Grangur Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1484049640' post='3212171'] It was very warranted trust me. Did anyone do a Funk version of Bridge Over Troubled Water.? [/quote] Yes... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bS4T_r6rmk Quote

bubinga5 Posted January 10, 2017 Author Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) [quote name='timmo' timestamp='1484044091' post='3212110'] I really hated Rock It. I never gave him any chance as I never knew anything about him. However, I was Youtube browsing a few weeks ago, and came across a concert with Tal Wilkenfield on bass. I realised there was a lot more to him than Rock It. I need to look up more stuff by him [/quote]You know this gonna be funky. Does anybody know who the drummer is.?

Cyrene Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Having heard nearly everything recorded by him I can honestly say his work on electric piano with Miles (particularly 'Stuff') exhilarates more than anything. Quote
obi 2 kenobi Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Love this track... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0c38Wtdvz0 Classic funk.....with Ready Freddy.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogKDBbi2thA Quote
Wylie Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 His album Speak Like a Child features Ron Carter as both composer and player; and the bass is right up front in a very tight production. Some wonderful tunes. Quote
dlloyd Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I like his playing with the second miles quintet... but Maiden Voyage and Empyrean (sp?) Isles are great too/ Quote
JoeEvans Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I think I've listened to Maiden Voyage more than any other album by anyone, ever. It just never loses it for me. Quote
tinyd Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 [quote name='dlloyd' timestamp='1484074320' post='3212498'] I like his playing with the second miles quintet... but Maiden Voyage and Empyrean (sp?)

paul_5 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 [quote name='tinyd' timestamp='1484041351' post='3212081'] He's one of my favourites but if I had to pick one tune it would be Maiden Voyage [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwmRQ0PBtXU[/media] [/quote] This. magnificent tune. Quote
Bastav Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I like a lot of his stuff but my fav period of his would be the mwandishi period... Or the funky period with Mike clark/Paul Jackson... http://youtu.be/4EhBMShSepw http://youtu.be/KxBkmMOh0Uc Quote
bubinga5 Posted January 10, 2017 Author Posted January 10, 2017 A young Roy Hargrove and Mr Miller on a P Bass. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV8LFNOxHks Quote
el-gnomo Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 I love pretty much everything he's done, but as nobody has mentioned it yet, I think his soundtrack for the film Blow Up is fantastic. It also includes his most recognisable tune, well, sort of..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmqRTtSDzCQ Quote

His score on "Death Wish" was pretty hip at the time as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PozTnnkwZ5g Quote
Kevin Glasgow Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1484033052' post='3212018'] Huge fan of HH - this is one of my favourites. Funnily enough I have previously posted this in funk thread and was told that it is not funk! Just goes to show how different perceptions are: [media]http://youtu.be/lfK5dppG1xg[/media] [/quote] What a groove! I need to go back and check that album out again. Quote
Kevin Glasgow Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 I've been listening to this one a lot recently. It's got a mega groove! I love the way he uses those harmonics, super funky! [media]http://youtu.be/eVJFuAZJAb8[/media] Quote
miles'tone Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 [quote name='timhiggins' timestamp='1484036762' post='3212040'] I think this is one of the funkiest things ever cut only trouble is its the Headhunters without Herbie ! http://youtu.be/mzifRDyPtd0 [/quote] He did produce it though! Quote
miles'tone Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 All of the above, but my fave is this live sesh in Bremen, Germany 1974. Paul Jackson in particular is killin it here.. http://youtu.be/GAlejqkd-gg Quote

Will watch the whole thing later tonight, when everyone has gone to bed.... Quote
Bilbo Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 By a country mile.... Herbie with Wynton Marsalis, Ron Carter and Tony Williams. One of the most important LPs that I heard early on as I got into Jazz, played to me by a drummer friend. I bought the CD a couple of years ago and I could remember so much of it note for note. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xM1kUW3CI4 Quote
lowdown Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 That's only just turned up on YouTube, I was looking for that early last year. Great album. I wanted to buy that album when it was first released, but it was only on a Japanese import at the time, and cost a fortune. Quote
deepbass5 Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 I came across this about a year ago via a Buddy Rich composition video with Hakim on drums - so here you go 4 masters - Bass players not bad. do wait for the bass solo https://youtu.be/JixfzsQWZ8c Quote
