Let have a moment of silence for Freddie - I just heard that Freddie past away on Monday so I'm Dedicating this song and renaming it "I remember Freddie" RIP Freddie 12\29\08
I believe we are watching Freddy Hubbard here. Freddy was a very generous musician to up and coming players. He was an educator, a brilliant musician and a tireless perfector of his craft. He is not perhaps the greatest trumpet player that ever lived. That is too subjective a statement. However, he represented what it means to be a great musician - humility, reverence for what came before and eager to see what will come tomorrow. He makes me proud to be a trumpet player!
Freddie is the king. i met him at the keystone corner jazz club in SF in 1984 or 83, just before it closed...he was gracious and down to earth, not puffed up with 'how dare you approach me' arrogance like so many stars......it makes me sad to think he'll never play again ... i regret only seeing him play once. Freddie Hubbard is simply the greatest jazz trumpet player in jazz history. graceful, powerful, majestic, and more. what a loss.......
Man.. I just found out today that Freddie had passed away. I'd been listening to him for years and to hear the news is really sad..last christmas it was Oscar, and now this. but they're in a better place right now, probably jamming as we speak RIP... Freddie Hubbard
The first time I heard this song, I was a jazz combo concert and I cried like a baby! The melancholy of this song is just overwhelming, but the music is beautiful!
Freddie was the baddest the bad... as much as I love Miles and Clifford and Lee Morgan- Freddie's technique and chops TRUMPED them all - RIP my dear friend FH
I remember you Freddie on a rainy Saturday night at Charlie O's Sherman Oaks, meeting you was amazing, now you`re gone but i`m sure you`re somewhere up there having a blast hanging out with Clifford,Miles,Bird,Trane,Dizzy,Monk,Horace,Chet,Blakey,Roach, Powell,Turrentine,Tony Williams,Duke,Sarah,Ella,Carmen,Billy,Lee,P.J. Jones,Kenny Clarke,Joe Henderson,Woody Shaw,Eric Dolphy,J.Mclean,P.Chambers,K. Dorham,C.Hawkins,Milt Jackson,Ray Brown,Hank Jones,etc.,tell all these cats hi for me would you..
I think there are enough performers that are already trying to retain that value back again and with this positive mentality and I still listen to a lot of great music live. I can't agree with you here. For me, the only thing that kills the music we are talking about is spending more time lamenting about the present state and less showing our happiness from the music we can still listen to and we enjoy. Good music needs to be promoted positively and NOW, not as a good ol' times' commentary.My 2c
Oh, Freddie. I'll miss you so much! Every note was like the stars in the sky and every breath was like the spaces in between. Infinite Respect and Gratitude
this piece is such a perfection for trumpeters that they stick to playing the melody line as it is. this video is a gem, thank you so much for posting it christian
Grande, immenso Freddie, che mostri come con la tromba si possa dire tutto senza sfoggi puramente virtuosistici. Per me la migliore interpretazione in assoluto di I rimember Clifford.
I love Lee AND Freddie. I have no problem with Freddie's vibrato because his tone is so freakin' HUGE. He could make his trumpet sound like a fluegel when he played at the bottom of his horn
@Praclik22 Amen to that. As a 15 year old Jazz trombonist from the Bay Area, I can tell that jazz has a very promising and bright future. From the sfjazz center to the Jazzschool in Berkely, I dont think the talent or passion for playing jazz will ever die, no matter how many Jazz greats of the past check out.
And while we're appreciating the playing and writing presented in this video, let's appreciate the subject of the song -- the immortal Clifford Brown whose virtuosity on the trumpet and the ideas he played were matched only by the beauty of his humanity. In an era where many of his contemporaries were mired in heroin addiction, Brownie lived a clean life. His fellow musicians all loved him. When word of his death reached the jazz community, gigs were canceled because many musicians couldn't play
As noted - written my Benny Golson who is still alive and playing at 87! Was here in Milwaukee this past Friday night and his website says next gig at Blue Note Tokyo 4/30 thru 5/5/16. Benny also wrote Killer Joe, Five Spot After Dark and many other great tunes. Clifford Brown was by all accounts one of the nicest guys in the world which really comes through musically.
Jazz will live, no matter what mass listens to. Good players still exists, ones that dont play academic stuff full of modals and scales pretending it to be soul, but will follow the old masters footsteps and play the good ol' jazz again. Thanks Freddie.
When we look at popular music these days it's usually pretty simple when it comes to notes and rhythm. That's why it's catchy and people like it. It is truly a sad sight to see that those simple songs are more popular than musical masterpieces such as this song. It breaks my heart to see one of the best genres of music disappear with the times.
met him after the show backstage. don't remember how we got back there. we talked about the show, which was fantastic/larger than life, actually -- he complained about his lip even then, years before it got really bad--then what it was like to live in santa cruz (he asked me where I was from), and his upcoming show schedule. that was about it. i was pretty intimidated by his star presence so i didn't say much. my friend did most of the talking. we were kids standing in front of the wizard...
@magnusdude61 Your comment about Freddie Hubbard being "...gracious and down to earth,..." rang a memory chime. I was lucky enough to meet Sonny Stitt, Johnny Hodges, and a lot of Ellington and Basie's band members in the 66-67 era. To a man, every one of them was kind, gracious, and almost shy with their humility. I feel lucky to have had the great fourtune to know them a little bit when they were off the bandstand.
oh my god...after he takes the horn from his face...is that his skin peeling off from the mouthpiece??? that man gave his whole soul to his art, god bless him, my face hurts just watching him play!

