Brace yourself ... never have I heard a vocalist like this in my life ... Mel Torme stands alone -- a total MASTER at work
God damnit! That's the greatest male vocalist in the universe! ❤
It's a tribute and he also manages to assert his own greatness. Kudos. What a joy to watch
One of the premier vocalists of all time. Underrated,but his musical ablities were without question!
Jazz Trombone Players Love Adore Worship Mel Thorme. He practically sings Trombone.
To be the greatest singing and scat artist who ever lived you had to have perfect diction , phrasing , timing and quick thinking improvisational qualities , that was Melvin Howard Torme.
That was Ella Fitzgerald, but M Torme was a good mimic.
@@direfranchement thank you 🙏. Mel Torme even said himself that he patterned his scat and vocal style/inflection after Ella Fitzgerald.
Nope that was Ella
As far as men are concerned, the greatest jazz singer in history was a beautiful little Russian boy from Chicago. Ella will always be the Queen of Jazz, but when Mel holds court, Mel holds the world.
He wrote a book called "My Singing Teachers". The first chapter was about Ella. The only male vocalist who even stood a chance at keeping up with The Chair Professor of Scat Singing (to give her one of her other many titles). We love you and we miss you. There have been none to replace you.
Torme is one of the best few scatters ever.....also a virtuoso drummer, skilled arranger, competent pianist & guitarist...there's no need to say anyone is the best...in other words, you can either cut or you can't...Mel's soloing had more musicality than anyone's in my opinion.....eos
I remember seeing Mel in Beverly Hills in all places a liquor store buying scotch, whiskey, and some rum. I wanted to say,"Mr. Torme!!!" I was a young kid , but I knew who he was.He just politely said,"Hey there kid!!" and I just went on my way. Wow!! what an experience.
Holy crap!! A whole concert in just one song. BRAVO!
A total vocal genius. Huge huge admiration. Top man.
OMG ! What an awesome singer , I saw Mr. Torme many times and he always was the epitome of cool and effortless swing. Some of my favorite parts of his concerts were the ballads because he always sang the verse which a lot of singers skip.
I love when he does an "Ella".
This man just oozes talent!!
Its a miracle this man can do this. The one and only 🎶🎸🎼
Took me too long to appreciate huge talent like this...
now as a professional musician I’m so glad.
I’ve learned so much from this brilliant brilliant man!
Mel Torme. Too good, too talented, too perfect............TOO MUCH! Love, love, LOVE 💕 !
Torme is the real deal. He loved the music, an walking jazz catalog. My music teacher used to tell our class, if you can't sing it, you can't play it...To really get your mind around something, being able to sing it is owning it. Mel owned it.
..and he does it so effortlessly..... (sigh)
Hands down the best, most remarkable scat singing I have ever heard. Wow!
Amazing. Voice as an instrument or what. Not one bum note. He was just so on it. You'd have to be do on top of your game to back this guy. The drummer has the right expression - reeeeally concentrating.
Thanks posting this vid. It's in my favourites. More please.
Simply amazing and talented.Great band too by the way.
Please, more Mel. Gotta have more....
Enjoy every moment of this .... seen him live several times and think I have listened to every one of his recordings over the years .... nothing like him now and forever ..... thanks for sharing this!

Wish i was born earlier to see this amazing singer Live!!! Thanks for sharing this... that's dope !
Genius! Has there ever been anyone better?
He’s my favourite!
The velvet voice of Mel Torme.
Breathtaking!
Virtuoso!!!!
Incredible talent sorely missed.
the epitome of cool. he was a difficult singer to work with....but perfectionists always are. thank you for posting this. torme is a little neglected on youtube. dare we beg for more?
UNIQUE TECHNIQUE! UNIQUE VOICE...VELVET VOICE AND WONDERFUL SKAT!
Geeeeeeeez! I would like to sing like this now in my 20s - not in his age! :P Great master, excellent!
Superbly fantastic!
The segue into Love For Sale by Miles Davis is phenomenal
I when to here Mel at the Hollywood Bowl and him took the whole bowl apart piece by piece. They don't make them like Mel anymore.
Mike Renzi, piano;
jaschaheifetz I’m sure that’s Derek Watkins on trumpet too.
Quelle chanteur
Merci Denis!
From 2:10 to like 2:25 is epic....my god he's amazing.
Mel Torme is a synonym for sophisticated...
I love you, Mel Tormé. You are so elegant. Best wishes for you in Heaven. Loving-ly, Tyler Lord Hamilton
Genius
TKS for this real good quality!!
This made my Friday night. Love it!

Marvellous
Zowie!! Good stuff!!!
MELveilleux!
Loooove him
GENIOUS
Now THATS SCATT!!!!!!!
Glorifying merchants relations!
Mel Tormé, perhaps Ella's most direct and skilled musical progeny. Ethel Waters remarked of Tormé that he was perhaps the only white man she had ever heard that truly sang with "soul". He was certainly the most visible of a very small few white male vocalists who could truly be considered "Jazz" singers.
"the only white man with soul" ? if you replace white with black... you can be sure you are in trouble
How do they rehearse something like this?
lol
Start at the beginning.
@johneunson O yes i will load up more it needs time it wil come soon
Mike Renzi on piano I believe.
Great band.
check out 4:59...Humphrey Bogart on bass!!
The number one cool guy in any genre. Talent unbounded and his Ma in Law was Thora Hird . Quite a combination. Won't mean much to non
Sorry me again. Forgot to say got this number on an LP with Buddy Rich band. What a combination.
How can you thumbs down this?
#ELLA
mesmerizing! and not for millennial's!
Hey man, why not? This stuff is my jam! Mel and Ella are some of my fav jazz artists.
🎶😘
Any Mel fans know what happened to the UA-cam video of a Mel Torme tv show set at Bimbo’s 365 Club in San Francisco?
Derek Watkins on tpt too.
Just 871👍? What's wrong with u all?
I mean, can this be better?
Él es Ella Fitzgerald en hombre!! jajajaja es genial!!!
Si jajaja
2:02 Liam O Brien Enjoy!
3:40 한국인: 나와보세요 나와보세요 좀 하니까 피아노 나오면서 고조되는거 개웃기네 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Der größte Scatman aller Zeiten.
Me singing Pizza Tower songs
#Rihanna
How do you rehearse that?
..as I was saying. Only probably known by us Brits but he married her daughter. Who was she? Come back.
Anybody knows what the song is ?
anyone who can tell me what he does rhythmically at 5:30??
hemiola. 3 beats over 4 beats each bar
Goes on to long.
