Bucky Pizzarelli: Body and Soul from NC Jazz Fest

[Lahed92801]

I like the violinist, great feel for Jazz...

BUCKY is SO amazing... One of the underrated greats right now. And his son John is astounding too.

A very young Bucky, I had heard he played violin before switching to guitar at age 11

That must be his grandfather on guitar

very fun

Actually, as you have probably already figured out, that is Bucky on the guitar, and young Jonathan on the violin. The video isn't well labeled, but that's OK, as it introduced me to Jonathan's playing. Great video!

He don´t know what play but he have a good swim, he´s very young, simplicity by a robot.

What about the man backing him up? One of the greatest jazz guitarist of our time. He's played with the "who's who" of jazz/pop.

Thanks all for your kind words. It was an honor to play with Bucky!  Better yet, he asked me to play with him in June in NJ...

Sorry, Jonathan, I called you Bucky by mistake!

I was priveleged to see Nigel Kennedy play jazz at a Manchester (UK) club when he 15. He had just played solo with the Halle, and was still in his penguin suit. Several members of the orchestra were with him: they looked quite out of place in a jazz club.He used his classic violin, which was the next best thing to a strad - the announcer said: "this young man's instrument is worth more than the building we're in!!"

His playing was awesome, as is yours. All the best in your career, Bucky.

Wonderful ! It always feels great to watch a new video of Jonathan. I hope I will be able to attend to at least one of his concerts in the future.
