The Dizzy Gillespie United Nation Orchestra

[@nested_King]

This is one of the greatest concerts ever recorded, in any genre of music.

[@mhlorenzo]

Right!!!????

[@hisongpark]

Amen!

[@mauriciorosales3956]

That's right!

[@sommelierramon]

No doubt.

[@user-kn8un4ru8p]

I was at this concert in row 4. One of most exciting nights of my life. Dizzy lead from the front..........he was incredible. I came out the concert drunk from the music, with the knowledge that I would never witness anythng like this again. How right I have been. A night for the purists. God bless all the appeared that night and to you Henrique for posting this.

[@kesivan]

Amazing.! What was the venue? BTW this was the first album I ever bought.

[@user-kn8un4ru8p]

@@kesivan The Royal Festival Hall in London. In the 80's the JVC Jazz Festival was hosted there. I saw most of the greats. An amzing venue for listening to Jazz.

[@kesivan]

Ossie Huggins thanks for the info, was wondering if it was royal Albert or royal festival. But now that you clarified it’s all good. You very lucky to have seen this gig. I had the great honor of performing and being a student of Danilo Perez. All the best.

[@yurei8]

Do you remember the year? I took my daughter to hear the band. She was very young at the time. She was born in 1984. The thing about it, was that it was free! It was at our zoo. so we saw the animals, and then Dizzy! Maybe between '88 and '90.

Great comment, thanks for this.

Thanks a Lot.

Shouldn't the tune at 52:56 be Kush instead of Krush?

This is one of the most underrated videos on KZbin :)

[@caehaeperro]

Tuve la suerte de vivir este concierto en Santiago de Chile. Estuvo de invitado el mismísimo Wynton Marsalis. Cualquier palabra quedaría en la más total deuda si quisiera describir el derroche de virtuosismo que esta banda regaló. Gracias los músicos y a las personas que aprecian la buena música.

[@carlosjunior4502]

Today, I play the trumpet because of this Big jazz concert! 23 years ago, thanks Dizzy, Sandoval and Roditi forever...

[@alfredogomez-wn8ek]

The VIRTUOSITY on display by EACH musician on here is mindblowing! 2022 and this still 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mangalarobertwatling9168]

I saw a version of this group in Cleveland at the Zoo amphitheater of all places! Sunday afternoon. If you paid to get into the zoo the concert was free. What a great show. He had Sam Rivers on saxophone that day along with James Moody and Slide Hampton. Just a wonderful experience. We went early and sat in the front row during the sound check and tried to talk to Dizzy. He was very nice but wouldn't engage with us until he started playing.

[@mangalarobertwatling9168]

It also included Jon Faddis in place of Arturo Sandoval.

[@sensibleband]

I was there too. Amazing concert.

[@mangalarobertwatling9168]

I'm thinking he had Monty Alexander on piano too. Funny how the memories filter back after all this time.

[@artherladett442]

SAM RIVERS!

[@MrSlfortney]

So bummed it was taken off streaming service (after I lost my CD). 😮 Glad to find this here. I have listened to this from start to finish more times than I can count. Best concert ever recorded.

[@marcossosa9087]

este concierto si está a otro nivel, cada uno de los músicos en ese concierto es casi una deidad en su genero o su instrumento, algo simplemente maravilloso e histórico, algo realmente sublime e irrepetible.

[@kmiggs]

Still one of my favorite concerts.

From time to time, I return to this pure gem. No better live thing hangs around anywhere. If you ever need to use the expression "Dream Team", go no further than this.

[@emanuelg9023]

19:52 is the intro to the Arturo Sandoval´s album "Dear Diz".

[@jpriosc]

La alegría de Dizzy la contagia a los otros músicos, que jóvenes estan, Paquito, Danilo, Arturo, etc, maravilloso.

Never tired watching this amazing performance of this legendary band. How extraordinary each musician is listening and make it all together such a memorable concert. Thanks to Dizzy to put this together...this is top of the line.
