LAZY BIRD in one take (John Coltrane)

"Lazy Bird" was first recorded in 1957 on the classic John Coltrane album 'Blue Train'.
The incredible lineup of Coltrane, Lee Morgen, Curtis Fuller, Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones smoked this tune on that album.
As always, I recorded the vibes part first using a click track, and then I overdubbed the piano part second. One take and no editing - you will hear some mistakes!
I'll take the spontaneity over perfection any day!
I hope you enjoy this channel and this series.

Love how you play through these changes. You make a tough tune sound easy. Which it definitely isn't!

[@insidejazzguitar8112]

Nicest solo on this song that I’ve heard on UA-cam!

[@alexanderskinner5066]
