Roy both burned and sang on the trumpet in a compelling way. One of the most mercilessly swinging Some of the most sophisticated yet unabashedly earthy swangin lines since Lee Morgan and Freddie Hubbard; some of the most achingly lyrical uses of vibrato on his held notes since Woody Shaw.
Unbelievable performance. Understand in the context of this show, they saved Chris botti for last because he is technically more financially successful, but he is the Kenny g of trumpet jazz. Roy Hargrove wiped the floor on the show, and bottis performance, while not bad, was a far cry from this bebop inspired showing. Roy once said if you don't love music and playing music like food, and playing all night is more nourishing than a meal, then you don't want it enough.
@@Dan_Dropper I’m a longtime fan and I got to know him personally thru the jam sessions. All I was saying is that his playing here isn’t melancholy. That’s not saying he doesn’t play melancholy as well, he’s just simply not doing it here. He’s coming from a more firey place here. I do agree with you that he was a melancholy master as well. His version of “Speak Low” is a haunting example.
A performance beyond ... Thank you Mr. Hargrove and colleagues.

For me, the best version ever of this song
I a thousand percent agree!
Do you know the name of the song?

And Clark Terry sitting there holding his horn watching and smiling! Would love to know where and when this clip was recorded.

RIP the best melancholic trumpet player
Nothing melancholic about his playing here. It’s in your face, full of joy, irrepressible soul, and unquenchable fire.
@@williemakeit2346 a longtime Hargrove fan, would understand my statement 😊
