I’ve never been much of a fan of scat singing, but in this case I definitely make an exception to that rule. And the other Mel on drums is just as classy and smooth as messengers Torme and Hendricks. I’m just surprised that I’m not familiar with the song, which sounds familiar.
Great - but it's ironic that on a blindfold test in the early 60's Torme said something like "I can't believe they could make a whole career out of Down for Double"! and here he is dong it with Jon Hendricks. Torme was great, but definitely opinionated.
Jon Hendricks + Mel Torme = HEAVEN.
I cannot stop smiling like a fool while listening to this. THANK YOU!
Three giants: Mel Tormé, Jon Hendricks & The Mel Lewis Big Band... It doesn't get better than this! RIP all three.
Talk about two masters at the top of their game!
Giants!!!!!!

Bee dooby dooby dooby dwee bop-de-bop, dooby dooby dooby dwee bop-de-bop.

Such a impeccable production and they can't effort to have a spare mic... Ok, just joking, this is wonderful.

Why couldn't they have two mikes? Much more effective.

hmm true, so weird... what's up with that?
Somebody forgot to get two...or surprise appearance?

Too bad they had to share a mic 🎙.
