Maynard Ferguson & Sarah Vaughn -- Take The "A" Train

[@gstockwell5315]

Look at all that talent! The likes of which we will never experience again.💔🙏

[@Lori-tc8ty]

Moments in time like this are well... timeless. Fabulous performance.

[@JazzyRatopor-vt5yp]

Thank you, what a treasure. All these different timbres, phrasing and attacks. A golden stage!

[@SoaringTrumpet]

Such a wild variety of trumpet players and styles. I love this. Also, Sarah Vaughn is the best!

[@boardmanfan]

All of those legends on one stage. Amazing!

[@Nelsomena]

Everyone did very well, but the All Hirt as always was fabulous.

[@hibob418]

If I remember right, this was from an HBO Special called, "Sas and Brass," and I saw it when it aired in around '84 or '85. So glad to see this clip again. I'd forgotten that Dizzy was on here too. Thanks for posting!

[@thecrippledrummer]

Actually, I think it was Cinemax. I taped it on vhs and still have it stored somewhere

[@benjamingruder4875]

What a joy to see these players all in one spot!

When giants walked the Earth.

[@ruthhellkamp926]

[@barryv9733]

Herbie Hancock I believe. Ron Carter on bass

[@charlesbarry971]

What a lineup. Great 😊👌👌😊 horns.

[@danfaircloth6525]

This is the brass players hall of fame

[@bradfowler6464]

Remember that one time Al Hirt cut all the other soloists on stage??? Mangione showing his ability to play changes, also super cool.

[@deserticus18]

this is really good stuff!!!

[@MrSwinginjoe]

Magnificent

[@SeikiYukimotoSoulbleed]

I miss Don Cherry !!

[@MrZonk2010]

...and Al and Diz and Maynard and Sarah

[@janquen]

Nice to see a grouping of horns like that where for once it doesn't turn into a "who-can-play-the-highest" competition. There was some nice tasteful jazz here, whereas this sort of gig usually just ends up just being a mess of screaming. Perhaps they moderated the machismo out of respect for Sarah?

[@1111pianoman]

certainly a gathering eagles by any standard...geez...i would have paid a dollar to see that group in person...

[@episnod]

1986. weird edit at 2:00. did cherry flip out? they tried to paste maynard in at the appropriate part of the form, but...!?

[@jzcmpsr2297]

WHAT EDIT? MAYNARD JUST PICKS IT UP ON THE BRIDGE!

[@waynebritton1436]

I’m biased but if I was anybody but Al Hirt I wouldn’t want to solo after him. Al had a level of talent that no one else up there had at that stage in their careers if ever.

[@gregora30]

Wow

[@BassmanII]

OK, so we got Herbie Hancock on piano, the legendary Ron Carter on bass, who is that on the drumkit?

[@jazman63]

Dizzys 70 th bday.

[@hipflores]

Maravilha!!!

[@ruthhellkamp926]

WHO WAS ON PIANO? Really good!

[@ronaldblaesing8264]

Looks like Herbie Hancock.

[@joksal9108]

Swinging solo from Maynard; Don Cherry avoids the outside shit and sounds good. Al Hirt is great behind Sarah; and of course Herbie’s comping is fantastic.

[@kgoerbig]

I'm thinking it was around 1988...
