This is pure magic! That young fellow is amazing. Seems like he's heavily influenced by Chick's playing, too. And that call-and-response bit they did in Spain had actually been used by Chick a few times before, but for me it never gets old. Oh, how I'd like to be in that young guy's place... I will have to look up some info on him as I've never heard (of) him before.

One of the best music clips I've seen in a long time. Thank you so much for sharing, jazznut!!

P.S. Looks like Chick lost some weight since I last saw him at concert back in 2010.

P.P.S. I just learned that he's sixteen years old. Sixteen!

Jazz is serious listening music for me, something I can't have as background music,
or else I stop hearing it after a while, and I can follow guitar with pop radio while working.
Same as classical symphonies to quartets, even virtuoso soloes.

But it's December the 18th, here in Canada in the Niagara Peninsula,
and there's no snow, it's not freezing, and I'm still picking radishes and carrots from my garden.
I'm going for a bike-hike to get some jazz inspiration, new weather,
able to traverse wide marshes without getting wet, or seeing any bugs.
Am I going to type that it's nice having Niagara Falls to myself sometimes,
seeing as how American tourists aren't there any more sometimes? Maybe.

A local Ravi Shankar obituary said he recorded an album with John Coltrane.
Now there's some more Coltrane I want to hear,
and I already derailed my own train with Coltrane a few times already.
