Wow...just realized I saw Martin play with Stephane Grappelli in 1981 at a gig in Milwaukee, WI. I was a waiter at the club at the time and, sorry Martin, I remember Stephane more than anything else from that show. I've seen Frank (with Vinny) a few times in Honolulu...when ya coming back? It's about time!
I just got online looking for a nice version of this tune to play along with, and it looks like you just posted this a few hours ago. Perfect timing. I love the comping. And this studio gets such a wonderful sound for you every time, the Frank & Vinny album, the Hangin’ with Frank & Jimmy album, and this session too. They all sound a little different but also similar in all the best ways, they really capture the uniqueness of each session. Thanks for sharing this.
I was distracted by the suits... at first thought this must have been done in 1958 or so. Kidding. Fabulous playing of course from these two Jazz virtuosos. Saw Martin Tayor live once in Minneapolis, Minnesota in another lifetime. Indelible style of playing memory (fingerstyle then). Frank Vignola advised me via email several years ago on getting my wonderful Thorell guitar of his style. Thanks to both for the video...
Man, I could listen to this all day!as a full time player, I WISH this music could pay my bills, so I could put the shedding time in for these songs….. Instead of having to waste time learning the latest Miley Cyrus or “country” pop tunes ha
