Celia Cruz grave is beautiful. So elaborate and landscaped lovely.
Celia Cruz was a fantastic singer who I listened to and my parents would dance to her music and I mean dance😂. I was fortunate to meet Celia and spend time with her. Wonderful lady!
Thank you for taking the time to visit The Bronx. The Bronx is very underrated. There are so many lovely parts and Woodlawn Cemetery is only one. I trust you enjoyed your time. Thank you for the coverage it was great.
Wood lawn cemetery is a museum I visited all the time live across the street ❤
Anna Hyatt Huntington and her husband Archer created Brookgreen Gardens near Myrtle Beach, SC and their Moorish castle, Atalaya is still there by the ocean. Her husband was the stepson of Collis P. Huntington who founded the Central Pacific Railroad and the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. They were truly philanthropic and interesting people who were known for their kindness to their SC neighbors. Great video, I would love to visit Woodlawn! ❤
Wow!! This is a stunning cemetery the headstones a really lovely.
Greetings from Germany. I ❤ the Bronx and the Woodlawn. Thank you very much for the streaming.
Enjoyed this walk with you through Woodlawn Cemetery, Jordan. Beautiful cemetery, and so many celebrity graves there. I noticed that the gravesite of Irving Berlin and those around him create a piano keyboard. Thank you for the great video, very well done!
Gosh, what an amazing place to bury ones loved ones!!! I can't get over how unique and beautiful some of those headstones are!! The Huntington burial site is just breathtaking!!! Also, Herman Melville's and his wife's headstones are simply one of a kind as well!!! Jordan, again you take us upon a breath-taking journey!!! Thanks muchly for your time to give us the ultimate best of you!!! YOU R LOVED!!! Have a wonderful week with Katie and the wonderful Jawster...what a fabulous pup at heart he is!!! And lastly, Katie is as pretty as a picture...what a kind soul she is....I am so glad that you both found each other!!! BLESSINGS ALWAYS!!!
That Huntington tomb is amazing
Wow! Not only do I get to see the graves of some of my favorite musicians, but I also get some music history! I took some notes so I could go back and look up some of the people I did not know.
The jazz corner. This entire cemetery is beautiful and well kept. My mother is buried on Hillcrest right before you reach Miles Davis's Grave.
Celia's "Guantanamera" is one of the earliest songs I can remember, I remember standing outside to watch Duke ride by on his last drive to that resting place... my unk played with him back in the forties when he was 19
Thanks for taking us along, Jordan. Also, great Rodney impersonation.-Joe from Joplin, MO
👍😊🌞 Good morning! Thank you for sharing!
We went to see Miles Davis perform at the Hollywood Bowl. A few months later he passed away. Thanks Jordan for taking the time in putting these gravesite videos together. Always nice to see Jah’s sweet face riding in the car with you❣❤🙏🌹

I filmed this back in august
Thank you. ❤ Enjoyed it
Jordan, I learn sooo much through your travels. Your stories were once again amazing. Many thanks!
Thank you for coming to the Bronx and for doing this video. I go there whenever I get a chance as I live a few blocks away. There are many important people buried here, including Celia Cruz and other people, such as the mafia godfather of Harlem. It is a beautiful and peaceful cemetery.
I am having a birthday feast and enjoying awesome vlog😊 This is phenomenal Jordan

Yes, this is a huge cemetery! Some real music legends and other notables, thanks for taking us along Jordan. Hi Jah!
I sure hope you do a couple more, with your stories along with them, they're truly fascinating! I love that story about Cicali Tyson & Miles Davis! ❤️ You've done it again, Jordan!!! 👍👍
I liked celia cruz she was good i like her music and i liked miles davis he was good nice resting places for these performers good vlog.jordan vickie napa.california
27:51. I knew “algodon” meant cotton so I looked it up…Celia called her husband/manager Pedro “My little cottonhead” due to his white hair and mutton chops. 😊How sweet.
Thank you for sharing interesting facts for each grave you visited. What a beautiful cemetery.
Beautiful cemetery, and that has to be the biggest headstone 🪦 I've ever seen. Beautiful piece.
Olive Thomas! 💗 I've watched her silent films...which are wonderful. Her death was a slow horrific one. Lovely grave... Oh my! Geraldine Fitzgerald! Love her! 💪💗 Terrific vlog Jordan...thank you!
My name is Craig Dennis i watch your new videos all the time i in joy all of your videos all the time how are you doing today and how is your dog doing you have a nice safe rest of your day and you take care today👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I've visited that cemetery. I took photos of Duke Ellington, Miles, Lionel Hampton and King Oliver's graves.
What a beautiful cemetery, certainly full of the most famous musicians, artists, actors and actresses, ty Jordan for bringing me close to home. I am a fellow tri-stater and enjoy NY, be safe my friend🤗🥰🐾😎🎶
33"35 speaking of Duley Moore, i met him in Kansas City back in the early 90's, met him walking down the street downtown!
My dad Philip Pressimone and my grandfather Joseph Rosenberger are buried there. It's a beautiful place!
Great vlog, Jordan. Would love to see more of this famous cemetery. So, hopefully, you'll be back with a bunch of vlogs. Thanks!
I had never heard of Olive Thomas. She was very beautiful. Sad story. And, wow, Duke and Miles right across the road from each other.
Enjoyed it
Great video, and of course I love your little sidekick JAH❤
A excellent view thanks for all you do! We sure have been having a blast watching these amazing places you share with us in your travels Ty so much! Cheers! Luv&Peace Sean&family ✌🏼💫
Queen of the salsa, beautiful flowers, grave. RiP
Very fascinating vlog 👏👏👏
Mr. Freeze, Otto Preminger is also in Woodlawn. 🥶👍
Fabulous vlog. TFS
Great vlog....the cemetery visits are both interesting and sad. I will never get to see these in person..thanks for your info.
This was fascinating. Irving Berlin's grave so simple and beautiful. Thanks so much Jordan.
The John Harbeck Mausoleum is incredible. It actually had gas lighting inside! Look for one of the tallest and thats it.
Woodlawn has to be one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the USA. I noted how perfectly manicured those graves are---someone obviously tends then on a weekly basis. Great video once again from JTL and Mr. Jah. I wonder if any mafia dons are buried there?

