Leave us a comment over on our YouTube channel and we'd like to take this podcast, audio-only podcast and discuss

our comments because it's really, really fun. So last week we did an episode that came out here Thursday on the podcast called Our Seven Favorite 90s albums. I loved making that episode, man, just like listening to our 90s jam. And so we got a bunch of people who also love the 90s and David Brody just commented like four hours ago, Keith Jarrett, live at the Deerhead N. And Benny Green Testifying would make my list. That's a great album. I think we listened to Testifying on the Sesh, didn't we?

Yeah, isn't that Carl Allen? Christian McBride and Christian McBride? Yeah, that's a great record. Yep. Awesome. Okay, cool. So why don't you highlight something first? So another, so our old pal, Zoom from Vancouver,

our seven favorite 90s album says, great stuff. I discovered jazz in the 90s. And I just lost the page. Hold on, hold on Zoom. And saw some great stuff. Thinking about other worthy, worthy. Worthy. Are you reading it now? I'm reading it. I got you back, bro. Thanks, man.

Thinking about other worthy. Oh, yeah, yeah. Bramford Marsalis, you mentioned was an omission, which he really was. And so. Well, Keith Jarrett. I mean, yeah. Okay. Well, then he, yeah. Requiem.

Sue us because we forgot. We said. We didn't say, yeah. It was a hard list to whittle down. Yeah, for sure. Brian on, okay, this is fun. We always like to highlight the episodes that we never knew existed that we've forgotten. Funky smooth voicing.

How to get those funky pop voices. Do you remember that? No. I don't remember that either. Funky pop voice. I got to watch some of our old episodes, man. But Brian just commented a few hours ago. Open Studio All-Stars Jam session is needed.

I love the lessons, but I'm definitely becoming a fan of everyone in your cruise playing. Oh, that's sweet. In our Terry Cruz playing. There you go. And then there was a nice little comment on your Hank Jones. Did you highlight this one already? Sorry. Hipp a lesson with,

I love it when they have the timestamps. Because it'll, sometimes you'll click that, and it'll actually take to a hip little part that we forgot we even did, you know, which is fun. Okay. So Brandon says, he commented on our Oscar Peterson's solo reaction analysis.

Awesome. You should do more solo analysis videos. Yeah. where you been exactly dig a little deeper okay I mean so some people just comment they don't even they're just like homework I hate homework we have regular commenters that um I'm not going to say they're negative regular commenters can be so negative well I'm not going to say they're negative but he's not gonna say it but he's thinking but I will say they're never positive ever ever so omit five commented on that same Hank Jones

Because I retitled it, the best jazz theory teacher ever. Yeah. He said, he's P cool, but he's not Barry Harris. He's P cool? He's P, cool. What does that be? Pretty cool? I suppose so.

Really, too lazy to really? The R, the E, the T, T, T, T, T.I. I mean, how long does that take? Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap. Come on. Step it up. Good. Jarvis Goulet de Castro, about the same episode says,

Adam, your lessons are better and better and better. Thank you very much, my friend. That's awesome. Okay. this is a good question that Ramon Pouser Ramon Puser posts here

we did an episode called the seven Oh, you're going to love this. Seven biggest jazz myths. This is from season two. I was going to say this is supposed to be way back in the day. 84, you're wearing a jazz scarf. We're both wearing sweaters.

A jarf. We're both wearing sweaters. Sweeters. And Ramon Ramon, Ramon, Ramon Pooser. Hi, I like a lot of the content here. On this topic,

there are a few things that stick out. Rather than presenting a response, I would prefer a question. Musicians learn a lot about music along their paths to becoming decent players. With all the theory, coolics, and snappy reharms

that go with them, how much of any of this does a musician have to own? Oh. Was that a question or a dissertation? That was a lot there. I think he was presenting his thesis. That's right.

So I'm not really sure what you mean by own, Ramon, but I don't know. I mean, you got to own all of it. Yeah. You mean like, I own it. It's mine. That's right.

Exactly. So Andrew T. So we've released two performance videos from our friend, Fred Hirsch, the amazing. Oh, man. I'm honored to call him a friend for sure. Our newest master teacher at Open Studio with his wonderful new course, thoughts and experiments with solo piano. But we did, he did a bunch of performances. He was so gracious in the studio, not only the wonderful lessons,

but just some killer solo piano, as you would, if you're Fred Hurst. You just sit at the piano, and if you love the piano, the piano loves you back, like he says. But on the whispered knot that we just released, Andrew T. says, unsolicited promo, subscribe to his course at Open Studio, and you will also see an overhead shot of his hands in a scrolling and printable transcription of this and many other lessons.

