i am grateful to my oldest brother who turned me onto jazz when i was 10....60 years a go. getz was and remains the tenor gold standard. i appreciate the earlier observation that he plays more with fewer notes. he continues to blow me away. his third stream piece with eddie finnegan on the album "focus", years ago but still relevant today, is mind boggling. i thank all jazz muscians for filling my life with the greatest treats and all the fans who supported them for keeping the genre alive. ede

Bit of a gem, yes?
One inventive chorus after another, in front of an audience, with the easy familiarity of a conversation with an old friend...
.. and all in under five minutes.

@terrryc - Of course, it's NOT about race, at all. I only cited the Getz/Quinichette examples for the sake of argument, nothing more. ... Bix and Louis Armstrong understood and appreciated each other's talents, long ago, regardless of black or white. As for Whitney Balliett, he was one of BEST jazz reviewers of all.



Bassist is Yashuito Mori, Japanese, I believe, but living in Scandanavia, and replacing Ray Drummond mid-way thru' this particular European tour. Worth putting this in the tags - and, indeed, it most certainly is the great Ben Riley. More if you have it!!! Thanks!

Thanks! I took a look at pictures in Yasuhito Mori's Myspace. He is the bass player in this video. No doubt.
