Swinging Swede Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 DUKE ELLINGTON - Perdido (1965) Oh my god, Paul Gonsalves is sleeping throughout the entire tune!! That's why Jimmy Hamilton after taking his clarinet solo also has to take the tenor solo... Quote
bertrand Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 I wonder how long it will take before the video of Steve Irwin's last moments shows up... Not that I will be looking. Bertrand. Quote

That's why Jimmy Hamilton after taking his clarinet solo also has to take the tenor solo... That is wild! That cat is MF OUT COLD! He doesn't even flinch during the sudden loud ensemble hits. Amazing. Quote

John Tapscott Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 DUKE ELLINGTON - Perdido (1965) Oh my god, Paul Gonsalves is sleeping throughout the entire tune!! That's why Jimmy Hamilton after taking his clarinet solo also has to take the tenor solo... Now that is hilarious. It's really bizarre at the beginning of the drum solo where you can see Gonslaves with the tenor in his mouth and totally out of it - as still as a corpse. Man, it's no wonder Ellington's was the only band Paul could play in. No one else would put up with a minute of this. BTW, who is the trumpet (cornet) soloist? I should know who it is, but can't quite place him. Herbie Jones? Quote
Swinging Swede Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 BTW, who is the trumpet (cornet) soloist? I should know who it is, but can't quite place him. Herbie Jones? Ray Nance. Allegedly Duke fired Nance due to unreliability. Gonsalves remained! Quote

Allegedly Duke fired Nance due to unreliability. Gonsalves remained! I love Ray Nance's face after he finishes his solo and twirls the horn! I can't believe Gonsalves is totally out cold! Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 It appears that the footage on YouTube is from this DVD: Duke Ellington - Copenhagen 1965 Quote
Matthew Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 I love how the trombone player behind Gonsalves is pointing his bell right at Paul trying to wake him up. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 Supposedly, from comments on the DVD page of Amazon.uk for that video, Gonsalves falls asleep several times during that show, only to wake up and blow incredible solos on certain tunes. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 5, 2006 Report Posted September 5, 2006 Witnessed an amazing Paul/Edward exchange in the early '70s. On stage, Paul cried and Duke embraced him. More later if anyone wants it. I think I have an audio tape of it. Quote
Ron S Posted September 6, 2006 Report Posted September 6, 2006 When I first watched that video, I thought Gonsalves was trying to do some sort of weird Lester Young impersonation. No joke! Quote

Nance is playing the Freddy Jenkins role at that point (and playing it very well). For proof see the clip of Old Man Blues from Check and Double Check. Quote
