The Greatest Jazz Films Ever - Various Artists
Il set contiene i cortometraggi "Jammin' The Blues", "Be Bop's Nest", "Jazz At The Philharmonic", "The Sound Of Miles Davis" e "Jazz From Studio 61".
"Jammin' The Blues" è un breve filmato che documenta una jam session tra alcuni dei migliori strumentisti dal jazz: Lester Young, Harry Edison, Illinois Jacquet, Sid Catlett, Barney Kessel, Jo Jones ed altri ancora.
"Be Bop's Nest" documenta l'unica apparizione di Charlie Parker in televisione assieme a Dizzy GIllespie ed altri allo Stage Entrance show.
"Jazz At The Philharmonic" è un ottima registrazione "live in studio", con performances di Coleman Hawkins, Charlie Parker, Lester Young, Harry Edison, Hank Jones, Ray Brown, Buddy Rich, Ella Fitzgerald ed altri ancora.
"The Sound Of Miles Davis" (complete edition) - uno dei migliori momenti musicali mai trasmessi in televisione, contiene sequenze con Billie Holiday, Lester Young, il Thelonious Monk Trio, Henry "Red" Allen and his All Stars, la Count Basie Orchestra ed il Jimmy Giuffre Trio con Jim Hall e Pee Wee Russell come ospiti speciali.
"Jazz From Studio 61" - con l'Ahmed Jamal Trio originale ed il Ben Webster Quintet accompagnato da Buck Clayton, Hank Jones, Vic Dickenson, George Duvivier e Jo Jones.
At the age of 17, I saw and heard the "The Sound of Jazz" when it aired live over CBS-TV on Sunday, December 8, 1957, an experience I never forgot and was able to listen to many, many times over. My Father had recently acquired a reel-to-reel tape recorder (which I essentially commandeered); and, I used it to record the audio from an old TV set in my bedroom. I treasured that recording for many decades until a decent CD of most of the soundtrack and (later) a VHS cassette containing a less-than pristine kinescope became available. The performance of "Dickie's Dream" (shown out of sequence and missing some measures in this post) remains one of the most exciting performances of any kind of music I ever heard. These musicians weren't playing for an audience, or to the cameras--they were playing for each other. I wish CBS would find a way to produce a DVD of this program from a cleaner kinescope, synchronized to high-fidelity audio tape recordings made in the studio.
How wonderful that you saw this program when it was first aired. I grew up loving jazz - my father was a professional pianist and he had a collection of George Shearing and Billie Holiday albums. I'm so happy I had a chance to see this program- thank you You Tube! It blew me away. I put it up on Facebook to share with everyone. Incredible that in 1957 people could watch live jazz with some of its greatest performers, drama with Talluah Bankhead, Ed Sullivan with Noel Coward, and an essay about New York City by EB White. How I wish we had TV like this available to us now and not evening after evening with nothing but reality shows, competitions, competitions with Z list "celebrities", cop shows, and comedies centered on jokes about farting, drinking, drugs,and sex..
When I was 18, I saw Jo Jones and Ray Brown together at Birdland. What a night!
"The Sound of Jazz" contains some of the best and most honest jazz ever recorded. It's hard to choose between the tunes, because it all is of such a high standard, but my personal favorite is Lester Youngs solo on "Fine and Mellow". Like one critic wrote: "The purest blues you ever heard.". It's been in my ears for 50 years and I know it by heart.
This is the THE GREATEST assembly of musicians ever united. "Dickie's Dream' is THE GREATEST ever big band performance. Gerry Mulligan has never played such a solo - in a line up including Ben Webster and Coleman Hawkins. Not one of the solos of any of the musicians have been greater. The GREATEST ever rythim section. All under the direction of THE GREATEST Big band Leader : Count Basie. I have this video and have watched it umpteen times - sends chills up my spine every time.
Agree on all counts. And Count.
A rising tide lifts all boats. A jazz masterclass by the greats.
Blissful, and Billie Holiday is just exquisite. Many thanks, Tadeus Jazz.
Unico!!
Too beautiful !
Thanks a lot
ОБАЛДЕТЬ!!! КЛАССНО!!!
These 2 videos do live up to the name--combined you get a look at the most important artists in the jazz field active in the '50's (excepting Ellington and Armstrong). Once again, TH-cam teaches like nothing else!
Every jazz musician needs to see this video. Billy Holiday and Lester Young died in the year following this program. This video is as important as any jazz recording out there.
Is Billie high as a kite or what? That said....absolutely historic footage! Thanks! NB
i saw robert herridge in the opening credits-at the museum og broadcasting in nyc-i saw a show called words and music-that he produced-musical numbers interspersed with poems- a young!,very young lightning hopkins,teenage joan baez and john sebastian's father a legendary classical harmonica player! wish somebody could upload this!
Me oh my, this is divine. How Rex Stewart reacts to Pee Wee Russell's awkward "modern" phrasing! This is musical caviar.
We will never see their like again. Superb musicians who knew the meaning of blues and swing. Some of the pieces are new to me as I've only seen parts before. However, the greatest piece is Billie singing "Fine & Mellow" with the wonderful line-up all soloing so sympathetically and "on message".
This is so fire it’s crazy. How crazy they all got together and starting just playing
Wher is Part 1?
Tremendous !!! You must absolutely look at this. All the great names of middle jazz are there. What an emotion !!!

Way cool, thanks a lot for this and the other videos.
Am I! When I was 20, I began working for a tv station in Boston. We got tickets for all kinds of shows,concerts, stage plays, nightclub appearances, etc. One of the greatest days of my life was seeing Count Basie and his orchestra do a gig in Wollaston, MA. I went to him on the band's break, we talked for about 15 minutes. I told him about all my records, and how I loved his band. I thanked him and walked away dancing on a cloud!
Great! Thanks Taddeus.
He's all gacked up on some down home woop chicken!
Ends on Ahmad Jamal, who looks like he’s twelve, beard and all, and at 90 is still going. He’s given us great music for a good
long while.

You need to narrate these type of films for identifying the musicians. 😤
