    You know, I've watched this interview maybe five times. - I understood initially much of the overall significance of this interview. But it is only now, in this watching, that I realize something of its true depth. I commend you, Monk, for getting Mr. Hampton to open up in this way with you here. What he offers in this interview is priceless in terms of our understanding of jazz musicianship at the most organic level, and at this most important juncture. Truly, I believe that doctoral theses could (and will) be written on what Lionel Hampton cryptically intimates in this interview.

    I really loved this interview. BTW, at around the 8:30 mark, when Hal was trying to think of the man with whom he had worked when he was young...the clarinetist who wore the top hat; I kept saying out loud "Ted Lewis, Ted Lewis," as if they could hear me! My wife thought that I was crazy!!! Ted Fio Rito was a very good guess by Monk. He was popular too. Actually, Ted Lewis used to sing "Me and My Shadow," and was known for his catchphrase "Yes sir, is everybody happy?" He was known as "The High-Hatted Tragedian of Song," and was a real showman! Monk is such a tremendous interviewer. I love the way he paints the cultural picture by mentioning songs or events of that era (in this case for the year 1950, when Hal was about 15). Fantastic stories of his days with Woody Herman, and their driving together in Woody's Corvette! Hal has such a pleasing, unassuming demeanor, and Monk has so much warmth. This was a joy to listen to.

  • @littlerainyone
    @littlerainyone Місяць тому

    What a cool interview, so rich in insights that give us a peak at the magic that makes a performance musical. For example, the observation about making each voice in an arrangement melodic and the observation about how musicians who've played together for some time learn unspoken cues. The anecdote about the players in the Count Basie orchestra breathing at the same time made my jaw drop. Just listening to this I felt I was part of the music fraternity briefly, and it felt great. Very cool. I stumbled on this video, because my wife & daughter were talking about a fictional jazz club that was a musical mecca in a anime movie for which Hiromi did the sound track, and I told them such a thing existed here in the DFW area, because decades ago when I was in college, Lou Marini lead an orchestra that was popular with all the best jazz musicians in town. It was a blast from the past.

I was never so proud… for winning the show (which was very easy) I won a $500 gift certificate to a fancy little ladies dress shop, a mug with the show’s name on it, and a piece of sausage the handle of the mug broke after a couple of months; I had to throw the sausage out because it hadn’t been refrigerated properly, and the gift certificate cost me an extra $500 because my girlfriend wanted some jewelry to go along with the dress she picked out from the fancy dress shop - that closed a week after we picked up the dress - had we taken an extra week to visit that shop, the gift certificate would have been worthless…..
