Breaking Down Ramsey Lewis’ SUMMER BREEZE (1973)

#bass #jazz #analysis #transcription #reaction #paulthompson Let’s dig into one of the most popular Jazz performance videos on YouTube - Ramsey Lewis’ incredible interpretation of Seals & Crofts’ “Summer Breeze“. I’ll break down what makes this arrangement so special harmonically and how Cleveland Eaton and Morris Jennings show us how to communicate without a word on a gig while laying down a DEEP GROOVE. I’ll also talk about why people seem to love the sound of the bass in this video. The anatomy of a great song, and the other songs it birthed!
