After a concert in Borås, Sweden 1957; Jack Teagarden came out from the Hall and I get his autograph - I said from my heart: "I love Your music". - He smiled. I was then 17 Year. Thank You for the wonderful art of music. Donald Fransson.
That drummer is the legendary Ray Bauduc. He played in Ben Pollack's band alongside Mr. Teagarden back in the 1920's before going on to play in Bob Crosby's (Bing's brother) band..
Thank you for sharing. Jack Teagarden stayed within the closer slide positions (hardly extending his right arm) and used his extremely flexible embouchure to play rapidly when he wanted to. However, his minimal arm movements and legato style make his playing seem so relaxed and easy. Such technique, tone, melody.
In 1944 i fell in love with the Teagarden style of trombone on a Red Nichols recording. Throughout my own career as a jazz trombone artist I have been greatly influenced by the Teagarden style. We met in New Orleans in 1958 and became good friends. It is fitting that he is considered to be the Father of Jazz Trombone........Bob Havens.
John Hoy With out a doubt I hear if he went to a club and Tommy Dorsey or Glenn Miller were playing the were very nervous seeing Big T there in the audience!
Thank you for the support. I was 16 and just getting into my love for JT and the likes when I uploaded this. Frankly, it’s a miracle it’s still up. Now I’m almost 32. I just had my first daughter and I’m visiting these videos more lately to introduce her to great music. Together, we all keep great American Jazz and Dixie alive.
@@ARMYMan92 Do you know some Teagarden hidden gems with vocals? Not necessarily his vocals. I found Mis'ry & the Blues and I think that is just perfect. Mystery to me what it isn't often covered. If I were a singer I'd definitely have a go at it....I like how Jack's voice sounded early on....For listeners, great thing about this period is that you can just find so many good things so easily. Not so great for the players and publishers but for us, it is miraculous
Absolutely fantastic! I really love this. I hadn't listened to Jack in years. I won't be making that mistake again. He was one of the all time greats and Ray Baduc is so good too. The other musicians are not well known, but fabulous players. I hadn't realised that Charlie Teagarden was so good.
Love this one. All the musicians are hot, the piano player playing three styles is pretty cool. Jack's brother on Trumpet - hot and of course Jack Teagarden sets it all up and finishes with his uptempo style.
Yes Big T was the king of the Bone! Notice his armature he doesn't go past the bell, Cause he picked up the t-bone as a very little boy and his arms wouldn't reach so he developed his unique style like no other!
I grew up blowin to these Texas cats..78rpms that were smooth on one side..my dad on clarinet, moms on piano, chubby😊 on drums, perlinha on trumpet..we were hot ..these cats were the mold
That pianist ain't doin' any half-assed job either. But yeah, kuddos to the drummer. Also, my old man could talk for hours 'bout Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa... As fer meself, I tend to prefer the sax in a jazz band. Or the xylophone.
If you haven't already check out the many Gene Krups versions. I would never say one version is better than another or better than this but they're just different and all fun
I live just a couple of miles were Jack lived in Oklahoma City. I often drive by hoping there are a few unclaimed notes of his that I might pick up. None yet. This is a great recording. Thanks for posting.
Old post but I actually have a song written by Jack before he died, called Adella, I lost a tape I had of his sister Norma playing it on piano! I know that is buried somewhere in my life time of stuff I can't throw out,, I need to look for the tape, The song has never been published! Wonder if it would work today? Big T was the king of the Trombone.. I was told that Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller would have trouble playing if Big T was in the audience..
Bob Kemper Jack was a friend of my family and I actually have a song he wrote and never published I had it recorded on a cassette tape years ago his sister Norma played it on Piano! I am a drummer so don't read music to play it.. It was called "Adella" I have to dig it out and try to do something with it! Sweet song!
Truly, this is a great performance! At first, there really weren't too many JT videos on UA-cam, so I did a little searching around and got a few videos. Unfortunately I wasn't able to put up as much as I wanted too, but I was able to get what I thought was necessary. Good luck to your Little One! Let me know how he does!
HELLuva band! My gosh! I grew up with jazz but I will certainly get to know who these guys are. Besides Teagarden that is. Wow.. thank you for posting. And I dont know you or how long you served but thank you for your service ARMYMan. :))
stacyblue1980 Teagarden and Armstrong all over youtube! I just let them play and close my eyes.. Check out new generation in New Orleans "Tuba Skinny" Fabulous young monster players New Orleans Jass.. it was Jass before Jazz! Trivia! Yes Army man thanks for you service!
Thanks for posting this. When was this recorded? I recently acquired a Buescher 400 trombone made in 1945. It plays sweet and rekindled my desire to master the instrument. This was perfect to work on. I am working on both the trombone and sax solos, which are great to learn from and practice.
@hunternovak: Writing down such a solo is absolutely pointless. You can never fix the subtleties and the swing of such a player like Big T in writing. Learn it like every beginning jazzer does, listen to it so often till you know what to play. You won't play Teagarden's solo after this, but - hopefully - something good.
Somebody correct if I'm wrong (which is quite often), but I believe that this is an uptempo version of Ochi Chernye - and if it is, I'm guessing the English translation is Dark Eyes?
Boy you gotta wonder if Jack had been listening to a lot of Raymond Scott about this time. Sure sounds like a Scott type of arrangement. And who's the piano player here? He's great.
Can someone please either write a transcription of the trombone part or point me in the direction of one? This song is truly one of those timeless swing charts

