Wait...there's another organist who wears a turban???

Bertrand.

[Jim Alfredson]

Yes, Korla Pandit. He used to play a lot on the Ed Sullivan Show, I think. Here's a bio:

Sidenote: I hate websites that use white text on black backgrounds. It completely messes with my eyes.

Wow! Thanks SS... What a cool vid

[CJ Shearn]

Thanks! The only problem with checking out recommended videos is that once I get to Youtube, it is addicting and 2 jazz hours later, I'm wondering why it is almost 2 a.m. and I'm not asleep yet... I also checked out some Lee Morgan, Jimmy Smith, Freddie Hubbard, Benny Green, Maynard Ferguson, Stanley Turrentine.

Dude, I saw a Korla Pandit 78 once at a flea market. Has a little picture of his head on the label. I passed.

But now, actually having heard him, I wish I'd picked it up. Just for the label.

Yeah!!!! So, 12:30 a.m. in Kansas City, I think, equals 1:30 a.m. where I am outside of Boston! I loved the Jimmy Smith video with the Blue Note Big Band doing "Moanin'". What a classic! I think it was the Mt. Fuji Jazz Fest. I have a few other full-length videos from Mt. Fuji - all the highest quality of music including the Jazz Messengers edition with Benny Green, Javon Jackson and I think Bobby Watson was guesting at that time, since it was well after the Watson/Ponamarev, etc. edition of the Messengers.

I actually thought the Korla Pandit clip was very interesting. He was doing some amazing things on the organ. Very cool. I'd like to hear more from him.

Very nice, Jim. Is that John Hart the same guy who played with Jack McDuff later?

MG

[Jim Alfredson]

I believe so.

HAROLD LAND IS KICKING JIMMY'S ASS! Jimmy is really responding to Harold killing it...I don't think I've ever seen Jimmy pushed that hard by ANYONE!!!!!!