…what a great question the answer must be yes ! Please Jordan do a Mafia graves edition !
Thank you for showing us the graves of these creative people. They gave us art to enjoy. Today is the day John Denver lost his life in a plane crash 1997. As a long time fan, this has been on my mind today.
Jordan I like this video is very excellent 👍 I like have a Merry Christmas 🎄 to you and your family
Olive Thomas was so beautiful, such a horrible that she passed. 💐
Thank you for everything

You make excellent utubes blessings and ❤
Herman Melville is impossible to read. I had to take a test on Billy Budd in HS. I waited til late to read it… he had single sentences that were paragraphs long. So I bailed. I pieced the story together from the multiple choice questions and PASSED! To this day I have no idea what Billy Budd is about. 😂😂😂
Jordan , ur great. Since your in the area,,Babe Ruth,Lou Gehrig, Jimmy Cagney in White Plains..
This IMO, is the most amazing cemetery in the US.
Surprised how humble Irving Berlin's grave is.
With regard to Dorothy Parker, I remember reading that Hollywood Moguls loved hiring husband and wife writing teams. Firstly, they paid the teams 25% less because they wouldn’t pay full price for the same household. Secondly, they felt that husband and wife teams would spend more of their free time talking about the script, e.g., riding to and from work, over dinner and breakfast, before bed. They considered that tremendous bang for the buck. Can you imagine? What studio chiefs took into consideration never ceases to amaze me.
Irving Berlin had some kind of piano that enabled him to change keys. It had some kind of device.
GREAT SHOW. GREENWOOD CEMETERY IN BROOKLYN IS FILLED WITH WHO'S WHO OF BROOKLYN. A BEAUTIFUL PARK AS WELL. MAY WEST, LEONARD BERNSTEIN, ALBERT ANASTASIA , BOSS TWEED, BILL THE BUTCHER (GANGS OF NY) CHARLES EBBITTS ,OF BROOKLYN DODGERS FAME & MANY MORE.
you may also want to consider visiting green-wood cemetery in Brooklyn both green -wood and Woodlawn can be reached using public transportation
Dorothy Parker was a mainstay of The Algonquin Round Table. Irving Berlin had a piano with a lever that transposed the keys.
Thanks again Jordan ❤❤. Your Vlogs are always informative 😍🇨🇦🫶❤️♥️🥰 Queer as a Billy 🐐 …that’s a new one on me 😂😂😂😊
Celia Cruz was well love around the world I have her DVD ‘s and her CD’s
Awesome video 👍🏼😎
It's always so interesting to visit cemeteries with you Jordan because you have tidbits about the personalities not known by everyone Thanks.
Loved this video. I love how you explain the ones you visited to help us know about them thank you Jordan
Awesome Jordan. This is where I grew up!

Yes, it’s a very nice cemetery. They designed it like a park. Many famous graves there. S.S. Titanic victims. Safe travels Jordan. ✈️🚙🗽🚲🛤️
That’s a very big cemetery. I was there once many years ago.
I’m pretty sure the Huntingtons are behind Brookgreen Gardens, near Georgetown, SC & Pawley’s Island, SC. Fantastic gardens with world class sculptures against the backdrop of coastal Carolina. Worth a visit.
Very interesting
I really enjoyed this video and visit. Your history is fun. Glad you are back from Chicago. Love❤
What a great opening shot. I love your videos so much. You're cheerful and make me happy I learn about people and places. Thank you Jordan. Say hi to K and Jah from me 🌿🧡
Fascinating!! Love jazz and it’s interesting to hear about artists, and to see the amazing gravesites!! Excellent!! Thanks!!

Hey Jordan, if you are still in town, go to Brooklyn Green Wood cemetery and visit the Wizard of Oz Frank Morgan. section 168, lot 14447. That lot is the Wuppermann family.
Jordan ,, be very carefull in the BRONX my friend ! I was born and raised there and I moved about 2300 miles away from there. In 1990 , its not a good place . its a great place TO BE FROM !!! good video my friend. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA......
500 acres +! You'll easily spend a day there. Pack a lunch. Well worth a visit.
Thanks for visiting this one. I grew up not far from Woodlawn but had no idea so many celebs were there! I also think a famous former mayor of New York, James Walker, is buried there.
Your one of the best blogger 👍
Another good one!
Thank you for showing the grave of Anna Hyatt Huntington, I'm sure her husband Archer Huntington is buried in there with her. Archer's step- father (most probable actual father) was Collis. Huntington, who is one of the "Big Four" that started the railroad back east. I work at the Huntington Gardens in San Marino, California. Also, thank you for including Celia Cruz's grave . My husband was Cuban, he always raved about her, we saw Celia and Tito Puente in concert at the Greek. My husband is probably dancing salsa with her or asking her to sing. May they all rest in peace. 🙏🏼
Thanks awesome video I enjoyed watching
