Wild Man Blues - Wynton Marsalis.2000

Wild Man Blues Marsalis Wynton 2000
One of the tunes which has intrigued and interested me all my jazz appreciation life is the Wild Man Blues. As a kid I even had the 1927 recording of Louis Armstrong's Hot Seven on a 78.
In the seventies I got an LP with this tune being played in 1959 by Henri Red Allen. My favourite film clip is with Allen, Hawkins, Dickenson, Pee Wee Russell and Rex Stewart, and yes.... somewhere that is on dailymotion as well. Search for Red Allen.
Since then I have played the tune many a time myself and probably even recorded it.
And now, some six years after this was filmed in 2000 I see Wynton Maralis' approach to it. Here is a genius at work. It is not just the technique, which is stuning, but it is his timing, his jazzfeel.
All I can say; Thank you Wynton for being able to give us this.
Another surprise to me was to see clarinet giant Bob Wilber appearing as a guest and play a superb clarinet exchange chorus together with Wynton's clarinet man.

This is so good that I'm practically weeping. Ugh, just ridiculous.

Марсалис следующий после Майлза. Спасибо за память о великих

Great performance. Wynton's use of time is fantastic. And Bob Wilber shows he knows which clarinetist helped make this tune famous in the first place (Jhonny Dodds).

I'm talking about the elderly clarinetist by the way.

Where's the rest? You can't cut a tune in the middle!!

[@TheZackBriggs]

Who's that clarinetist??

[@iwasagasman]

In reply to YerbaCCS below. Yes you can cut a tune in the middle. I think I'd had enough by then. Give me the original Armstrong version any day
