Dizzy Gillespie feat. Charlie Parker - A Night In Tunisia

[@danlunham4478]

I was born in 1950, and my dad, a bass player, immersed me in the exuberant groove of this art, the art that shaped him. I will be forever grateful, I mean into eternity.

[@brothercaleb]

I’m jealous. I grew up in a cult where they called jazz “devils music” essentially. Just starting to catch up.

[@boroqcat]

I played piano in jazz band in high school and had a jazz teacher who saw the music in me before I saw it in myself. He would constantly point at me to solo and I had virtually no scales and barely any improv in me. 😂😂 We played this song for the spring concert and it still has a fond place in my heart. Thank you all for the trip down memory lane.

"A long time ago in the 40's Dizzy and Bird gave us this song. They called it "A Night In Tunisia" and the melody still lingers on!"- Chaka Khan

Ah yes it is indeed mysterious and haunting.

[@Gr3g3r9]

That was Manhattan transfer. C.K. covered it.

[@TimLIFE91]

Lars Andersson Manhattan Transfer covered this is 1985. Chaka sang her version of the song in 1981. Please explain to me how she covered a song she already recorded four years prior? Manhattan Transfer scatted to the music. It was Arif Mardin, Dizzy Gillespie himself and Chaka that made the magic happen for her version of this song. Chaka DID NOT cover Manhattan Transfer’s version.

[@Gr3g3r9]

@@TimLIFE91 Thanks for setting me straight. I was wrong. Love this tune. In most of it's guises. But even if it's a Dizzy-tune and these mentioned covers are awesome. To me it's Parker who really elevates it.

Iam tunisian i was travelling through spain in a taxi and the driver asked me where am i from in his broken english i said tunisia he said that he plays saxophone and the melody that made him play saxophone was this one he is originally latin american and then i put the translator and he started speaking spanish he told me that he visited tunisia because he wanted to feel what this guy felt that made him create this masterpiece, he had shiny eyes talking about it and it made me feel so happy that music can make people travel for real❤️🇹🇳 such a beauty

🎉🎉I actually went to Tunisia as a member of the U.S. Navy. The city was called Bizerte and was on the Mediterranean. It threw me for a loop as I expected the city to be lush, green, and tropical. It was Brown, tan, and sandy. Well of course it was because it's in the Sahara Desert! Still, it was an interesting place. Once I made it down to Djibouti, by the Red Sea, then I got the whole tropical Africa experience. Fabulous song with many versions. I have at least 5 Jazz albums with this song. I even heard a hip Hop band called Kids These Days put their spin on the song. It was pretty solid.

[@jackhammer111]

I remember the night the Gillespie died I roamed around town playing a tape of "The Paris All Stars Homage to Charlie Parker" in my car stopping at different haunts telling people "The Dizz died" and having drinks in his honor. if it's a challenge for your ears to keep up at the pace Gillespie and Parker play in their solos imagine singing words that match those notes & rhythms note-for-note. That's what John Hendrix, known for Lambert Hendricks and Ross, did and there is a recording of it on Manhatten Transfer's greatest work called "vocalese" under the title "another night in Tunisia". (Bobby McFerrin does the chest thumping Bassline thing in it but it is Hendrix singing the solo.)Hendrix wrote the lyrics for all the songs on the album did a recording including other classics like Sonny Rollin's "Airegin " where all the singers and Hendrix separately sang the solos at unbelievable speeds. Ever time I hear it I think it's not possible, yet I hear it. Hendrix seems like he always wished he'd been a horn player so he created a new art form instead. BTW, The Dizz has a solo on Clifford Brown's "sing joy spring"

Yep. As I write this (March 2017), Pittsburgh born Jazz Titan Frank Cunimondo is in the studio recording a new album. I got to watch his happy reunion with Monty Alexander in Pittsburgh not long ago at the Manchester Craftsman's Guild hall. I am lucky to know Frank and bassist Pat Crossley (among others) through my friendship with one of Frank's favorite proteges, Johnny Sundo. Both have performed live together at Johnny's house, while I was in attendance (and playing during the breaks) and, man, you would not believe what a genius Frank is, and I never use the word loosely. He absolutely mystifies pianists of my caliber with sheer beauty by exploring modality and atonality with the same effortless grace he plays behind a singer, like Patty Skala, or Felicia Sam-both women able to interpret a familiar standard through the lens of individuality. Pat Crossley backpedals his talent, but, I have watched him walking from the front entrance, already unzipping his upright bass from its cover, and, literally playing, while walking into the living room, case dodged as it slumps to the floor . . . wait for it . . . chording bass AND walking it, simultaneously. And for blending into an act and you're glad he came, I nominate Johnny Korpiel, veteran drummer. These guys don't get as much pop, but, wow . . . just wow, are they good. If I were just a little less self absorbed I would be So-o jealous of talent and ability like that. But, instead, I praise God that I get the chance to listen to fields of musical tulips and fens overflowing with potential realized. And that I get to rub elbows with these folks (and even tell a few stories about it).
