I discovered this a few years ago while driving a limo. It always played on WXFM when I was parked at the same place. Every time Ihe I heard it I had to get out of the car and start dancing on the sidewalk!
Continued reply: every time I heard it get out of the car and start dancing on the sidewalk. FOR REAL!! AND I JUST LOVE THE WAY THAT HERBIE CHANGES HIS RHYTHM EVERY TIME HE STARTS ANOTHER CHORUS ON THE COMPS!!!!!
What I loved about Kenny Durham even though he was sick in the hospital he checked his self out and went to see MY Lee Morgan what a faithful n loving man. R I P. Kenny n Lee
Fantastic Ensemble..... Herbie Hancock , Ken Dorham such a sweet sound in its purist form. Great Jazz compositions like this always tell a story about the ups and downs of life . That's what I get about this piece of music.....
I rate him as up there with Lee Morgan. I rate others too as performers or composers but these two did both writing New music, New sounds.... OK I might invite Donald Byrd to make it three... or not... perhaps not so original??
I was all over Miles. Then one day my teacher call me and Said WAIT WAIT !!! An gave me some Kenny Dorham tunes. Since then I am a diehard Dorham fan .
Five Thousand Stars!!!!!!!!! This is one of the baddest Blue Note LPs in the entire catalog! This is always as fresh as the first time I heard this masterpiece by K.D. Kenny Dorham was not only one of the finest trumpet stylists of all time, but also an incredible composer. He was truly underrated as a trumpeter but he's one of my top 10 favorite jazz composers along with Monk, Horace Silver, Strayhorn, Ellington, Bill Lee and others. Yes, that's a young Herbie Hancock along with some of the baddest Joe Henderson every recorded and an even younger (only 17 yrs old) Tony Williams along with Butch Warren. Honestly, Tony is playing his best on this record. He never played better than on this, his very first ever recording date!! K.D. knew how to put a band together to put his music forward in the best way possible. I transcribed Joe's entire tenor sax solo and my transcription was published in DownBeat magazine some years ago.
this song is just so sweet, it goes right through my skin. It simultaneously grounds me inside myself while transporting me to a far time and place. I can never get enough of it.
uno de mis recuerdos favoritos,el haber vivdo en la Ciudad de los Vientos y haber escuchado enorme cantidad de artìstas. "El Melonero" watermelo Man, por ejemplo, en el piano de Hancock es un rìtmo siempre vibrante, and that singer: Mr. Lou Rawls is unforgetable too.
Same! His comping becomes increasingly more compelling throughout KDs solo, and then he brings it allllll the way back down for the sax solo. Then there’s a section in the sax solo where he’s trading 4 bars of chordal accompaniment with himself in two different registers. Then he takes a fantastic solo of his own!
HERE IT IS!!! This takes me back to my shack in Waikiki many years ago when I was on the radio over there. All that sweet Hawaiian uke music needed some counterpart and this and SIDEWINDER did it for me. Thanks for this post.
Miles Said It The Drummer Is Time Keeper He Lite The Fire , This Cookin At Its Best A Prodigy And A Teen When This Session Was Recorded ; Incendentially Herbie Hancock Is Lone Survivor Of This Session !
I was wandering who was on the piano because of that funky piano at the start and at 13:15. Herbie! It always brings a smile to find out it is someone great in his early years.
I particularly enjoy Joe Henderson's solo on that great track : it is all at once laid-back and adventurous, soulful and playful ! Would it be crazy to recognize at the beginning of it what will be the theme/bass line for Coltrane's "Acknowledgment" ("A Love Supreme" was issued a year later...) ?
NK, you are over-qualified for this job, thankfully! It almost brings tears to my eyes that this is real music (jazz) in its purest form, and these musicians(!!!!!!!!) played with each other. Thank you for bringing it real. Please do continue.

If you are at a loss at what to play, just play the blues convincingly! Jazz is rooted in the blues, and if you are unable to reference the changes accurately playing the blues is a respectable fallback. But this does not mean that you should gloss over learning how to masterfully play the changes...

Kenny Dorham. Some of the most enjoyable Jazz pieces... Ever!
Kenny Dorham was the best! Very underrated.

And l concur .
definitely one of the finest hidden gems so far.
Yes!
Dorham is the most underrated jazzman ever!
don't forget booker little! would have loved to see what else he would have come up with
Truthfully , ALL jazz musicians are underrated.....
I rate him as up there with Lee Morgan. I rate others too as performers or composers but these two did both writing New music, New sounds.... OK I might invite Donald Byrd to make it three... or not... perhaps not so original??

The song just kept getting better and better , wow!!! Two thumbs up to these jazz maestros!
Música para siempre, para todas las horas de nuestra vida. Amen.

