Aside from that ... ( 9 months ago by fretbuzz59)

Aside from that open-string lick going on too long, and not being especially clean, to my ears, the main thing is that Martino doesn't swing AT ALL! That near-staccato picking style just doesn't flow. Sounds like I'm listening to a machine. Joey and Wookie swing nicely, though.

I think he mainly ... ( 9 months ago by PatrickjazzguitarBro)

I think he mainly plays those 16th notes which don't swing like 8ths do. Although DeFrancesco plays 16ths, he plays the 8ths too. I think the B-3 has sustain and attack that feels very legato. But I don't think Martino can be minimized here!

Nothing I can say ... ( 9 months ago by fretbuzz59)

Nothing I can say will minimize Pat in the minds of his devotees. And there's no question he's a monster. I've just never cared for his style or sound.

Fair 'nuff ( 9 months ago by PatrickjazzguitarBro)

Cool. I should add ... ( 9 months ago by fretbuzz59)

Cool. I should add, I generally like WHAT he plays here, but I just don't like HOW he plays it.

I dont see how ... ( 9 months ago by orlandoCF1)

I dont see how these guys can criticize Pat like this. Pat's style is a lot like George Benson's when it come to bop and swing even though George swings a bit more. Do you dis George like this. Please enjoy the music.

Do those smart ... ( 9 months ago by aharambol)

Do those smart asses, who critisize Pat Martino know, what happened to him in 1980? After the first part of his career in the 60s and 70s he had to learn the guitar from the very beginning after he had survived a severe brain aneurysm. I wonder if these ignorants could achieve the same... well, of course it's a lot easier to critisize.

I don't care what ... ( 9 months ago by zachNewYork)

I don't care what anyone here says although some of it's amusing. I love the way he plays and I really don't give a shit if this person or the other one is better or stole this or that from whomever. Who the fuck really cares? Just listen to it and enjoy it or shut the fuck up move on already.

I spent an hour with Pat after his gig at Yoshis He is a soulful cool dude He comes right after Wes > even Wes said so and Jim Hall George Benson Kenny Burrell Are Right There

Pat Martino is a " ... ( 8 months ago by guitarttimman)

Pat Martino is a "REAL" guitar genius. He developed his own style which is impeccable. You just don't find guitarist like this guy anymore! The people who criticize him do so because they can't play at his level now nor will they ever be able to! Mr. Martino is my "favorite" "modern" be-bop style player.

i dont understand ... ( 8 months ago by SHNJE)

i dont understand these jazz traditionalists i meam jazz is jazz because of individual styles from charlie christian to django to pat matheny to joe pass to wes i mean they all havbe different stylesagree with u totally guitarttiman

pat has the 8th notes in jazz..

Ha yeah that open ... ( 8 months ago by ICreamsodAI)

Ha yeah that open string lick was kinda ill concieved...
Almost surprising to me actually. He has my favorite picking technique out of any jazz player ive heard, and does it so clean usually. But that open sting lick was really, really sloppy. Martino is still the best though :D

I have to agree ... ( 8 months ago by DrFred8519)

I have to agree with aharambol- for a guy to play at the level he played at in the 60's, suddenly get robbed of the ability to do so by illness, and relearn his art to play at this level is nothing short of phenomenal. Simply fabulous jazz at any tempo-

yeah sure ... ( 8 months ago by ItalianTali)

yeah sure DAYTONACOUPE65, and I spent an hour with uncle Martin when he was gigging on Mars. Yep, sure did! why he even showed me how to make objects float around LOL

What ever happened to Eric Kloss...a tenor player that played with Martino? He seems to have disappeared....they had a nice little group back in the late 60's

Eric Kloss been very ill with a strange kind of chemical infestation. The GivenGain project is asking for donations.

Gotta tell you, I ... ( 6 months ago by Duck8107)

Gotta tell you, I saw Pat Martino performing at Blues Alley in DC last Friday night and he was amazing. He most certainly does have his own unique style, a "fat" sound born of his use of thick strings and his own creativity and skill. He's also an engaging personaility that makes you feel welcome. It was one of the best live shows I've seen in some time.

those are 16th ... ( 6 months ago by gitterk)

those are 16th notes by the way.

That's a good ... ( 6 months ago by padleynj)

That's a good question! I haven't seen him or heard about him since early 80's! I thought he was playing alto then...A very talented player.

I was there also! ... ( 5 months ago by notbendable)

I was there also! ...and I agree and felt the same way.

Same thing- I don't ... ( 1 month ago by sitarnut)

Same thing- I don't know what happened to Eric but,he was so talented and a fresh voice!.. his "Grits & Gravy" LP is staggering- Also, DOORS LP & "Consciousness" LP with "Sunshine Superman" in 7/4 with Martino and Chick Corea- too much!! Eric was also on Mr. Rogers TV Show. I miss him a lot.
