Gerry Mulligan- "Theme for Jobim" (cover)

Me playing a more recent tune from my baritone sax hero Gerry Mulligan which he dedicated to his friend and father of Brazilian Jazz, Antonio Carlos Jobim! The recording is off the Hal Leonard Jazz Play-Along series volume 42 (again)! It's not my BEST sound sound but it is a MAJOR improvement from my other 2 videos from last year! I figured it was time I put a brand new cheap video up on youtube! See? It pays to take lessons from someone like Christopher Hollyday!! The video might be a little bit jumpy but its the sound that counts for this so please... LISTEN and enjoy!!

this was quite nice--I was pleasantly surprised, especially after some of the 'student' or 'amateur' vids I've seen on YouTube. Kudos to you and your teacher (I am a teacher and musician, myself)

@BuckieBear Thanks! That's what I try to do with these videos so it's nice to be acknowledged by other teachers!

Hi there Dude. Lovely rendition. Mulligan was the greatest. Loved him and Chet. I play Alto and my main man Is Desmond. Love that West Coast thing. So Sad to have Lost Blossom Dearie. Saw her at Ronnie Scotts a few times back in the Hay Day of London Jazz. Once the Jazz Gene grabs your soul she never lets go. It was a delight to hear you play. I am signing up for future broadcasts.
