For the guys complaining about the rhythm section you obviously don't understand that it's part of their style. They play jazz with a ROCK AND ROLE sound. This is legendary. And fun! 😦🔥🔥🔥
I'm a Jazz drummer and people here are missing the point that this is just music to make people happy and keep them believing in something. Whether the circular breathing is complex or not ... whether he's making people believe it's impossible to do such thing..., people are enjoying the show. Hey my fellow musician friends, don't forget you're studying/making/playing music, so other people enjoy. If you're doing it for you (selfishness), then LOCK yourself in a room and play all you want.
Louis was the greatest and Trombone Shorty knows that, you can hear it in every note he plays. And this version is a great homage to the master. Louis would be proud of this shit, and TS is KILLING it! The best thing Ive heard in years!
This is the sound and power I want to hear from jazz trumpet players. Trombone Shorty has the right sound in all registers. With all due respect to Chris Botti, I enjoy this sound more.
I just love shorty and his whole band. I am 60 years old white mom.they. Are all wonderful talented musicians. Can you please come to Oklahoma and soon. Love the horn and trombone. Never give up. Janice Dobyns
janice, I am 73 and love his music. It is typical of the midsouth blues of NOLA. It certainly keeps folks entertained and going to and from NOLA. Keep it going Shorty and gang. Looking forward to you coming the RDU area.
Great! His singing sounds alike like Leroy Jones, which is a good thing! I lived in NOLA when he was a young guy and people were talking about him then. I love to hear jazz standards played with a modern twist...so people will not forget them. thanks!
You can learn to circular breathe in 2 hours, but getting that good of a tone on the trumpet and than amount of sustained power is incredible. The need to puff out the cheeks messes up the embrouchure which is why the quality of the tone throughout is so impressive.
This song is one of the more popular ones that is played in jazz and is I'd guess that most jazz musicians refer to Dizzy Gillespie's version. Of course, my reference for learning this tune is this version, which is a little different than Dizzy's and sometimes causes confusion when playing the melody with other jazz musicians lol This version is SO hip that I'm okay with that
wonderfull trombone shorty i like how you perform playing the trumpet annd sing its a total entertainment excellent more power god bless from miyong the trumpet phillippines
Zach Carter Good point. Trombone shorty, however, appeals to the masses rather than jazz enthusiasts. The masses think that circular breathing is more entertaining, so it is more valuable in his case.
Hey, I was there too! That was such a great show. I wasn't at all thinking that he was a gimmicky "entertainer" at any point during the show because it rocked so much. I wonder how many of these people have actually seen him and know what they are talking about.
I can circular breath, and it took me 8 years to get goo enough at it to where I would feel comfortable do it in front of an audience like that, so it is extremely hard. And I don't think I can even do it for 2 minutes
A lot of people don't realize that the long note isn't as impressive as it sounds. He is simply using a trick called circular breathing. If you watch his cheeks puff in and out, you can see he's expelling air through the force of his cheeks deflating, and in that time he's taking breath in through his nose, thus being able to hold the note as long as he wants. Don't get me wrong though, it's a very hard technique, and takes years of practise to be able to do what he did with it

It's the love. Respect.

I love that I can hear history come out of his horn. Welcome the next generation, well done!
Trombone Shorty is a genius musician. Absolutely incredible talent!

Evertime I hear this version it makes me so happy! It’s just pure joy ☺️
I saw Trombone Shorty do this number in Atlantic City NJ. OUTSTANDING
Growing up just outside of Treme brought me here!!! Get it SHORTY!!!!
His eyes are part of the music
better without sunglasses hahaha
Great playing.
Count me among the ones who believe showmanship is part of the allure. And when you play as well as he does, you're allowed to put on a show.
It brought tears to my eyes. What a great song!
I always love 20's & 30's songwriting. Never believed it could be this SEXY tho!
Great! His singing sounds alike like Leroy Jones, which is a good thing! I lived in NOLA when he was a young guy and people were talking about him then. I love to hear jazz standards played with a modern twist...so people will not forget them. thanks!
It makes me breathless hearing hold that note so long! WOW
Sends shivers up my spine and a tear with all the passion that goes into each performance

Louis Armstrong of the 21st century
Very nice....
Came expecting trombone, not gonna lie... still left very pleased!
2.5 minutes circular breathing, and he didn't blow flat that Top line 'D' even once! Now, that's impressive.
THAT TUNE MAKES ME FEEL LIKE STRIPPING..
Wow!! almost 2 and a half minutes of one continuous note. that's impressive. even for circular breathing!

Yes!! This is the essence of NOLA.
wonderfull trombone shorty i like how you perform playing the trumpet annd sing its a total entertainment excellent more power god bless from miyong the trumpet phillippines
Esse é um dos vídeos mais sensacionais que eu já pude assistir na vida. Muito lindo mesmo. Um dia ainda canto e toco trompete assim. rsrsrsrs....
The fact he included a motif of "I'm Beginning to See the Light" Made me laugh.
My friend tried sustaining that note without circular breathing.....R.I.P
He held the circular breathing for 2 minutes and 28 seconds.
I suspect he managed to breeze thru the nose somehow......
Alex G No shit, Sherlock.
I think I'd rather listen to him improv more than circular breath.
Zach Carter Good point. Trombone shorty, however, appeals to the masses rather than jazz enthusiasts. The masses think that circular breathing is more entertaining, so it is more valuable in his case.
How da do dat?
I agree with the rhythm section not being anything too crazy. But I will admit that the circular breathing amazed me.
Who the hell said Trombone Shorty can't freakin play jazz now? SO AWESOME
The Greatest , I love this !!
Simply amazing
I couldn't hold my breath half that long lol
hes not holding his breath hes circular breathing
his tone on trumpet is the closest to Louis Armstrong I've ever heard. If I could play trumpet as well as TROMBONE shorty, I would be a happy man
Check out the other NOLA guy Wynton- he loves Armstrong too!
fantastico!!! love Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue!
He sounds like "POPS" on the trumpet!!!
I can die anytime for music like this....
Say Heah Shorty, Bravo. !!!
Music is truly Alive.. All thanks to our Creator for great young musician....
Shorty and Orleans Avenue put on a great show See him.
Simplesmente o melhor
The swag on that bari player....

And I don't think I can even do it for 2 minutes
