  • Just bloody excellent!

  • so great, has it anything to do with what we hear today, britney spears, or whatsoever shit!!

    that's what I call live music, alive and damn good.

  • @Weezia08 One of the regrets of my life? Your uncle accepted my invitation to dinner while he was on tour in Paris - that evening I caught the flu! He left card at the hotel with an invitation (still have the card) - should I ever be in the USA. Just could not catch him during my visits to the USA. But so very happy to communicate with you his family. He gave me so much pleasure during many yrars - the best ever playing with the mute. RIP Joe.

  • Wow!

  • We miss you eddie.........

    dennis, claudette & sidra

  • How Basie let his talents shine....great gift for us all....blessings

  • Holy crap, that bass player is going at it so hard.

  • That flute player is BOSS. Low register is where its at.

  • Some serious flute playing by Frank Wess!
