Dee Dee Bridgewater - Song for my Father (Live)

[CaneCorsoJazz]

Go Dee Dee!

[TaraTownsend]

This is an absolute classic. This transcends the decades - anyone who was alive back in the 1960's knows and must love this.

[priscamolotsi]

I love Dee Dee because she is HERSELF!!! I have met her twice, she is a fantastic singer, a superb performer and a wonderful person who thinks nothing of coming of stage to say "Hey sister, how you doin'? I remember you from my last show!"...('in Japan,.that's where I live). When she asked for requests I yelled "Do a Blues!"! She went right into a Blues with her signature scat which I Love!! This is one super-Diva I will love forever!!!

[bluzmama55]

One of my favorite clips of Dee Dee. Along with being a jazz ,blues and bossa nova aficionado for many years, here Dee Dee does a fine job with Horace Silver's composition.

[awilliams9223]

I discovered Ms Dee Dee Bridgewater when I was about 15 years old. "Sweet Rain" was the first song I ever heard her sing. Dee Dee is a classic master-piece. She's right up there with Phylis Hyman, Angela Bofill, Randy Crawford, Sara Vaughn, to name a few. I absolutely love Dee Dee and her performance in this video is fantastic.

[XicoFlavio]

DD is the great jazz singer of the world.

She is always marvelous.

[taildragger53]

She is the finest female jazz singer in this present day...a true successor to Ella, Betty Carter and Sarah Vaughan. Clear as a bell!

[Machinist612]

This has been a great introduction to Mlle. Bridgewater and it will NOT be the last time that I listen to her

[diamanted1]

[Greatersend]

Lady got some big ass feet!! She looks nice though.

[molinmusic]

Keep coming back to this GIVE MORE THANKS AND LOVE! 

[sadiq53]

salsa is not jazz? Jazz an african american thing. Started in the brothels in New Orleans. Song of my Father is an old jazz classic (standard). Dee Dee has definetly mastered her craft.

She's wonderful.

[kluelass]

Thanks, boricuajazzz8 for this from your collection. I never heard of Diva Dee Dee Bridgewater. Her voice is magnificent, and the piece is also until the too frantic for me mid to end trills. Gonna stick with Horace for now.

[thegoodgeneral]

"Live At Yoshi's" is my favorite jazz CD of all time. Dee Dee's voice is so particular, this is awesome.

[connsax58]

[worldsender]

We bow our heads and we pray. Every day's Father's Day. Let's review. All that he means to you. Our Mother's love is real nice. But old Dad sacrificed. For us too. Let us give him his due. We're very proud to be. In his biography. We sing this song for him. And you.

[worldsender]

This little song for my father.

Does things that no other

Can do, as I sing it to you.

It has a rhythm and rhyme.

That will fasten his memory.

In time, as his beauty shines through.

For through my mind and soul.

My heart will always hold.

A special place for him.

It's true.

[Havranpirko777]

I didnt know this song has a lyrics... unfortunatelly I don't understand to her pronounciation... Please, can somebody write here the lyrics?Thanks a lot.

[hymnoftheorient]

I especially enjoy her 'nod' to Ms.Betty Carter in her intro-she's been great,and greatly underappreciated,for a long time!

[drmusa89]

I am finding myself viewing this video repeatedly every morning. It's truly a classical performance. Thanks so so much for posting it.

[boricuajazzz8]

Always welcome.

[drmusa89]

A really GREAT performance. I enjoyed it immensely!

[boricuajazzz8]

Thank you for your visit to my music channel.

[SoulTooSoul]

Ded Dee Bridgewater, over the years has sung songs by Horace Silver, Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, and others. Her love for the lions and lioness's of jazz are undeniable. She continues to grow as an artist. She now has begun to explore African music. She has also lent her voice and style to electronica/house music. Dee Dee is an eclectic artist.

[FunandJool]

wow..... she really gives me a wonderful experience. allready one of my favorite songs, DD beats Horace himself, with her blue notes and incredibly warm voice! many thanks for placing this.

[boricuajazzz8]

You are so right! Dee Dee is wonderful!

[Virginielie]

Beautiful performance ! Thank you !

[alboy1977]

thank you so much for posting - this is my favourite song of all time! she has got such a wonderful voice!

[boricuajazzz8]

She is the queen! And also very HOT!

[ittai66]

Who's that awsome pianist?

[boricuajazzz8]

I don't know the name of the pianist, but for this performance she brought in her own musicians.

[chalone2]

he sure has the horace sound down, no?

[gogoffinet]

His name is Thierry Eliez ! A wonderful french organist and pianist... Didier

[chalone2]

oh, thanks for the info! he is great..

[Hgclaw]

she is absolutely fantastic.

[boricuajazzz8]

Yes she is!

[kokonutz32]

dee dee's voice is a perfect fit for horace's music, no?wonderful stuff! thanks for sharing this with all of us..

[boricuajazzz8]

I wish she could have recorded with Horace.

[kokonutz32]

hey, good idea! they are both still with us..

[boricuajazzz8]

Is Horace still alive?

[btinsley1]

boricuajazzz8: She DID record with Horace Silver him on the Love and Peace CD. I believe Horace played on 3 of the selections...Horace's songs originally had no lyrics, but Dee Dee asked him to write some & she sang them on this CD...OUTSTANDING !

[boricuajazzz8]

Thanks for the information my friend.

[curumina1]

Koko...thanks so much for sharing this! I've heard this song before, but never such a pinnacle performance! DeeDee has got such an amazing voice!...her sound is beautiful and one of an "instrument" delivering a wonderful, beautiful rendition of such a timeless song! Great performance.... gracias, amiga!

[curumina1]

...on 2nd thought and review of same, perhaps it's best to just to watch in sheer amazement and respect...and say very little ....

[btinsley1]

the CD is fantastic, probably one of her best jazz-wise. I think Jimmy Smith played the B3 in the CD version..but there's still a soft place in my heart for the album "Just Family" from 1977, of which I still have an original copy...je vous aimerai pour toujours dee de dee car vous êtes le dee de phase quintessenciel de dee d'interprète de jazz... !

[boricuajazzz8]

Thanks for stopping by...

[yelnats21]

a great interpretation by DeeDee, and that organ player is cookin them eggs with the temp at 1000 !!

[boricuajazzz8]

Hell Ya!...

[Eurynome898]

I adore you Dee Dee!!!! You are fantastic!!! Te best singer in the world.. I love this song 2, and your interpretation :)))))))))))))))

[boricuajazzz8]

A fan of Dee Dee Bridgewater's voice since Roy Ayer's Lifeline, and her Just Family albums, I appreciate this posting, very nice indeed! Her tribute CD to Horace Silver is one of her best. Thanks

[boricuajazzz8]

She is one of my favorites... Thanks for the comment.
