I found this record of Black Orpheus when I was 15. Brought it and my record player to college. Every night I had strangers who became friends who wanted to hear it. I am now 72. Still love it....best album ever.
Charlie was the unsung hero of the Bossa Nova craze in the US. When he discovered the sound in Brazil, he made a bee line to Stan Getz, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Realmente é surpreendente, e enlevante, ver esses gringos brancos tocando um samba-jazz tão originalmente brasileiro, respeitando a origem da musica mas dando uma característica própria. Orgulho do meu país e da nossa musica, e encantado pela universalidade da Música como forma de arte.
Byrd was just incredible. Was lucky enough to see him perform many times and exchange a few words with him once in a small club. A unique guitarist and one of the very greats.
***** Nothing much, I caught him catching a smoke between sets, I said how much I enjoy the show, he asked me which piece I liked the best, I said "Body and Soul" which was unbelievably beautiful.
@@myinnocentdevil I had the privilege of seeing Charlie a handful of times in a little jazz club in Lake Buena Vista outside of DIsney World. It was a great club with A+ acoustics. This place had a great, GREAT house trio (piano, bass, drums) and Charlie would come there solo, as he had a great rapport with this trio. A woman little younger than Charlie at the time (1979) she played eyes closed and lips mouthing the notes she was playing...sexy. Charlie began to notice me and my girl sitting front at every set, and he nodded to me. This man is the reason I took up fingerstyle guitar, so I was knocked out. I had brought his latest album (BLUEBYRD) and between sets he very nicely wrote a message on it in a lovely script...I would not part with it for anything. He also, and he'd not played this the other times I'd seen him, played "Carinhoso"...which was on the album he just autographed. And, he gave me a secret look. Charlie did not typically peer at the audience, so it was, I was sure, no accident. To call Charlie Byrd a gentleman would be an understatement. A crushing blow when he died. I have all of his albums which I obsessively collected while he was still with us...garage and yard sales...records you could not find anywhere now...just the later ones on CONCORD Label. But gems like "The World of Charlie Byrd" double album...forget it. The vinyl stores, the few that are left, will probably have them, but not at the 2-5 dollar range that I bought them at. If you run across a Charlie Byrd album-- GET IT.
I love so much this outstanding guitar player. I discovered Charlie Byrd in the mid-sixties, just after the beginning of the Samba craze ('Jazz Samba'), and his Blues Sonata accompanied many hours in my youth!
Charlie Byrd was a real inspiration to me when I was young and in the classical guitar programme at university. Even though I didn't play jazz, I could appreciate the tremendous level of musicianship that went into his concerts and especially how energetic his playing was considering he was already an older gent at that time.
It's magnifying to see a group of man being passionate to what they do. All those atmosphere, rhythm, jazz, mojo, excellence, professionalism, art!! It gives you feeling of being co- with them as a listener whenever the hell you are.
Llegue por el azar, pero que fortuna, llevo escuchando varios videos de Luis Bonfá, y me fascinó, un genio de la musica, y nunca lo habia escuchado. Gracias a la hermosa musica de brasil
Chuck Redd is great! He's a brush artist who knows how. A great replacement for Bill Reichenbach. A quote attributed to Chet Baker is, "It takes a pretty good drummer to be better than no drummer at all.” Charlie Byrd is still one of my favorites. Nice to have a brother who's a bassist and knows all your nuances.
I’m not saying Mr. Redd is not a great drummer. I’m just saying that his rhythm in this song is not samba. I believe he could have tried harder instead of letting it go.
We saw him at Jazz Alley in Seattle with a couple from Chile in the mid 80s. I approached CB at his table with his friends during his last break of the evening and I think I said, "Some folks from your home away from home want to meet you - Chile." He was gracious and called them over to say 'Hi'. What a great guy. I rember that he played a very moving version of Villa Lobos 1st Prelude for Guitar. Full of feeling, better than most of the classical stars...
Incredible mix of musical taste and virtuosity. Innovative and flawless performance from giants of music (kind of a sterile review, but the piece moved me to tears)
No Luiz Bonfa in this video, except Samba de Orfeo is Bonfa's composition. Great interpretation, though. Check Redd seems to still be alive. He became an internation star after joining Charlie BIrd. Thank god for BossaNova.
En Enero 1968 escuché el precioso álbum de bossa nova : Stan Getz, Joao Gilberto, Antonio Carlos Jobim, y despertó en mí el cariño por el compás melodioso de la bossa nova, y me adentré en conocer más a fondo de sus orígenes de las composiciones de samba , comparsas de carnaval , batucadas . Y aprecie el film Orfeo Negro, Luis Bonfa en USA , Ary Barroso , Vinicius de Moraes, Astrid Regina y con el fondo de Samba Saravah del film francés un hombre y una mujer. Y hoy , la guitarra pasmosa de Charlie Bird
Fantastic and what a fine bass player his kid brother was. It would be interesting to find out which of the Duke's Places this was recorded in, which the year and whether it is still used as a jazz venue. Because of the quality of the filming there must be other clips from this gig.
For some reason this reminds me of "Maria" from a band called Bon Entendeur. It's a really nice French song and I recommend you listen to it at least once
My Dad had a jazz band background In the Tidewater VA area and knew Charlie Byrd~in fact I used to confuse Charlie Parker with Charlie Byrd!! (when very young)
I could shoot myself every time I hear the inimitable Charlie Byrd. Back in the 1970's my brother Bill owned a jazz club in Buffalo NY, and during a two-week gig Byrd came to Bill's house for dinner. He, of course, graciously agreed to play for us after dinner. I'm an OK amateur guitarist, and now I'm sure I could have held my own, doing something simple with him, like Carnaval, and established bragging rights forever. I was frozen with fear and lack of confidence. Now that I'm older, I'd ruin his night in a minute. How stupid...
After attending a concert by the great Italian flat pick guitarist Beppe Gambetta last night memories of my favorite guitarist Charlie Bird motivated a walk down memory lane. I came across this great TH-cam post that combines many favorites; movie; song; musician and composer. Thanks for the post -- if I may ask where is this clip from??
I found this record of Black Orpheus when I was 15. Brought it and my record player to college. Every night I had strangers who became friends who wanted to hear it. I am now 72. Still love it....best album ever.
This was recorded in 1984
Elena: This music is eternal. It brings me happiness for ever. And I am now 78.
That is so cool. Music brings people together. I wish I could make new friends just from listening to good music hehe. Maybe someday again!
@@twinleaf3076 The songs are from a movie called Black Orpheus, and a few of these songs were used in it
@@twinleaf3076 black orpheus is very old

