I'm thrilled to find this. When I was a teen in the mid 80's, my piano teacher gave me boot legged recordings of Eddie Higgins shows, and took me to hear and meet him in Delray Beach. I fell in love with the standards the way he played them and tried very hard to play St. Louis Blues exactly as he did then, and did in this clip. Fond memories.
A very underrated American Master Pianist. Not sufficiently appreciated in his own country, but much loved in Orient, especially in Japan where he released a great number of very successful recordings, most of them on Venus Records. RIP!
My dad saw Eddie Higgins in Chicago at Yvette's in 1983 on a snowy afternoon. Bought me a vinyl LP of Dream Dancing and had it autographed: "To David: Best wishes and keep practicing!" I'm still practicing. That album made me fall in love with jazz piano at an early age. We got to see him together in Indianapolis at a Jazz festival in the early 90's. What a treasure. He is missed.
His artistry will never be surpassed, and he was also one of the finest people I've ever known. Thanks to CZcams and the many CDs he made in his later years, his music can live on forever. Many thanks to the person who posted this...
I'm thrilled to have found your video! Thanks for posting it. I adore Eddie Higgins recordings but didn't have the pleasure of seeing him perform live. Apparently live video clips of him and his trios are not common. They're in rare form here!!
DANG!!!! So mad that I missed his performance in Korea!!! (later subtitles are in Korean) I just found out about him few days ago, and was very disappointed that he passed away in 2009.... Thank god to all CDs and MP3s that we have. Your music would never die, Eddie.
I played the set after him at the Great Rivers festival in LaCrosse Wisconsin about 17 years ago. Talk about pressure. But what a great performer! A true talent.
great stuff - thanks for posting - wish there more of Mr. Higgins live though... seems like there is just this and autumn leaves - if anyone has other EH live, please let us know ?!@ sort of like Beegie Adair, but more upbeat in general is my first reaction [i'm a huge Beegie fan!!
Absolute !! Eddie and Beegie... occasionally, toss in a little Erroll every now and then just for fun, and BINGO !! @%* Holy Schmoley !! What incredibly, beautiful melodic and swinging music, they've treated us too !! Their gifts keep on giving through the years... indeed, they are "alive and kickin'" in that sense. Their legacies live on in our hearts ;)
I am still looking for the full version of the original WC Handy St. Louis Blues masterpiece with instrumentals and vocals sung in the traditional blues style. The Etta James version comes close, but the Bess Smith version is the full length version. Yet the Bess Smith recording did not survive the ravages of time on the recording itself. If someone knows of a remastered recording with vocals, please let me know.

나도 저런 할아버지가 되어야지 존멋...
최고의 할아버지
2006년 여름에 한국에 공연 오셨을 때 갔었는데, 전날 밤 샌 상태로 공연장에서 무료로 제공한 맥주를 한 잔 마셨더니만 공연 중에는 계속 졸기만 했네. 돌이켜 보니 너무 아쉽다. 그 날이 이 영감님을 가까이서 뵐 수 있는 마지막 날이었는데...
with my Sennheiser headphones, it's really an amazing surrounded and warm sound, full of bass!
They way it should be played ---------------great stuff
THIS'S THE VERY MUSIK OF ALL TIME-THE GREATEST JAZZ-
Это МАСТЕР - КЛАСС!!!
Прекрасный музыкант, жаль покинул нас....
Thank you!! WOW!!!!!!

He has something special ..
когда я слушаю эту музыку то молодею на 50 лет

Me too!
