[@solemandd67]

It's the immediate access to jazz giants like Cannonball that makes me humbled and grateful for the age of the internet and TH-cam in particular.

[@RonCarterBassist]

It's amazing to see so many old gems preserved online. What a wondrous age we live in...

[@courtly5982]

Sadly we would never be able to travel back in the 60s to hear it in person…

@@courtly5982but there are still plenty of great players now, so we get the advantage of seeing the entire history of jazz.

Hear, Hear !

Cannonball Adderley's sound demanded attention. He spoke to be heard. Legendary.

[@j_kickz3]

Cannonball Adderly , to me, is what Jazz Saxophone is supposed to sound like-raucous and on the verge of being out of control

[@tomgray8512]

I cannot understand why jazz is fading away. I first heard this as a teenager in the 60s and just knew that this was it.

[@dreadbos]

Its not fading away

[@turnitr]

It's not fading away, there are people my age who play jazz and I do too, I'm not that advanced but I'm learning it and I'm enjoying it a lot.
Btw I'm 24 y/o

[@SLokutaR]

Not fading bro

[@sheriff2539]

Cannonball was a master. Soul, technique, wicked sense of rhythm, phrasing, and timing. Always knows where the blues are. Takin’ us to church! Go ahead Adderley bros, take us all there.

[@jamesh2711]

Cannonball just killing it on that solo, one of my all-time faves.

[@danmcbmusic]

No joke he absolutely nukes it in one chorus. Crushes it.

[@jamesh2711]

@@danmcbmusic Really man, thank God for TH-cam! 🤩

[@gregdolecki8530]

My favorite all time alto player.

[@femgoo]

the Adderley brothers!! Nat and Julian! Nothing equals them!!

[@postatility9703]

Too often,Cannon's little brother was overlooked. What an incredibly individual player!

[@ericmiller6056]

Not just a great individual player, but also a great song-writer. He's the one who wrote "Work Song".

Warning: listening to this song on your way to work may result in a speeding ticket.
This is better than any motivational video in the world. 🎶💙🎶

[@joeyollie123]

This is, without a doubt, the most swinging band of all time.

ビバップで、ワークソングがかっこよすぎる。初めて聞きました。最高です。

Keep listening to classic jazz like this and you’ll find many connections to contemporary music and musicians. Very impressive, young scholar!

[@seunghoonoh2972]

Amazing just amazing 😍😍

[@ts7049]

このリズム感や肺活量だけではない。ビバップでここまで、ワークソングを昇華するとは。本当に、昔のジャズは凄まじい。

Luv it a lot 👏 #Prince4Ever always told #TheseRRealMusicians 🎶🎷⚘💜

[@huguesduchesne7057]

La classe astronomique de Joe Zawinul est proche du swing de Kenny Kirkland, mes amis :)Follow the White Rabbit :)

[@hamishmcfudd4355]

❤❤❤

[@fabricearias8508]

It's an Oscar Brown Jr song, in the classic LP Sin & Soul (1960)

[@92ninersboy]

Oscar wrote the lyrics - it originally was an instrumental written by Nat Adderley, Cannonball's brother and cornet player in the group.
