Quicy Jones Interview

Quincy Jones - The CMW Interview 

This interview is interesting, not only beacause "Q" is one of my absolute source of inspiration, but he is really a "cool cat", with a lot of wisedom, not only in music, but he also has a lot to say about life itself, its ups and downs,  and in his career or course or progress through life (or a distinct portion of life). In this definition, career is understood to relate to a range of aspects of an individual's life, learning and work. 

Life in music is not always a Viennawalz of flowers, smiles and happiness.

Remember that you are a human being too, like everybody else. Age in Jazzmusic has no significance at all, but experiences has, sometimes they both meet in a corner that calls for respect, and a thoughtful attitude.

Bobby Hutcherson Quintet - Teddy

Pat Metheney (a must see)

I written before things about my inspirational sources,  if you read about different musicians, or composers, and if you by the nature , are a little bit courious. You will find things that are just amazing about some. (Check earlier articles below)

There are some guys... OK, let´s call them Jazzcats... that.....

 I don´t  even know words for this ...  if there are any, I will not print them here.

I think this is a "on the border" to ... WHAT?!

Is PM serious or is he joking, here I don´t know?

I know for sure that Jazzcats are guys that likes to play  and compose music.

Some of these guys are like small boys, still fascinated of machineries,  different music devices, different guitars , robots, computers and other "toys" to play with..

But who isn´t?

When I first saw this I immediately  associated to a book by one of my favourite writers, Ray Bradbury.

Today you do not need all this stuff, just an ordinary Midi-keyboard and a suitable program for your computer.  And beleive me, you can do stuff with just a little 2-octave keybord that sounds like a whole Symphony orchestra, PM knows that for sure , but I think he likes to see how the music is made also, and how it moves, and as he says by whom.

My comments: LOL, and WOW! The world of music can sometimes be amusing!

 

Stevie Wonder - Sir Duke

To have Aspects on, and....

To Compare....

To Contrast a subject to another,,,

Similarity....

Relationship....

Harmonise....

Crossover....

Unite....

  Isn´t it strange that these words above are also in use when you talk about other artforms 

like design, paintings, movies, arcitechture, literature, poetry, photography and sometimes how humans and the nature itself  behave?

In music terminology they are common, but the meaning, of these are intepreted different.

If you were living in the age of Mozart, some of these words could mean the opposite....

And even so  to another generation, perhaps?

Jazzmusic, is an international language , but this language has a lot of dialects, but the intention and the spirit of the music is still constant. The music and performers are always in motion. To the better hopefully. The receiver has "work to do" to try to understand, and focus on the whole musicpiece  as a unit, while instead those long solo parts are so distractful.

No, thats wrong, Jazzmusic is freedom... it gives you totally freedom to listen to the special parts of your tune, the tune YOU like... and you do not have to understand, who told you so?

Maybe that´s why some people disregard Jazzmusic as trash, or confused music?

Maybe because of it´s soul and spirit, just doesn´t follow certain rules

that comes from your own experiece, culture and the music that is surrounding you?

Well, all interpretations are wrong or right,?

Am I right or am I wrong?

-Treat the music well, it´s our best friend - Lee Ritenour

 

Lee Ritenour - Asa (1987)

My top 12 sources of Music inspiration part 4

-Music can be more beautiful if you read about it.

   Well, sometimes in away, this could be true. But as in all artforms it´s in the eyes of the beholder. In all studies of music, if you are taking lessons on a instrument, or just a devoted listener who likes to know more about composers, performers or artists works, it´s a very good help. You will undoubtable come across the word inspiration. 

As you already have noticed my own instrument is guitar. But it doesn´t matter, what kind of instrument you play, these thoughts of mine can be applicated on all kinds of instrument or listeners.

In contemporary music or "jazzoriented " styles you will be able to distinct different gengres.  Some are typical "children of their time" and some are so called "evergreens". These expressions means different things to almost everyone, but the there are songs, tunes or melodies that´s have some sort of "spirit" in themselves, those tunes can be heard and played for generations and still sounds good. You will also encounter a lot of different styles, that had great impact to a lot of jazzmusicians/ composers.

I will not say that it´s a sign of quality, but maybe it´s on that road, what you will find, and understand, when you read bout music and performers.

Today we have Internet and YouTube, were you can find interviews , records, concerts, songs and tutural schools for all kinds of instruments. That´s a good source of inspiration.

