What a band 👏 Outstanding! Pete had the best of the best for sure!
THIS IS A GREAT SONG AND PETE FOUNTAIN WAS AN AMAZING CLARINET PLAYER!
Pete Fountain was arguably among the TOP echelon of Jazz clarinetists and was my idol when I was 14 and learning the instrument. I wanted to play the clarinet just like Pete.
I’m 73 now and so far, the only thing I’ve managed is to replicate the haircut he sported in his ‘senior’ years.
When I was that young kid, I even saved my dough and bought a crystal mouthpiece……….and dropped it within a week of bringing it home. Broke the tip and rendered it unplayable. I was crushed and never bought another.
But I still play, still love the instrument and still marvel at Pete’s mastery.
there's still time
@@PotomacTraps You’re absolutely correct, Joel. I practice every day, often for 3 hours, sometime more. And I’m getting better! Likely because I’m more patient than I was as a snot-nosed kid.
But I don’t memorize songs like I once did, and I have some arthritis issues plus COPD. The joys of aging/.
But I ain’t quittin’!!
You comment ‘there’s still time’ reminded me of the Artie Shaw documentary ‘Time Is All You’ve Got’. Worth watching, for sure.
Best regards from Toronto!

Pete Fountain was one can forget his great talent
Beautiful, Just Beautiful.
I enjoy Lloyd Ellis's guitar playing.
Just brilliant playing one of the best.
A class gentleman and great talent.
How do you get better than Pete? There's no way!
Quel talent tout cet orchestre formidable.,Je ne connaissais pas cet orchestre bravo ,merci
Dres,
I made one or two minor adjustments, but here it is:
Chère Regine,
Merci pour vous commentaires sur la performance de Pete Fountain. J’étais l’engénieur qui a enregistré l’audio.
Pete Fountain était l’un des plus grands clarinettistes de la Nouvelle-Orléans. Les autres musiciens jouent avec lui sont très célèbres aussi. Pete à choisi ces musiciens pour ce spectacle parce qu’ils étaient d’excellents interprètes.
Le spectacle à été enregistré dans les années 1980.
Vous devriez être pouvoir trouver en France la musique de Pete à Paris, et voir plus de spectacles sur Internet.
Avec mes meilleures salutations,
Andrés Calandria
@@andrescalandria9878 je vous remercie de m avoir répondu car vraiment je ne le connaissais pas et j aime beaucoup le zazz
Hi Andres, Thank you for posting this program. You don't know what it truly means.
Il existe depuis combien de temps
at about 1:48 a squeak goof....makes me feel better that I'm not the only clarinetist that it happens to....one thing with the clarinet is its very hard to control that mouthpiece and reed ...while playing a very hard song. I did it one time in front of 6000 people, and that is all they remember....Pete plays a very saxy type of sound so its very hard ...one time on the Johnny Carson it happened again, but because Pete was so talented its not remembered....he is still a one of a kind....we all miss you Pete.
Pete never squeaked!!
I know the exact time on Carson you are talking about, but that appearance was so damn powerful no one cared it went by in a micro-second (good ear) I think that Carson appearance was one of his best - let’s not forget that Doc’s band is super kick-ass in its own right - that certainly helps too. Fountain was incredible.
