Lou Donaldson - Bye Bye Blackbird

[@martinlehfeldt6916]

That piano player got me. Pure jazz!

[@zajj79]

Beautiful. Lou is brilliant, as is Horace. Two real originals.

[@cybergrunge3086]

The most amazing version of this standard, absolutely!

[@JRM---516]

Lou is incredible.

[@vova47]

Strange, one doesn´t hear this kind of music on any major jazz festivals anymore

[@PepperWilliams_songcovers]

When 'anyone' gets on a top ten list, that alone shows that they are excellent. The respect is certainly there for Phil Woods because he made the top 10.

[@amazmace]

I have all Mr. Donaldson's cd's. What a great performer. Thanks for posting this. I just love to see my idols performance live!

[@mdhbigdog]

The camera operator did an excellent job filming the musicians. I especially enjoyed watching Horace Parlan's piano playing. Excellent video and great music.

[@exjazzbassbaz]

[@exjazzbassbaz]

[@denisouellet8689]

Yeah not heard much anymore, but so beautiful. I just love Horace Parlan as usual. Reminds me when he played with Dexter Gordon Thanks Pascal for this wonderful track. Denis

[@jamie9890]

man, the things parlan can do, even with his right hand being partially crippled he can make up for it amazingly with his left hand

[@aleman8890]

oh... wonderful...

[@giovannisugonatoli]

maximum respect for the amazing Parlan

[@jazz1bro]

Very humerous as a person. "no fusion or confusion"

[@ddjjuull]

thanks a lot for this video, if you could send some more from the same concert it would be great.

[@RonLevyLevtron]

G-d Bless Horace..........the man had so much heart & soul!

[@54spiritedwill54]

wonderful vid

[@aSkepticalman]

Just superb, all i can say ...

[@RAMLIA1]

❤️❤️❤️

[@jazz1bro]

When I was on the road with him. Whikle warming up ,he starts playing Coltrane types of vocab. licks along with some music that was being played while we were sitting up. I told him, you should have played tenor. He said,"nope".

[@marcovanbussel7407]

Can We talk about this Experience? I'm working on my degree on the music of Lou donaldson

[@amazmace]

You got me there. Maybe a tie.

[@ddactyl]

Wow, like tribute to 'Trane @ 1 min

[@PepperWilliams_songcovers]

My top five favorite Alto Sax players: 1. Cannonball Adderley, 2. Sonny Stitt, 3. Jackie McLean 4. Vincent Herring 5. Lou Donaldson

[@groupieoftheyear]

yeah man!! this is miles's arrangement

[@Jazzhog]

@pvelectric AMEN Brother... AMEN

[@danmcbmusic]

that bass is swinging!

[@PepperWilliams_songcovers]

I love Phil Woods. I've even played with him once. he's just not on my top 5 list. If I had a top 10 list, it would continue as: 6. Charlie Parker 7. Kenny Garrett, 8. Phil Woods 8. Richie Cole and 10. Sonny Fortune and John Handy (Tied)

[@NicolaTariello]

1:10 - 1:18 Alexander Borodin - Prince Igor :)

[@paolomannelli]

Ho cliccato " Mi piace" senza aver ascoltato il brano. Quelli che dicono tanto parlano poco !!!

[@renedehilster5735]

That's not John Riley on drums, this is the french drummer Phillipe Soirat

[@PSavelon]

thanks, correction made.

[@amazmace]

...just my opinion... not since Charlie Parker has there ever been a better alto saxophonist. Such ease and feeling. He makes it look easy, but it's very complex.

[@giovannisugonatoli]

He IS John Riley

[@vova47]

How about Cannonball ?

[@pvelectric]

@japphan i was being literate. i prefer gallons of the cheapest wine i can find, then at high enough volume everything sounds great. mescaline is superior to booze (better drunk, no hangover, but that's why the governments would never allow the current income streams to be offended), but it's illegal. any drug which might promote peace over war and violence no government will ever support. this Hermann Hesse guy talk about these subjects? Charles Bukowski does.

[@zajj79]

It IS Horace Parlan. Who said it was Silver?

[@vova47]

Not even Sonny Stitt ?....

[@medicicard]

What is wrong with Phil Woods? I think he could replace someone in your top 5?

[@Kontrastrik]

Why play it different?

[@pvelectric]

top 10 alto sax jazz musicians: 1)Adderley 2)Stitt 3)Konitz 4)McLean 5)Woods 6)Donaldson 7)Gryce 8)Desmond 9)Moody 10)Shank (crud i hate not including Pepper somewhere, how about 5.5?) _________ Charlie Parker is far too superior to any of these to include in a vulgar "list." Like trying to compare a fine wine to an health enhancing herbal tea, just categorically different bread of life food stuffs. Praise the Lord for us having them all!

[@leemorgan5789]

thanks you for the list to listen to ;)

[@leemorgan5789]

don't forget ornette coleman though!

[@esc94]

Gary bartz, Ornette Coleman!

[@japphan]

@pvelectric The wine is better, as long as it is a fine Chablis. Chablis is way better than Adderley, but for myself, I prefer German writer Hermann Hesse.

[@robertrosenberg6900]

Lou and Horace play with heart, soul, and two lifetimes of accrued skill. exquisite and swinging.

[@retrorex]

That doesn't look or sound like Horace Silver! I say it's Horace Parlan.

[@medicicard]

I think just out of respect you need to replace Vincent Herring with Phil Woods. Vincent Herring has not played enough years. Vincent is good but doesn't come close to the many great years of Phil Woods performances.