But nothing compares to a live concert that you visited. Maybe you also had a chance to meet the artist (s) afterwards for an autograph or just give him/her a pat on the shoulder with a smile and apprectiation. These moments are unfortenatuly rare, but if your lucky, some of these artists like to meet their audience too. Hopefully you also get an unforgettable memory to let your own inspiration will  come to be in full bloom, who knows? 

Jazzmusic is an artform that in its nature is explorational, seeking and often constantly changing and developing, so does the jazzcats too. Some stay tight to thier roots or gengres, and some can jump on differet "trains or tracks". Some might just "Twist" their own a little bit...Sometimes you even think that the next album or consert will be predictable of your favourite (s) , you think you know that, but you are often surprisingly wrong, thats typical for good musicians and performimg artists too,  I think.

There is nothing wrong or right here, it´s just up to the musicians themselves, but one must consider if you are a professional, you have a "responsibility" not to make your fans disapointed. Thats a tricky one for all artists....

No 3:

George Gershwin.

Quotes from the net:

"Anything that could be imagined, could be attempted. Gershwin imagined a world-renown popular songwriter and a world-renown classical composer and he attempted just that. He was not totally successfull, but then who is? In truth, he was successful enough to change the musical landscape"

 

 

/

"Gershwin, a man without a past, created music that comes to life -- and demolishes the distinction between serious and trivial -- when performers forget about its period trappings and make it sound contemporary. Pop and jazz artists do so without even thinking, but most "echt" twentieth-century music subjects performers to the tyranny of the composer's minute commands. Performers should profit from the freedom that Gershwin scores allow. Old-time modern music now sounds very "period" indeed. Perhaps Stravinsky was right: instead of continuing to give Gershwin posthumous lessons in how to be a composer, we should let him teach us."

No 2 :

Janne Shaffer/ Björn J.son Lind (Sweden)

These two cats goes on the same ticket, Janne Schaffer and J:son Lind played in the same band Earmeal ( fusion or contemporary) for several years but has also done several albums in their own name. Both JS and BJL have written tunes were you can find elements of Swedish traditional foikmusic and  The tune  "Norrland" (North-Sweden)  below by JS is a good example of this.

Of all bands that I have ever seen live, Earmeal must be the one I have seen most of . They both have different musical backgrounds, but together they are a perfect team, both as songwriters and proffessional musicians. Needless to say that I have all their records. Two great sources of inspiration for me, and most of their music are "timeless".

My top 12 sources of Music inspiration part 3

To have an impact or effect on; influence;

Alter: to make different in some particular, as size, style, course, or the like; modify:

 

Inspiration:

1. Stimulation or arousal of the mind, feelings, etc, to special or unusual activity or creativity.

2. The state or quality of being so stimulated or aroused.

3. Someone or something that causes this state.

4. An idea or action resulting from such a state.

Prediction and associassions :

In all kind of western music (all sort) there is a form, a platform to stand on. You can call it a type of regularity too.

1. Rythm

2. Tempo

3. Harmonies, Chords and the main melodies

4. Dynamics

5. Musical form or shape like a Dance, a Symphony, a Ballad or a Raphsody.

6. A Theme often an Intro or a Chorous.

7. You can breake up a tune into small fragments of the above

 for example A-B-A-A or A-B-A-C and the pattern will be repeated.

In older Classical music you can find it very easy to notice these things. Bach, Mozart and Hyden had Fuges, Trio-forms etc, that were constructed to be in a special form, and those were strict rules not to be broken. Later on these rules were broken by other famus composers, but that´s history.. 

But in Improvised music like Jazz it could sometimes be hard to find those regularities. Thats were the fun begins, the performer (instrumentalist) are exploring his/her possibillities and ways of expressions. That´s the nature of Jazz.

Jazzmusic often comes from the root Blues, but not nessecerely.

Because of the "sender" instrumentalists needs platforms and regularities to stand on.  Groove it! Hang on! Hit it! Go! Keep on! 

All jazzmusicians who performs improvised music has associations in mind, it could be what kind of style that´s sets off  the inspiration.

There are a few "wonderkids" or "born genious" in music.

Those cats have everything served for them, but to the ordinary jazzcat it´s all hard work, nothing comes free without practicing and learning.

There are also very few jazzcats that really can live on their artform.

It is sad but it´s true!

