Benny love the vocalese …. Truly a lost art form… You are the best of any contemporary vocalese singers… Eddie Jefferson is in heaven, now laughing and crying his head off…😂❤❤🎉😢😂❤
I don't usually comment but this is one hell of a song. I've been listening to it since it came out, and I find myself back here again and again. Incredible work!
Over the top with brilliant singing and vocalese. The arrangement is also uber brilliant. Two of the top upcoming jazz vocalist/players on the scene today, Benny and Veronica! Bass player and rhythm also brilliant!!
I've never heard vocals better than this. You're both absolutely insane. And the band...just watched an Aimee Nolte vid discussing how to swing hard. She could have just referenced this vid. Gold Standard. Christian you're a monster.
Absolutely gorgeous! Stumbled across this after the Jaq The trombone transcription. You guys are uber incredible! Your tone and clarity is just amazing!
Very good vocalists of the younger generation firmly rooted in the best jazz tradition that they have learned from their forefathers. Long live what is well done! A joy to listen to these young vocalists and musicians! Thank you! Merry Christmas!
Benny, I absolutely love your amazingly musical and unique feel and melodic approach to playing (especially as a trumpeter), it just puts me in a great mood every time. Keep the bar high BB3!
Magnificent version of a great Gigi Gryce tune! Benny and Veronica so awesome in duet - and Christian McBride & crew top notch behind them. Wonderful stuff!
Nice! It is so nice and refreshing to see members of the younger crowd (yeah, I'm only in my early 40s) not only getting into jazz singing at all but doing it well. Swingin' rhythm section and fantastic vocals.
Whaaat! How have I only just seen this? This is one of the most perfect jazz videos I've ever seen. Flawless vocals, smoking band, SUCH a swing. Can't explain how much I love this.
WOW!!! This is Fire 🔥🔥🔥! Exceptional Vocalese Jazz riffs from both the talented Mr, Benavides and Ms. Swift. Can’t stop listening to it. Love it from beginning to end! 💕🥰
How wonderful that such delightful skills are still around. This is some of the best, hippest, most dazzling, clever perfectlion in music making that I've ever heard, and at 77 years old, I've heard a lot. It's like Mel Torme and Ella are still with us. Thank you, Benny. Thank you, Veronica. Thank you, Steve.
Great 21st Century update! Veronica and Ben put their own unique spin on this classic! A scat-singing, improv delight. Great "Moody's Mood" quote by Ben. Christian, Ulysses, and Takeshi on bass, drum and piano keep it swinging in the pocket.
They swing ! Both have tremendous style, and above average instruments and control. Veronica has a slightly bigger resonating cavity than Benny's. Phenomenal phrasing by each. Bravo!
Veronica Swift’s voice is incredible
she's a true pro!
closest I've ever heard to Ella especially in the lower registers
Ouit
@@bbjazzIII maybe another record with her ? Hehe ...
@@Yousefmesef She is really good but but but too much influence of Ella, with all my respect, Verónica is incredibly perfect.
Man, the musicianship in the video is absolutely out of this world. BBIII you're a monster...Christian's pocket? Oh lawd.
OMG HELLO IM A BIG FAN
The whole group is just talent and hard work definitive hey. Swings so hard!
I'm so hurt
Watch Veronica’s reaction at 1:33! Best version I’ve heard so far. Outstanding musicianship. Great job with the lyrics!
That was crazy when I first heard it mad talent
Best version EVER!
It can't get better than that..
😂😂😂😂 I love this moment
that Moody's mood quote at 1:19
haha you caught me ;)
Isn't that in turn a quote from "English Country Garden?"
@@michaelnorris2522 Correct
I discovered this style of song when I first heard King Pleasure's cover of Moody's Mood for Love, nearly 50 years ago.
Benny love the vocalese …. Truly a lost art form… You are the best of any contemporary vocalese singers… Eddie Jefferson is in heaven, now laughing and crying his head off…😂❤❤🎉😢😂❤
Can’t. Stop. Listening.
Veronica is an amazing artist with the sweetness of Ella's voice and the incredible musicianship of Anita Oday. What a find!!!
Just a big "yes," Shirley.
After 47 years of listening only to jazz, I can say that this is a wonderful performance
I discovered back around 1957 that some musicians/singers were so much more capable than we mere mortals.
Contemporary jazz singers summit that's got it all: singing, vocalise and scat singing by two of the best around.
3:40 YES GIRL GET IT ✨☀️⭐️
Without question....the absolute BEST version of this song in existence. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC IN EVERY SINGLE REGARD!!!!!!!!!
Their voices returns me to 1950 NY
I love the way they meet on the final note.
Yup, I've found it. My favorite music genre is Benny Benack III
I don't usually comment but this is one hell of a song. I've been listening to it since it came out, and I find myself back here again and again. Incredible work!
thanks so much for breaking customs to speak out ;)
Bro if isn’t one of the greatest things ive heard idk. Both have amazing voices!!
This is scary good
Love this, what a great feel.
Christian McBride helps! ha
@@bbjazzIII Oh yes, absolutely. I play a lot of my jazz guitar in Bb as well. It's a real jazz key along with Eb, F and C.
Adorable, both. Virtuosic and joyful and perfectly in character. A revelation.
That was really cool. A conversation put to music. Great.
Over the top with brilliant singing and vocalese. The arrangement is also uber brilliant. Two of the top upcoming jazz vocalist/players on the scene today, Benny and Veronica!
Bass player and rhythm also brilliant!!
How on earth did I JUST NOW stumble across you guys?! UA-cam algorithms suck. I want more like this
Late to the party, but wow! So glad I found this!
I was listening for days on UA-cam Music and just came to see who the bassist was. Of course it's Christian McBride XD
