Thanks PB. I am so moved. As portuguese I leave 2 stories: he was arrested in a jazz festival in Lisbon when he dedicated a song to the liberating army against portuguese colonial forces in Angola. He did a duo record with the great portuguese guitar( sort of fado 12 string mandoline) Carlos Paredes. He was always looking and finding hidden genius. And creating beauty for the times to come. CH❤

Charlie was the first musician that understood Ornette right out of the gate. I saw him with Ornette and Pat doing “Song X” with Jack DeJohnette. Mind bending! Around the same time I heard him with Old and New Dreams. Their version of “Lonely Woman” complements the original version in a warm and tender way.

1994. I was 1st chair of the bass section of the Junior Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra. We had a 2 year stint serving as the "house orchestra" of the then new Verbier Festival in Switzerland. There was no internet at the time so I don't remember how I got the news of "Charlie Haden's Liberation Music Orchestra" performance at the Montreaux Jazz Festival happening just a short train ride from our festival! Turned out that show will take place on a free day for our orchestra! I pulled a few strings and got the whole bass section of the JIPO tickets for that show! we all went there together to see and hear the show and it was a fantastic experience....Thank you CH for all the music and soul.

Charlie Haden is one of my absolute favourite bass players. I learned so much about bass playing listening to him. 'Beyond the Missouri Sky' is one of my favourite records. I first saw him live with Pat Metheny on the 80/81 tour on 1. September 1981 and was stunned, how much more intense he was live (and everyone else too). I had listened to the record a hundred times at that moment but that was something else. It was one of the concerts I'll never forget (If I look back, all PM concerts from 1980 on are on that list 🙂). Another great bass player who i.m.h.o changed the way of playing double bass in a different unique but sometimes similar way and worth exploring is Eberhard Weber.

Maybe a weird pick: Keith Jarrett's "Arbor Zena". That album really moves me and I can't imagine another bass player bringing more depth and beauty to that recording. If I could see ANY concert/gig in history-I see myself at one of Ornette Coleman's first gigs at The Five Spot. Sitting at one of their tiny tables in direct earshot of Haden's bass. Everyone's skin has the sheen of sweat. It is steamy and smoky. For anyone in that room, this is not an annoyance, but just an natural part of the vibe .

What a wonderful tribute. I have so many records with Charlie Haden--I think because if I see he's on something I trust it will be outstanding. His work on Survivor Suite and Abour Zena is almost painfully beautiful. I did have one personal encounter; I was seating at his feet in the McDonel Kiva at MSU on 11/4/80, a very informal gig in which all the band members were setting up their own gear. He made a face of such terrible distress that I involuntarily blurted out "is everything okay?" He looked at me sadly and said "I just heard Reagan won the election."

Thanks for putting a well deserved spotlight on the great Charlie Haden. A honorable mention must go to the outro of Bruce Hornsby's song 'Stander On The Mountain' from the album 'A Night On The Town' (1990) where Charlie's presence really comes to the forefront. By the way: I'm a drummer not a bassist but always had a soft spot for great basslines (as every drummer should). I'd love to see you discuss 4 absolute giants of the instrument: 1.) Renaud Garcia-Fons, e g 'Oriental Bass' (1997), or any track from 'The Marcevol Concert' (2012) 2.) Jeff Berlin, especially his stellar work on Bill Bruford's 1979 album 'One Of A Kind' 3.) Tony Levin (too many great records to choose from) 4.) Larry Klein, criminally overlooked bassist/producer, also Joni Mitchell's ex-husband, who played on her 1982 record 'Wild Things Run Fast' and subsequent albums like 'Chalk Mark In A Rain Storm' (1988), or 'Turbulent Indigo' (1994). Also check out his contribution to Robbie Robertson's self-titled solo album (1987) on the track 'Showdown At Big Sky'. Thanks again and keep up the good work !

