  • With a rhythm section like that I can solo aaaaaaaaaaall day and never get bored nor run out of ideas! Those bass lines are mmm mmm mmm.

  • Thanks a million for sharing this gem!

    Wish I could find this jazz fest bootleg too.

  • I always have to laugh at guys who talk about "chop problems" and "doubling problems". Doc played sax as well as trumpet (cornet, originally) and sounded great on both!

  • doc cheatham is fantastic! what a sound. can anyone please tell me the name of the piano player ? thanks in advance

  • Simply wonderful, thanks for posting

  • WYNTON COMO SIEMPRE FENOMENAL.

  • To play with Bell Upright like that is very TOUGH...Because the Trumpet condensation comes down the lead pipe and moves opposite...Doc Cheatham had the proper control of that...SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!

  • What a groove!!!!

  • man this is beautiful...

  • Doc was 89 or so when he did this, what a sound at 89, man, 99.99999% of all trumpet players never sound half that good (you do the math!)

  • Terrific!!!!!

  • Not to mention...beyond the beautiful notes...what a "sound" at 92...

  • SUPREME !!! SUPREMO !!! MAESTROS !!!

  • SUPREME !!!!

  • WOW!!! increible!! que onda que tiene Cheatham para tocar!!! por dios, eso si que es jazz tradicional

  • Artistry and great talent! Thank you guys! You are marvelous!xx

  • Amazing playing from a 89 year old, great sound.

  • Thanks SO MUCH for this video these are two of the greatest jazz trumpeters of all time right here

  • such a great trumpet

  • To all of Wynton's nay sayers: Skane gave the utmost respect to Doc while still sounding amazing. There was none of the arrogance that he is so often accused of.

  • Ilove Doc and Wynton. The way Wynton can play just about any style is wonderful. Doc was a true showman. Great video.

  • That is in response to boricuajazz's comment that Doc played with tremendous feeling, just like Louis Armstrong.

  • Don't compare, Doc was great !!!!!!!!!!!

  • What a special moment... Wonderful!

  • Awesome !!!!!!!! Thanks for this video !!!!!

  • I remember this. This is from that Kathleen Battle and Wynton special. This was a great performance!

  • I'd say Wynton got piped!

  • I'm sure Wynton would agree. But I don't think that's what this moment was about. Doc wasn't like that. He had a great spirit.

  • yeah, Wynton could of played much more complex licks, or more showy. but I love the fact that he kept it traditional and used a lot of traditional licks to blend with doc. but Doc is the king of this, you can't compare only contrast.

  • I don't think the objective is to see who outplays who. It's about you tellin your story....

  • Whatever guys, he still got piped!

  • shut the fuck up. There's no competition up there with these two guys. Go watch Nascar for that shit.

  • You're so cool you said fuck

    I met both of these guys. Do you play an instrument or just troll on the internet?

  • Great trumpet and singing of this guys!

  • Mamma mia!!

  • Isn't Wynton & Doc Great?

  • Doc's vocals were also great. If the date on this clip is accurate, he would have been 92 at the time. He was great to the very end, two years later. (Worst toupee in jazz history, though. I kinda suspect he wore it as a goof.)

    And it was a pleasure hearing Wynton playing along in style, not trying to overshadow or outdo the Old Man.

  • thanks for the visit.

  • Fantastisch. Wat een trompettist. Heerlijk om naar hem ten luisteren. Wie hem niet kent, mist een boel.Luister ook naar zijn beroemde nummer :"My little girl".

  • Thank you for the comment.

  • Oh man..this is amazing! Thanks for the post! Doc was increidble....many people don't know that he played many a great trumpet solos for Richie Ray and Bobby Cruz in the late 70s and 80s!

  • That is so true, but it was more 60' & 70' not 80's.

  • as a sax player listening to this i have never before been so moved by such nice trumpet playing until today.this is such a great song.

  • Mr. Doc Cheatham was the man! He played with so much heart his instrument, just like the great Louis Armstrong.

  • I can't agree more.

  • Fantastic fun.

    Great interplay and respect for each other.

    Thanks.

  • Amazing!

  • Thanks for the comment...

  • I don't remember, I'll check my video library. It's a great pleasure to hear the grandson of a legend like Mr. Doc Cheatham follow in his grandfathers footsteps. Keep up the good work, BRAVO!

  • MORE DOC CHEATHAM PLEASE!!!!!

  • The one and only Doc Cheatham...

    I first came in contact with this legends music from the early Richie Ray & Bobby Cruz recordings from the 60's. He also recorded latin music, he was a virtuoso. Try to check out those recordings, tunes like "Cabo E", "Pancho Cristal", "Mr. Trumpet Man" and others. Doc was great in those tunes.
