Free!!

I was in China and bought these two dvds. If you want 'em, you got 'em.

They are not in clamshells, but come flat. Probably pirated copies, but they don't look it.

One to a customer please. These dvds play in US players, but I'm not sure about others.

First pm gets 'em.

A small bit of thanks for everyone here on the board!

The Genius of Joe Pass

Few guitarists in the jazz idiom have reached the level of virtuosity that Joe Pass established and refined throughout his career. His playing in group settings was flawless, but his true genius was revealed as a solo guitarist who could simultaneously play all elements of a jazz or blues tune - melody, rhythm, chord harmonies, bass lines and rapid-fire improvised passages - all with an impeccable sense of taste and style that wowed critics and listeners around the world. This video offers excerpts from various performances from 1962-1982 that capture the essence, brilliant technique and enormous talent of Joe Pass. In a brief interview segment, Joe discusses his guitaristic roots and his thoughts on his music. Joe Pass has inspired legions of players, yet he remains unsurpassed as the most genial jazz guitarist of our time. Running time: 115 minutes.

Memories of Duke

This musical tour takes you to the 1968 tour of Mexico. Some of the tunes by the immortal Duke Ellington are "Take the "A" Train," "Satin Doll," "I Got it Bad and That Ain't Good," and "Sophisticated Lady." ~ All Movie Guide
