Steve Grossman - A Night in Tunisia - Live at Gregory's
05/05/2008 : ***Steve Grossman Two Tenors Quintet*** Steve Grossman - Tenor saxophone Valerio Pontrandolfo - Tenor saxophone Alain Jean-Marie - Piano Paolo Benedettini - String basso Sangoma Everett - Drums Recorded 10, 11 April, 2008 at Gregory's Jazz Club - Rome, Italy http://www.gregorysjazz.com Video editing by http://www.michaelsupnick.com "A Night in Tunisia" is a musical composition written by Dizzy Gillespie in 1942 while he was playing with the Earl Hines Band. It has become a Jazz standard. It is also known as "Interlude", under which title it was recorded (with lyrics) by Sarah Vaughan. Gillespie himself called the tune, "Night in Tunisia". "A Night in Tunisia", along with "Manteca", was one of the signature pieces of Gillespie's bebop big band, and he also played it with his small groups. One of its most famous performances is Charlie Parker's recording for Dial (Dial even released a fragmentary take of it simply titled "The Famous Alto Break"); it also became closely identified with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, who often gave showstopping performances of it with extra percussion from the entire horn section. On the album A Night at Birdland Vol. 1, Blakey introduces the piece with the (probably apocryphal) story of how he was present when Dizzy composed it "on the bottom of a garbage can." The liner notes say, "The Texas department of sanitation can take a low bow." The complex bass line in the "A section" is notable for avoiding the standard walking bass pattern of straight quarter notes, and the use of oscillating half-step-up/half-step-down chord changes gives the song a unique, mysterious feeling. Like many of Gillespie's tunes, it features a short written introduction and a brief interlude that occurs between solo sections ? in this case, a six-bar sequence that dramatically launches the soloist into an unaccompanied cadenza. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Night_in_Tunisia
Misty - Lionel Hampton 1979
15/02/2008 : Misty ? Lionel Hampton 1979 From a performance in a theatre in Amersfoort, the Netherlands we see vibrophonist Lionel Hampton play the incredibly populair jazz standard ?Misty?. This tune was composed by Errol Garner in 1954 and a.o. was the signature song of Sarah Vaughan. Unfortunately the end cadenza is missing in this clip, but certainly still worth watching.
