Dizzy Gillespie, Gerge Benson, Ed Cherry.

[@Leswike]

That's my man Ed Cherry he's cooking. I never expect that from him coz most of his playing he is chilled but here he is doing something else.

[@LuisMarioOchoa-Artist]

Yes indeed, he's a very mellow player, but he was BURNING here and in front of Benson!

[@armandopace8559]

Dizzy was the man. He was a complete leader .

[@pathwayjazz1043]

What a moment, perfect in time, tasty playing throughout 13 minutes, Smooth and energetic

You should of got a million hits on this great post 8-)

[@petercallaway3376]

Well Dizzy G and Clarke Terry are both trumpeters and they are the scat kings when it comes to vocalise,, dexterity, and speed. Ed Cherry definitely impressed George Benson and they were both magnificent! The drummer and bassist were stupendous keeping that 300 BPM + tempo for 13:15 AMAZING! Hirt and Henderson displayed their virtuosity and aplomb. A 5 star live performance!

[@adolphlopez1462]

Damnit. That Dizzy Gillespie is great as by the fact that he really knows how to come out with a newly different style. And especially with the help with George Benson, and as both together, they both can make the both mixture sound of a wildly savage uncivilized mixture of a newly stylish especially jazzy beebob funky jazz upbeats, that they've both make it great together in both different of a mixture of a characteristic sounds on their own newly beebob jazzy style as of whatever newly style they' will, and can come out. And also in a mixture of a bluesy beat style.

[@scottcameron4890]

HOLY MACAROLY!!!!!

[@grahamlyons8522]

Who says Bebop can't be fun? When was this video made? Last line of the credits; 1988

[@jazzhopper1]

It is a rare treat. Slight shame the bearded trumpeter cut in on George and then took a few too many choruses.I have to give my mate Ed his due credit though- he was on the front foot! JC Stylles

[@paulgibby6932]

no way. that was Al Hirt. He just stepped up and GB let him go. He did great -- flight of bumblebee quote and everything else, including a nice pat on GB's shoulder acknowledging his greatness (IMHO)

[@joshuabillingsley5035]

@@paulgibby6932 idk, I agree with JC. Have you seen the other video of this performance on A Night In Tunisia? Al Hirt steps on Benson's solo break while laying eggs all over the changes. Imo on this concert Al is extremely uncomfortable and out of his element. I think the Bumblebee reference was less of a quote and more just him falling back on something he had under his fingers. Al Hirt was the trumpeter that originally inspired me to play after hearing him do the green hornet theme. But after watching and listening to the two videos of this concert it's impossible to ignore he's lost and uncomfortable with bebop. Watch it again with that perspective & I bet you'll see it...

[@EugeneCambos]

three times cool!

[@TheTranslator100]

This is why strait-up Jazz players like George Benson and Ed Cherry will always be more respected than Metal guys who rely on tons of gain to do thier best stuff.

[@Laurenzatto54]

Georges Benson is the greatest guitarist since Django, Charlie Christian and Wes Montgomery

[@flyinghorse13]

+SELMER1947 You can not leave out John McLaughlin

[@Laurenzatto54]

I can leave out who I want and I don't like Mc Laughlin who is more virtuoso than musician...

[@saxmanpro996]

Is that steve jordan on drums?

[@fvbl1000]

где можно просмотреть полностью это выступление?

[@cjgreen4331]

didnt know dizzy gillespie was good at scatting

[@fvbl1000]

я и скетчем так же могу пролабать, а им на баяне не смочь сыграть-они привыкли на струнных и духовых пиздить, а на баяне не могут хотя бы гамму фа-мажор сыграть.

[@fvbl1000]

ну так,то и я могу .а пусть они сыграют на баяне это . Слабо?

[@DDrums-Uroki-Po-Skype]

Баян тоже ударный инструмент, особенно на свадьбе

[@jeansibelius8903]

Benson totally beats Dizzy at scatting.

[@MarkTarmannPianoCheck_it_out]

ach . listen again. "beats?" they both burning, both incredible. both tasty. learn from both. not a bad note from either. beats? pfff. every riff of diz is right in the pocket. that means: rhythmically flawless. look at benson. he taking notes. taking a lesson. stealing diz's shit.

[@littleboyenderman4699]

Yeah bro. You’re incorrect. Check it out

[@fvbl1000]

фу позор бенсону гиллеспи его переиграл!
