Grappelli and Grisman play "Dawgma" and "Swing '39" on a 1979 episode of the Tonight Show. Sadly, I turned off the VCR after the last song and missed recording a Grappelli-O'Connor duet of "Tiger Rag" that they played over the closing credits. Johnny Carson's reaction at the end is priceless.
Stephane Grappelli: violin
David Grisman: mandolin
Mark O'Connor: guitar
Mike Marshall: mandolin
Rob Wasserman: bass

Saw Mr. Grapelli in the mid 80's at The Musician's Exchange in Fort Lauderdale...got to talk to him for several minutes after the 8 o'clock show. When he realized I was leaving he asked me to stay as his guest for the 11 pm show. He had the kindest eyes and mildest demeanor but when he played his violin pure magic filled the room. At 55 years of age today, that night remains one of the highlights of my entire life. "THE MAN WITH THE VIOLIN" as he was known was a direct link from gypsy tunes with Django Reinhardt in the 30's to Yo Yo Ma and Sting. He was also an amazing pianist. Pure genius !!!

When the show was still 90 minutes (which it was up until 1980), Johnny (or whomever was guest hosting) would regularly give extra time to musical acts.

@@greg4673 I still remember the show the day Benny Goodman died. Johnny wanted Doc to play a Goodman medley, but because Graham Nash was the musical guest that night, we had to hear a mediocre, forgettable song by him instead. I was disappointed that Johnny did not overrule his producer that night.

I played the David Grisman Quintet album "Dawg Jazz Dawg Grass" for an old girlfriend one time and she said something I've never forgotten, she said, "these guys are having some serious fun." In all my years teaching music I always told my students to have fun, because music can be serious fun.

This is a great piece of music history. Thanks for posting it Jim Stripling. What an extraordinary group of musicians to be on the same stage. I got to see all of these guys in various thrilling concerts around the Pacific Northwest and Vancouver, Canada in the late 1970s. Like a couple of the commenters below I was able to meet Stefan Grappelli and chat for a minute. Apparently meeting Stefan Grappelli is unforgettable to me since that is 40+ years ago. I also remember jamming with Mark O'Connor quite a few times at music festivals in the Pacific Northwest from 1977 to 1979 or 80 when I was a banjo player. Since I wanted to eventually have a social life and a girl friend I decided to switch from banjo to guitar (badum bump - a banjo joke, they are so easy to make).

If you watch the movie "King of the Gypsies" (starring Eric Roberts, Judd Hirsch) you will see Steph and David sitting around jamming in parts of the movie! They did the soundtrack for the movie.
