Wonderful performance! Charlie Byrd is my idol, brilliant playing, always understated, but filled with richly textured harmonies, played fluidly all the time. Thanks for the upload!
Agreed I find the resonance on the bottom string lovingly appealing. Charlie is as close to that guitar as he is to playing and the music he plays. Actually I find the guitar attractive.
They put the coo in cool. Thank you for this and gosh the Hotel Monteleone is such a great hotel. Fun times. I believe Jazz Fest is now in full swing and I hope everyone is having a wonderful time.f
Thank you for this!!...got half of this concert on a VHS tape recorded off the UK TV from the 1980's...been looking for the rest of it ever since....so grateful....got so many people to share this with :-)
I've been searching for this performance for years. Various little songs have appeared but never the whole performance. Thank you so much for uploading. Quality is amazing ;-)
I`m still looking for that really syncopated original piece written by Charlie. It`s in 6 en re and is a rondo. Unfortunately I cant remember the title. I learned it from a published sheet.Any help???? I used to play it and never tired of it but I couldn`t possibly remember it now. Looking for the dots ideally.
