I was born in 1950, and my dad, a bass player, immersed me in the exuberant groove of this art, the art that shaped him. I will be forever grateful, I mean into eternity.
I played piano in jazz band in high school and had a jazz teacher who saw the music in me before I saw it in myself. He would constantly point at me to solo and I had virtually no scales and barely any improv in me. 😂😂 We played this song for the spring concert and it still has a fond place in my heart. Thank you all for the trip down memory lane.
Never listened to this kind of music as a young guy but when i was in the Army a guy in my platoon bought a new jazz record every payday .i was transfered to another platoon as was he the first morning he was there he had one of his records playing it eas then i first realized how uplifting this music was to wake up to Thank you Leon Moore from Harvey Ill.
Lars Andersson Manhattan Transfer covered this is 1985. Chaka sang her version of the song in 1981. Please explain to me how she covered a song she already recorded four years prior? Manhattan Transfer scatted to the music. It was Arif Mardin, Dizzy Gillespie himself and Chaka that made the magic happen for her version of this song. Chaka DID NOT cover Manhattan Transfer’s version.
@@TimLIFE91 Thanks for setting me straight. I was wrong. Love this tune. In most of it's guises. But even if it's a Dizzy-tune and these mentioned covers are awesome. To me it's Parker who really elevates it.
meke Monroe , your comment reminded me of RitchieCole when he said that "jazz is great therapy -- when all else fails, you can always turn to jazz ...". All the best. ..
When creativity and technical proficiency are at their absolute peak we get blessed with this kind of improvisational art. Today, I could not wait any longer. I listened to it carefully twice and picked it up for my own repertoire. I know I'll never sit atop the peak of this mountain, but there are many places on its sides where the view is breathtaking.
I was chilling out at Birdland.in.NY.in.1955 and.had the privilege to hear Dizzy.play.What a wonderful.experience.He was.one.of the very.best ever! We.had a chat during.intermission.I salute his.memory.
What a sax intro to the solo😵🔥🎷 my fav Dizzy tune of all times! Dizzy did that thing with the drums while soloing also 😵🔥🎺I think this version is among the top of all jazz live recordings in therm of how proficient and on point the musicians where.
The moon is the same moon above you A glow in its cool evening light The stars are aglow in Tunisia Never does it shine so bright The cares of the days seem to vanish The ending of day brings release Each wonderful night in Tunisia Where the nights are filled with peace. The stars are aglow in heavens But only the wise understand That shining tonight in Tunisia They guide you through descent sand And words fail to tell a tale exoticto be taid Each night's a deeper night in a worldages old The cares of the world seem to vanish The ending of day brings release Each wonderful night in Tunisia Where the nights are filled with peace
I remember the night the Gillespie died I roamed around town playing a tape of "The Paris All Stars Homage to Charlie Parker" in my car stopping at different haunts telling people "The Dizz died" and having drinks in his honor. if it's a challenge for your ears to keep up at the pace Gillespie and Parker play in their solos imagine singing words that match those notes & rhythms note-for-note. That's what John Hendrix, known for Lambert Hendricks and Ross, did and there is a recording of it on Manhatten Transfer's greatest work called "vocalese" under the title "another night in Tunisia". (Bobby McFerrin does the chest thumping Bassline thing in it but it is Hendrix singing the solo.)Hendrix wrote the lyrics for all the songs on the album did a recording including other classics like Sonny Rollin's "Airegin " where all the singers and Hendrix separately sang the solos at unbelievable speeds. Ever time I hear it I think it's not possible, yet I hear it. Hendrix seems like he always wished he'd been a horn player so he created a new art form instead. BTW, The Dizz has a solo on Clifford Brown's "sing joy spring"
In 1980 something, I visited Tunis for a conference. Glorious Nation. Stayed in Carthage. Of course, this tune was in the background of my mind. Hope to visit many times again, I hope. Khadija 😎😊😊😊😊😊😊
First time I heard this, I didn't know the title, but it reminded me of the desert. Except the desert outside of Vegas in a 57 Cadillac with big, swoopy tail fins.
My family had a 57 Cadillac and the tail fins were modest. You are thinking of the 59 model, which had some of the biggest fins ever! www.bing.com/images/search?www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&id=B29D3DA1AF5F12CD4861C2BE6F402BE93F5B1CEA&thid=OIP.fT4o_MbxweCr4SK6jw0_kgHaE6&mediaurl=http%3A%2F%2Fst.hotrod.com%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F21%2F2016%2F05%2F1959-cadillac-eldorado-rear-three-quarter.jpg&exph=1360&expw=2048&q=1959+cadillac&selectedindex=0&ajaxhist=0&vt=0&eim=0,1,2,6view=detailV2&id=B29D3DA1AF5F12CD4861C2BE6F402BE93F5B1CEA&thid=OIP.fT4o_MbxweCr4SK6jw0_kgHaE6&mediaurl=http%3A%2F%2Fst.hotrod.com%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F21%2F2016%2F05%2F1959-cadillac-eldorado-rear-three-quarter.jpg&exph=1360&expw=2048&q=1959+cadillac&selectedindex=0&ajaxhist=0&vt=0&eim=0,1,2,6
I guess the way we perceive things is different, but I'd say this song isn't smooth, not bam in your face like Maynard Ferguson or anything, but it has this abrasive feeling to it imo
I learned about this song since I was forced to play saxophone as a kid. There wasn’t that much modern music with my instrument, but this song is one of the few that stuck with me.
Music of this nature will always make me grin ear to ear , learning how to play jazz music and how to transcribe sax, trumpet, and other instruments to my home base, (which is guitar) has allowed me to progress in a new way which I haven’t ever done in my 15 years of playing music! Much love to Dizzy, Coltrane, Grant green, Wes Montgomery, etc etc etc far too many to credit but long live jazz music even though its 2020! 🎶👍🏼😁
It's like Krieger's reply, when Archer asks him how his attempts at playing YYZ (Ahem! Y Y Zed..) are going: (Bemused) "It's *impossible*." And still Bird did it.
I was listening to “and the melody still lingers on” by Chaka Khan. I’ve always liked the song but could never really understand what she was saying so I decided to read the lyrics last night which led me to look this up on UA-cam. Nice 😊
🎉🎉I actually went to Tunisia as a member of the U.S. Navy. The city was called Bizerte and was on the Mediterranean. It threw me for a loop as I expected the city to be lush, green, and tropical. It was Brown, tan, and sandy. Well of course it was because it's in the Sahara Desert! Still, it was an interesting place. Once I made it down to Djibouti, by the Red Sea, then I got the whole tropical Africa experience. Fabulous song with many versions. I have at least 5 Jazz albums with this song. I even heard a hip Hop band called Kids These Days put their spin on the song. It was pretty solid.
At the time of writing (2020) this music is 75 years old (i.e. as near to 1870 as to now!) and yet it still sounds like part of the modern world. WW2 was quite a watershed!
Must Remember, Tunesia was a french colony at the time, and have retained Much of the french lifestyle to This Day, and they are better of because of that! Seems they are the only country that benefits from the Arabien spring of 2011, but codos to Dizzy who really captures something essentiel about north africa.
Non si tratta di lodare sempre il passato. Questa è musica Jazz vera. Basta fare un semplice confronto con composizioni attuali per rendersi con del fatto che non vi sono più musicisti capaci di sviluppare un tema.
I waited for charlie christian's crazy lick to come up for 7 minutes straight, misreading the "feat. charlie PARKER". still liked parker's solo though.
Tom gammons it doesn't relate to tunisia they say it was made to like describe how they felt during their time in the desert at night and this music describes that mood but it doesn't describe tunisia at all other than that
I don't know what kind of remastered work is put here, but for a 1945 live record the quality is incredible, you can have a pretty nice idea of how would be to hear Bird live. Magic Note the change at the start of the second section of the first chorus of his solo 1:28 , he probably got closer to the mic lol

