The group heard about the death of Johnny Hodges. Teddy Wilson plays, and at the same time, it is if as he stares at some distant point; he does not look down at the keyboard, his thoughts are occupied with the loss. At 4:00, Bill Coleman is struck, hiding his swelling eyes. At 4:05 onwards, Ben Webster bursts into tears and begins to play. He is a couple of bars late but nods that he is ready, and begins his solo. For those who can recognise the music, from 5:05 until 6:05, Ben Webster plays several phrases in the style of Johnny Hodges, while tears drop from his eyes.
Today's young people are no longer in a position to understand this kind of perfect music. Teddy Wilson, a master pianist Ben Webster the voice. Everything is perfect.
Сколько же счастья доставляют мне эти трое великих музыканта! я их и по отдельности слушаю с большим удовольствием. А сразу вместе их слушать и видеть просто счастье! Большое спасибо!
I wish, I had been there..... but thanks to Ladee Melodee I see and hear again and againTeddy Wilson, my favourite piano and Ben - so beautiful.. !! Hugo Rasmussen on bass -great dane. Have been with him an hour at my school. Drummer also top.
Hi Juan, Happy New Year. Yes, the emotions are seen and felt within each teardrop shed. Moves my heart each time I view this. I'm glad Ben and others had the ability to gift their love in this manner.

Jedes mal, ... verdammt jedes mal kommen mir die Tränen, wenn ich Bens Sound mit dieser Melodie höre. 😪
This is beyond the sound of a tenor saxophone. It's the sound of a soul.
