Duke Ellington - Montreal 1964 

Слушать оркестр Дюка Эллингтона это просто выше всяческих похвал. Состав все до единого величайшие мастера. Спасибо за возможность слушать их записи.

It's funny, and unfortunate, that so many people don't dig Duke. After all, Miles sure did, he knew he was indebted to the Jazz Immortals, and he knew that without them he would likely not exist. In 2019 and forward, I suggest that we try to get with, and stay with great jazz. Many of us have traveled just such a simple and similar path with food, cigarettes, wine, etc. At first, we likely did not like those things! Stay with Jazz!, it leads to free and enlightened thinking!

Magnificent musicking. Magnificent!

Sam Woodyard's drumming on Afro Bossa is unbelievable, from hands to sticks.

I saw Duke Ellington's orchestra play at a theatre in Leeds England in 1964. They played a two hour set starting at 8:00 PM. they then played a two hour encore that ended at Midnight.

Duke Ellington - Montreal 1964 - 50 years ago this year. And the Duke's music lives on!

An Ellington in top form, one of the best I have seen and heard. Hats off to the Sam Woodyard of this concert.

They really don't make music like this these days. Sure there's great musicians out there but they don't compare to the legends of years gone by. I love this!

incredible document, you can't put monetary value on this, it's a treasure - sounds quality is good too

Primo Duke with all his legends--Harry Carney, Sam Woodyard, Paul Gonzalves, Cat Anderson, etc.

Never saw Sam Woodward play before. Interesting style. Great and underrated drummer.

Thanks I love this! THE DUKE and band!!!

I'm from Montreal & i'm very proud of Mr. Ellington

Love from Bosnia. Duke is the Duke ;)

Absolute wonderfull...

Personal probable?: Cat Anderson, Cootie Williams, Rolf Ericson, Herbie Jones (tp) Lawrence Brown, Buster Cooper, Chuck Connors (tb) Jimmy Hamilton (cl,ts) Russell Procope (as,cl) Johnny Hodges (as) Paul Gonsalves (ts) Harry Carney (bar,cl,b-cl) Duke Ellington (p,talking) Major Holley (b) Sam Woodyard (d)

Vigor and the wild souls of us all evolve quickly in this grand portion of Ellingtonia.

Lawrence Brown at 57:40 does the sweet little tune so much justice. He had such a way with words on his trombone.

The Duke Himself with His Great Band, Paul Gonsalves, Johnny Hodges, Jimmy Hamilton!! Legends!!

Спасибо за видео❤ Высший класс🎉

Thank you CBC/Radio Canada for preserving this performance. Stellar!!!!!

Beautiful music and video! If you love the Duke attend the 24th International Duke Ellington Study Group Conference and meet his Granddaughter "The Sophisticated Lady" Mercedes Ellington and esteemed scholars and panelists from all over the world.

Extra. Le grand Duck Ellington avec son orchestre. Ce que j'admire en lui c'est quand il donne le tempo avec ses mains et ses pieds.

This is so good... there isn’t a word to correctly classify this video. It really is more than perfect. “Mood Indigo” was nailed here. What a band! Long live the Duke. Classic footage, really amazing.

I was only 15 then but holy cow; wish I saw it.

Thank you for sharing this excellent post.

Thanks a lot Emilio Perez !! What a swing. Duke was so amazing.

"Don't forget, we love you madley"

wow, this is goooooold, thanks for sharing this amazing concert. This is what i just call music,, at its best

Me produce una gran emoción ver a Paul Goncalves que junto a Willy Cock tuve a fines de los añosl 60 el honor de grabar el disco que se tituló 'Encuentro' y que significó para mí ser encuestado entre los mejores contrabajistas y también encuestado mi primer disco Trauma en la revista Down Beat de 1969

Wow!! Thank you so much for posting this marvellous video!

55:55 these cats were circular breathing, Duke Ellington was the best big band leader of all time , as the young people say, Duke was the shit!!!!

This was recorded 50 years ago today, 20th April 1964.

Thank you so much for this beautiful video. Great upload, and there's even list of songs to the ones i don't know of or haven't heard before. Thanks!!!! Duke is looking Gorgeous as ever, love you Duke❤.

This is amazing...thanks for posting this incredible band. Almost 50 years today and montreal has sure changed a lot.

Heavy on the cool. Great stuff thanks for sharing.

Good music.

...Duke Ellington é o Cara, tiverem muitas Feras mais ele é diferenciado pois como outras as suas Canções e Arranjos tornaram-se Eternas principalmente para executa ou está aprendendo como eu no Tromete, aonde encontrar essa nata, esses naipes de primeira grandeza em pleno 2017, são Eternos. Por isso não Existe músicas Velhas e sim Ruins. Ave Duke e outros Feras que partiram mas nos ajundam ate os dias que se chama Hoje...

This is nuts! Amazing playing.

What an amazing clarinetist.

Who on Earth is this incredible bass player?!! What a fantastic set from the entire band

Beautiful upload ! Thanks

Absolute greatness!!!

THANK YOU

There was a Casa Loma in Montreal during the 50-60s . Duke performed there along with Miles Davis. If I remember correctly, Duke also performed at The Esquire Show. Bar.

esos agudos del gato todavia hoy en dia son buscados por los trompetas un saludo desde el 23 de enero de caracas

The funniest thing in this video is how Hodges and Carney fan themselves with the sheet music during the glorious solo by Gonsalves - then one of the true stars of the Ellington unit- solo on "Happy Reunion". what is the meaning of that??

Fan dam tastic

hace 50 años lo hacen y todovia gustan en la musica popular latina y no son facil

The Best.

Si j'aurais su j'aurais venu voir ce show mais ma mère aurait pas voulu... j’avais 6 ans.

It is amazing that the Big Band s were popular from the late 30 to the late 40's and people still love the music. of laa of them I would put Miller second and the Duke first! Actually his nickname should have been KING ELLINGTON, not Duke.All the tribute bands are good, Non of them have the sound or intensity or Duke on the piano. Thank you youtube .

Drum solo at 41 minutes in❤

Duke,dziękuję,wspaniałe.

Casa Loma is in Toronto. This was in Toronto!

The announcer said it was "Afro Bossa". And, it was. And, not weird.

💜💜💜💜💜

Paul Gonsalves is killing it!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

💎💎💎💎💎

LE BOSS.

But this is not Montreal. Duke refers to Casa Loma which is in Toronto. There is a French language voice over which also refers to Casa Loma and this tells me it was a rebroadcast for French language CBC TV.

Johnny Hodges and Jimmy Hamilton reading off the same stand?

It is no longer possible to download this.Can you please upload? jazzrealities

☺️🍀🌷

Is the MC speaking Belgish or French?

Who's that playing bass?

Who's playing the drums?

Is Afro Bossa some sort of Ravel Bolero pastiche?

Personell?, please.

Creme de la creme

mature

Major Holley on bass?

Прикинь…? Они научили их играть?

The Rabbit looks bored to death. Sam can't tie his bow and the presenter is out of the Fast Show. Great. Mmmmm.

notice, no sheet music

Anyone know who the sax player is at 20:00?

Caravan - trumpet solo Cootie Williams

The musicians seem a bit bored - but God knows for which time they are doing this potpourri

Sper!!!

Big Mouth

Lol

Here from big mouth

Thanks a lot Emilio Perez !! What a swing. Duke was so amazing.