I’m jealous. I grew up in a cult where they called jazz “devils music” essentially. Just starting to catch up.
God bless you ❤
I'm born 62, my uncle played sax - and his house god was Parker! I remeber when I went with him to his friend and they rehersed! Great memories❣️
For sure, Pierre. We could trade for days. And Charlie Parker-House God!@@pierrelindenstrand6273
Our high school band performed an arrangement of this song and it was an absolute joy
we played it (tried to) in 7th grade. there must be great musical value in it.
Same
My band was going to, and I was so sad when we didn’t.. I’m hoping we do later this year..
Same here. Still the only one I really remember. I was the bass player!
I played piano in jazz band in high school and had a jazz teacher who saw the music in me before I saw it in myself. He would constantly point at me to solo and I had virtually no scales and barely any improv in me. 😂😂

Thank you goku, very cool
good for you, you can take one cookie from the jar
13 yearsold!!
I am much older than you and I hav loved jazz from a much younger age-welcome to club with love
It took years to fully appreciate that I was lucky enough to see this dude play live in concert. Thanks dad.
Never listened to this kind of music as a young guy but when i was in the Army a guy in my platoon bought a new jazz record every payday .i was transfered to another platoon as was he the first morning he was there he had one of his records playing it eas then i first realized how uplifting this music was to wake up to
Thank you Leon Moore from Harvey Ill.
Jazz is some powerful stuff ain't it? Good story, thanks for sharing.
Living with other servicemembers is the best way to find new stuff! Tyfys, from one vet to another.
the namedrop comments alw go hard ngl 🔥
"A long time ago in the 40's Dizzy and Bird gave us this song. They called it "A Night In Tunisia" and the melody still lingers on!"- Chaka Khan
YASS I fell in love with Chaka Khans version when it first came out (showing my age)I still listen to it now...first time hearing this one!
Ah yes it is indeed mysterious and haunting.
That was Manhattan transfer. C.K. covered it.

