In the early 1970's I attended a Jazz clinic at a local High school in Dayton, OH put on by The late great Maynard Ferguson. It was in a band room and they set up folding chairs for the small audience. I was in the front row and the bell of his trumpet was less than 10 feet from my face. When he started to play, all I can say is ...MY GOD!! I have been a Maynard fan ever since!

stunning listening to Al, stunning. So effortless.

@MrMo228 This is evolution and "progress"....add some of your personal soul to a tune? I dig it!!

Al cut him with a knife

Doc severinsen was the best!

Three words say it all...BEAUTIFUL, SMOOOOTH JAZZ!
These are two of the absolute best jazz trumpeteers to ever grace the jazz/blues scene. Great video...

I must say, I prefer Al's playing in this video to maynards, yes maynard plays ridiculously high notes but al's playing is so clevrly placed and he has a beautiful tone!! :) of course maynard is still one of the best all time players!!
-
a very good version...but nothing compares to ella fitzgerald's "take" on this immortal song.
-
Two of my long-time favorites, but first time hearing them together. Must say that (on this tune anyway), Al's phrasing and imagination take the day....he's just so soulful on balads...brings tears. Of course Maynard makes the heart go boom anytime he hits that high register. What great legends. Thanks so much for the post. Thanks goodness I had the good fortune to see them live before they passed on.
