  • That's Tommy Perkins on drums. Tommy also played with Bob Wills and was a fixture in the Oklahoma City jazz scene.

  • Pure music.....

  • You trube rox.....

  • Wonder what happened to the rest of this concert video? This was Oklahoma City around 1996. I was there, and it was a great show. The video crew said they were filming this for a PBS documentary. Anyway there was a smokin' version of "There'll Be Some Changes Made" that included a great guitar solo and vocal by Eldon Shamblin. Eldon was pretty far up in years by this time and suffered from severe arthritis. Yet his rhythm playing is still outstanding. Truly one of the greats.

  • Thank you Gtrwrkshop for this interesting video.

    Yes-these are both virtuosos-but in their own styles!

    playing together they are like chalk and cheese.

    It is like putting Billie Holiday on stage with Pavarotti!

    (Well, perhaps not that bad but you get my point, I hope)

  • That bass just pissed me off the entire song. He didn't even solo well. Eldon should have gotten that solo...

  • What a legend...The Jazz world has truly lost another top great in Herb Ellis. I had to restrain myself from crying in the Tucson airport when I heard of his death last night...(and Eldon Shamblin was completely disrespected during what should have been a great solo...I bet it was, too.

  • Two of the greats...Check out Shamblin's moving bass lines while playing chords...a true master...and Ellis is such Texas Bop...great stuff...about as good as it gets!...

  • I think Eldon was more of a master than Freddie Green. Both were great but Eldon's chord vocabulary and counter lines made him the greatest rhythm guitar player of all time. (in my opinion)
