Brings back memories of when I was in the US army, Chicago Illinois ,I went to the best places to find this kind of what I love, im 81yrs now and will forever love this music
Grew up listening to Jimmy Smith, Bro. Jack McDuff and the likes of others. Had the privileged to perform this kinda stuff with Clifford Scott and the Scottans, Haines City, Florida. On a good night, Professor Ronald G. Coleman would assemble some of his students, and perform! Thank You for the experience (Clifford, Matt, Curt,Jimmy, Snooky, Larry, Sparkman and Coleman)
It just doesn’t get any better than this group of amazing jazz musicians. These soulful sounds will never be outdated and only get better with time. Too bad most of today’s generation of young people have no clue as to what REAL music sounds like. However, using their language, this bluesy jazz is “dope.”
Nothing matches these days. The Groove, the Funk, the Jazzy Greasy-Beat is no more! One of the very best B-3/Alto groups playing their hearts and soul out! And then the very elegantly drumming by Jimmie Smith pushing it swingingly along! These 4 Giants are by far the best. Just great stuff, so Dig folks, Enjoy & Cheers to these fabulous Jazz artists!
@@barbaraverveniotis5108 Mine also Barbara. They’re only a handful jazz-clubs left. I do watch the SmallsLive channel here on UA-cam with some great groups. Then Covid isn’t helping the performing arts scene. The world is changing rapidly. Be well, toodeloo’s & Cheers!
@@barbaraverveniotis5108 Live Jazz lives. Boston, NY, NOLA, Chicago, Memphis I'm sure Austin, NJ, LA. etc. Many diverse live venues, including in our hearland, lnclude jazz artists, great and small.
@@barbaraverveniotis5108 truly sad we continue to lose the legendary masters; the consolation is, their works are well preserved and available AND many, many torches have been passed.
This is great music ! I grew up listening to this when my aunts & uncles came over for the holidays they would laugh dance get drunk and have a good time and nobody ever got SHOT. Peace to everyone.
This is jazz at its finest and one might say it just doesn't get any better than this. If this doesn't make you feel good just listening, I don't know what does, just more of this!
EVERYONE in this group is STELLAR! The chemistry and "groovilisity" among the musicians is audibly palpable. Crawford and McGriff have been musical heroes forever, but I was taken to school on drummer Jimmy Smith. Don't know where guitarist Bob DeVos came from, but that guy's a keeper! So sorry at least half this ensemble is gone now. The audience here probably had no idea what they'd just witnessed...thanks for posting!
Allen Blasco Spot on Allen. The “forest’ of these great Jazz-talents are surely thinning out rather fast. It was the very best of Jazz times. Dig & Cheers!
There was a Jazz dive on Washington Blvd & La Brea in LA where many of these same cats would groove... 'The Parisian Room... 'now a US Post Office Ray Charles Station
Just love watching the drummer; he drums. so effortlessly and keeps the great beat. All of them are great ! I keep finding myself coming back to this session. Wish I was there jamming with them. Thanks for posting. They all look like they are having the time of their life, enjoying every note.
Hank Crawford is a GREAT VIRTUOSO ON THE ALTO SAX! A master of blues and swing, one of the truly original voices to arise on this instrument since the coming of BIRD!!!
This is incredible. Mc Griff playing Count Basie on the piano and kicking incredible bass at the same time on the B3. So much class. I used to see him often in California...dynamics, swing, feel, he had it all. Quite possibly the greatest Hammond organist who has ever lived.
It's foolish to characterize the musical affinity of a. Musician moreover any organist as better or best as it is a false. Or adjunct comparison to state music is a bit more. Deep than competition and stats. The artform is replete with nuanced. And varied life improving and validating aspects Of cathartic wisdom introspection into the vast repository of knowledge within the subconscious we know things that might otherwise never surface or occur Anyway in short a musical rhythm and l. Body of sound is a conduit for the radical energies of people to be culminated iinto an exponentially growing and solidifying wave of. Good energy. If you ebb and flow. In the groove not too aggressive nor apathetic allow the music to tell you when to. Push or allow the law of music to. Breathe and eventually even a novice can learn this. Simply by playing integrally and then pause to let the muses inform the magic I laugh at people who make such. Asinine comparison. There are actually multitudes of. Dynamite organ virtuoso in our world nowadays but all are almost for sure influenced by Jimmy Joey d'francesco Lonnie smith John medeski Barbara dennerlein TheHe organ demands to be played
There is the beat, the groove, nothing but the immense power of that insistent beat. Add the fine tone, taste, skill, ideas and character of the artists in communion, well., that's it!.
I can't imagine the jam sessions in haven with so many great musicians there such as Jimmy, Miles, Ray Brown and Ray Charles, to just name a few, as well as the heavenly host. Wow !!! Too much to think about, brain overload.
I really enjoy seeing these playing really good music, also they look so nice in their tuxes , no shredded clothing, todays musicians should watch the old masters and learn stage presence..

I don't need drugs or alcohol. I can get high drift off listening to this kind of music.
It’s not just our parents music it’s our legacy and we need to uphold it and extend it

WOOWW from Macedonia!!
Super!!!!!!
....fantastic.......
Very nice
Great solo Mr. Devos. Perfect in every sense. Execution, tone, bluesy…..it couldn’t have been done any better!
Try Count Basie and Joe Williams.
@@charlescharles9625 The Count I love. Unfortunately, I could never appreciate Joe. Trust me, I’ve tried!

