WOW! Getting my Billy Taylor fix! Thanks. In the late 80's my parents took me to meet him in some NYC club 'Rose..??' A Master AND a beautiful man.

We would call this the *Left Handed Bandit!*

I thought he had a stroke and only using one hand. Yea Billy. You got me 😉

Best spent 9 minutes and 20 seconds ever!

im pretty sure its the man i love

No dislike for a decade. Just as it should be!

Jazz Memes sent me here and I am so grateful

I hope you listened to it more than once? :D

Lol, I heard a bit of Bach in there. Just fantastic Improv.

Stunning.

It's so important to remember that the greatest improvised solos are not a series of fancy patterns dictated by chords (the Gary Burton school of teaching). What's important above all is a knowledge of the breadth and depth of the Great American Songbook--learn as many songs as you can--until you can identify the composer by the use of the bridge (Jerome Kern) or the intervals (Duke Ellington) or the continual permutation of the motif (George Gershwin) or the pervasive use of scales--major and minor--in all of the songs of possibly the greatest composer, Richard Rodgers. The movement from Rodgers to Coltrane then becomes natural and almost obvious, whether it's the scales Rodgers uses with Lorenz Hart or the far different scales he uses with Oscar Hammerstein.

What a magnificent solo…shades of Bach coming through there…

GENIUS!

The Man I Love

What is this song name?

The interpolation of Bach and Rhapsody in Blue is tasteless. This is supposed to be art, not a circus act.
