Freddie Hubbard with Kenny Drew and NHOP at the Molde Jazz Festival in 1967. The Drummer, Alex Riel, has just identified himself, thanks Alex. 9 Oct 06.
I was lucky enough to see this 1959 Count Basie Orchestra when they visited the UK during a European tour. This TV clip is from Zurich. I have always felt that this was his finest post-war band. Can anyone name the players please?
The Duke Ellington Orchestra performing in Turin in 1958. One of his finest periods. Ray Nance is the stand-out soloist on trumpet. I love the way he remains seated - the very essence of'cool'.