Groove and a sauntering stride. Rhythmic flow and. Pulse
Impeccable. Say no more!
Good God
You played amazing stuff on this Bob. Such a groove and then unleashing the bop beast at just the right moments. Chef’s kiss!
Thanks so much, Mike! BTW I loved playing with these guys.
Great solo, Bob. You always sounded great when we were on the road together too. Glad you're still swinging.
Thanks so much, George. You were always one of my heroes back then
This really swings well - great guitarist too! Love the guitar solo - so well developed - masterful.
'Emily Remler was a 'Kick!......
I’d kill for his alto tone. That fine blues line between singing and wailing...so great.
Fabulous!
My ears get happy when real players start having fun. And these guys are tops.
The Great Jimmy mcgriff. I won't forget him. Thanks for posting.
Yes, Unforgettable......
Love Bob deVos
The Pure definition of "Sweet Soul Music. Easy to lose the blues with this "sufferin"' music. It is to LOVE. ! ! !

It doesn't get any better than this.
More than half of the population of the world disagrees with you.
It's tough to be musically self confident. Most people disagree with you.
Love both Jimmies! They and Richard Groove Holmes and booker T. Jones are the finest organists! Thanks for posting.
don't forget about Bill Dogget, mate

Wow- rare version with added treat of Jimmy's tasty piano work- sweet.
Hank Crawford is a GREAT VIRTUOSO ON THE ALTO SAX! A master of blues and swing, one of the truly original voices to arise on this instrument since the coming of BIRD!!!
Beautiful guitar solo. Great tone and restraint then swingin' hard Jack.
Yes. Yes. Yes. A new name for me. But holy moly, the cat can swing.
@@GlenMcGlone Same with me. I’ve never heard of him but dang! I sure will looking for more. Talk about “TASTY!!”
@@syn707 Tasty indeed, bro.
@@syn707 He’s in some of the comments on this video.
@@GlenMcGlone Well thank God I edited another post where some weird software changed his name to something..well, I fixed it....Whew!
Great rendition of this blues classic - Bob DeVos's guitar play really shines!
Hank Crawford agrees!
he's got that Lollar pickup!
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
@@pertburton5586 Sorry, I never had the opportunity to play with James Brown but I wish I had.
@@tpledger100 Those pickups are made by Tom Doyle. I now use Lindy Fralin.
Great music i feel Good
This is incredible. Mc Griff playing Count Basie on the piano and kicking incredible bass at the same time on the B3. So much class. I used to see him often in California...dynamics, swing, feel, he had it all.
Quite possibly the greatest Hammond organist who has ever lived.
Enrico Crivellaro
I think Jimmy smith is the best. Closely followed by Jimmy mcgriff
Enrico Crivellaro not by a long shot (Jimmy Smith).
McGriff considered himself to be the greatest blues organist, which I would agree with. He had a lot of admiration for Jimmy Smith.
It's foolish to characterize the musical affinity of a. Musician moreover any organist as better or best as it is a false. Or adjunct comparison to state music is a bit more. Deep than competition and stats. The artform is replete with nuanced. And varied life improving and validating aspects
Of cathartic wisdom introspection into the vast repository of knowledge within the subconscious we know things that might otherwise never surface or occur
Anyway in short a musical rhythm and l. Body of sound is a conduit for the radical energies of people to be culminated iinto an exponentially growing and solidifying wave of. Good energy. If you ebb and flow. In the groove not too aggressive nor apathetic allow the music to tell you when to. Push or allow the law of music to. Breathe and eventually even a novice can learn this.

I laugh at people who make such. Asinine comparison.
There are actually multitudes of. Dynamite organ virtuoso in our world nowadays but all are almost for sure influenced by Jimmy
Joey d'francesco Lonnie smith
John medeski
Barbara dennerlein
TheHe organ demands to be played
Loved it....great music!
This is so awesome. Love organ groups. Made me realize I need to practice my guitar some more!
Have you Been practicing these last eight years
Super melodic solos, love this!
Mcgriff is definitely in the top four of organists! I favor playing his style almost more than any I know. Thanks for posting.
Why only 4? Another stupid comment.
lOVE mcgriff and his gold ROLEX.............
FANTASTIC, unbelievable
WOW with a capital WOW
I still get chills when I hear this stuff.
THE GROOVE!
In the pocket... jimmy covering Hammond with his left and piano with his right. Awesome!
And pedals 😊
Lovely A102 he’s playing there with matching Leslie 🥰🥰
Very nice, I love it.
Without a doubt he was in the top three for great organists! Thanks for posting.
GRAND MASTERS OF BLUES AND SWING...THE ESSENCE OF FUNKY JAZZ!!!
Discovered Jimmy McGriff in the early Seventies and have been a fan ever since. Love this. Thanks, guys!
This solo made love Mr. eVos ! Yeah!
Enrico is SPOT ON.
Jimmy McGriff IS the greatest.

I used to see Bob DeVos play guitar all the time at Wallace's in Orange NJ a Joint we all loved and I played in a lot too..I loved his playing..
Thanks so much TJ. I always dug playing at Wallace's too. So sad to pass by it and see it closed down.
Bob.? Hey you're a great tasteful player..yes those were great days I heard of Michael's passing and Frank's sometime after moving to Woodstock..
..NY, New Jersey = B3 country !
What is the name of this album ? I can’t seem to find it on Am😢azon…
This was filmed at the PBS station in San Diego and aired on PBS network TV. It was never released on a recording. Thanks so much for listening!
Awesome talent
I really enjoy seeing these playing really good music, also they look so nice in their tuxes , no shredded clothing, todays musicians should watch the old masters and learn stage presence..
Happily a number of organists his caliber, but jmmy's presentation was unique.
OMG🎶SMH😎
Great stuff. I jam with his music on my 'puter. I can only wish I played guitar as good as Bob DeVos.
Love this set of jazz. This is ol school.
Yes Indeed
Always wanted to hear Jimmy McGriff and Jimmie Smith play on the same tune together! :)
+bill dedman: the other J Smith, that is.
There are a number of such. Recordings extant on the YT
