Dutch Cees Slinger Trio was one of the best rhythm sections in Europe - they could (and did) play with anyone! Bravo!

There is one, I believe it’s out of print and/or in limited circulation. It’s called ‘But Then, She’s Betty Carter’. It was a made for TV documentary in 1980.

One of the greatest musicians this country has ever produced & like so many of her peers- those in her home country can only now witness visual evidence of her genius 50 years on only thanks to the many countries around the world who had the audacity to actually film America's greatest contribution to the world. Betty Carter, the definition of complete original, innovation, gorgeous, all time band leader, and a continuous inspiration for those artists who dare to step out on that edge of endless creativity. Thanks for posting this as while I have live recordings of hers covering a 4 decade span give or take, I was never blessed to see her in person. As always, the one of a kind music she left behind lives on.

Hello MRnewkTrane: I agree with you totally. Betty knocked me out from the first time I heard her. I am so sorry you were never able to see her live. She used to come to London every year or so, because of that I was able to see her at least 3 times in a small jazz club (Ronnie Scott's) and she was always stupendous. I miss her. D

I agree with you 100% and couldn’t say it better! She was the greatest, jazz singer! Even Carmen McRae said there was only one jazz singer and that’s Betty Carter. I had the privilege of seeing her twice and the second time I saw her I talked with her for at least 20 minutes at the bar. It had the privilege of hearing her thoughts about using young musicians, and what she demands from them. This video was especially astounding to me because of her being in 1968 and her singing the way she did even back, then is definitely a new frontier and the new way of singing this music!

WHATTT ? She was ezy to catch, constantly touring all over. Saw her thrice, 1st in Stockholm 6/85, a nearly 4hr gig till 4am or sth, without a break. Incredible feat. Fasching on Kungsgatan. read my comment above, just put up. Also got into her hotel room 7/96. Autograph on her bare shoulder on the cover of her early ABC-Paramount lp, to my 1st name, correctly spelled. LIFE .... & death ......

The trio can barely keep up with her, and they don't know the changes to "Thou Swell."

She was often a challenge to the musicians - she knew exactly where she was in the song but they weren’t sure.....she was TOO extraordinary.

@@kateswadling It's fascinating to see how much she is teaching the other musicians about jazz feel and how to swing, something they're approximating very well, but not quite achieving.

Come off it, man! This trio did a great professional job despite having no music - there's nothing wrong with their changes to "Thou Swell", perhaps you need to check you ears.
