From a TV program called "International Hour - Amercian Jazz", hosted by VOA jazz DJ WIllis Conover, The Stan Getz Orchestra performing C-Jam Blues. From a concert filmed at the Civic Opera House in Chicago in May of 1963.
@bobbyalanlewis The above mentioned musicians minus a few guys recorded Sarah Vaughan's Sweet and Sassy album in 4 hours , post rehearsal. It was Lalo Schifrin's debut as well . The album has been remastered which cut the heart right out of the band (in my opinion). Check it out , if you like . :)
@bobbyalanlewis So happy you found this .. Anymore films to add from Chicago.? Love it and thank you again . Looking for a film that Charlie Barnett did with my dad in his band in the 60's. Must find it.. Happy New Year
Thank you so very much for posting this . My dad is the center trombonist , Herb Wise. He is 81 now and still practices every day. He listened to this with me over the phone and mentioned that " I was practicing before the gig and playing some extreme high notes loudly , when a voice yelled , man if I could play that high Herb i would blow a hole in my shorts". It was Jack Teagarden. "Jack was a great guy as were all the musicians . I mean good men , no axe to grind stuff". Herb Wise
The rhythm section is: Steve Kuhn (piano), Tommy Williams (bass), Al Harewood (drums).
They also played a quartet tune with Stan Getz (not shown here) later in the show without the band.

The other tenor sax player might have been Johnny Board.
