Bill Watrous - Nancy with the Laughing Face (at the 1976 Downbeat poll-winners' show)

Bill Watrous performs 'Nancy with the Laughing Face' at the 1976 Downbeat poll-winners' show, accompanied by Chick Corea, Ron Carter and Billy Cobham. To the best of my knowledge, this performance is not commerically-available in any format.

Very nice combo with great players (OMG) a young and swingin" Chick and Ron Carter in excellent upright bass form...great to not only hear, but see Bill and Company after having heard of them, but having not seen or heard them when I became emersed in JAZZ in Middle school!. Thnx so muchh for posting this video.
