Marvelous. What a beautiful soul, a beautiful teacher, and a beautiful horn. A moment in time in jazz history. It’s a shame Charlie Parker and Miles Davis, Clifford Brown, Fats Navarro, Monk, etc ALL the greats could not have created more art together, have more time….but I’m so very grateful for the art they left us ❤️🎺

He worked that band and they enjoyed it. Watch the musicians cheering on the Gillespie solos and their genuine smiles and cheers at the end of the songs.

There are so many musical artists that I wished I had the opportunity to see in concert. Gillespie is definitely one of them. Thank goodness I have their albums & there are these videos.

Forever grateful Dizzy "allowed" my buddy and I to hang with him backstage after a concert in Palm Beach, Fl. He was smoking "Manteca" (pot) and having a ball. We asked him 10,000 questions and he was generous, polite, funny and articulate. I have a book entitled "A Pictorial History of Jazz," we brough along and he was impressed and interested and wanted to see all the old pics of him w Bird, etc. He was telling us where each pic was taken, etc. He could have just shooed us away but no, we hung with him a good 35-40 minutes.

@ajn465 3 месяца назад

Hang around through the ballad… I can’t get started… Dizzy puts on an amazing display of harmonic virtuosity so casually, you may not notice that it happened. But wow. Just… Wow. The colors he could paint…

So much respect and awe from the trumpet players in Doc's band! Mr. lead trumpet himself, John Audino, was so into Dizzy that he miffed his first note at 1:13! And that's something John NEVER did.

@luciamiller1555 Год назад

I had the great good fortune of seeing dizzy Gillespie live at Hampshire College, and I was able to stand directly in front of him while he played watching those amazing cheeks bulging full of air as he played lol! We were so close I could’ve reached out and touched him. Amazing! One person asked him what his secret to long life was and he said he ate a box of donuts every day, smoked a cigar and drank rum lol! I don’t know if that’s true, but it was funny and amazing at the same time. Such a warm, caring and talented man, and amazing that this crowd got to hear such a musical genius on primetime television. I wish that were true today.❤

@robertgastreich9846 Год назад

First we had Louie Armstong, and now Dizzy Gillespie. Two of the greatest horn men in the business. Now this what music is all about. I love watching Dizzy with those cheeks going in and out. The best Jazz man of all time.

The 70s had to be an interesting time in music. You had the WWII generation still wanting to hear their Sinatra Jazz and then you had great foundational rock bands, foundational pop music. The artists who would reign at the top for the next 20 years were getting going during this time. Oh and country music was good too.

@kennethtaylor964 Год назад

And, a lot of the cats in that band were Diz’s contemporaries or near contemporaries. The drummer was active in the club scene in NYC, a number of the brass and reed players were in serious big bands. It was sort of old home week for a few of them.

The full show from 1/22/75 with Ann Margaret, the one from 9/2/74 with Carol Wayne filling in for Ed, Burt Mustin, Rodney Dangerfield, and Doris Day, full show where Ed is drunk from 4/8/77.

@amileoj9043 4 месяца назад

Wonderful fun to watch Diz conducting the Tonight Show band through Manteca with his booty & leg kicks just like it was his own outfit back in the late 40s. And then comes that heart-stopping solo on I Can't Get Started, just to remind you that the man could also embellish a ballad with the best of them. It's so strange to think that this just happened to pop up on American TV screens on some random night, with millions of folks tuning in, and instead of some second-rate actor plugging some third-rate movie, that night they got to hear one of the greatest musicians of the 20th century blow a fresh melody worthy of Mozart.

@tooter1able Год назад

His sound founded BE-Bop---"JAZZ" .Although I don't like the term be-bop because it is an attempt to put a classifiable term into a box-like storage area in order to sweep it aside in favor of a more contemporary sound (modal, pentatonic improvisation--attributable to "mechanics" rather than the "drivers") . ...I saw him live many times--even shared the stage with him and he was jazz improvisation embodied and incarnate; he never displayed an artistry founded in technique but more in melodic lyricism that stirred the emotions of all who heard him. Thank you Diz.
