Jonathan Stout Trio - "Honeysuckle Rose" - 8/12/23

Here's a little bit of our trio's rehearsal session at my house on August 12, 2023, featuring Nate Ketner on clarinet and Riley Baker on bass.
I'm playing my 1932 Gibson L-5. This was recorded with an iphone and a Shure MV88 microphone.

Art of the highest and finest caliber! This will be the best video posted to KZbin today. Also, it's got a good beat and I can dance to it...I give it a 10.

Wow, thanks so much!

[@Trombonology]

Fabulous version -- the Reuss-inspired lines and reference to the '37 Coleman Hawkins recording w/Django are a real treat.

[@campusfive]

Reuss's solo with HJ on this tune live in Culver City is a tour-de-force, and transcribing it really helped me see the nearly infinite variations possible... now I just need to be that clever and not just repeat myself every time! Ha!

[@fabiomittino]

Wonderful!!

Man you guys are just fantastic! And you, Johnathan, are one of the best swing guitarists I've seen in modern times and I don't think that view will change for me for a LONG time!

[@campusfive]

Just proving why a clarinet is a far better sounding instrument to it's big brother the sax. You guys sound awesome

[@PiotrBarcz]

I like saxophones, a totally different sound, clarinets emphasize the fundamental while saxophones have a lot of overtones and have an overall fluffier sound.
