  • Hey jeez do you have the rest of this gig? I used to have it somewhere on a video years ago as a kid, man I watched it until you could hardly see anything anymore! They did this great ellington medley, benny green play this animal solo, just incredible stuff. would be great to see if you had it

  • Benny's solo left me gaping. I looked silly.

  • Benny just sets such a high standard of excellence. What a phenomenal musician.

  • I am talking about his arms waving. Being a bassplayer (big bands), we always hated conducters, since drummer or me could kick band off any time.

    Of course in studio it was sometimes needed, but shit - everybody was a sight reader, could see pp or forte - so why conduct?

    All you need is to say: One Two, One Two Three - - -

    John pointing at sections looks ridiculous - they (even Germans) could read!

  • @mrezabek1 you're right they sound confused. wait, no they don't. woops!

  • John Clayton is confusing the band.

  • I want to be like this song when I grow up

  • Hey do you happen to have Benny Green with the Ray Brown Trio playing Don't Get Sassy ? I'd love to see footage of that recording.

  • Damn.
