The great Duke and his orchestra. Sorry but after Jimmy Hamilton's playing everyone else should quit(including our friend kenny... no...just kidding!) P.S: U can check the other version I'd posted too. A couple of days ago I've responded to Willy Crook's grandson's message and it was like this.... I can't believe so many people went crazy about this video. I've posted a 2nd one as good as this but seems not that popular. Anyways Don't know that much about jazz but i love this one too. Some day with time i need to look for more of these in my archives. Good luck Wilo People writes me about this particular video all the time.... I know that is a great great video but still not getting it why this ... Love it anyways!! Good luck for everyone out there!!
