Lets not forget Cat Anderson and his rampage on the Ellington 70th Birthday concert version of Satin Doll. Again, the version on CD is much cleaner than youtube.
I was at Concordia University when Jocelyn was. He was a monster then, and he's a monster now. tremendous lead player.
Lafleche Dore as well. just great. I used to sit and listen to Lafleche practice his CG routines at Vanier college. _________________ Schilke B1

Here's one of my favorites...a live version of El Gato. Not only Cat, but Clark Terry, Ray Nance and the multi faceted Andres Merenguito. Merenguito went by a variety of names over his long career, Andrew Ford, Fats Ford, Andres Forda. They look as if they'd just had a long travel day, but they're all in pretty good form.

I had a fairly decent performance with a screamer in the summer of 1986 I think it was. She was a paralegal from Walnut Creek, CA. Sort of took me by surprise along with the neighbors in her condo building who were all slamming their windows and sliding doors shut.
Sorry, I don't have a video to show.
Maybe she was screaming for help, lol...
I love when a post takes a fun turn, lol...
On a serious note, all those great Maynard performances and a lot of stuff Walt Johnson was doing, particularly in the 70's and 80's with his own band, with Louie Bellson, Lionel Hampton ( like a live performance he did at the Monterey Jazz Festival on Birth of The Blues, it was insanely awesome ) all fun stuff. _________________ Rich Wetzel

There are some other great examples of Arturo with absolutely fantastic playing in all kinds of styles and this is one of my favorite screamer performances by Arturo - with great chops all over the horn, awesome!
I like this one around 4:00 when the whole sections comes down _________________ Stomvi Master:French Besson:Benge
