Come on Baba Quincy Black American Bandleader with - a mixed band - women musicians - no suits and ties for the band Italian Knits - traveling internationally - AND it was recorded in 1961!!!!? You. Are. The. G
Is that a young Clark Terry on Moanin'?? Can't recognize other musicians. Oh, a really young Phil Woods... holy cow....Melba Liston, an underrated all-round musicuan. What a great group! Fantastic video. This might be his Masters or Doc. Thesis!!
@@ebjazz93 NO, didn’t recognize him. Everyone is so GD young! But , boy is he great. Do you know the pianist? Wish they had a lineup. What a tight band !! Thanks for sharing.
Julius Watkins at his most powerful on this tour. Shortly after he would enter the most difficult period of his life, and emerge a new creative force and wonderful teacher.
Is this the band he took to Europe and went bust? Really sad , but Q decided to stay in France and study composing, arranging, etc. For 2 years. When he came home, he was ready to 'diversity ' and do a lot of writing. The master. Be well , Q. 💜
