Dizzy & Stan - It Don't Mean A Thing

[@tommymorey]

No drummer in jazz history had such a right hand! Precision, touch, endurance and consistency . Shelly Manne, drummer's drummer... hard hard working musician's drummer, the standard by which to judge.

31 years ago - and fresh as new. This music is for eternity, and about reception center; you are d... right!

[@jeffreygreentranslator]

How come no one has a kind word for Arnie Lawrence's brilliant solo?

[@arisingmusic1]

It is magnificent! May his memory and legacies be for blessings always💛

[@barned]

[@moan01]

Mr Duvivier...workin' it....as a kid used to deliver groceries to he and his mother. Great guy and an incredible musician. R.I.P. sir.

[@TheOverlordDale]

That's why Getz is the master of the tenor saxophone. In my opinion, at least. He wasn't as influential or musically important as Hawk, Pres, or Trane, but he was the true master of the instrument, in all of its styles. He also did have a bit of influence in his ballad recordings, as well as his latin phase. He also never stopped evolving.

It's great to see video of George Duvivier...he was such an awesome bass player...I remember when he used to come to my dad's bar in New York...what a great man he was.

[@1bluejazzykat]

That is soooo funky. Stank in a good way!! lol This video is awesome. Thanks for posting

[@bteiv676]

I'll never forget meeting Dizzy at the Bar at Top of the Gate. The show was///are you ready, Dizzy and Miles down stairs of the Gate. My father knew Dizzy and called him over and he introduced my brother and I. My father didn't know Miles but called him over anyway because he knew Candy, the drummer. Where Diz was friendly and talkative Miles only said....hey what's happen'n....and walked away. During Miles' set he went sans horn reemerging with white stuff on his nose. Incredible show...

Thanks for reminding me to listen to this again. Arnie got such a big sound of his alto. I got to know him pretty well during the last years of his life in Israel. To the very end he was inspiring young musicians - and even old musicians like me.

[@arisingmusic1]

And still continues to inspire. A blessing!

[@IamGenoBlack]

Damn. Just damn. I have no other words. Maybe just one more. Genius! All around genius.

[@cirvine11]

One of the best vids on KZbin. Thank you so damn much for posting this. Very very cool.

[@adamrafferty]

@GulliverNice I studied 10 years with Dizzy's Pianist and have played a ton of jazz festivals with musicians like Alvin Queen, Lonnie Smith, and more. My ears say Lewis blew it.

[@GuildF40]

I love the special effects and dancing girls :o) Masters at work screw MTV

[@jeffreygreentranslator]

Don't slight the great Arnie Lawrence

[@arisingmusic1]

Fantastoc and beautiful.

[@palamadais]

wow, this is great. thank you for postiing....

[@hektoram]

So nice :) and cool to se stan getz, playing so fast :)

[@seanwilliams78]

...and no one likes watching Shelly Manne work? Rock solid! No breaks for the drummer, and he gets his solo at the end of the piece when he's already fatigued. He makes it look too easy! :)

[@terrryc]

This is one of the bands that will be playing at the Reception Center in Heaven..........you had better start behaving now,,,,,,;-))

[@bossanova64]

this are the coolest cats in the business along with,miles davis,john coltrane,lee morgan,clifford brown,art blakey,max roach,benny golson,cannonball,lionel hampton,elvin jones,mccoy tyner......

[@mahoose6]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHH

[@mmmgjl]

stan getz is a genius

[@jazzuffe]

@rockrhapsody123 That was the Getz thing, able to play anything in very fast tempo/rythm..

[@adamrafferty]

God bless him - but John Lewis totally turns the beat around.

[@bteiv676]

@terrryc good one

[@xc1816]

is that the turtle guy on piano?

[@bteiv676]

@sckvevrbdy he was an incredible guy...did gobs of studio work

[@54spiritedwill54]

Stan sounds great but he sounds particularly inspired by the rest of these very bad cats.
