Reezekeys Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I used to see Stuff at a club called Mikell's in New York. That's where they got started. IIRC they began just jamming there after doing session work during the day. At the beginning there was no cover, or maybe $2 I forget. One night, Joe Cocker sat in with them they were getting ready to tour, I think. His background singers sat at a front table and I remember Joe extending his microphone towards them when they were singing. Back in those days I was mostly into straight-ahead jazz. Seeing these guys play together messed me up good. To hear them live, ten feet away, was a life-changing experience! It was more about the group sound, how they all played together as opposed to the jazzers I was into, where the ensemble playing was secondary to the soloing.

Morrissey Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 You know that piano solo at the 12 minute mark is hot because the bass player is sitting down when it starts but standing up when it ends! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outkaster Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 He was a powerful player too bad he's passed. I am convinced gospel cats have such a different approach to music and and can fit into jazz, blues and rock without feeling contradicted musically. Steve Gadd is from here and will be at the jazz fest this year. Quote "Danny, ci manchi a tutti. La E-Street Band non e' la stessa senza di te.

It must have been one of those experiences that just shocked you. I have had those and they basically tell me to get my ass in gear. Quote "Danny, ci manchi a tutti.

delmar Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I'm ignorant - did the tune around the 16 minute mark inspire EWF's Hearts Afire or are they covering it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABECK Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Man - always have loved Richard Tee. His gospel flair just kills it. I'd love to study his playing more. His chord transitions and voicing kill me (in a good way). I could play just this style for the rest of my days and be fulfilled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobadohshe Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 YES!!! I have never forgotten about this clip or the way Richard Tee plays this breakdown because it is one of those things that just destroyed me when I first saw it. One of those moments where you go 'I WANT TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT' and propels your playing into a different direction forever. That's what happened to me when I discovered Stuff and Richard Tee. I have a bunch of Stuff on my phone in a playlist and whenever I need to recalibrate my time and groove or I need some inspiration I give it a good listen.

Bobadohshe Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 One more observation about Stuff. I think they are the original version of what all these latter day studio groove bands (Scary Pockets, Wulfpeck) are trying to do. But there is only one Richard Tee, only one Steve Gadd and only one Eric Gale.

stoken6 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 But there is only one Richard Tee, only one Steve Gadd and only one Eric Gale. And only one Gordon Edwards. The missing link between Jamerson and 'Nard. Cheers, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone else pointed out It's called That's The Way of The World. Maurice and Verdine White of EWF wrote it along with Charles Stepney. Stuff is covering it with their take on it, just like the other songs they covered in this concert. All good!!

Josh Paxton Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 That set is 60 minutes long. I spent a good 42 of them with full-on stank face. I posted this just the other day on Facebook, but lately in more and more playing situations, I'm finding that Richard Tee is my spirit animal.

But there is only one Richard Tee, only one Steve Gadd and only one Eric Gale. There's a Q&A with Vulfpeck's Jack Stratton somewhere online where a fan asked where Jack got the Stuff shirt that he wore in one of the band's videos. Apparently he traced the logo off of an old video and screened the shirt himself! Quote Samuel B. Lupowitz Musician. Songwriter. Food Enthusiast. Bad Pun Aficionado.

MathOfInsects Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Richard T is one of those 'stratosphere' players who made a massive impression on me from my earliest days of listening to music, never in the, "some day I will play like that" sense, more in the "if I live until the sun goes out, I will never play like that" sense. If I pop out two or three seconds of music in a whole night that even hints at that kind of rhythmic sophistication and grime, I consider it a career game and ask the guitarist's girlfriend if I can touch her hair.

Jazz+ Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Pianists with feel you say... well get a load of the sublime rhythmic feel of Mr. Joe Sample with Benson, shortly before his death from mesothelioma. personally, I was more influenced by Joe growing up than the others.
