Awesome recording, love seeing the pictures of the old barn.

All members of the band play at their peak. The drummer is on fire. Incredible performance!

I love how the announcer in 1959 said it’s a stereophonic broadcast when the first stereo radio broadcast was in 1961.

Thank you for posting, most likely Kelly, Cobb, Chambers, either Coltrane, or Adderley 👏🏽

Oh, to have been there! I was born too late.

Glad to see you back! One of the best resources on RU-vid for sure.

superb to hear this, sounding so fresh!! thank you

Fantastic recording. Starting at 11:44 Wynton appears to quote "Milestones", which fits this swinging rendition of "So What". Great energy from the whole band. Thanks!

Thanks so much.

Nice one. Good to see you again.. Jeff x

Love the Music as always. And the archival pictures. Too bad they're not better quality. Hefner, is somewhat akin to a certain dictator we know of. Sure, the dictotor implemented the Autobahn, but...

So…is this jazz? The announcer wasn’t clear about that.

That intro is great. What band is that?
