Stéphane Grappelli and David Grisman - Sweet Georgia Brown (San Francisco 1982) [official HQ video] 

Often intimated but never duplicated. God bless Stefane Grappelli.

I was there. It was just an awesome performance. So long ago.

I saw Stefane Grappelli at Brisbane University in 1976. I was 14 at the time and wanted to be a rock guitarist. I was taken to this gig, I had no idea who Stephane Grappelli was, nor was I interested in some weird European jazz. That night changed everything for me; I found a teacher who taught jazz, I bought some Hot Club records. Supporting Stefane that night were 2 guitarists. One was John Etheridge (so fast), and to this day I don't know if the other was Diz Dizley or Ike Issacs. Both were incredible musicians. I am 55 now, still playing jazz, and still deeply in debt to Stefane and the wonderful musicians he surrounded himself with.

Fireworks!!! Fireworks,when these two get on that stage!!!! WOW!! Earl of ElBarrio,NYC,NY. 5/5/24

Steph’s face. Can’t handle it. He’s the boss.

Man, the band here. Darol Anger, Mike Marshall, and Rob Wasserman! Oh my.

I love how they battle over one mic. Nice to see mics use rather than plugins

These dudes are really jamming, nice chemistry.

Beautiful, just beautiful!

don't forget David the greatest mandolinist

Well .. I enjoyed that and it was obvious they did as well. Great stuff.

Armadillo World Headquarters over 40 years ago: Grisman & Grapelli … memorable as I’m now 76!

I love smiling and listening to music

Don't forget a young Mike Marshall...they are all good O0---:::

Heavenly!

JAST AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!! THANKS !

Simply great !!

I was looking for a video copy of the 9/20/1979 Berklee Center in Boston show where Mark O'Connor holds the guitar chair with a cutaway flattop but I came across this one with Martin Taylor. I only wish that Martin had been given a few choruses and that this was a longer version altogether. Jeez, what a line up!

LOL!!! About 1:00 somebody in the crowd yells WAHOOO!, and Grappelli looks a bit stunned that this young fiddler is stealing some of his thunder.

Absolutely wonderful!! Thanks for posting this.

WOW!

Stephane Grappelli was a god among men.

String and Ego and the production of Brilliance!

Dizz bravo, das war deine Welt!! auch als Organizator!!!!!!!

Proper musicians. Don't need electronic backing and no false "Divas". Music has been denegrated by false celebrity songsters/musicians. These guys are are amazing.

I was so fortunate to have seen Stephane Grappelli a couple of times in the 1970's in the intimate club setting of The Exit/In.here in Nashville.

fantastic

That's a great version by Grappelli and a very solid incarnation of the David Grisman Quintet consisting of some of the greatest musicians around like Mike Marshall, Darol Anger David Grisman and ROb Wasserman. I am not sure who the guitar player was in this clip...Thank you very much for sharing this

A young Darol Anger !

OH YEAH !

Swingin' like the clappers

Grappelli's name had 2 "p"s in it... but thanks so much for posting this!

Wow !*!* 😲🙇

Fun seeing Darol and Stephane jockeying for the mic.

Det var tider. Tak :)

Darol Anger!!!

The younger violinist reminds me of Norman Blake :)

If you want to see some more Grappelli footage we just uploaded this from 1982 too: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BiKCYG-vcwM.html

When the music stops, they all have to find a chair.......

Is the young guy of violin Darol Anger ?

Who is the other violin player?

Q: How can you tell if there's a mandolin player at your door? A: They can't find the key, the knocking speeds up, and they don't know when to come in.

damn
