[@ChrisDocStewart]

Wow! Thanks for sharing all this magnificent jazz. I just want to clarify a few things as a Cannonball Adderley historian. Cannonball was playing at the York Club in Los Angeles for a three week stent from 29-10-1971 through 13-11-1971. I think the recording is actually from October 27, 1972 during the "Newport Jazz Festival in Europe" tour. This concert was in Rotterdam as you correctly state. I have all the audio recordings and an additional video of the band playing Straight No Chaser from the original NPS broadcast. When I first got these recordings I was told the date was October 18, 1972, but Cannonball was in Warsaw Poland and I have all the recordings from that concert and none of these match. Here is the list of all the tunes the Quintet played at the Rotterdam performance(s). It isn't clear if they are two sets from a single concert or two different concerts. The stage is set up identically on the Straight No Chaser video as in your videos, suggesting the same concert with an intermission: 1. The Black Messiah (15:35) 2. Hummin' (11:44) 3. Walk Tall/The Scene (5:14) Intermission? 4. The Brakes (12:21) 5. Straight, No Chaser (4:13) 6. The Blooz/Oh Babe (6:58) No matter what the facts are, I really appreciate seeing these and all the other material. Thanks again. Doc Stewart

I wish ol' Pete (my dear Father) were still alive for many reasons. But I know he would've seriously dug this- he'd have thought he'd hit the motherlode with the availability of KZbin videos such as this !! He saw many jazz greats in his day at the old Red Hill Inn- Pennsauken, NJ. Many years later, (late 80s ?) we went to see Dave Brubeck at Glassboro State College (Glassboro, NJ). He'd learned about the show earlier that day, got home & asked me if I was interested. Sure... (I was into "progressive" rock- King Crimson, Yes, EL&P, Genesis. I always enjoyed rock with some jazz leanings & versa/vice-a. Musicianship & songwriting abilities above all else; so I am surely game for this....) we get there only to discover that it is a fundraising event. Tuxes & gowns permeate the place. Not good for us- he's a propane truck driver & serviceman. Still in his work duds, me in jeans & my Bernie Parent hockey jersey, right ? They had a heart. Dispite it being sold out & our not being dressed ? There were 2 cancelled tickets awaiting new customers like us. Thank you, God ! Because it was a night neither one of us would ever forget.... Ol' Mr. Brubeck had HIS SON performing on both upright & electric basses that night. By the second song, my Pops is requesting Take Five & Blue Rondo à la Turk, as we're only in, like, the 6th or 7th row. Not loudly, mind you. But subtle ,"5 !!"s !! & "Turk !!"s after applauses wound down. Blue Rondo à la Turk was covered by The Nice. (another "prog" band lead by Keith Emerson, albeit in 4/4 time versus the original 5/4 by the Brubeck Quartet). Again we were rewarded as they'd played them both before the night was over. On the way home, I remember Dad saying more than once, "the only thing that could have made this night better would've been Paul Desmond." That night was one of those things that were great because you knew how great the night actually was, as we were doing it & that we would both have that endearing memory for the remainder of our days on Earth. If one is able to revisit life's experiences after having expired, in Heaven; this night is truly a given- to be able to do it again. And we'd actually thought at one point that we'd might have driven, one way, 45 minutes for nothing, once we'd seen all those tuxedos & gowns filing into the building. Good, no- GREAT THING- we pressed on like we did !! Love you, Dad !! If some of what I said earlier is true, (about revisiting life's treasured moments in the afterlife...) then surely ol' Pete is at a Count or Duke show at the Red Hill Inn- right about now....😇

[@craigfazekas3923]

@@Gurt_Bearded_Hobo I've read (do not pretend to know about this at all, just bein' honest) that essentially, the C model defers to the B model primarily due to the current output/input. As in, the B model was for North American 110 voltage & the C model is for Euro voltage. But if you are able to identify differences by sight, this assertion of mine must not be true. Can you enlighten me somewhat ? I mean in layman's terms, don't knock yourself out. But, are there key things you focus on in identifying a C from a B model Hammond ? I just love Lawrence Hammond's creation altogether. One of the best sounds ever when coupled with a Leslie. And to think: Mr. Hammond knew nothing of music itself. He was a manufacturer of clocks, primarily. When that market saw saturation, he saw possibilities in what turned out to be the tone wheel. Consulting with engineers with musical backrounds- he found that he was correct. Amazing.

[@zanohoriamazo1]

The focus, stretching out on funkish grooves like on the Jimmy Smith & Adderly sets, is reflective of the time. It was like a culmination of many elements & issues over that period, with jazz & popular music alike. Amazing how only a few are left: Drummers Roy McCurdy, & legendary nonagenarian Roy Haynes, masterful guitarist, Kenny Burrell. No one left from this version of the Brubeck band. That said, Alan Dawson sounded amazing! A true combo of technique mixed with fresh ideas & creativity, while indulging tradition as well. Just wasn't sure, besides Cat Anderson, who the rest of the personel in Mingus' band are. Thought maybe Don Pullen on piano? Not sure of the 2nd trumpet & the bari player. Drummer was also firery, with a lot of tom tom rolls that reminded me of Alphonse Mouzon, but not sure. Overall this footage is an extraordinary documentation & glimpse of legendary jazz artists during that early 70's period. I remember in '75, when I was just getting into the music in high school years, watching on an awards show, presenter Stevie Wonder requested a moment of silence for the passing of Cannonball Adderly. Moments like that, where a popular artist & respected musician, give mention to a jazz legend, help to show a standard of high regard for the music, to a wider audience, even if just for a moment. The era we're in today is a time where a vocal innovator like Al Jarraeu, who also made his mark in the pop world, can be left off of a Grammy memoriam list of recent deceased music artists. Anyway, all that said, this video is quite a gem. Precious!
