that bit of conversation starting around 3:12 comparing syncopation to 'ghost notes' is so enjoyable

there is a ton of fantastic music to be found if you elect to follow the Bobby Timmons trail.
another great talent with an abbreviated life

a bootleg composition of highlight recordings from Miles' first great quintet, put on tape May and October '56
i think of these as the Prestige 'apostrophe' recordings at the tail end of his contract with them, right around the time he was making the transition to Columbia

walkin'
cookin'
relaxin'
workin'
steamin'

Miles Davis — trumpet
John Coltrane — tenor saxophone
Red Garland — piano
Paul Chambers — bass
Philly Joe Jones — drums



Miles and Trane were both 30 at this time, and on the cusp of taking the shape of jazz to come into separate unpredictable directions.
ready Ornette, that's what happened

i hope to never overlook or under appreciate hearing the rhythmic impact of the bass and drums in a jazz piano trio.

if you happen to wonder, this version features Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen.

that was yet another early 60's recording from tokyo.
at that time japan appears to have had a unique open mind and appetite for recording powerhouse american jazz.

may i direct the attention of others (not Mack) to the part that starts around the three minute mark, but focus on the two blurry guys in the background.

a quarter minute later Riley turns to Gales with a 'what exactly did i just hear' sort of look, and that reaction pretty much sums up for the rest of us.
he has that huge ring on the right little finger
i swear the more i watch his hands in that video
the more i think he has intentionally adjusted the level of difficulty to 'expert' to keep himself interested
playing a mini-game within the song by not allowing the ring to touch the keys
even though he's playing with the fat side down and almost slappin' palms.
