This is what I love most about jazz. Two guys who haven’t seen each other in years getting together and having a conversation. Just listening, reacting, and creating some truly beautiful music

[ordnassal]

Man, his tone is fantastic but his lyrical thoughtful improv is just as striking.

[edpalermo]

Bob is one of the truly great arrangers, composers and tenor players. A real genius.

[d_soup]

Man, Bob is cooking on this track. Love this.

[raymondkarlsson]

Love Mintzer’s bottom approach. He don’t yell his ideas like many other players.

[lmnbo]

I love hearing the counterpoint just between the two instruments alone. These guys are so good you don’t even miss the rest of the rhythm section. Amazing performance!

[alansenzaki]

The great Chuck Israels and Bob Mintzer...Chucks beautiful natural bass sound!!...reminds me of his playing on Bill Evans Moonbeams album in the sixties.

[ForcedMemeIsAMeme]

Great, tasty playing from two masters. With the spare instrumentation and clear recording, this is a gold mine for transcribing.

[wyndhleodumegwu]

Bob is a storyteller of no little degree; he is magnanimously captivating.

[Berkleesaxman]

Perfection. Bob Mintzer never disappoints. Whether he plays alone or with a full orchestra..he is the saxophonists saxophone player. Always makes it sound and look easy. Bob Mintzer RULES!

Sometimes the YouTube algorithm nails it! Awesome clip, thank you!

[pulledfocusmedia]

As he's talking, It's almost like Mintzer doesn't realize HE IS "some of the greatest jazz musicians, in the world..."

I think I still have those records from the 70s, the National Jazz Orchestra. Tom Ferguson, who directed the band at Arizona State when I was there, had us play some wonderful pieces written by you, Mr. Israels, such as the suite based on Stella by Starlight (Extracts I, I believe) how wonderful! Thank you both!!

must confess to being completely unfamiliar with Mintzer, but I very much enjoyed this chamber jazz performance. Two superb musicians telling it like it is. Thank you for posting this!

[shourovsarker]

[hosseinzahraei]

[stangetz]

no better ambassador for a sax than bob! 1:29 to 1:35 look at the flexibility and nuance in the sound.
