[@cpcattin]

Doc is still blowing strong at 94 years old !

[@derrick970216]

Listened to this while we were taking off from Budapest in sunset time after long business trip... That would be an unforgettable experience in my life.

Unlimited power at its peak!

Doc is incredible! Love every time I hear him.

I heard a clip of Doc playing this on a clip of the Jack Jones show and it was superb however this time he absolutely nailed it. Doc was incredible under pressure. I’ve always felt the best way to handle pressure is be so solid that your ability carries you through the nerves. Doc took big chances and always pulled it off.

Doc did a great job on this standard but - - listen to Bunny Berigan’s rendition - it will blow your mind.

First time hearing Doc sing. Very cool. nice high Ab!

[@msmith53]

Maynard’s version is also powerful! Which is BEST is NOT a worthy discussion! All are incredible!!!

[@msr1116]

Wasn't that version when Bill Chase was with him ?

Tequila sunrise Ludwig Vistalite drum kit FTW.

[@dimension2788]

❤Too bad he didn't sing more during his time. He could have been the next Louis!

[@msr1116]

I never even knew Doc could sing. Same goes for the drummer in Bread.

[@richardwalker9826]

doc is one of the greats but i will always be in love with Al Hirt's version from the early 60's

[@fatherthomasjloya5297]

I agree wholeheartedly. Al Hirt's performance of this song was absolutely inspiring

[@richardconnolly1232]

Twilight Zone

[@farmertice7064]

I love the trumpet & the singing, but I CAN'T STAND THE ARRANGEMENT!!! I heard Doc play the trumpet fanfare at Los Alamitos when I was in the Quarter Horse business & was racing one of my horses. He blew the high note!!! {probably because it was cold that night & he didn't have a chance to warm up}.
