Rahsaan Roland Kirk - The One Man TwinsTruly a great video. Rahsaan Roland Kirk is a hugely underrated figure in jazz. This filmed performance shows his tremendous talent; great performances, good camera work, one of the best live jazz performance videos out here. |
Jazz at the Smithsonian - Art BlakeyThis movie is a must for all Blakey fans. This was when Wynton and Branford Marsalis were playing with Blakey, and the performances were powerful & exhilarating. |
Buddy Rich: Jazz Legend:Part 1 1917-1970This video has some of the greatest vintage performances
of Buddy Rich ever filmed. The video is expertly narrated by Buddy's
longtime friend, Mel Torme. Mel certainly has the knowledge and class to
comment on the World's Greatest Drummer. If you are a drummer, you must
see this video. |
