Benny Benack III featuring David Kikoski with special guest Veronica Swift. Alexander Claffy on bass and Kush Abadey on Drums. Singing Pennies from Heaven. - Hudba
With such people on the earth, life is still worthwhile...
David Kikoski must be the swingingest, most under-appreciated pianist on the planet. He's also fun to watch, kind of a hyper-caffeinated Gumby with a wild mane.
man, his comping is so swinging and in the pocket. plus those subs. damn.
Reminds me of Animal, from the Muppets.
he's been a regular pianist in the NY scene for decades. I saw at Village Vanguard about 20 years ago. Not under-appreciated at all. And you're right, incredible energy.
@@wlavin Exactly what I was thinking!
He was on FIRE THE WHOLE TIME the spotlight was on him and every moment was was pure joy. What a ride.
When she sings it feels like the big band era with Ella wailing with all the advantages of hi tech!
her agility and tessitura simply great...
Killer band! Veronica Swift is all the classic jazz vocalists melded into one extraordinarily gifted musician and singer.
veronica swift is so good, she never fails to impress me
Veronica Swift is such a good singer
The best singer since 1900.
She is such a talented artist😍🤩🥰😍🤩🥰😍🤩
I have been obsessed with this video for a week now. Lost count of how many times i've watched it. Also, the fill/setup at 4:05 is blowing me away everytime i hear it. Kush is Killin' it!!!
She's the greatest living singer, today, VERONICA SWIFT! OMG!!!!
Amazing band!
With Rotem Sivan on the corner
what a young, swinging group....and the drummer really knows how to punch with the group and push it along...wow!
Love her choice of dresses!!
Dave Kikoski is a bad mama jama!
Amazing to see musicians of this caliber playing in front of a coffee shop for tips.
David Kikoski........ How can I not love him...
The musicians and best in class! And Dave Kikoski is extracting an amazing acoustic piano sound from that Nord for sure!
This thing is swinging so hard I still can’t stop the replay after watching it over 20 times now! 🤪 Mad love and clout for all the cats 😎 in the band, especially the amazing extraordinary vocalist Veronica Swift!!! 🤩 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
That's what the world needs now: HIGH QUALITY HAPPY JAZZ!!! Veronica Swift, us Hungarian jazz fans should start a collection to bring you over here once life returns to normal. You're the best antidote to the virus!
david kikoski.......wow.....
That's Ella Fitzgerald sound!!! Great!
I LOVE VERONICA SWIFT!!! I think she’s the best vocalist out there, and I’ve heard most of them. Her sound is perfect. Such tasteful and talented jazz. A pleasure to listen to.
kikoski is super good !
That lady is beyond talented she is a revelation
Jazz on the pavement that knocks your socks off!! Great stuff all round, thanks!
That's about 5 blocks from my apartment. I need to walk by there more often!
Wow! Girl can sing!
This.is.BRILLIANT!! Makes me miss NYC even more
What a SWINGING group! If you haven't heard Benny and Veronica do "Social Call," check it out immediately.
WORLD CLASS PLAYERS !!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! Great playing from everyone & great singing - love the vocal impro
OMG, this is Absolutely stunning, What a voice!!!
David Kikosky slamed it out !
This is soooo good! What a bunch of awesome musicians!
On top of everything everyone has said she looks great in that dress.
Had the really good fortune of playing drums as a teenager with Dave and his father growing up. Many years of fun gigs!
I love her so much
never heard someone scat like that :D amazing
Haha try with George Benson😊
...or Ella Fitzgerald...
Every single musician is excellent and equally contributes to this swingin band. Wow! So good!
Don’t know if P will see this. But.. if he would, one day…
I always come back to the songs P and I used to listen together. They always bring me back to the old days when we were listening to this one over and over again in his room.
Anyways, great song. Beautiful memories w my love, P.
Kikoski! This just makes me smile
Wow! World class jazz musicians out in front of a coffee place! Man!!!

Swift X kikosky. This is the duo.

Insane vocals
Imagine living in a city where you are out for a walk pushing a pram and don’t stop to listen to this? I can’t believe it.
Their loss
Veronica Swift and the "Masketeers"!!...
David kikoski really is woohhooooo👏👏👏👏👏🥳
Thank you SO MUCH for recording this whole tune. This is one of my all time recordings and I just can’t get enough of it.
Benny's mask with the zipper hahaha I love it. Great playing
ILoveIt!......
david hs played with many of the greats and yes he is very underrated
So good!!!!!
Duelling basses… WOW 😍🤩😍🤩. This is a dream team! Love it!
I would come back here every month just for 5:00-5:10
That scatting was nasty!!! Reload it❤️
That’s 1,000,000 1/4 dollars worth of music conservatory and 100 years practice between them. They are playing on the street for tips. There is something wrong with this country.
Well. This was August 2020, this was the only show in town. We were all out having fun.
Yes obviously a lot of talent and practice ... also I believe all are children of professional musicians ... I know Kush's dad personally (a great drummer) and I think I read Benny is third generation ... his granddad toured with Tommy Dorsey ... so many great players out there but still a tough row to hoe regardless of the high caliber ... unfortunately only a small percentage of the general public really appreciates this kind of music these days
@@ricagudelo it might've well been Smalls!!!
Skillful and beautiful performance, love this 👍❤️
She owns it like a boss.
Love, love, love
Holy shit such outstanding musicianship all around 👏👏👏 bravo
Wow, just Wow
