  • Is that Yusef Lateef on flute?

  • It's James Moody.

  • These 8-bar solos give absolutely no space for development.

  • I can't believe that so many people have so many different opinions here . I guess that's why they call it Jazz......interpretation . For me...I didn't like this piece as it seemed rush and thrown together wihout any reheasal to speak of . You can just tell . Benson should have been on his guitar....leaving out the vocals would have given each artist more time to improvize . And as for Herbie....he always raises the bar .

  • How come no one talks about one of the greats, Arturo Sandoval. There're few (FEW) trumpeters that can get to that last note.

  • Greatness

  • can you say high note at the end? Unbelievable.

  • James Moody's flute playing is immaculate, his performance of Cherokee from when he was playing in a band of Dizzy's is beyond remarkable

  • Its a shame the production protocol for this particular show didn't allow such a dynamic, unique, all-star ensamble -- that's never likely to play together again -- the time for (even) more improvisation in their solos. Great idea but definitely a wasted opportunity.

  • George Benson, the guitar man.  He does his thing. I enjoy listening to him music.

  • Chale... mejor dejen a Arturo solo...

  • So fun to listen to, thanks for posting!

  • @talenwaver That's exactly right
