[pennylaneqq]

Cool or what?

[chwjts]

Anyone catch the Lee Morgan quote at the end of the trumpeter's solo? Lovely nod of respect. Does anyone know who the trumpeter in this video is?

[Geepereet]

@chwjts Brian Lynch on trumpet, just added to the info ;-)

Adding to contra...

The famous composer of this tune, Blakey himself on drums.

[kajobike]

@deadend3001 I thought Bobby Timmons wrote it... wonderful though. I love Blakey!

[valvetrom]

@kajobike Sure did, did he write Spontaneous Combustion too?

[valvetrom]

@deadend3001 No was Bobby Timmons

[AndresEstrada1]

@deadend3001 This tune was written by Bobby Timmons.

[AndresEstrada1]

@deadend3001 Maybe I'm not so fast with my words, sorry=)

[mso872]

All the players have awesome expression in this video, great to see Blakey kicking butt at his age too

[ZackPomerleau]

[feelee15]

geoffrey keezer on piano! what a beast. this is the earliest video ive seen of him. hes 19 in this vid. WOW!

[Geepereet]

Thanks, I'll add it to the info. He made me think of Benny Green a bit (also the play) but knew it was wrong, the trumpet makes me think of Lew Soloff but also that ain't correct, thanks again ;-)

[valvetrom]

@Geepereet The trumpet leaves me cold, not a patch on Lee Morgan,or sweet Harry Edison, Art Farmer etc, He can play knows his stuff but is contrived.

[jaggerjazz]

@valvetrom: I think Brian Lynch still burns pretty hard in his solo on this one!



[valvetrom]

@jaggerjazz burning hard is different from hear warming.
