  • It's interesting that Dizzy is old enough to be those guy's grandpa in this clip. Wonderful :)

  • yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • Um...what 'people' ever said that Dizzy was NOT an awesome trumpet player? :) That almost made me shit myself laughing... He will ALWAYS be one of the greatest trumpet players of all time. And anyone that knows jazz knows this...

  • wow what a sick lineup, too sad it didn't last longer.

  • Dizz had a muscle weakness that forced him to play the way he did. Of course it became a visual trademark over his lengthy career. It’s great that YouTube is now around to share yet another generation with his greatness both sonically and visually.

  • wow he plays the trumpet with the cheeks

  • You can't beat the man who created the song, it's classic and wonderful to see him play it/sing it. Stacey Kent does an adorable rendition, check her out. One of my favorite songs, flirty, spunky and just fun. Done here of course, with a lot more instrumental. Dizzie and his Orchestra live was incredible, saw them when I was a kid. Thanks for posting, so long ago and still going strong.

  • the only man allowed to puff his cheeks on trumpet :)

  • sounds like the guy that sings the Toy Story themes lol

  • the drummer is a na'vi....:D

    Only he's not blue.

  • @sajti83 that's Omar Hakim!

  • Those cheeks are crazy. ha. but there is so much amazing music here that this generation will never even get too see.

  • Amazing the effect that certain instruments have on our bodies when we commit to them. Facial Distortion in the Cheeks or the Razor Calluses on a Guitarists Finger tips.

  • @xcaluhbration I <3 my Razor Calluses... And we often suffer from our own self-inflicted Facial Distortion.

  • @TheDistortionist Yea man I fear switching to classical guitar for that reason.

  • i didnt know Bill Cosby played the trumpet lol

  • Dizzy gilesspie singing, this is great!

  • sanborn's solo was incredible

  • it was his opening lick that was really awesome

  • fuckin awesome video. i can get enough of his cheeks. wrinkles be gone!

  • Dizzys cheeks ae crazy

  • Thats cuz his f'n cheek muscles broke

  • Dizz puffs on both sides, Sanborn only puffs up on the right.

  • genial

  • some of sanborns best playing

  • i wish i had cheeks like dat.. lol

    nice vid.. dough..

  • what a bad mofo

  • More reverb.

  • the man frog

  • "This guy... sings pretty good"?... Wtf... :P

    You should hear what he was able to do in real vocal improvisation! A monster... also funny! :D

  • Man! This is amazing! Two legends! I love it!

  • when is the year?

  • Dizzy is so cool! I love his face when he plays trumpet <3

    David Sanborn is a beast!

  • Just read jools Hollands biog which lead me to seek this out. what a band, what a feel. I love Diz. OOP_BOP_SHA_BAM!

  • David Sanburn - superstar! Thanks for posting!

    Greetings from Holland.

  • what's the year?

  • NICE

  • wow, i didn't know he had such a great voice!

  • I've never seen a man with such... ballooney cheeks...

  • Yes, his neck would expand as well, he said his wife hated seeing that!

  • @MaelstromOfGoo I guess that's what happens when you play like that for your whole life, crazy isn't it!

  • @MaelstromOfGoo Thats because you're not supposed to puff your cheeks when you play, If you do that, than ^^ that will happen. Still a great trumpet tho:D

  • good...!

  • test test

  • Que grande sos Dizzy !!!!

  • David Sanborn is incredible in this video, what a classic!

  • Yeah, you would be playng you heart out if you were on stage with Maestro Diz!!

  • Do Dizzy sing a lot, because i didn't think, that he did anything than play the trumpet?

  • He sang, played piano and trumpet, and composed. He did it all!

  • i shall call him blowfish..

  • You should call him a master trompeter blowfish!

    But I'm not the kind that get offended over little jokes on some of my idols, he playing is indeed funny.

  • Se hincha como el buche de un palomo.

  • Omg... ÖÔ) Hes face get really big the he playing xD look really fun)

  • i love this guy..

  • everytime i hear or see dizzy it just makes me happy. for one he looks so silly when he plays and another thing is he was a fantastic muscian

  • people fail to see that Dizzy was in fact an awesome trumpet player,let alone a composer.thats coming from a sax player.