Don't forget the incredible Walter Wanderley too!

After flamenco, I adore brazilian music, pure sentiment, joy, and expression
After many years, I always find myself back at Brazilian Jazz, and I am more than happy with that.
I'm sure you've heard of Arthur Verocai then? I bet the answer is yes. I adore this genre from a different time so much ❤
My love for this music will stay with me until I die and it's up to us to introduce it to upcoming generations. Get them while they're young!
I feel very privileged of having seen live during a concert in Monterrey México some 30 years ago. It was an astounding and memorable performance.
un verdadero privilegio.
Mierda, soy pobre y no puedo ir a esos conciertos
@@emmerick0
No llore chingon 😆
Momentos como esos son los que uno se lleva, que privilegio haber estado allí, escuchando a este gran músico virtuoso de la guitarra.
I am so jealous. Just watching footage like this gives me an electric inspiration. Amazing playing

whoa...what did you ask him??

Came here from Adam Neely's video about castaways.
Me too hahahah

Loved this melody since I saw Black Orpheus many years ago. Still do. Thanks.
Black Orpheus, from the Matrix movies, I remember him
The most beautiful song ever!

Beautiful song by Luiz Bonfa. Beautiful interpretation. Greetings from Brazil.
Outro ícone brasileiro que ganhou mundo interpretando a nossa música. Um virtuose a ser reverenciado pra sempre.
さすがチャーリーバードさん
素晴らしい演奏です
トリオのとしてのアンサンブルも見事!
クラッシックスタイルのギターを伝統的な奏法によるもので映像で見て感動しました
アンドレス•セゴビアのレッスンを受けた方なので結構な年齢でもシッカリとしたテクニックに裏付けされた素晴らしい演奏で感動しました
アレレレ〜〜〜〜〜？？？？
僕の知ってる ”お祭好き”の吉田さんかなあああ？？？でも名前の字が違うなあああ〜〜〜〜。。。。（マアいいや）
そうですね、演奏も素晴らしい、フットレスト利用してこのてのジャンルは僕は初めて聴きました、
やはり理にかなってるのでしょうね。
素晴らしい音と音楽で心地良い時間を過ごせました。
Exquisite. Priceless. Wonderful.