RIP Freddie 12\29\08
Montice Paul 9 years later, I remember freddie ;w;
Damn he died within 2 days of my mom !
Yes, I remember Freddie!
Freddie Hubbard is the reason why I wanted to learn how to play trumpet 😊🎺
I just think this is the most beautiful, sad song in jazz
Yes, it is.

In my opinion Freddie has touched much more than just the jazz world!
Surely Freddie knew how to reach your soul with that trumpet
Lovely comment. So accurate.
Up there for you trumpet boys!
Just beautiful, Roy Hargrove did a very nice version too.
Never to be forgotten. Never.
Man.. I just found out today that Freddie had passed away.
I'd been listening to him for years and to hear the news is really sad..last christmas it was Oscar, and now this.
but they're in a better place right now, probably jamming as we speak
RIP... Freddie Hubbard
After 13 years, I came back to this video, and still got goosebumps 😳
The first time I heard this song, I was a jazz combo concert and I cried like a baby! The melancholy of this song is just overwhelming, but the music is beautiful!
Almost every time I hear this tune I cry.
freddie hubbard is just flawless
Man, this is beautiful. Colorful wonderful beautifulness.
Ya took the words right outta my mouth :D
My favorite Version...Freddie at his best..:) what a trumpet sound...YES !!
Heaven is that place where Clifford plays this.
he has such a great tone!

Sent shivers down my spine. He puts so much feeling and emotion into his playing.
definately...wow
THANKS
Masterpiece & Brilliant Performance😊👍
....the great clifford brown...thank you feddie...
Why did Freddie have to die before I could see him? If only he was immortal....
I REMEBER Clifford? HUB4EVER!

This is one of my favorite versions of this song :)
It's not the trumpet that has an amazing sound... it is Freddie that makes THE sound the jazz world enjoyed up till 2008. RIP Freddie Hubbard.
Hahaha whoever put that slow motion in the video at 4:44 at the end of his solo is my hero
Awesome stuff. I swear that trumpet is connected directly into Hubbard's soul.
Oh, Freddie. I'll miss you so much!
Every note was like the stars in the sky and every breath was like the spaces in between.
Infinite Respect and Gratitude
Buongiorno in questo sabato piovoso un po nostalgico...tanti ricordi di vita bella con questo pezzo♥
Buongiorno, gran bel pezzo cara Dea :-)
Buongiorno a te.. Si è molto bello.. Io adoro lui.. La sua musica fa bene alla mia anima
Amen. Rest in peace, Mr. Hubbard. Your music lives on, late into the night.
I love this recording, it is honest straight ahead jazz. The late Leonard Feather coined the phrase Mainstream.
Why is Freddie Hubbard my fav trumpet player- at his height: power, his sound, and his improvisational skill!
I had the pleasure of hearing him perform this live, at Paul's Mall in Boston, in the mid-1970s.
this piece is such a perfection for trumpeters that they stick to playing the melody line as it is.
this video is a gem, thank you so much for posting it
christian
Freddie put in some work! Outstanding my man, miss you. R.I.P.
泣けるなぁ、リー・モーガンも良いけどハバードの哀愁あるプレーに感動しますね!
スケールがちがう。大きい。
a legend, R.I.P.
Grande, immenso Freddie, che mostri come con la tromba si possa dire tutto senza sfoggi puramente virtuosistici. Per me la migliore interpretazione in assoluto di I rimember Clifford.
one year later, i miss freddie just as much as the day he died. R.I.P. to one of the best there ever was.
Fantastic! Gosh Hubbard plays trumpet with real swing even in ballads like this.
amazing this men was a genuis, i always liked his music and his way of playing trumpet
Now that's whattam takkin' about!! Yeahhhhh so silky and smooth, this is the real deal! Nothing uplifts my spirit the way this does.....
IMPRESIONANTE !!!!
goodness me..wow man so so beautiful...pure magic happening here
Unico e irripetibile. Grande Freddie!!!
pure magic man...gorgous
I love Lee AND Freddie. I have no problem with Freddie's vibrato because his tone is so freakin' HUGE. He could make his trumpet sound like a fluegel when he played at the bottom of his horn
I'm feeling it too Man! I'd love to be sitting in on that jam session - Miles, Clifford, Louie,& Freddie all in the same trumpet section!
ハーバードだし映像も良いので再生が多いなぁ。🙄 名曲だよね。😃
@96kasper I Remember Freddie Too
This song brings tears to my eyes
excellent....!
A great tribute to a person who left us too soon
Beautiful song beautiful player
This just kills! love it!
who dares dislike this.....

