Happy Hoofer - Toshiko Akiyoshi Jazz Orchestra featuring Lew Tabackin Live in Tokyo 1984

[@santiagovillalobos2352]

I'm so happy, I got to meet Hart Smith today. I had my trombone and he walked up to me asking how long I've played, he proceeded to tell me who he was. Really nice guy, he's a security lol.

I'm just glad that I lived long enough (had to rid myself of a lot of crap) to realize and receive the epiphany that this essential and swinging band delivers.

Walt is one of the unsung post Traneists..I love the guy...

[@freddylebanon]

Walt has taught me a lot..I'd love to meet the guy..a real purist

That solo by Hart is genius and that's what Toshiko and Brian look like they're thinking when Walt Get up. (I was there, as the rodie : )

Une époque où les femmes étaient absentes derrière les pupitres ! Bien que Toshiko fût leader de l'orchestre ..
