At the end of this concert, Duke makes a presentation of the main musicians, yet not everybody.

This is such high quality video. I always love hearing what new craziness Duke had in store for his arrangements of Caravan, and this surely does not disappoint.

Dear Duke! It's 50 years after you've gone. What a great bandleader, what a great musician!

I imagine this is what jazz listeners hear when they want to hear jazz.

[parkmontsouris]

Can you publish here the names of every musician in the band please? Thanks.

[GregJoshuaW]

It's too bad recording equipment and medium sucked so badly back then...

[tomelifeisjustonebig]

Not my tempo. *throws chair at drummer*

0:13 feels like "Bad dog no biscuits" from cowboy bebop (I know it's the other way around, but still)
