Joe Williams I miss him terribly. We sang Lush Life on the SS Norway.

[@ellengratrix1411]

Met the band at the Barbican in London Joe gave me a big hug

[@nycphillie]

There is only one rendition of this song. Joe owns this forever.

[@billsnyder5275]

[@Canyon2023]

[@beverlyharris9859]

[@rondesourdis1447]

And that's putting it mildly.

[@TheMadamfee1234]

My Soul in enriched my Big Joe, what a dude Pure Class!!! They just don't make them like that anymore and I don't have to say anything about the Count. These kids need to listen where it's at man. Youngsters listen up and learn from the Maestros.

[@alletakeokuk1046]

Thank you for your post and thank God for technology! This is golden. Eddy Vinson said “ I don’t know the rest of the words,” but he made up for it with that horn !!! Mr. Williams 💕💕 and Count Basie💕💕I LOVE THIS....

[@heloisahelenadimarzio673]

Joe Williams should never be forgotten. 🙃

[@kathrynmonahan68]

Don't worry Joe Williams and Count Basie and orchestra... You will never leave my heart...God bless all of you

[@KS-df7vf]

old but brand new to listen everyday. like it.

[@WorldBFree-lw6wo]

Thank you for sharing! Big Joe Williams always delivers the goods!

[@miraclebigevent142]

Joe Williams was one of the great singers of the 20th Century... or any century. I had the pleasure of seeing and hearing him live several times with and without Basie, and even in small groups. And check out Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson. When he "knows the words" he's also an excellent blues singer as well as a fine sax player.

[@billsnyder5275]

THE BEST!!! Thank you for this music!!!! "Everyday I Have the Blues" should be the USA national anthem. It was for me in the 60's. Seems like those times have returned. The Count and Joe will never die thanks to people and channels like you.

[@lindabaer6603]

Everyday I "gots" the Blues. I love Joe Williams!

[@Belrivers]

My father loved this song at the end of the work week; Friday nights 🌙.

Какой блюз! Шикарный ада суперрр, Каунт красавец эээ!

[@seniorlady5998]

My mother was a huge fan of Joe Williams and I was introduced to his music as a young girl. How wonderful to relive his glorious voice at this time in my life!

[@donaldfrierson743]

Doesn't get any better than this, This is music. Listen to that band-right on it pushing Joe Williams forward.

[@JohnMHill-oi6rb]

A tenor sax, played by Eric Dixon (a Canadian), was on that cut. The soloist on that was ERIC DIXON, a Canadian I played with in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The three of us played chase solos in Halifax during a "Busker's" convention. Eddie "Clean head" was nowhere to be seen! Please make that CORRECTION to the first half of the cut! John M. Hill

[@utetrahemicon]

I saw them in the late 60s in the front row and I wonder if Joe did the scat singing that I'll never forget.Three white boys were left speachless... I hope you're well and don't have the blues all day long.

[@charlesbarry6730]

One of the great blues singers. Great combination with the Count Basie Orchestra.

[@billboulware1]

Probably the best big band blues song and arrangement ever.

[@frenchconnection4522]

I think my grandmother knew Joe Williams and Count Basie's daughter lived on my street. This was music at its greatest!!!! We will never see our hear this again!

[@Jamestown-y9j]

@Johan Karson and she's still your girlfriend?

[@cjgaddy]

WOW, another Basie+Joe Williams EVERY DAY I HAVE THE BLUES! (1st tune here). This is Copenhagen 1972. Joe Williams said in 1981, “Ladies & gentlemen, Count Basie lifted me. He is truly in the image of God.”

[@lindaspears2564]

Simply the best EVER!

[@mikewinburn]

Never heard that version of "in the evening"... wow... fantastic! Hope I can find this performance recorded on optical disc or lossless file. ."I don't know the words..." priceless...but awesome

[@adriancalin8688]

Tout est dans la tête et l'oreille

[@DavidKing-xh2wo]

So Smoooooth. Wish I could have seen Joe in person. He was ahead of my time😢

[@P.Dowden-White]

Was blessed to have seen him perform in Central Park in the mid 1980s. Unforgettable!

[@jonshannon7096]

In the evening! Nothing short of greatness.

[@MidnightJazzer]

Nice footage, however I think we could have gotten the point, without sticking the leader tag through the hole video!

[@syncleticasaint9134]

[@PhrygianPhrog]

Stunning, I loved this so much. Perfect for healing your sorrows.

[@drummermikeclark]

Harold Jones !!!!!!!!

[@EkkehardReischle]

So great performance! Joe Williams is really in the prime of his mastership!!!In my eyes the best Jazz singer ever, got this special flexible/-there -is- more- to -it -timbre in his voice which is making you listening up and is addicting immediately!Rhythm/Intonation perfect! Nevertheless I feel he was a bit underrated, could be more recordings of him!! Maybe with time there will be released more treasures like this from the archives!!!! Such a shame he is gone as now nearly all the great Jazz Masters of that time!!!!!

[@charlesbarry6730]

Genuine blues performed by a great singer(Joe Williams).

[@charlesbarry971]

Joe Williams and Jimmy Rushing are the best voices that were employed by Count Basie.

[@lanebrain55]

he makes it seems so simple and easy , great voice !

[@snackcakeman]

Ever commercially released as a record?

[@TheMadamfee1234]

PURE CLASS!!!!

[@wynnsands4811]

😂yes!!##!#!#!!!!

[@stevesmith6685]

I never saw or heard this exact performance. I began seeing Count Basie live and Joe Williams around 1972 when George Wein began the Newport Jazz Festival - New York, probably at Carnegie Hall. Saw Basie, Joe and the continuing versions of the Basie Band ever since. Thanks so much for posting!

[@larry1824]

Best classical blues singer without guitar me. Perfect fiction superb timing could make Basie swing even better. A master

[@hdguy350]

Best thing about this video is watching Count’s expressions because he’s really digging Joe’s performance along with the rest of us.😊

[@joelhenderson4450]

That bass line on Come Back is addictive, and I've heard it somewhere before on another track I'm sure.
