Wonderful! Absolutely typical of those late night jam session at the Nice festical, during it’s great days.

@agamemnonpadar5706 3 года назад

Them were amazing. The atmosphere was so relaxed and you could meet most musicians in person, because them walked around in the audience to see concerts of their colleagues.

George Wein is much more known as an impresario than as a pianist. To my mind, this is a little unfortunate. He was an excellent musician himself.

had never seen him play. and wonderful!

I had no idea a:George could play so well; b:Joe Newman could play less (for him) not more; c: Eddie Daniels on sax was more than a myth

Could not recognize any melody here. Was this a video of "Take The A Train"?

@swingyoucats 7 месяцев назад

How about listening again, since Wein so clearly states the opening notes immediately. Or if this is mockery, prepare for the comment to be deleted.

@runningwild1055 7 месяцев назад

Yes , I did listen again and it was a struggle to pick out A Train. Was easier in earlier big band says though. No disrespect intended I just come from the big band era and did not get into Progressive Jazz. I hold George Wein in high regard.

I must admit it is a bit painful to see Bigard, whose playing in the 30s with Ellington is right in the centre of music history and who was such an important stylist that he really transformed the sound of the Ellington band, and who recorded some of the greatest chamber music in Jazz history with Jelly Roll (1929) and who still played marvellous in the 50s, in such terrible state. Nobody would believe how great and important he was based on his late recordings. According to John Defferary (who took lessons with Bigard, I believe in the 70s) he had less and less ambition to practice because of the noisy and tedious routines in the Armstrong Allstars and, allegedly, at one point Armstrong even knocked over Bigard's clarinet, destroying the unique early Selmer G mouthpiece, whereupon Bigard was even more frustrated. Do you, Michael, know more about this sad phenomenon? Have these stories been coroberated by anyone else?

@swingyoucats 2 года назад

Those sad stories are new to me, but I think even at half capacity, his tone remained when his energy was depleted. I saw him in New York City in 1972 -- his clarinet bell about four feet from my ear -- and although he didn't play anything "new," he sounded like himself. Nice had him on many sets, so I think he was tired . . .

@mrjimmienoone2130 Год назад

I think, Bigard lost some of his interest in playing. Like Thelonious Monk or Artie Shaw. Bigard at one point was so exhausted by "the road" that he planned to rest one whole year. Also, you should keep in mind how ill he was during his later years; if I remember that correctly, he had to use a wheelchair to get on stage for his last concert. Benny Goodman was addicted to the clarinet, so he played on with sometimes horrible back pains, but I doubt that Bigard was such a fanatic. And obviously, after many years with Ellington and Armstrong, he did not need the money, probably earning nice royalties for his compositions, too.

Not Barneys finest hour ?

@swingyoucats 3 года назад

He was 71. He didn't play as he had in 1940. Your comment says more about you than him.

@loumcconnell503 3 года назад

@@swingyoucats I’m 83 and an avid jazz fan ; there’s a time to leave your instrument in its case if you can’t keep up ! Just like boxers who hang on too long ; singers who hung on to long ( Frank was a classic example) Barney would have agreed . Unrepentant !

@swingyoucats 3 года назад

@@loumcconnell503 We must disagree.

@jwmc41 3 года назад

swingyoucats Not really, just a gentle expression of reality. No harm in that. And sad when the brilliant flow of his previous playing has gone.

What can you do, when you have horrible sleeping sound-ingen. who realize too late that piano-solo is over and the micros for a jazz legend like Barney Bigard should work in time. >P.A.=Pissed Amateurs
