Yea it was. That thing he did in solo at around 5'55 that caused Billy Higgins to smile over at him in pleasure & joy - I've never heard any other base player play that 'thing' before & I've heard a quite a lot of base solos...
This shit really swings like mad, man......Great band, and always nice to hear the great Harold Mabern on piano.... Of course the original Stevie Wonder song was in 4-4 funk tempo and did not swing anything like this here. -- There is a great story about tenor player Sal (-vatore) Nistico, who was most associated with the Woody Herman band. The arranger Sammy Nestico (sic), who was doing scores for the Count Basie Band, noticed that Sal Nistico had a name similar to his and he did some research into his father and found out that his father's real name was in fact Nistico, but he had changed it to Nestico and that he and Salvatore were related and were cousins..... so he called him up to relate the good news.....
@letsrunbike To relate to this great music you have to put everything aside and meditate on it. Jazz is music that hits the soul, nothing like it in the world. The more you listen, the more it penetrates the spirit. Go for Brother...
@Jazzanswer I think I see what you mean... The A section sounds like a I VI II subV (IV with 9th in bass) to me which I would have thought was adequate for improvising over.... but then that's only my opinion. I just don't hear anyone 'trying' in the sense that they're having any problem with it ... But perhaps you don't mean that ... I find the shuffle works well for me - especially in hard-bop - I'm thinking here of much of Horace Silvers early material for Bluenote for example...
@Vicfirth5bb Not me - i'm from the UK (Liverpool) but live in the States now ...but I do have an MA in music studies from Liverpool University. I replied to Jazzanswer because I don't hear what's going on here as just a 'shuffle' and I was interested - I would only use the term 'shuffle' for styles like the 'Chicago Blues and thus the playing of drummers like Freddy Below. 'Shuffle Beat' is a bit vague fof me here It's not a big deal for me - I was just curious. Vicfirth ... Cool name :-) Bob
Billy Higgins one the best drummers ever!
Listen to how these GREAT cats can swing/dance and sing a song! Great version of Isn't She Lovely.Billy Higgins one of my all time favorite drummers.
clint passed june 7, 2000. I loved his bass play
Very nice. So sad to have lost this many great players.
The violoncelloman is just so gifted, the saxomen too .. The whole band's amazing !
Wish I was born on the 80's seriously ..
Special thanks to this amazing Octet, great performance 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This is some of the best stuff I've ever heard. Honestly, I love it.
Love these guys! George Coleman is truly one of the greatest and he's STILL at it! His new album is a good one, check it out.
Beautiful tune! I just wish Coleman had a solo on this one for real!! He would have killed it
Great track.

Let's not forget Danny Moore on flugel horn and Mario Rivera on the hog. Not to mention the slammin arrangement of Stevies' tune. Nice video.

@PurplePlayer99 my cousin Clint Houston (passed in 2000)
I didn't realize that Clint was related to you. His connection to the Gillespie family explains why he swings so hard!
