Ya gotta love how he gets the audience into it. My guess is most of the audience didn't grow up listening to this music so he's doing something special to get them moving and grooving.
Wow. Lionel Hampton FEELS his jazz music. HE LIVES IT. Wow x wow. Miss these folk like him and Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, Oscar Peterson, Errol Garner, etc.
he did both...but because it is improvisational...SINGING the BLUES...Blues has words....its jazz...he also did blues...cause he was nice like that...that is why Kenny G is NOT a real jazz musician...because his stuff is recorded and played note by note...a little lesson...those slaves created something good with that call and response in the fields...
Brilliant superb my kind of music there aint nobody like him now
I'm 18 again! Fantastic to hear this from my teenager years...........wow....I'm still impressed......goosebumps! Thank you for posting this!

Still got it at 80 years old.
Lionel Hampton played for 6 U.S. Presidents and The Queen of England. 7 Command performances in his career.
HAMP ! My great friend & mentor - never Left ..!
Magnificent
and he was 80 when he made this recording.- There is hope for all of us
I saw him in the early 40's in St. Louis when you could lean on the stage. No trouble, just good times.

Dette musik er lige til øllet - men på en pragtfuld måde.
Sounds more like blues vibes to me than jazz vibes.
And you can look at his face my I bet he has been though a whole lot.
Man what great musicians. We will never have any like those in the old days again.

Boogie
I agree, but it stays Mister Lionel Hampton...and it is his boogie
Nem lehet ülve hallgatni !!
LOL I saw "Newport Jazz Festival" and could not understand why every single person had brown hair! Must be one of those one-race-only countries.
They're probably Japanese that came to watch Newport Jazz Festival in person, many jazz aficionados there.
did lionel hampton is dead?
Was hat der Minuspunkt in dieser historischen Aufnahme zu suchen??
