[Dixielandjazz] Donna Lee

[Eric Holroyd]

Here's a great rendition done in 1977 of Charlie Parker's 'Donna Lee' with:

Clark Terry
Ronnie Scott
Oscar Peterson
Nils Orsted Pederson
Bobby Durham

The tempo is 'el furioso' yet the head is executed perfectly.

And the solos are excellent.

As is the camera work - which all too often consists of views of the tapping toes of the musicians.

Kudos to all involved.
