Lots of great memories from all the visits during the whole of 1970’s at Nick’s Jazz Joint in Laren. Plus every 2nd Thursday with live-recorded radio broadcasts. In the States tapes were run on the PBS national radio. Saw Monty and his side-men several times, and as always with superb performances. Miss those exiting live-jazz days folks, with the best of the best visiting American Jazz Artists playing there hearts out! So Dig/Enjoy & Cheers!

Wow! Thanks for posting. Remember discovering Monty when I was first learning jazz way back in the early 80s.

Great jazz people

Ted O‘Reilly used to broadcast these shows on his jazz radio show on CJRT in Toronto in the eighties.

That’s a slick arrangement of “Love for Sale”.

Caught Monty at Night Stage back in the day.

@Deweycheatumnhowe2 I love your jazz videos so much! But you used to have an Edith Piaf documentary on your channel that I can't find anymore. 😢 I'd been looking for that video for years and I'd really appreciate if you could reupload it. Thank you in advance!!

Who doesn't like this?! ....Morons! Joyous music!

[@enricocampari2012]

il titolo del brano al 13' e 31" è "The Flintstones"

[@mustafa-lt6-z06]

Around 16:30 there's an allusion to the Flintstones maybe?

[@eljans]

it is

[@alestev24]

I saw them live in 1987, and they played ist as an encore. It was also on their current album at the time

And who needs a drummer when Mr. Ellis is in town. . 🧡

Even though the order's a bit out of place on this listing relative to the recording, thanks for "Meet the Flintstones." I thought that had to be a joke. Alas . . .

[@СергейШатило-ъ8ш]

This is the track listing of another LP : " TRIPLE TREAT II"

[@СергейШатило-ъ8ш]

Sorry, I've mistaken with the number. Of course this is the listing of "TRIPLE TREAT (I)"

[@Pearlbitch]

@@СергейШатило-ъ8ш But fact is, this is an album listing. Although many a song of this live concert will feature on the album lists. 🙂

I studied and played with Herb.It was always a Treat..He was a fine person and he and Ray were ALEAYS in the pocket
