Rare classic footage of these two trumpet greats. Intimate jazz quartet with Carl and Bobby taking turns on drums ! www.trumpetworld.net for more info.
I was there. Carl told me about the gig and drove all the way from Anaheim. Now that Carl has passed away, this is nothing but a good memory of him. It was a great gig, btw.
My favorite part was thinking back on all the private trumpet teachers I had who yelled at me for fingering valves as Carl Saunders does - telling me if I had my fingers out straight, didn't play with my fingers arched with my finger pads on the buttons, I'd never have good technique. Well I can now tell them - BLOW ME!
I had a fellow student who was told to stand up straight while playing. He replied to the teacher: "Miles Davis plays like this too!" Teacher replied: "The day you can play like Miles, you can stand however you like. Untill then, u will stand up straight."
Carl has all the talent in the world, which is probably a detriment to him. Every solo he takes sounds like an etude. Run-on sentence after run-on sentence. Bobby plays actual phrases and melodies; Carl just flails.

5'00 Bumble-Bee bop :-) Great stuff - I just can't get over how great Carl Saunders is...
u r good im still taking classes at school and im now at symphonic class every time i hear your videos i get motivated
Bobby's time is impeccable! Love how he throws the emPHAsis of the phrase on his solo break that the drummer was even caught off guard!
The 'drummer' was Carl Saunders, I noticed. Right before he switched with Bobby Shew..
Wonderful 🎁 to ALL. Eternally..Vaughn 🎺
I just came upon this video of you Bobby & Carl. Great watching it. Lots of memories. Love, Irma Calicchio
Great Footage!Thanks!
¿En qué año fue?
cool drummer :D
Esto es mucica para mis oídos
At one point it sounds like the flight of the bumblebee
So this is they guy they named the mouthpiece after
Even the great Arturo Sandoval would acknowledge the skill and pure talent of both these guys.
Arturo is an equal not above them as much as you might like him.