I saw Charlie Haden at a jazz club around the late 1980's. I was still in college then. I came up to him after a set and had a conversation with him. One of the things that I asked him about was the concept of playing out or atonal, abstract. I would wonder what guys think about and their note choices are when playing out. He told me, and I'll always remember this, "is what you're playing beautiful? Is it beautiful?"

I loved when he used to snap his index finger against his Palm after striking a note and you could hear the snap. I would give you an example but it's been over 25 years since I have had any recordings because I lost everything a few times because of a terrible addiction problem. When I first started playing around the age of 18 I was mesmerized by Charlie haden and ornette and was going that route but when I was going to jam sessions in Washington DC everyone was telling me that if I wanted to work I had to learn tunes so I could play the club date jobs and put on a tuxedo, and having two children by the age of 22 that is what I started doing and got away from pursuing my love of Charlie haden ...one of my biggest regrets ..now that I am almost 70 and I don't even have a stand-up bass and just play the guitar background music at restaurants to make a few extra dollars to supplement my social security check. My recommendation to any young bass players out there that also love Charlie haden and that music is get a good teacher and get good technique and when you're ready go to New York and start talking and playing with other musicians and don't think that you can do everything on your own. That was my downfall was my inability to approach other people and not reaching out to better players. Oh and don't go to New York until your financially prepared and know at least a few people over there so when you get there you don't end up sleeping at a $12 a night flop House in the bowery !! I'll never forget what Gary Bartz told me one time. Even bad bass players work in New York 😎 what a great job you did in this video and I hope to see more of the things that you do on KZitem.

Haden was the first guy that came to my awareness as a kid that made me realize - "Wait - there are god-tier *bass* players?" The guy must've had a grip like gravity - he's really powering into it with both hands. You can tell for one because it seems to my ear that a lot of ppl have difficulty (on all kinds of stringed instruments) in keeping tonal balance - it can be very noticeable on double bass because they just can't make the low notes sing out as well. If anything his were stronger in some passages. If I may make a suggestion - when you give a list like that, if you would put it into the description (even if just text, but links would be nice), then it would make it easier for ppl to just copy that info instead of going back to the end of the video and manually writing all that down. For that matter (looking at your website) if you did a short accompanying write-up on your blog with that info and linked it here you might drive engagement back-and-forth. I had a little chuckle at the two lint rollers back there on the shelf - gotta keep those black t-shirts pristine for the camera, eh? 😁

In classical music I feel that there are composers who perfected an existing language (Mozart) others who hybridized multiple styles into something dazzling (Stravinsky) and others who just walked into the room with something fully formed that we all just need to take on board (Debussy). I think that your presentation really gets across what makes Charlie Haden a Debussy/Stravinsky-type of figure. The bringing together of deep folk music roots and advanced jazz is an innovation and a huge gift to all creative musicians of our day. Thanks for the space to ramble here.

He often doubled notes to give space when needed, but also knew how to build energy and anticipation when needed. His vocabulary is completely unique. Many jazz musicians and educators didn't (and still don't) recognize his greatness likely because they couldn't do what him and Ornette were doing. His playing is deep and doesn't utilize the vocabulary of bassists like Oscar Pettiford, Paul Chambers, Ray Brown, etc. Like Lennie Tristano, Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, and a few others, Charlie Haden carved out a new path in jazz music that wasn't just an addition to the past, it was something completely new. Every bassist is studying to play like Paul Chambers, Ray Brown, and Ron Carter and many can do so very well. But studying Charlie Haden is completely different and helps bring back the creativity that gets lost in improvised music.

thanks for the video, PD!! I am also a Haden fan, started listening to him on the Quartet West recordings. He's got so many recordings it's hard to know them all. My fav recording (of the ones I know) is the Night and the CIty duo recording with Kenny Barron. And was blessed to hear him live with Pat Metheny in Germany on the Missouri Sky tour of the early 2000s. Amazing experience. Also, I thought Roberston's had sold that instrument already, like a few years ago! I'm gonna be in that neighborhood in a few months, time to make a phone call....

My favorite! His daughters are all very talented as well. Petra's a cappella stuff is great fun.
