That was insane. Musicianship of the highest caliber.
Seeing young Betty Carter and Wes Montgomery at the start of their careers with Hamp is a treat!
That 'd be Wes Montgomery on the guitar also
Yes sir.
Yes he is UNCLE WES 😁😁😁
Wes🤔🤔?

Bring this back, this is music!
Fabulous Hamp
Also the first and only footage, to my knowledge ,where you see Wes playing in a standing position.By the way, that solo is a killa!
Extravagant show!
Marvellows presentation of The jazz!
I SO wish l was a young man in those days, racism no withstanding. LOVE this music.
I tuned into this video particularly to see if Wes Montgomery showed up in it. He does. Who in 1949 would have imagined the young man playing guitar in Hampton's orchestra would go on to become the world's finest and most original jazz guitarist?
Good catch. His characteristic thumb picking is very clearly shown.
Edie Lang and Charlie Christian and Grant Green are jazz guitarist that have been written out of history! Wes gained popularity through its style of octaves and a style that has out lasted its usefulness and makes too much jazz guitarists sound just alike!
@@haywardmccullough2762 Eddie Lang and Charlie Christian certainly haven’t been written out of jazz history. Grant Green was under appreciated during his lifetime but is now widely celebrated.
Fantastic!
The showmanship of Hampton and his band is incredible! I assume these clips were produced for "shorts" at movie theaters. Their live shows in small venues must've been amazing!
WOW!! Respect for Hampton (and band and soloists & dancers) has jst gone up 1,000,000,000 % !!!!!!!!!!!
100% Amazing!
Yes, a very young Wes at 2:05!
It might be the earliest video footage of Wes still available today. Really amazing stuff!
And using that signature technique of plucking the strings with his thumb instead of using the standard pick.
My mother told me that they had hampton at the high school senor prom back in the day 50's. They had the money.
I remember seeing him the 70's when my parents "dragged" me to his shows during the summer outdoor events. I am thankful they did as watching this has borought back many memories of his great music. I now play it here for friends in my bar and enjoy having the young folks appreciate it n this day. Just takes a few songs and they are hooked to the greatness of this type music and what it meant to America at the time.
Wes Montgomery died in 1968.
Absurdo sr Lionel Hampton....meu Deus ...e que maravilha de Orquestra ! gratidão total
Totalmente espectacular
Outstanding short. Who IS the excellent tap dancer...the blues singer, the hilarious guy in drag, the adorable swingin' little kids? Glad to know the woman scat/bop singer is Betty Carter.
What a band and Hampton's vibes. Thank you for posting this treasure.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I heard LH band in Stockholm concert hall 1954 and on with new members every year. The whole band moved around the hall playing 😅and singing as a show gimmick! ❤Curly Hamner drummer together with Lionel Hampton! 14:32
Incredible! Wouldn't it be great to see something like this live!
Que Orquesta¡¡¡ Que swing¡¡¡¡ Que manera excelente de bailar¡¡¡ Que voces prodigiosas¡¡¡ Que manera fabulosa de tocar la batería¡¡¡ Lionel Hampton fue un prodigio¡¡¡ Muchas gracias a quien comparte este y tantos videos de estos genios del Jazz¡¡¡
Oh, Lord, what a show! I just came here to see young Betty Carter (evidently Hampton fired her 7 times in about 2 years -- she had a mind of her own) but this whole show is incredible and I have only seen some snippets of it so far. Hampton doin a million things, Wes Montgomery, Curly Hamner, Sonny Parker and Betty Carter, and those two tiny kids!!
I never knew this film existed.
Lionel and Gene K. Inspirational.
I love me some Lionel Hampton 🥰❤️🖤💚and his wife/manager Gladys 🥰❤️🖤💚
Maravillas y ecxelencias musicales
Damn! My people, I swear we just got swag going back many generations. Since before we got off the boat 😅😪
Vive Jazzz!!!❤❤❤😂😂😂
Absolut großartig!
Filmed in August 1949, and released that December as one of the "Name Band Musical" series.
Amazing...!
Sensacional!!!
Wes Montgomery plays a chorus on 2'08"
Hamp also discovered Dinah Washington
Fantastic piece of Big Bad History. Most no’s well over 200 BPM
this was cool af
Cute kids at the end.
❤❤❤😂😂😂
Young Wes Montgomery play Gibson L5
that's joe adams chatting with hamp who played husky miller in the movie "carmen jones"and who later went on to manage ray charles
Tell me that one trombone player wasn't verging on guitar feedback effects!
Paul Higaki. The first time I heard this blew me away. 😄😄
America has been very ungrateful. This music build American music
That's a really big band! I wonder how much each band member was paid. Hamp had to be making a whole lot of money to be able to afford to pay all those guys!
Indeed you have to wonder how much they paid all those guys in the big band era. We're talking a 20+ piece orchestra, plus vocalists and dancers.
I liced
This clip defies description.
1:21 - 1:25 Any idea what’s happen with those trumpet tosses???
It's just something the boys came up with,hahah.
I wonder what are the names of the songs are in this music short.
I'm wwondering the same thinG!
@@MissCroft2006 The only song I know in this short is Hamp's Gumbo which is the second-to-last song in the short film.
Am I trippin or is that an Asian bone player at 11:22?
Yep, Japanese-American Paul Lee Higaki (sometimes known as "Murphy the Irishman"(?)
What os the mame of the song at 7:20?
1. Air Mail Special/2.Robbins Nest/ 3. Hamp's Gumbo....not sure of the last tune.
Aаа наше шоу где?
I dedicate this vid to all Trump fans. (Satire off)