that is one of the slickest things I've ever heard
Getting some serious "King Pleasure" vibes out of this one WOW!!
Incredibly!!!
On repeat for the last two weeks. No sign of this ending any time soon.
Wow! The real deal! Please God, let the numb public know about these fab artists!!!!!!!!!
Wonderful !!! I'm a big Swift fan. And now I'm so happy to discover another great singer: BENNY BENACK !!!!!
Wow , two of the greatest vocalists on the scene today together in the studio.And what a rhythm section.McBride is such a master.
Fantastic !!!!!
insane personnel on this one
Benny, and Veronica’s lyric runs are so Eddie Jefferson. So hip.
These people really grasp music to the core. BEAUTIFUL!
I've never heard vocals better than this. You're both absolutely insane. And the band...just watched an Aimee Nolte vid discussing how to swing hard. She could have just referenced this vid. Gold Standard. Christian you're a monster.
And Veronica too !
Never? Absurd! You've obviously never listened to Ella Fitzgerald or Sarah Vaughn! Get outta here with that BS!
We love you Benny!
University of OWENS JR. Swinging and so tasteful drumming!
awesome.....100% pure swing juice
I always seem to come back to this song whenever I have a little jazz phase again
Love this!!! Already transcribing it :)
can't wait to hear it!
Jazz lives
Just heard this on Real Jazz SXM and came here to hear it again. The pitch control is incredible!
Oh yeah!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous! Stumbled across this after the Jaq The trombone transcription. You guys are uber incredible! Your tone and clarity is just amazing!
Benny this one is a home run, baby.
Can’t get enough of this. Every part of it is absolutely perfect and I can stop listening!
Very good vocalists of the younger generation firmly rooted in the best jazz tradition that they have learned from their forefathers. Long live what is well done! A joy to listen to these young vocalists and musicians! Thank you! Merry Christmas!
This video makes me want to see these two together VERY OFTEN. Love the improvs. So nice to hear!
I keep returning to this all the time. It's magical. Might be addicted.
Woooo! This is burnin! The groove is so locked in
Benny, I absolutely love your amazingly musical and unique feel and melodic approach to playing (especially as a trumpeter), it just puts me in a great mood every time. Keep the bar high BB3!
Damnnn, that was good. 👌🍸👍🌹
Christian McBride all day... Wow.
I laugh and cry each time I'm listening this. Love them ! Great musicians... Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great. Some part of the song reminded me 'Moody's Mood For Love '
No one does this better than Veronica
Been obsessing over this for the past two days.
Straight to my pleasure center!
Magnificent version of a great Gigi Gryce tune! Benny and Veronica so awesome in duet - and Christian McBride & crew top notch behind them. Wonderful stuff!
What a joy to listen to and watch these two fantastic singers! You can hear and see the fun they had recording this song.
Monstrueux !
J'entends tous les anciens mais...aujourd^hui et maintenant .
Fantastic!!.... Tottaly fantastic!!.... Nothing better... Wow!!!
Nice! It is so nice and refreshing to see members of the younger crowd (yeah, I'm only in my early 40s) not only getting into jazz singing at all but doing it well. Swingin' rhythm section and fantastic vocals.
Merci pour ce bon moment 🙂
SUPERB!!! Their intonation!
I get the Moody's Mood for Love vibe.... ❤
Whaaat! How have I only just seen this? This is one of the most perfect jazz videos I've ever seen. Flawless vocals, smoking band, SUCH a swing. Can't explain how much I love this.
This is the best jazz music i ever hear. You are cool Benny Benack
WOW!!! This is Fire 🔥🔥🔥! Exceptional Vocalese Jazz riffs from both the talented Mr, Benavides and Ms. Swift. Can’t stop listening to it. Love it from beginning to end! 💕🥰
The talented Mr. Benack
The two best young jazz singers today. The art of Vocalese ain't for the faint of heart 🤎
Love Benny and Veronica. This arrangement is great and allows them to drive the music instead of the music arrangement boxing them in.
Ahhh! I cant stop listening to this, again and again and again, its so good!
OMG..Lambert Hendricks and Annie Ross!! This is fantastic! Just found this. Made my week!
Veronica's mother sang with the Lambert Hendricks Ross group.
Keep replaying at 1:54 ahh perfection
Fabuleux !! Irréel, un tel swing , ils viennent d une autre planète 🌎 prise de son et mixage d une élégance rarement entendus sur cette terre, bravo 😊
What a talented group of musicians, the lot of you! I'm so glad I found your personal channel, Mr. Benack. It's an absolute gem.
thanks so much for listening and the support!
This is outstanding...
It's Mel, it's Ella, it's Dave, Jon and Annie... no less !!!
(the list could go on... you have it all !)
Anita?
This performance puts this duo up there with Jackie and Roy.
How wonderful that such delightful skills are still around. This is some of the best, hippest, most dazzling, clever perfectlion in music making that I've ever heard, and at 77 years old, I've heard a lot. It's like Mel Torme and Ella are still with us.

Cal Herron well your support made my day! 😉
Great 21st Century update! Veronica and Ben put their own unique spin on this classic! A scat-singing, improv delight. Great "Moody's Mood" quote by Ben. Christian, Ulysses, and Takeshi on bass, drum and piano keep it swinging in the pocket.

voice so in control... so sophisticated.

They swing ! Both have tremendous style, and above average instruments and control. Veronica has a slightly bigger resonating cavity than Benny's. Phenomenal phrasing by each. Bravo!
This is total, absolute perfection, and I'm sharing it with all my buddies! Hope you guys make music for decades to come...
Beautiful… Benny and Veronica together ! It’s magic … . The first time I listened to Veronica on a local radio station … I was blowing away !
