Vancouver Vintage on YouTube
posted by Guy MacPherson
| Vancouver has a rich jazz history that often goes unnoticed outside the province. What little video I have (in the grand scheme of things) I've been putting up on YouTube for the world to see. It's a work in progress but if you subscribe at http://www.youtube.com/gmacp, you'll be informed whenever I add something new. As of this writing, I have 26 clips up there from Barney Kessel, Don Thompson, Chris Gage, Kenny Colman and Lance Harrison. Sidemen include Terry Clarke, Ray Sikora, Claire Lawrence, Bob Witmer, Stan "Cuddles" Johnson, Jimmy Wightman, Dave Pepper, and Paul Grosney. Take a look. More to come. Enjoy. The Don Thompson Six plays "Tough Talk" on CBC Vancouver's Showcase series from the early 1960s. Featuring Don Thompson on vibes, Claire Lawrence on alto sax, Ray Sikora on trombone, Chris Gage on piano, Bob Witmer on bass, and Terry Clarke on drums. Post comments in the Jazz Forum |