  • @bfl305 i will never say he is an awesome trumpet player. his tone is near crappy. sure he knows how to solo, but it doesnt sound good

  • @stutzand000 he's blown his chops by this age, you should check his early stuff. Same might be said for Sonny Rollins, Freddie Hubbard, Joe Lovano, etc.

  • @vanderbiltsax haha dude, listen to his stuck with bird. he has bad tone. i dont know if its what he wanted or what

  • @stutzand000 That's true, he's no Miles or Chuck Mangione as far as tone goes, but tone isn't everything.

  • improv dizzy is arguably the greatest trumpet player of all time only other one people say is better is miles davis but you have to take into consideration he's old in this video

  • Dizzy Gillespie y David Sanborn - Tin Tin Deo El trompetista de jazz estadounidense Dizzy Gillespie tocando la canción Tin Tin Deo (Gil Fuller / Chano Pozo) ...

  • wow he isn't that good at the trumpet... Good voice but his cheeks are like WOW!!! And david sanborn is the amazing sax of alltime!!

  • ya know....I am very tempted to say Dizzy is a better jazz singer than a trumpet player! Still its all great stuff! I love it!

  • LOL to whoever thumbs-downed sa8vsaxman. He wasnt bashing Dizzy, he was saying he's a great singer as well as trumpet player! lol, some people never leaned to read I guess...

  • his cheeks are like....bam!

    like a frog..or a blowfish

  • the neck even expands.

    thats what i noticed.

  • that can be right can it... I learned that i may NEVER play with full cheeks. I think Dizzy is the result of playing with cheeks filled with air >.>

  • He sounded fine to me a few years previous to this in his prime, cheeks puffed and all. Some can, some can't, it makes round breathing easier for most.

  • Ive just seen a comment, that Dizzy had cancer. That his cheeks are numb. So that explains it. But yea he plays great!

  • I mean can't**

  • This show was one of the best things on TV ever.I watched this show faithfully and have been wanting to buy it o dvd.Does anybody know where I can get it?

  • May I have the spelling of the name of song

  • oobie scoobie doobie

  • @199412277 Ooh, shoobie doobie

  • oh my god...I never heard him sing... he's got a to perfect jazz voice... it's great...

  • Que grande sos Dizzy !!!!

  • blowfish :P

    pretty damn good too!

  • did you know the reason his trumpet is so weird is because he accidently slamed it in a door one day

  • wow ur dumb lol

  • lol

  • my ma says he look like fred sanford

  • holy shit dizzie's cheeks are fucking crazy

  • can you give me the letter of that music? thanks!

  • daviddddd

  • hey does anyone manufacture dizzy trumpets? (45 degree angle ones)

  • King does and you can get one from Schilke too.

  • Dizzy's voice make me recall Great Louis Armstrong!!

  • pfff too many retards arround here...

    Dizzy was one of the best in the rold, also a great person and a great musician!! he really rules!!

    To be or not to bop guys.... (seem that many of u don't bop....)

  • Also, he never learned the proper breathing for trumpet. And just a correction, his trumpet first got like that in an accident. He decided to use it like that because he liked the sound.

  • I wouldnt think he would purposely toss his trumpet out the back of his bus but yeah O_o

  • hmm... i heard somewhere that a dancer fell on it...

  • A dancer fell on top of it while it was on a stand. Diz played it and liked it, so he had all of his trumpets made like that from then on.

  • yeah thats what I thought.... but leon was saying something about falling outta his bus? lol

  • The lower half of the trumpet player's head blows up to about ten times normal size. It looks really freakish. It would be embarrassing to play on stage like that.

  • 1. Dizzy had a form of cancer in his cheeks to the point where they are basically numb

    2. He is playing on a banana trumpet...his very signature trumpet. Supposivly he liked it more after it fell outta his tour bus then he played it and boom! Liked it O_o

  • dude, when you're as famous as dizzy, you could play a trumpet backwards, and no one would care

  • hey, dont put that shit on me!!!dont be so fag about it,so wat if i sed that?wat r u gonna do about it?!u bitch,yeh dats right im calling u a bitch,coz u do nothing but keep bitching, so get a life ,asshole!!

  • wats the matter with his trumpet???

  • dats not a trumpet its a saxophone!!!!orangeparade ur a fucking idiot!!!

  • this is a great clip... i love that it helps solidify the arguments against Sanborn. What a great player...he's right at home next to one of the arcitects of jazz. Absolutly beautiful.