Some, might be professional Studiomusicians, or has a steady income pay from teaching. All these guys have got their inspiration from former musical experiences,it´s just how you conceive, grasp or develop your skills.

In jazzmusic, it is the teaching of pitch and rhythm recognition, called eartraining.

  Part 2

It is very important to know when you talk about inspirations of artists, a live performance like a concert you have been to, is in fact sometimes much more different than a recorded album.  These are things that you must have in mind with all kind of musicart experieces, and especially Jazzmusic were the whole thing is about improvisation, a direct communication with the listener, that can never be reproduced.

My top 12 sources of Music inspiration 

  No 8: Wes Montgomery and George Benson

These two Jazzguitarists are very similar to each other, so they go on the same ticket.

Wes Montgomery is a Jazzguitarist that inspierd thousands of guitarists with his techniques of using octaves in his playing. Not only that, but he had an enormous ear of harmony changes in the songs. He used this with e.g superimposed scales or block-chords. He never used a pick either, just his thumb, to get his sound.

 

Bumpin on sunset

Impressions (1965)

 

George Benson is a younger Jazzguitarist that clearly has his inspirational source from WM. He uses the same octave-Techniques but in a more distinct and a more modern way, uses a pick in soloing and he is also a singer , Studiomusician and a great entertainer too.

This Masquerade

  No 7: Bill Evans

A Jazzpianist/Composer with a unique style in harmony, that nobody else can even get close too. Some might call him a "barpianist", some say too soft and not Jazz, too much sweet... Well, I don´t thinks so. Many things and stories about him are to be found on the net. Check the link below. Above is probably the most popular album recorded live, and considered the absolute best album of his by the critics.. Well ?

/ 

No 6 : Pat Metheney Group 

 

Pat Metheny - So May It Secretly Begin

/

Pat Metheny Group - Into the dream - Have you heard 1998

/

 

Pat Metheney is a speciall guitarist, and so is PM Group.

PM Group plays sometimes totaly different music than PM himself on records. He performs often with his group but sometimes alone too. His solo albums in his own name could be surprisingly different. The conserts of this group are strictly arranged and improvisations are upto the pianist and himself. The "airy" soft sound and lyrical melodies are also typical of PM Group. The way he plays and the sound he has makes it very difficult to copy, and it´s even useless to even try. It will just makes you stupid, and there are few trying to, because they just cannot do the things he does. Simply, but true facts!

Music is a language of emotions, feelings and expressions.

Everyone has a special relation to the music he or she likes and dislikes.

Music can put your emotions, feelings and memories  to places you never before knew existed.

And someone once told me, if you have an openminded heart, you´ll always find something in music that will catch your moods or impressions.

It might be a good song/ melody or a composition/arrangement.

Or it could also be the performer/artist/artists singer or group.

There is also a great deal how you listen to your music.

That also depends on how your knowledge and curiosity in your love for music might be.

I am of that "school" that thinks: the more music (all kinds) you have encountered, the more you´ll train your musical knowlege it helps you to sort out things that´s not your "bag" in music. Instead you´ll find your own gemstones

If you are serious, amateur or beginner on a instrument or just a ordinary listener, some of the following music maybe, gives you a hint of my thougts of music that I like, and have liked. Some of these are still  in the source of Inspirations, and some are almost forgotten, but they are still in the good old banks of memories.

If it´s good or bad it´s not me to judge. It´s your opinion, that counts. It´s always nice to share music that you like with others.

For the coming few days I will give you My Top 12 list of Musicians/performers.

For you guys who have been followed my blogg Jazz Spectrum 55, probably already knows what is coming.... or maybe, there will be some surprises for you?

The reason I do this is that it´s now a year sice I started my Blogg Jazz Spectrum 55!

International #JazzDay: Herbie Hancock and George Benson: "Walkin'"

 

Två "mästare" håller hov!

Kolla GB: s min efter HH:s inledande solo, ja vad ska man säga ...?

Efter det solot får man gräva långt ner i fantasin för att svara upp till något motsvarande... men här görs ändå tappra försök.... "stackare" att komma efter ett sådant solo.. Där krävs mer än mod!

När till och med GB nästan skakar på huvudet, och tappar hakan.... så imponerande....!

OBS! här är det Jazz i den högsta Musikaliska skolan, men sådan är jazzmusiken när den är som bäst, att låta fantsin flöda. Kul har dom ju det märks tydligt, och så kan det få bli ibland!
