Well, that is too kind, Jerry, and also very un-deserved (for me)! We all play different things, and you have done tons of covers of tunes I would not do service to 
Just remembering the notes you shared on “A Taste of Honey” (a while back now 
); I could never play that as well as you!!

Thank you for the kind words, Joerg. Playing with a backing track and playing live in front of an audience are two different things. Therein lies the talent.

I was about to post “Ok I’m sorry but that is WAY too much of a polyrhythmic wankfest” and then realized I had the video playing in two windows about 3/4 a second off 
This is cool.

Senri Kawaguchi is awesome. She is also a force of nature in the Nankai Trio (jazz fusion). She could have been a great alternative to becoming the drummer for the Rush revival…

Outrageous spontaneous blues jam. Phil Driscoll (on vocals and trumpet) mashed lyrics from several blues classics and made up new ones on the fly. The artists in the band improvised on the spot and a new tune was born.

Two masterclass examples of pure jazz.
Interpretation, innovation and improvisation, expressed by active listening, inspired responses and instrumental mastery.
That’s how jazz was born and why it goes strong to this day.

Bach meets jazz. And Bach again. Sublime piano and bass mastery on display.

Superb. I was too young to see him live with Ray Brown and Herb Ellis in the ‘50s, but I did get to a few of his shows later on. The final time I saw him live was after a stroke left his left hand pretty much useless. And he still swung the lights out. O.P. was brilliant, and what a legacy he left behind. It’s been almost 20 years since he passed, but his music is as fresh and genuine today as it was 70 years ago.