I whole heartly agree, let's cut the rug.👏👍😂🤩
@Robert Dunn the best jazz album ever in music history all time classic
I also love jazz I am Colombian and this music relaxes my senses
Same here.
Bird's break beginning at 1:14 is... well, it's magical. It is often called "best alto sax solo" of all time.
I m from Tunisia and i never knew that this masterpiece existed
It was actually written in a bar in NYC. Crazy!
A mexican guy introduced it to me when I told him I was from Tunisia... Felt so dumb not knowing this already haha
Consider it your nation anthem 🎉
Literally the same 😂 I just heard about it from a friend from the US and I'm not disappointed in the slightest !
🌶
Gangstarr I Manifest. RIP Dizzy Gillespie & Keith Elam. Both masters of their craft.
parker's vertiginous four-bar solo break still thrills, and every solo which follows is a classic.
When creativity and technical proficiency are at their absolute peak we get blessed with this kind of improvisational art.
Today, I could not wait any longer. I listened to it carefully twice and picked it up for my own repertoire. I know I'll never sit atop the peak of this mountain, but there are many places on its sides where the view is breathtaking.
William Cox, your words sound like music.
Well put!
That's a humble analogy and a display of great restraint.
@Den V Bem Gott admit. Still chuckle when I see this.
I love this sound !!!
I discovered this song due to the TV series Cosby Show
In the 80s.
I am Tunisian From my parents and french by birth !
🇹🇳🇫🇷
You could literally play every other note from Parker's first line and it would still be a million times as good as anything i've ever played
Bird is psycho I felt the same way bout his introduction
Only a million?!?!
Literally, eh Einstein?
There's a kind of classy sleaze to Dizzy Gillespie's style. I love it.
❤❤❤❤I been listening to this for 40 years now and love it

Nobody has been able to beat that version. I REST MY CASE.
I agree I want it at my home going and miss Peggy Lee is that all there is break out the booze and have a ball
Imperial Triumphant: Hold my champagne
Listen to Jesus Molina’s version of night in Tunisia
Roland Dyens bet this version.
Flea (Red Hot Chilli Peppers) brought me here with his memoir. Amazing to see a rock legend admired jazz greats.
Such a great dynamics in the song, up and down, up and down. Pity that we don't have a better sound, still, it is a devastating play.
Such a great song and Dizzy and Charlie Parker’s music artistry make me feel I’m home again. The whole band was great too.
Which year ja that?
@@tomduzewski8594 Where did I hear what?
@@DayneReedy No. From which year is that masterpiece ?

I'm here for Imperial Triumphant. From extreme metal to classic jazz. Sublime!

Hello from Tunisia😃
The moon is the same moon above you
A glow in its cool evening light
The stars are aglow in Tunisia
Never does it shine so bright
The cares of the days seem to vanish
The ending of day brings release
Each wonderful night in Tunisia
Where the nights are filled with peace.
The stars are aglow in heavens
But only the wise understand
That shining tonight in Tunisia
They guide you through descent sand
And words fail to tell a tale exoticto be taid
Each night's a deeper night in a worldages old
The cares of the world seem to vanish
The ending of day brings release
Each wonderful night in Tunisia
Where the nights are filled with peace
My uncle used to always tell me that this was his Hip Hop! #MUSICISLIFE

Too wonderful , can listen infinitely to this.......

@@craigbrowning9448 That's actually very nasty (I suspect he had mental health/addiction issues). He was a good bop pianist, though.
I remember the night the Gillespie died I roamed around town playing a tape of "The Paris All Stars Homage to Charlie Parker" in my car stopping at different haunts telling people "The Dizz died" and having drinks in his honor.
if it's a challenge for your ears to keep up at the pace Gillespie and Parker play in their solos imagine singing words that match those notes & rhythms note-for-note.
That's what John Hendrix, known for Lambert Hendricks and Ross, did and there is a recording of it on Manhatten Transfer's greatest work called "vocalese" under the title "another night in Tunisia".

this is definitely Bud Powell playing, not Al Haig, if I'm nottotally blind in listening to piano styles :-)
Good feeling.I really wonder what a night in Tunisia will be like.eno louis -musician

Imagine hearing this beauty randomly on Spotify and then reading its name (im Tunisian btw)
I waited for charlie christian's crazy lick to come up for 7 minutes straight, misreading the "feat. charlie PARKER". still liked parker's solo though.

I don't know what kind of remastered work is put here, but for a 1945 live record the quality is incredible, you can have a pretty nice idea of how would be to hear Bird live.
Magic
Note the change at the start of the second section of the first chorus of his solo 1:28 , he probably got closer to the mic lol
Good traditional jazz music. Very rare.
Thank you professor😹💜
