What a lucky guy to have such talent and have it carry him to the end.

[edmonton67]

How I wish talent like this could once again permeate music. A class of his own!

[TaylorTheClarinetist]

he is so good!!!!

[waynedanberry]

This is so SWEET, to see the smile on BENNY,S face, and to have Teddy Wilson there on piano, to bad Hampton and Krupa weren't there. I think they show up later in '85?

@waynedanberry krupa unfortunately died in 1973. way too early...

[Peter1q2w3e]

I frickin love the lick at 247

[transtremm]

The way I see it, with his use of chromatic lead tones, it was Benny Goodman who invented bebop. Excellent video, thanks!

[benny0607]

Of course!

He was ill.

Sciatica,his hart etc...

Sometimes it affect his playing and sometimes no.

But his playing was and still is the best!

He simply was a genious.