My Kenny. So many nights with You. Alessio Basciani. A Mountain, trees, sunshine, beer and that wonderful unique trumpet.
this song is just so sweet, it goes right through my skin. It simultaneously grounds me inside myself while transporting me to a far time and place. I can never get enough of it.
I can’t sit still when I hear this side! Just gotta dance!!!
Stumbled upon this. .half way through it was added to my play list. My lucky day.
This is really good. Never heard of this bloke till now. I feel a purchase coming on.
buy his whole blue note set. you will not be disappointed
Woooooooooo!!!!! Now, this is music.
Well, nothing more profound than everyday jazz!!
Absolutely astounding solos bk KD and Joe Henderson. Got to be two of the greatest solos of all time!!!
This is cool, listening this in a dark room at night, with a bright window while staring at it drinking warm milk.

That upright bass guves me the visual of a beautifully shaped flaminco dancer just going away..wrapped so wonderfully in this rhythm
I love Butch Warren's playing on this.
The tastiest minimalism! 🎶
So nice to have the entire cut uploaded here. Thanks so much!
Lovely jass mahn I never thought another on his place the best he gives the best others serves love from south india
First time I heard of this was with Roy Hargrove and Crisol, they were on fire. Their version I believe is called Uno Mas
I was wandering who was on the piano because of that funky piano at the start and at 13:15. Herbie! It always brings a smile to find out it is someone great in his early years.
Wondering.
And, 'still' quite relevant, along with many of his contemporaries.
It is 19 year old ..Herbie Hancock

Truly a talented musician worthy of greater recognition.
Tony in usual fabulous form; pushing the heck out of the tempo.
6:09 so good!
Herbie is getting wild on the solo comps.❤
My dear Norman and I use to listen to this song a lot very good song
classic jazz, love it.
whowww... seriously why this album is not much known ?

KD is SOOOO good! Why don't more people know that?
Dave Braseth underrated
He Was A Damned Genius !
¡Esta canción la quiero en mi boda!
Kenny Dorham and Lee Morgan sound quite similar, I think. I love them both.
Purchased this one from the Jazz specialists shop in Liverpool- approx. ’69-70-still have it today - Cavern days but not for this great music!
I'm just discovering kenny dorham and he is a true master of the saxophone and he can run scales with rapadness..... Arthur Tillman
just fyi, Kenny was a trumpet player.
Nikos ....you had my respect from the first few bars !!! i subscribed immediately ! / Kenny Dorham - Una mas........... WOW !!!
Tony William's on drums!
Shit man. How quickly people forget. What a damn shame!
Thank you Nikos. Just what the Dr ordered.
Cool this sounds cool I’m playing it in jazz class
LOVE IT!
Good two stepper 😉 love dancing to some great JAZZ.
loving this
Classic stuff man on G O D
it killed me to find out herbie was only 19 yeahs old ...playing along side these OLD DUDES !?!?
Herbie was 22. Tony was 17. Joe Henderson was 25/26. Warren was 24, so it was the old dude Kenny playing with young cats. Get ur facts correct!
Ah hahahahahhhhhhhhh
DAYUM ok i got you ...but thanks to your info take it easy..I'm now two inches tall now..you...you
...you.......you.......
Punk !
(Just kidding)
Three listeners didn't want it one more time.
Now there are 116 of those Roberto Durans out there.
Perfect response.
@@terrymiller111 Now there are 125 of those Roberto Durans out there.
Kenny Dorham - Uno Mas..Thnx. Nikos.. great trumpet player /w/friends..
Una Mas!!
He Was Underrated !!!
Ok, second there this reminds of Miles and others thank you for including this wow never heard, awesome thank you!
Una mas!
So lovely
Dorham some say better than Miles. Like this track, fantasic personnel also.
ken braxton same level
that's what i just asked myself haha
Advait Thite ‘better’ doesn’t do justice to The musicianship of either players.
I think it's just that Dorham is so underrated.
Jazz Boogalooooooo !
thank goodness i don't have to drag out my wax to hear real music when i want to
Why , they don't have the Jazz Musicians on these you tube music to me this is insulting to the Jazz Masters who created this great impeccable music Art Form of America by Black American of the 50ies and 60ies when Jazz was at it's Best Form.
Superb.
...with a capital "S"
Smooth!
Way too good 👍
Herbie does not play that latin sequence on the paino like the latinos do. Still a great piece
Kenny !
Bob Saturday And don't you forget it!
Fire uno mas kenny&Herbie
Yeah Daddy...7#9!
Credit to WRCJ Detroit for introducing me to this awesome piece!!
Wonderful
