Title: Great Jazz Video
Post by: ironbut on September 01, 2013, 09:03:21 AM
I'm a subscriber to "Jazz on the Tube" and I confess that I don't have or take the time to watch every video that shows up in my mail box every day, some of them that I do are nothing short of awesome.
This is one of them.
A little over an hour long and worth getting your jazz lovin' friends together for an evening of heaven.
Here's the TOC that Jazz on the Tube provided;

It all starts with Count Basie and a group of all-star friends

Thelonious Monk takes over at around 23:00

At 27:00 Jimmy Rushing comes in and the host lists the personnel from the Basie band.

At 33:00 Billie Holiday with an incredible all-start cast

At 42:00 Jimmy Giuffre trio

At 49:00 a two clarinet small band

At 52:00 the credits of all the musicians come up

At 54:00 the Ahmad Jamal trio

At 1:04:00 Ben Webster fronts "Chelsea Bridge" and "C Jam Blues"
