RIP Frank Foster. One of the true greats - whether that be saxophonist, composer or arranger. And a thoroughly decent man. God's speed, Frank - and thanks for all the entertainment. It'll live on.
RIP,Mr.Foster. Thanks for all the music.
Just learned that one of my oldest friends in Jazz, Saxophonist and arranger-composer Frank Foster passed away today. He is best known for his work during different periods with the Count Basie Orchestra as both a member and musical director. R.I.P. Frank Foster - September 23, 1928 - July 26, 2011
As tight a band as you will ever hear! That was why this band was Frank Sinatra's favorite band to sing with! Frank Foster does a great job of getting dynamic control out of this group! Super! Just love listening to them! Love that April in Paris!
I had the pleasure of seeing Frank Foster in person while I was in undergraduate school(Central State University, Wilberforce, Ohio, where Mr. Foster also attended), and I really enjoyed the clinic he did!!
Frank was the man!
Frank, you tried to teach me to play chess, I was a total washout. Thanks for the memories. One of the nicest gentlemen I have ever had the plrasure to meet!!!
Damn! Frank Foster is in "beast mode" here! Love that rough tone as well! Great soloist, arranger and composer!!
Rest in Peace, Mr. Foster... I'm really sad to hear he's gone now, since I just really found out more about him and his music in the past year after a research project for my major classes. Such an awesome player, composer, and leader, and such a huge influence on a lot of people. He will be greatly missed.
Love this video! RIP, Frank Foster. Got to see the Count Basie Band a few times and always superb.
I AM SO SAD!!!! I haven't felt this sad about a music giant passing since Oscar Peterson. RIP FRANK FOSTER - A TRUE MASTER MUSICIAN!
Blimey,this is really great tenor playing
All I wanna say aparxa is thank you ,thank you ,THANK YOU.
Frank was fierce! An amazing musician who never really got his due.
It's My Dad!!!
Wow, I've never seen this. I was subbing on 2nd tenor then, now I'm playing the Lead Alto chair. This is something.
I wanted to ask you if you played with Kenny and you have! I played in Vegas in the early 70´s with
Kenny and he only played baritone. After I left Vegas in 74, all of a sudden he is a tenor player
with the Basie Band. Great player and beautiful cat. We ran into each other in New York when I lived there from 78 to 83. The Jazz world is or was then, pretty small
after all.
IT brings back memories of the Albert hall I was lucky enough to this great band there with the superb Ella Fitzgerald I night to remember there nothing like them now THEY WERE SUPERB.
I aw that band on that tour! Ella had Tommy Flanagan, Keeter Betts and Bobby Durham. Al Grey, Lyn Bivano, Butch Miles, Jimmy Forrest...what a killer band that was!!! and what a night!!!
Great saxophonist with full orchestra, I had an opportunity of seeing live Foster a few years ago here in Uruguay with Elvin Jones. It's a shame not to be in use and see all that big move jazziatica.
Fennomenalis !! Koszi a feltoltest.
I'll say it again, the man kicks ass!
Lovely solo of Frank!!
extraordinary, legendary!
Awesome playing Frank. And nice suit.
RIP, Frank.
Espectacular!!! gran músico Frank Foster, y gracias por mantener viva la llama, que nunca se apague la figura enorme COUNT BASIE!!!!!
Great sound and good video too!
R.I.P. Frank.
The man was a monster. I was privileged to have studied with him for four years in graduate school.
I missed the privilege.
Great
Kenny Hing on tenor!!!
How pleasant to see the legendary Kenny Hing
THAT MAN WAS NOT PLAYIN GAMES.
Harder than heck to find, but Joe Williams, in a black tux on the cover, with Frank Foster and CB band is the best!
Wow, how did you come by this????? Nice to see this...I've never run across it before:)
George Caldwell on piano. Buffalo, NY native.
The Basie Band at it's best in the 90's, with the genius of Frank Foster. The only hard part to swallow has to be the excellent drumming... ruined by sounds so similar to an echo from a tin can.
Foster est certainement avec son Basie Group, la façon la plus saine d'accélérer des titres déja arrangés. Pourtant il faut se préserver de se laisser emporter par le tempo rapide de nos jours, quand on sait, en tant que jazzman que le rythme est difficile à maîtriser quand il n'est pas férocement maintenu ! ou si le batteur n'est pas excessivement rigoureux, et qu'il se laisse emporter. Ici, Foster revient à des tempos plus calmes un titre ou deux après son petit déluge de phrases, et c'est très bien musicalement en concert.
The band is swinging all the way. That's the way it should sound. T he drummer is right on top of it, not like Speedy Jones playing catch up on the other videos. I miss the calf heads where the plastic get a metallic sound. But Frank sounds great and the band is cooking!
なかなか、いいねぇ～！
Ask your dad if he's looking for( another) or extra tenor player for his orchestra. If he says yes please lem me know as Im ready now!
SCOTTY BARNHARDT!!!!!!
