Me too, a musician but took a turn into something else when I knew alcohol would get the best of me. Richard though I was born in 1957; given a big box of 78s when I was 3 or 4, played them on my family's old RCA like it was second nature to me. Died 1943 on HMS Thetis, to you it sounds nuts probably, but what stuck with me was the music I loved and love. Tuba Skinny I think you'll love: Joan Chamorro with trumpeter/singer Alba Armengou,especially the early band will give you that inspiration if you need it to play like you were young.

Their big band recording of Lil’ Darling, for example is one of the VERY BEST I’ve heard, student or professional! I do not think the epicenter of Jazz is now Spain, however. The most capable and innovative professional jazz composers, arrangers, and players are still mostly in NYC and LA, but of course, there are so many amazing musicians of all styles, including jazz, all over the world. The development of these fine students will continue and it will be very exciting and encouraging to see how they evolve and like all serious jazz musicians, how they put their own voices into their music!

This song has a special meaning for me and always brings memories of my childhood. I was born and raised in Yugoslavia. There was no TV programing yet in the country, so the only home entertainment besides books, newspapers and magazines was provided by a small radio. Radio dramas were popular, and one evening, one of those radio plays was on. The intro music was "On the Sunny Side of the Street". Since I was very interested in and receptive to music from my early years, I was immediately drawn to the sound and melody and somehow remember to this day this was the song played such a long time ago.

Joyfull music like this is an antidote to the times we live in. The trumpet player is quite good .

I know a lot of jazz musicians here in New York who have moved on to a whole different thing, but they must be looking at this and just saying “damn.” This is beautiful. As others here have said, the vocabulary and the tradition of American jazz is all here. But this has an extra element that we’ve been missing in America for some time: joy! Louis Armstrong would be wrapping his arms around these folks and kissing and hugging them tight. Somebody, I don’t know who, has to be the teacher/guru behind this. How do scenes like this emerge? Hard to believe this is just kind of happening by itself right now in Spain of all places. The playfulness, the happiness, the spirit. Just awesome. The little breakdown with the castanets that happens after the guitar solo, and the whole gang singing the lyric on the final chorus with their arms around each other. That tells you everything you need to know. These guys are on to something great, and they aren’t looking to the United States of America for permission or approval. Great video. Thank you for posting. It moved me.