Awesome. It's true. Yeah, it's true. And in a lot of ways, the lessons on, you know, posture and life and, you know, harmony, harmonic harmony are wonderful. But in some ways when you have such a great solo pianist like Fred is, just seeing him play and seeing the notes, if you're into that kind of thing with the notation, it's just such a lesson in itself. And just hearing him talk about what he's just played and what is. I mean, it really is, it's just priceless. It really is. Bill Stroller comments, so did you know, Peter, we started a new show on our YouTube channel.

last week. Brand new show from the drummer's perspective. Yes. With Ulysses Owens Jr. Yes, of course. And the very first guest was the great Louis Nash. Absolutely. And Bill comments,

Lewis Nash elevates every album and live performance. Very nice as well when I said hi to him after a show last year with Rini Rosas. Yes. That is, all of that is true. Lewis Nash is nice and he elevates every album of performance that he's on. And this week, I believe on Wednesday,

the next guest on Ulysses' serial Enterprise for us. Look at you is technical terms is Hurlin Riley Yeah Is that something That might interest you On Wednesday

It really is You keep getting me with it I want to be annoyed You keep overusing it But I agree with all of it Yeah Simon or Simol Asks

You know we did that That great Oscar Peterson's Well I thought it was a great Solo reaction And analysis I mean I think the soul is great From the Clark Terry

Plus Trio Or the Oscar Peterson Trio Plus Clark Terry Recording And Simon says

would love to hear you guys analyze O-P solo on Green Dolphin Street. Oh, yeah. From the album, very tall. That's a great record. Now, I haven't listened to that in years. I'll have to go back and check that out because I remember really loving that record. What about the, what is a Mattis?

Matisse, M-A-C-E. Do you know that one? I don't. If I were to give you a definition of that word, is that something they would interest you? Apparently is not a real word. Somebody said, what about the Mattis? or Matisse of Joey Calderazzo,

Joey Genius Cat Calderazzo. I love me some Joey. I do too. Cald. How do you feel about his Matisse? Am I still don't know what that means. I don't think it's a word. I don't know at all what that means.

No, it's not. It's a Slavic concept of a foundation which promotes national culture and gain prominence during the 19th century. Oh, that's Matica. Yeah, I think you need to go back and check that a little bit more. And so there was a moment, we got a couple of people commented on a moment that happened on our episode last week, the 90s video.

Yeah. Remember the 90s, Peter? Do you remember the 90s? We just talked about this. Do you remember the 90s video we made? Yeah, we talked about it. Same thing. So check it out.

There's a little moment that happens here where we sink up. Oh, right, right, right. Do you know what I'm talking about? Yeah, yeah. We were like, woo. Did we say woo? Check it out. Oh.

Let's hear that again. That's so good. Oh. You know you've been listened to a lot of music with your friend when you both like, uh, at the same time. All right. Is this something that you can hear? Is that something that?

No. Okay. Hold on. Excellent. Excellent. Okay, here. Maybe this you'll be able to hear. You know what would interest me?

Hearing your sound right now. Okay. Well, no, so, but I have no idea what this is, but somebody said, really? Okay. so this is from this is another one you probably forgot how does that work playing out

Adam Manus you'll hear it this is one of the solo how does that work yes really sounds like McCoy around 325 interesting well I forgot about that series yeah that's I've ripped off a lot of but that's what it's kind of the point of taking it out is it's about creating drama this was a good episode

folks to check that out how does that work playing out with Adam Manus season five I thought it was how the hell Does that work? Oh, no, it's, what was that? There was something with hell in it once. That's right. And we had like a hell emoji or something.

Geez. Good. What else we got? I think that's about it for this week, folks. Thank you so much for listening. And if you'd like to leave us a comment, go check out our YouTube channel. Yes, we accept comments from everybody. We block some, though.

Oh, you just commented on that synchronized, uh, you said the spontaneous and synchronized, uh. That's literally you just said what he said. Yeah, that's right. Do we want to go out on a negative note? Sure. No, we don't want to do that about the bringing the heat language of a modern master. Buddy, I'm in such a good mood from our new setup here. Nothing you could say. We're not going to do that. We're going to say.