clifford brown was on his way to being the greatest trumpet player to ever live. his career was cut short when he died in a car accident.
it's the voice of man; regardless who is playing Your maker is calling you.
As noted - written my Benny Golson who is still alive and playing at 87! Was here in Milwaukee this past Friday night and his website says next gig at Blue Note Tokyo 4/30 thru 5/5/16.

Freddie Hubbard blew his heart out on this one, just lovely and I'm still loving First Light
Jazz will live, no matter what mass listens to. Good players still exists, ones that dont play academic stuff full of modals and scales pretending it to be soul, but will follow the old masters footsteps and play the good ol' jazz again. Thanks Freddie.
BrunoT Some of the best musicians in the world are not known publicly, and it's kinda cool that way
crisp,clean, and with soul to spare...Freddie rocks without mile a min. fingering and loud pushes beyond his range. So fine...
i can't this outta my head
Ciao Freddie, grazie!
One great trumpet player who influenced many many others...

Lindo, emocionante!!!! Grande Hubdard!!!
Wonderful player. Wonderful song
Catch the look on his face right after his solo. Coming back to this world.
yeah man.... doesn't get much better than this.
INCREIBLE!!!!! esas notas altas del final....Grande Freddie!
I remember Freddie as well but you must respect to Clifford Brown.
Rest in peace Freddie, you were and always be one of the greatest!
You were, and continue to be, an inspiration to me Freddie, R I P
I would just like to say I accidentally pressed the dislike button and I feel so ashamed because I don’t know how somebody could dislike this...
omg! Oh, so eternally beautiful.
Love Freddie Hubbard.
met him after the show backstage. don't remember how we got back there. we talked about the show, which was fantastic/larger than life, actually -- he complained about his lip even then, years before it got really bad--then what it was like to live in santa cruz (he asked me where I was from), and his upcoming show schedule. that was about it. i was pretty intimidated by his star presence so i didn't say much. my friend did most of the talking. we were kids standing in front of the wizard...
Any exposure of elegance and warmth riding jazzy sound with absolute mastery. Thank´s for sharing.
With Round Midnight, the most beautiful song, ever.
You nailed it.
It just don't get no better than this, folks!
What beautiful music!
This is just beautiful.

Great piece of music
Absolutely beautiful.
oh my god...after he takes the horn from his face...is that his skin peeling off from the mouthpiece??? that man gave his whole soul to his art, god bless him, my face hurts just watching him play!
One of the GREATS
first time hearing this. beautiful song!
Freddie has that sound!
man oh man im in another world....my gosh
such a commanding tone and presence!
I've got a cold. And this is making me stop cough while I listen. Dare I say it? I got a cold, and the prescription is more Freddie!
Un grande del Jazz!! Tocando el hermoso tema que Benny Golson compuso para el monumental trompetista que fue Cliford Brown.

I love Freddie!!!
excellent solo, and a moving reflexion on clifford s style. beautiful !
