Nice to see footage of the underrated pianist Junior Mance. Polished and bluesy!

Icoon of modern American Jazz

[@billgargaro916]

One of the best Dizzy videos I've ever seen. The group and choice of tunes were all superb.

[@massimilianomarchioni9343]

I think the best one is "Dizzy Gillespie Quintet Jazz Casual" in '64 with Lalo Shifrin.

[@robertellison4691]

The hat is a plus also.

[@aeiologic8314]

I love Dizzy

[@ajn465]

A tip of the hat to the audio crew on this one wherever it was. Well balanced and clean as a whistle and it’s 1960. I’ve heard tons of television shots from the 70s 80s and even later that couldn’t hold a candle to this audio wise. And Dizzy is still getting a really full and beautiful sound at this point.

[@luiszuluaga6575]

We are lucky to have footage such as this one of Diz and some fine company.

[@alphonsepetitboudu6552]

Junior Mance est excellent. quel délicieux jeu bluesy!

[@MelG11X]

Teddy Stewart-Just great! Why wasn’t he heard more of?

[@sommelierramon]

Yeah , aaaahm drugs ? Or not ?

[@santih5043]

Terrific footage! Nice group and a really nice set of tunes.

[@davidmaslow399]

Wonderful!

[@dmitrystrelianny2486]

Even if you play with Dizzy you still think when the show will be over. check the piano player at 14:08.

[@vova47]

There was an awkward cut on the bass solo of "Tour de Force" 05:04.
Dizzy would never come in wrong like this.

[@crieverytim]

Art Davis getting it done on bass

[@jocknarn3225]

Oooohh so tasty 🎺🥇I got the Lorraine version with superb guitarist Les Spann 1959🎸

[@sommelierramon]

When songs had an end.

[@farshimelt]

Teddy Stewart plays the right amount; not too little and not too much.

[@davidmaslow399]

Just Top of the line!

[@sommelierramon]

And then.... Hadn't Dizz one of the most jazzy ,funky, grooviest voices of ..... ? So right and also sway like no one today in what they do nowadays call sway.... XXx them.

Grandi

[@brandonrodriguez7292]

Nope. St Louis Blues the very very first tune. While the lady introduces them.

[@brandonrodriguez7292]

Does anybody know the name of the very first tune they play during the introduction. I've been racking my brain try and identify it but to no avail

[@joshuaperry1067]

Tour De Force

[@vova47]

+Brandon Rodriguez They're playing their version of Saint Louis Blues.

[@vova47]

+Connie Bryson No, they're not! It's called "St. Louis Blues" composed by W.C, Handy.
St.Louis Woman is a musical by Harold Arlen and has nothing to do with this song.
