Nathan Davis, Benny Golson, Claus Reichstaller, Jon Faddis, George Cables, Abraham Laboriel, Dennis Mackrel. 44. Internationale Jazzwoche Burghausen, Wackerhalle, Germany, March 14, 2013
All of the people complaining about the soprano sax solo need to show some respect. That man, Dr. Nathan Davis, created the ONLY Jazz Studies Ph.D program in the United States. Check behind me, and see for yourselves--all other programs go only to the Master's degree, and then make you earn the doctorate in some other music field. I heard the man in many other (live and recorded) contexts, in which his tone and intonation were much more in keeping with his great jazz resume. It seems to me that he simply sacrificed many thousands of hours of practice time, devoting them instead to creating that program for many thousands of scholars and musicians that would come after him. He deserves our gratitude--not our criticism.
It looked to me the poor chap was caught out. He was possibly told "You're up!" & it looked like he scrambled to get his soprano sax. Perhaps he missed a bar of the opening of his solo, but hey, that's jazz man!
Chile, that's some good music ain't no doubt about it! They man in the back at 08:00 is REALLY feeling it too LOL! His facial expressions are priceless! Love it!
this is the last of our original music. For the music. Form our pase setters. They are the first and will not be the last to announce the goodness of the heavenly sounds of love. Let the music play until the birth of our souls continue to call for the continuing for peace on the earth. God bless the world. Ms Dorothy Triche
I just love this. I did an Acapella version with (melodyLaba app) of "Killer Joe" after watching this performance last Sunday (6-12-2016) This is real music!!
This is one of my favorite songs, and I thought this was a great performance. I really liked the soprano solo, and then how the trumpet picked it up. Really nice
The longer I play, the more I realize that I do not criticize but take in other player's interpretations. Also, the greats were great often by the notes they chose not to play just as much by the ones they chose to play. If you noticed, he picked up the soprano sax at the last moment. I believe he was going to play the tenor in his mind.
Killer Joe is omposed by Benny Golson in 1960. The original version is by Benny and Art Farmer 1960. There's a spoken intro about the pimp Killer Joe. Quincy Jones's version is 1969. In this Jazz Masters All Stars, I am disappointed with the soprano sax improvisation. But this is such a beautiful tune.

Thats it! One of the best "Killer Joe" interpretations...
Yep! I agree! Wow!
I love the energy from the bass player!
That's right. I' m too!
We be blessed to have Benny still alive among us. A gem of a gentleman for the ages.

I learned how to play this song and every time a band teacher says we have free time, I play this on my saxophone
This is more delightful than I anticipated. The quality of the recording matches the quality of the playing. DELIGHTFUL!
This is BEAUTIFUL!!
It sounds like the jazz music you hear from movie scenes
Pure Gold 😊
Ain't nothing like a muted trumpet!
They both sound good
Well done boys, you gotta come to my neighborhood; I'm sure that's Joe on the clarinet.
Is complete concert still available?
this is music
This is jazz xd
the bass player is jamming out
Yea he's right on it Luis..
Luis Ramos Abraham Laboriel on bass!
The Bass Player is indeed unconscious!
One of a rare kind. There is an unusual lowering of overall volume I think.
or mic everybody????
damn love the piano solo
Fabulous.
Came here from watching Lilyhammer 👍
I found it yessss

I agree. On stage and having to adjust is difficult. Like getting dress in the window. Nathan Davis payed his dues. Well respected artist.

A shout out to the marvellous George Cables who played with greats like Art Pepper and Dexter Gordon in his illustrious career.
👍
Art Farmer's version!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Swinging.
Is it just me or was the trumpet almost silent during his solo? I could barely hear anything.
4:39

quincy jones arrangment?
Great performance. But who's who? I only know some of these players.
2:04

bob bellington Jim Jim
1:41
1:42
It is the Player bass Abraham Laboriel?
Yes indeed, on electric 5-string. Rich, deep and smooth.
Proof that Jon Faddis plays pretty boring solos when not in the upper register. Not bad, but felt pretty awkward on the bridge.
First comment
This soprano is terrible .
God true though.yuck yuck, and yuck
Soprano sound sucks 😱👎
Thanks for being such a kind human being sir
i'm sorry for saying this but benny golson's improvisation just ruined the hole tune. awful performance
What was wrong with his solo?
Fcarpo Are you crazy? It's his song. He wrote it. He can do whatever he chooses to do with it.
+Tave Hawkins fo realz
if you want to talk about bad solos, the soprano was the one that ruined it, not Benny.
