Synopsis
Album Description
Recorded at the 1963 Monterey Jazz Festival. One of the grand architects of Be Bop, the master Dizzy Gillespie is here captured in a brilliant live set at the legendary festival. His enormous talent reached well beyond the jazz stageas he acted as an ambassador of jazz bringing America's only original art form to the World and had aspirations at home for the Presidency. Dizzy vowed, if elected, he would change the color of the White House and have Duke Ellington serve as his Secretary of State. Judging by the rousing round of applause at the end of this great performance I am certain he left with several thousand votes in his pocket! Band members are... Dizzy Gillespie-Trumpet James Moody-Tenor & Alto Saxophone / Flute Kenny Barron-Piano Chris White - Bass Rudy Collins - Drums John Hendricks-Vocal on "Vote Dizzy" Sleepy Matsumoto-Tenor Sax on "Vote Dizzy"
