When I first saw this video, I was shock,because I didn't know he could play the piano.NICE!!!. Today you have entertainer's
Winning 20 Grammy's and can't even humm.let alone play piano. It seems that
Generation always played. piano. May GOD bless him
Considering that there was not much of a budget for shows on public TV at the time. This is still a gem. Jimmy Rushing being interviewed is a rarity..playing the piano.. a bonus!
My dad had his albums and played them all the time at home in the suburbs. I never realized how great and important it was Then to my future development as a human being. Thanks dad. Miss u. Thanks Jimmy! Miss U2.

Nor did I.

James played piano before he met Basie.
Rushing, Basie, and Billie were the core soundtrack of my childhood. I return here to feel good.
thank you VERY MUCH for uploading this. What a gem.
I heard Jimmy Rushing at the old Blue Note with Zoot Sims backing him up. He did a "Blue Skies" that I can never forget, aggressive and almost violently rhythmic, so different from the Bing Crosby version.
I love Jimmy Rushing's singing. I first heard him on Count Basie records. This show is a gem. Wonderful to see Ralph J. Gleason in action too. I'm reading one of his books now. You can tell he loved this music. He wrote about music about as well as anyone.
This is an absolute treasure.
What a unique incomparable musician Jimmy R. is. A career spanning half a century. Getting to know him better in this "Jazz Casual".
Jimmy Rushing is my man since I discovered him, more than 30 years ago. My favorite jazz singer after Louis, he also was an oustanding pianist. This Jazz Casual movie is absolute greatness. 30 minutes of pure magic.
Great document!
Fantastic! I love hearing him play piano.
"Sporting House was off limits to me." Smoke that butt, Ralph Gleason. Love these reminiscences...
I'm surprised also,that he plays piano, so talented.and very well.
What you might not know about Jimmy. I sure didn't. Straight up amazing. Thank you Nicolas!
Fantastic, this has immediately become one of my all-time favorite performances. I can alreadly tell I'll be coming back to this video for years to come.
That song moved me, touched me deep
absolutely beautiful piano
Thank you! I love this stuff. Among the best things on UA-cam.
Pathetic, but I never knew Jimmy was such a wonderful pianist!
That is gold, my boy. Thank you for posting it.
mr five by five; uno de los mejores; sin duda
Nice Video!
awesome stuff. thanks.
REALLY JAZZ GEMS!
Isn't he great! What a great thing that he is on US postage stamp (when they cost 29 cents 1st class!) Mildred Bailey as well.
I have a sheet of Rushing stamps. Used to keep it hung on a wall.
superbe !!!!
Today, August 26th 2016 is the 115th anniversary of the birth of Jimmy Rushing.

I bet you didn't know that Jimmy Rushing started out as a tavern piano player in Oklahoma City.
Maybe so since I did some of work on this:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Rushing
It just lists under Instruments; Vocals. Maybe could add piano

I loathe the term “blues shouter.” It seems to me to diminish the wonderful and nuanced talent of Mr. Rushing. I think my favorite overall album of his would be the last one. Yes, his voice wasn’t quite the same, but he works magic with a good selection of songs. (The You and Me That Used to Be)
Absolutely
I agree ...both a stylist n interpreter...just to call him a blues shouter diminishes the quality of his voice....he can wail
Right on man! Great record!
I dunno. Some of his best songs to me, well, he seems to be crying out in a string of words in a single tone, wailing. I love it and have no problem with that being called shouting, but yeah, he does much more than that, so if the term means that belting things out was all that he did, I can understand your defense.
14:32 was he referring to a #iv dim.... or iv minor, or something else? I didn't know that was a regional thing.
Do you know where we can find the music sheets of this kind of blues ?
is there a playlist?
See the description above.
What's the song at 16:53?
Trix Ain't Walkin' No More. A major online retailer sells a 7 album Rushing CD collection for $16 -- a super deal -- and it contains one of the albums that has the song.
Thank God Rushing’s truly wonderful performance of this song was recorded before the PC era came along.