I met JT at the Metropole Cafe in NYC in late 1963 and he signed a book about his biography!
What a better place the world would be, if music and musician's like that were popular again.
I do not think the world is ready to have this much talent injected into it just yet, pity though... it's so good.
Search on youtube Tuba Skinny in New Orleans, I found them and binge watched them for weeks still replay them! Young generation smokin hot!
The world wasn't a great place back then either
That drummer is just so happy! I probably would be too if I were playing with Jack Teagarden.
@Daniel Hall I would be too!

Mr. Havens, I gotta say I love your playing and sound but respectfully, I have to say Urbie is my favorite.
Hello Mr. Havens I used to watch the Lawrence Welk show for a long time and enjoyed your playing. Thank you very much.
I am indeed a true swing fan, and this did indeed give me goose bumps!
Jack - the best of the best
John Hoy
With out a doubt I hear if he went to a club and Tommy Dorsey or Glenn Miller were playing the were very nervous seeing Big T there in the audience!
the drummer is so chill at the beggining
Ray Bauduc.
Bless all the peole who posted songs 15 years ago and left them up. I am so grateful

@@ARMYMan92 to me this is as great as all the early stuff ua-cam.com/video/q84ctBHpYhE/v-deo.html
I can never get enough of this piece, it never gets old.
It's no problem! I'm glad that there are other fans of Jack that still appreciate and listen to his music today!
Love that drummer ! ! !
Ray Bauduc
Fantastic!!!
Great arrangement. Each musician is a true master of his own instrument. All seamlessly working together.
Lightning in a bottle!
Yes, Ray Bauduc on drums. One of the greats.
I never realized how much Ray Bauduc looks like Walt Disney!
Did he play on The Big Noise From Winnetka?
@@defossard He co wrote it.
WOW ! Who says America has no culture ?
That unique musical form called Jazz, performed in this clip by masters in the art !
Fortunately and unfortunately, Jazz is the only good type of musical culture America has.

Another great tune that we played jazz was "Midnight in Moscow" One of my favorites haunting!
@@fia2180 why "sadly"? Is a great version, and jazz changes it a "huge" lot.
@@fia2180 not sad! folk music belongs to all
Jazz is a music loved even more by our political enemies! It's a universal language. Kudos!
Jack teagarden is amazing, he plays faster with a slide then I can with valves, they guy was truly gifted!
Though I've played Teagartens
Dixieland tunes over the yrs I never get tired of listening to them again & again.
Joe G Bowen
Best version ever, every musucian is way up there, wonderful !!!!!

Of the close to 100 versions of this song I know, this has got to be the catchiest. Thanks for sharing the video.

Love me some Jack Teagarden! This guy had so much style and talent. That drummer, Ray Bauduc, is no slacker, either!

@@davidbento9459 He developed "false slide positions"!
Been playing trombone most of my adult life, tried to emulate Jack, but ended playing like Arthur Carr, I love Jazz.
I grew up blowin to these Texas cats..78rpms that were smooth on one side..my dad on clarinet, moms on piano, chubby😊 on drums, perlinha on trumpet..we were hot ..these cats were the mold
Haha so cool im jelly rn
This is one of the finest renditions of Dark Eyes; Thank you for posting such quality.
Roger Plafkin--Plafkin Farms, Ada, Michigan
The great, unknown Marvin Ash on piano.
Really understated but could he ever work those keys. never heard of him beofre but I'll be looking him up . There's more.
Goosebumps. Every time.
RAY BAUDUC WAS ONE OF BUDDY RICH'S FAVOURITE DRUMMERS, EASY TO SEE WHY R.I.P. TO THEM BOTH
That pianist ain't doin' any half-assed job either. But yeah, kuddos to the drummer. Also, my old man could talk for hours 'bout Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa... As fer meself, I tend to prefer the sax in a jazz band. Or the xylophone.
If you like this hot jazz and a xylophone check out these guys: ua-cam.com/video/0DmtPvFa_W8/v-deo.html
goose bumps and tears of joy!
I wish this was on a 78rpm
for years i keep coming back to this video to listen again and again
thanks armyman92
I love Big T since when I was 14... so many years ago!! :))) cheers from Italy!
This is the best I heard on youtube, certainly one of my favorites. Jazzy version of Dark Eyes couldnt have been done better!
If you haven't already check out the many Gene Krups versions. I would never say one version is better than another or better than this but they're just different and all fun
I was watching "My man Godfrey" on TCM last eve. and Misha Auer was singing the theme and reminded me the JT had recorded this nice tune.-