It being understood that Bonfa isn't there. He is the composer (one of them).
Demais a música brasileira!
Where does this guy come from! He is a musical ANGEL, come from a heavenly realm, I love and admire him 🤩‼️
Sublime , fantástico! Bom de mais!
Incredible mix of musical taste and virtuosity. Innovative and flawless performance from giants of music (kind of a sterile review, but the piece moved me to tears)
Fantastic trio!
Charlie Byrd, one of the greats ! r.i.p.
Bonfa deserves to be up there with Gilberto and Jobim among the pillars of Bossa - maybe he is, shit, what do I know.
Umberto Colerto, the trinity of bossa nova.
I would add Baden Powell too
HE IS THERE FOR SURE...
Some would add Vinicius de Moraes to that list.
go for it Jona, it's all ours, yours, mine, & everybody else's !
Simply glorious..... thank you for posting.
Dear friend and I surely miss him.
Samba is incredible...It touches me as hypnosys.
My God that's so crazy violinist, wonderful!!!
Fantastic. Truly Awesome performance
I think Byrd was solely responsible for exposing this genre of music to the ears of America. Love him for it.
Luiz Bonfa, Astrud Gilberto, Stan Getz, Sergio Mendes and others also were at the fore of introducing bossa nova to the US.
No Luiz Bonfa in this video, except Samba de Orfeo is Bonfa's composition. Great interpretation, though. Check Redd seems to still be alive. He became an internation star after joining Charlie BIrd. Thank god for BossaNova.
Thanks. Congratulations of Sao Paulo - Brazil!
as remembered, first beauty, love & longing in song
Gran maestro de la guitarra, creo que ya no hay guitarristas tan buenos para tocar las canciones de Brasil como fue Luiz Bonfa

Brothers Byrd and Redd. Amazing trio!
With a little bit of Django Reinhardt thrown in! Love it!
Quem sabe, sabe meu filho! !!!
Lindo demais! !
Straordinario...grande chitarrista!
Legendary masters !!! Imagine it how it sounds on a baroque lute.
Simplesmente EXTRAORDINÁRIO !
This is so Incredible :)
Fantastic
Con este dambsa comenzo un romance eterno, con mi amado Brasil, ya hacen mas de 50 años.
I've just gone from Arcade Fire to Charlie Byrd...the power of music !
Pan de leche
Nível máximo de toda técnica, espetacular!

WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From a mad keen 75yo Aussie fan.
Chuck is very good at playing vibes,as well.

Bravo 🙌 ❤ so good
el swing de charly inigualable
Saw the great CB in Seattle at the Penthouse club on the waterfront mid 60s.
Golden Latino tune
My favourite song
Charlie Byrd, Joe Byrd, Chuck Redd.
Has there ever been a more romantic song than Samba Trieste?
joe byrd is a soild bass player and tight bass solos
Glen Boyle Isn’t he the brother or son?
@@liamwatson5125 Joe is Charlie's brother, who died in 2011.
Os gringo amam a música brasileira...
Si
Bravo!!!!
Charlie Byrd un buen guitarrista. En la presentación dice "Luiz Bonfá & Charlie Byrd. Aquí sólo toca Byrd... ¿Dónde está Bonfá?...
En la composición.
certero, como dedo en el agujero, jaja

Fabulous !
Cadê O Luís Bonfá? Só Tem Sua Musica
Amazing
Perfeito!!!
My Dad had a jazz band background In the Tidewater VA area and knew Charlie Byrd~in fact I used to confuse Charlie Parker with Charlie Byrd!! (when very young)

Uou...muito obrigda com shared emotions. Musica
Te pasaste ídolo!
Esses que não gostaram, acho que queriam que ele tocasse de cabeça prá baixo.
He was one of Jose Feliciano understudies ...r.i.p.
Maravilhoso!
