Claude Gordon and his Band

[@tko8218]

If anyone plays trumpet, you may have heard of his trumpet practice methods books. I used those books some 30 years ago and just stumbled on to this. I was very surprised. Thanks for the upload!

[@kennethtalbott2233]

never heard one fine day played like that before.

[@kdm71291]

I had a Benge trumpet in high school (and for some years after, although I hardly played it anymore)....and I have heard a lot about the CG model.....never bothered to find any of his performances...until now!

[@johnwilder8517]

These are very fine players doing their thing at the time. jw

Is this gershwin?

[@kennethtalbott2233]

yep, an american in paris.

[@janedubourg4837]

If I played trumpet like Claude Gordon I would give it up. All that vibrato and straight eights is so annoying. Brown,Morgan,Hubbard,Baker, to name a few.These are the fellas to emulate.

You wish you had his chops.

[@TRUMPETSIZZLE]

Fortunately, YOU don't ever have to worry about playing as good as Claude!

[@johnandmarie7250]

My favorites too. So they should not have studied Clarke, Arban, Schlossberg, et al because those boring old dudes didn’t play jazz?

[@leos.2784]

Wow....one of the greatest artist all time...how dare you dude!

[@lbird2]

Yeah, I was disappointed too. He played the simplest of lines with zero variation from what was on the page.

[@wayneandrus240]

not too bad for White boys.
