Dizzy Gillespie performing two great pieces one of which is a hell of a version of his classic composition "Night In Tunisia".

I'm grateful this moment has been saved for history, for us, for me.

Wow! Dizzy could play trumpet in any style and make it sing! He could play bebop licks in any style and make them sound appropriate.

Yeah, in the back, Eugene "Snooky" Young. He actually talked to Johnny a couple times on the show. He told him that he had first played with Jimmy Lunceford. Then Johnny joked that Lunceford was the first musician on Earth. I'm impressed that anyone (Iolta) picked up on that. Lowando, thanks loads for sharing this with us!

That beautiful bass sound somehow came through on my 14" mono TV in the 70's and 80's!

Yeah, Diz, but Snooky actually plays the stratospheric end of the coda for him on Night!

So, "A Night In Tunisia" ends, and I'm thinking, "That is a great performance! I guess the clip will end now." BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! UH!
