Stupendous all around and really love the sax!
Veronica and musicians make this a swinging listening experience!
I kept expecting to see Rick / Bogart walking in.
Simps in the comments are hilarious . decent version tho'
Hi, Mr.Ricky Alexander. Greeting from Japan. I've just started my own project JAZZ JACKS JAPAN which aim to make beautiful trad & swing-jazz music known to Japanese people. Your performances are truly awesome. Can I introduce your video on my Instagram? (Clipping your video shortly and put link to original video on UA-cam)
Wonderful, wonderful.
Great stuff!....are the glasses an 'in joke' ?
Why do you yell if you have no voice and no hearing?
189k views, 1.5k likes, and only 59 comments (mine included). People really don't know what good music sounds like!
Love the vintage suits =)
Martina now that's how to sing the tune. Trombone's my horn and that bone player can play!
Hell yes! That's how to sing it, your way Martina.
Great at 3/4 speed .
Wonderful voice. Martina is gorgeous!
Wonderful jazz.
Great job, guys!
This really is amazing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Just beautiful..
The guitarist plays rhythm as if it sounds drum. I don't know why he plays guitar solo . No rhythm while he plays solo and the solo is no good.
this slaps oh my god also is that piano smaller
Wonderful! Brought a smile to my face
Delicieux!
Good job on your solo! By the way, you are an awesome finger snapper!
Martina es maravillosa.!!!
Preciosa versión sólo faltó un solo del bajo.
Terrific. Thank you!
Superb
Great - very authentic sound, and you swing it !
👍👍👍👌👌👌🍻🥰🥰🥰🎩🎩🎩🎺🎺🎺🎷🎷🎷🎼🎼🎼
Looks like someone forget their glasses :)
Awesome singing and playing - loved the guitar solo! Where are you rascals playing next ? Greetings from Melbourne Australia.
I would like more of your posts. Let’s go!
So evocative of times gone by. Almost melancholic. I could and do listen to Megg all day
Great rendering! I like the sound of this band
Ricky’s nostalgic sax and her Sweet voice are enthralling.
Sweet Megg indeed!
A magnificent rendering!
What was I saying about Martina’s voice? … it’s even more magic and totally deserving of Duke Ellington’s composition talent.
I like this band and Martina da Silva’s great voice.
I can only restate what I commented in the previous post, saying that it’s a Great idea, the clarinet in the trio! And that I also like the competent piano leading the rhythmic section and the excellent drummer. I must add though that the rendering is deserving of Jerry Roll Morton, the composer of the tune, and the roaring 30s…
Great idea, a clarinet in the trio! I also like the competent piano leading the rhythmic section and the excellent drummer.
Someone should take the lead cinematography wise guys, this is film, right… sort of. A good jam session with undeserving video.
A revival. Of swing… enticing but also a bit worrisome socially wise…. I mean the 30s aren’t really deserved revival! I do enjoy the music though.
Beautiful voice!
