Because of this greatest drummer, and his 'Big Band Machine' I'm able to play drums again, after 8.5 years of Cancer, and all the Hell that goes with it. I just kept watching/listening to Buddy, and the band, and finally, plus alot help from God, got my spark back!!!!!!!!

I would argue this is the definitive recording of the Oliver Nelson arrangement of “In a Mellow Tone.” Solid sax soli, probably the best solo I’ve ever heard played over this song by the great Al Grey, amazing trumpet solo by Greg Gisbert(19yo here btw), sublime lead playing by Eric Miyashiro with some fantastic and very tasteful high notes, and of course a very energized performance by Buddy Rich. Doesn’t get much better than that.

Yeah that's Buddy kickin it @ 68 years old... There will never be another like him. Jazz is the best and one of the most difficult to play..
@jasonyoung9226 Жыл бұрын
More talent on that stage than the entire last 30 years of music performers added together 🤷 just phenomenal music and crafted musicianship. All of them are amazing. I'm highlighting Eric Myashiro who blows a trumpet 🎺 like nobody else (with the exception of Maynard that is).

It’s amazing how Al Grey elevated the whole band’s mood while showing em (and us) how it’s done. Buddy was one with every soloist’s mind, but Al really put him in the zone. I’m sure they were both thinking of Papa Jo...

Yes it was. The great thing about jazz is that those motifs happen in the moment. You can’t force them. Also did you catch the rhapsody in blue lick Al Grey inserted in the solo and the bands reaction? This is why I love jazz so much. You bring to the gig your own story. You study, you listen, and you speak into the moment that which makes the whole larger.
