Ken;

Thanks for pointing out these videos. Wonderful seeing all these great
players, the explanation of jazz is one of the best I've heard. I agree with
you regarding Jimmy Cleveland who never got the public recognition he
deserved. The first 2 videos have Jimmy in the band but feature Benny Morton
who played with Fletcher Henderson and, later, with Count Basie. Jimmy
Cleveland was the soloist on "Posterity".