The execution is amazing
Thanks so much for posting this and the others from the same performance ArmyMan. the piano player is my uncle, Marvin Ashbaugh.

Magic...!!!!
High class. Time to go and dance
Per Wikipedia, Stan Getz went to work for for Teagarden at age 16. I got to see Stan at Houston's Miller Theater around 1980.
Jack had to become his legal guardian to take him on the road.
HELLuva band! My gosh! I grew up with jazz but I will certainly get to know who these guys are. Besides Teagarden that is. Wow.. thank you for posting. And I dont know you or how long you served but thank you for your service ARMYMan. :))

FANTASTIC THANK YOU
Maravilloso gracias por compartir
Ray Bauduc one of the best drummers of all time!
The drummer had a cool hep vibe around him! Just so chilled out! Great!
This is top class - brilliant posting. It made my week.
Many thanks for this uplifting post.
Great post thanks!!!
Terrific band behind him.
Haha so I recently found out I am related to this man :)
That's awesome haha
That’s pretty cool and how so
Austin Teagarden Cool!
WOW! I’m so jealous. I wanna be related to Big T. Lol
Then you are related to the trumpet player here....that's his brother.
Wow, two of my favorites - "Big Gate" and Ray Bauduc
Wonderful!!
皆さんのソロは素晴らしい！！
I am surprised very much.
Charlie Teagardner debe figurar entre los grandes trompetistas........!!!!!
Очі чорнії! Виконання просто КЛАС! Браво!
Ochi chornye.
Ray Baduc on drums!
wicked AWSOME
I'm currently learning this song via the Mickey Baker jazz guitar book. This is a great song :)
Ray Bauduc rockin' the drums!
these dudes are hip they are great musicians!!!!
lot's of class in those days , dress plus talent in one package.
Superb!
This is great!
I like this much better than moden jazz love the sound of the tenor sax still each to there own
Thank You!

I think the trumpet guy is Jack's brother, Charlie Teagarden . (Excellent piano ).
SUPER JACK!!!
Just WOW
que forma de volar con estas melodías. :)
killer piano
The forties had some cool instrumentals!
swagtastic.
The piano player is Marvin Ash (aka Marvin Ashbaugh).
Oh man, they just stand there and throw out that stuff like it's nothing. Swing hard!
RAY BAUDUC!!! The TOP!! Everest of the drumming!
Jack Teagarden is God
@MrSamWhitemoon hahahaha, the drummer? absolutely phenomenal swag.
Damn
This is old russian folk music turned jazz yes? does anyone know what year? were the USSR and The US enemies during this?
@hunternovak: Writing down such a solo is absolutely pointless. You can never fix the subtleties and the swing of such a player like Big T in writing. Learn it like every beginning jazzer does, listen to it so often till you know what to play. You won't play Teagarden's solo after this, but - hopefully - something good.
Pud Brown is the Tenor Sax Man
Teagarden in good form. I assume that is Charlie T on trumpet. Bauduc on drums was one of the greats but would like to know the full personnel.
Somebody correct if I'm wrong (which is quite often), but I believe that this is an uptempo version of Ochi Chernye - and if it is, I'm guessing the English translation is Dark Eyes?

Now that's a bad jam!!!
I got curious about who the cornet player was and I'm pretty sure it's Connie Jones. Guy still plays too!
which members are in this video and who is playing the piano??
que gran interptetacion llena de calor e inventiva...puedo decir favorita....
@Jellykarp
No problem! Wish I could have put up some more!
I believe that the tenor sax player is Pud Brown........not Bud Freeman or Dale Jolly
great clip. who is the piano player?
It's Jack's younger brother, Charlie Teagarden.
glad to see zero dislikes!
