5.0 out of 5 stars Uncut performances by jazz greats. A must-have., December 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Jazz Scene USA - Cannonball Adderley Sextet/Teddy Edwards Sextet (DVD)

As-is, this is the original 1962 TV show. This volume features two episodes- Cannonball Adderley's group and Teddy Edward's group. Great music and very creative camera work (which is a complement to the spontaneous music being performed) make this mostly-music DVD a breath of fresh air for those who want to see and hear uncut musical performances. The hipster-host of the show is quite amusing too. I am looking forward to adding future volumes of this series to my DVD collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cannonball's Yusef Lateef band and Great Teddy Edwards, August 20, 2004

This review is from: Jazz Scene USA - Cannonball Adderley Sextet/Teddy Edwards Sextet [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This selection from the Jazz Scene USA series is probably the strongest for pure music. Cannonball has one of his best bands with the great Yusef Lateef on tenor and flute and Joe Zawinul playing at his best. Of more intrest for jazz fans is the Teddy Edwards band. With Freddie Hill, trumpet and Richard Boone, trombone, the band plays nice arrangements of several of Teddy's greatest tunes. It's a rare chance to see this artist at his prime. It relates somewhat to the "Avalon" CD Fantasy released a while ago that still may be obtainable.
The whole series is worth getting for the pure music played as it should be.

Every sax student to pro player should see this video...Being a pro and sax teacher for 25+ yrs I know what I'm talking about! Get it! By the way, watch it many times as you will hear & see new things each viewing.
