can't believe this is honestly the very first time in my 70+ years I've heard Harry James do anything other than try to break a Kleenex tissue with his horn. Sad for me

The best version of this for so long. He's amazing.

Magnifique ❤

I prefer piano version by far this classic version is great but not my cup of tea 😎🖤

An incredible trombonist who besides having incredible technical ability, Bob Havens had a beautiful tone on the horn.

No one plays like he did.

Harry James & Ziggy Elman - the way a trumpet is supposed to Sound.

My dad was a jazz trumpeter and Harry James was his hero. My dad had a photo of me as a baby that was actually signed by Harry James, wishing me a happy life. He had it in his wallet until the day he died. My mom gave it to me and I still have it to this day.

Harry played with a greater easy than any other trumpet player I have ever heard. Mendez is close.

Complete package! Tone, range, technique!👏

Perfection!

Which movie please 🙏 I love the Harry James band

What a monster trumpet player... Excellent 🎉

The hard makes it great.

The trumpet is like _The voice_ everyone has their own and becomes a master at it. No one compared to Harry James 🥸🎶🎼👏🏾👏🏾🎶⚘️🍲🤗👌🏾✨️🎺

I've been cross referencing this version between some more contemporary versions by modern artists and Harry hits them all for six. Or out of the ball park if your an American.

This is it. It doesn't get any better than 'King James'.

essa musica soa tão bem! nem tenho palavras para descrevela

Anyone know what kind of trumpet harry is playing here? Along with mouthpiece?

The ultimate trumpet master!

No one even comes close

In the late 1950's, Harry was in Vegas having a drink with George T Simon, the musical reviewer for Downbeat magazine. Conrad Gozzo (who was playing in Harry's band off and on at that time) interrupted the conversation and asked Harry to loan him a sawbuck ($10.00) to cover part of a gambling loss (Gozzo was an addicted gambler). Harry gave it to him, and as he left, turned to Simon and said "there goes the best trumpeter in the world". Quite a compliment.

Wow, this is awseome playing and as well as the amazing technical playing, he has a superb tone. Sheer brilliance !

❤

That was my grandfathers favourite

WOW

Wow, & wasn't he married to gorgeous Betty Grable?

Wow

Очень необычно в исполнении то, что при быстром исполнении шестнадцатых, слышится каждая нота. Она округлая, наполнена тембром и настроением. Исполнение , по уверенности звучания с очень огромным запасом. Музыка от сердца, от души. Музыка в каждой ноте. Фантастическая артикуляция. Считаю, что это культовое произведение, которое должно исполняться ( в классе) каждым трубачем солистом. Это как концерт Арутюняна с оркестром. Однозначно это исполнение не превзойдено современными исполнителями. (Если есть альтернатива , сбросте ссылку) Спасибо за выложенное видео и возможность стать счастливее от этой музыки!

Always thought he was a very underrated trumpet player.great sound great technique. I know Arturo Sandoval always said Harry was a hero of his.

Great!

I played his published arrangement on KRFC Radio Amateur Budda Hour. Got to meet him at SFGoldenGate Thester ! Great Guy !! Yeah I’m old (96 Yrs)

le meilleur

Madness

At 1:04, the trumpeter behind Harry James can not help but look up and watch the brilliance that is happening.

Go on dlg__x <3333

quitting youtube. ads a rediculous for every video

I think I just had a stroke listening to this . . . in a good way?

America's secret weapon during WW2 ,.King James ! At 1:34 he plays an arban type segment using chromatics and accents on particular notes ,I'm learning that today ! All I have to do is dissect it one piece at a time and I'll add it to my repertoire of licks for future engagements .

He is good!!!

I remember in LIFEBOAT, Bill Bendix says to the guy playing a trumpet: "put some Harry James into it!"

what movie this is from?

xd

Harry James !! Un genio !! Irrepetible......

Best interpretation!!!!! Nobody can it play better

Caramba...que concerto...tremendo trupetista

Quarantine got me a new idol :)

Got to see him perform live at The Fountain in Belleville, NJ in 1977. It was a night I will never forget. I still have his autograph.

Wahnsinn!!!
