing those combinations, with a twist at the end of the punch, just cutting you to pieces.
We listen and enjoy many great jazz artists but Freddie is the only one that gets into your bloodstream.
Freddie only had one mode....FULL BEASTMODE!!
HOW CRAZY CAN IT GET!!!
😂 LOL
Forgot on BlueNote session, Cantaloupe Island
This is not meant to slight Miles Davis, I never was able to get into his sound. On the other hand, Freddie Hubbard blows the hell ouuta the horn.
He is the top horn player that I've heard.
THE 7 times Freddie was in Full Beast Mode? What about the other 2 million times? I never saw him when he wasn't!
Shreddie Freddie
they should rename the video Freddie participates in 16 min drag race.
Freddie's the kind of soloist that really excites his fellow musicians.
This is all phenomenal, but it's Freddie's slow, soul-drenched lyrical playing which puts him at the top!

#2 good luck if you want to transcribe it
Toughest ever

Air, he knows how to blow air while staying relaxed.
@@oldGB1 He used a lot circular air breathing techniques that allowed him to do extended long tones, then come back to the medley. AMAZING!!
