I love her! I love this performance...saw this in real time the night it aired. I was 13. A freshman in HS and in the jazz band at my school. This at the time as well as this show was a master class in musicianship and how conversation happens musically in the spaces between the spaces. Although I played trumpet I had a mad crush on Branford.😂 Rest in Peace Ms. Betty Carter ASE ASE ASE.
Betty This was (Tight) you are one of the "greats of history". And i find some of the things people say so FLAMING disrespectful or race prejudice about things they will never understand, But HAY 6 minutes is all some people will every get in life to chat Shyt and get some notice taken of them. Then they are forgotten. Betty your the Greatest!!!
Each and everyone of these solos have been blowing my mind since i've stumbled upon this video, 10 years ago. Goddamn it thank you so much for uploading this gem on YT.
saw grant band w Seamus Blake on sax at festival here about 10 years back - killed it like he does here, where John Hicks sat before and set the bar in my view..fantastic, and folks, do you like Yamhaha Rev 7 reverb - which is all over this feed?
This is probably one of the most beautiful things I've EVER heard!

It, had to be absolutely fantastic ,to be able to play in a Band and back Her up. She, is the songstress of Time Bless.
Ms. Betty Carter......Thank God for Her.......She inspires The Jazz out of me....

GOT TO MEET HER AND RECORD HER IN MANHATTAN. WOW ! THE BEST THING, BESIDES BEING BORN, THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO ME.
I've never seen Betty look better. More importantly, I'm simply amazed at the musicianship of the performers. I mean, these guys are NO AMATURES!
Darrell Grant on piano.
One of the greatest jazz singers ever..!!
I got to see her in NYC several times and she tore up! She was neighbors with Cecil Taylor

Just finished up at PSU where Darrell Grant teaches. Good soul!
She took Brantford to the woodshed.
If you wish to hear Betty at her best, hear her with top Jazz musicians.
