Now that's how a chromatic harmonica is played! No doubt Toots was a Maestro! Toots played with soul, swing, & even a sense of humor. Most of all he played from the heart. RIP Toots! ~Greg G. 🎵
Just love it,.....they may be gone ... (sad) but thevachieved so much ... wow!!! how much did you achieve ? well if you tried like I did, then congratulations
I was looking for this particular song & this was the only live version I could find . I love Peggy Lee . Had never her this before . What a joy ! Her phrasing , subtlety is sublime ! And as for the harmonica .....Wow !
Over the years when my wife and I have gone to see singers and musicians if someone we see is "great" we say, "That's professional show business!" This performance is "Professional show business." They are having a lot of fun and letting us in on it. Toots is a great musician and a gentleman. Peggy was a great singer, songwriter (check her out on Wikipedia), broke in with Benny Goodman's band and... a very earthy and gorgeous woman. Great video - thanks for posting!
Sorry Joe but I’m with Steve on this one. They are being Professional and they are encompassing their watchers and listeners. Before I read your post Steve and after thinking what a great performance, my next thought was how they brought their audience along with them. Oftentimes, though I detect it more in ensemble comedy, the participants are more interested in each other than the audience. This is meant for us as well as them.
Het lyrische impromptu & de sierlijke spitsvondigheid waarmee Toots op twee stukjes ijzer & een houtje zichzelf rondom de aardbol blies overstijgt het ongelooflijke . . . Peggy Lee . . .' First Lady of Style' . . . Alle twee samen was een cadeautje van de Schepper aan Zichzelf . . .
What a darn shame that two absolute wonderful performers have "just got" to camp it up and think they're being funny when all it does is detract from their talents and skills. You, Lee and Thielmans, are NOT comedians...you are FANTASTIC performers...do what you do best.==>PERFORM!!!! Shutup with the silliness and lay it down straight. Leave the comedy to Eddie Murphy and Rodney Dangerfield. What a waste of what might have been a precious moment.
Joe Lee Bush What an unhappy soul you are. By the way, what have done, musically speaking, that people will, speak well of you now or, one day, speak well of you, when you are dead and gone?

Nobody can play the harmonica like Toots did. no one!
Giuseppe
Milici
Nobody played harmonica like this guy and I don't think somebody will ever play like him.

Amazing voice and accompaniment - no bloody auto tune available or needed in those days.
Wow. Classic.
GOD knows how much we miss her!
Toots un genio assoluto dell'armonica. 👏🎶
True. True. True.
"Musical genius" also great on guitar and whistling e.g. "Bluesette"
What an absolute treat; Peggy Lee and Toots Thielemans. Thanks for posting this gem.
that's why Quincy said: "he makes an harmonica sound like a saxophone" R.I.P
The boy's still rootin' 'n' tootin' at age 90! Go Toots!
Beauty, genius, musicality. Head shaking!
Thank you Toots & Peggy. I love this and still listening....
Virtuosismo, sensibilidad, humor y creatividad con la harmonica.
The greatest.
I just watched his 90th anniversary concert. Nice to see him so young and happy. RIP Toots you are still tge best.

They're "not letting you in on a thing" bub. They're loafing.

Awesome pair!
Toots made his metal a long time ago. We love Toots.
Peggy is so wonderful
She was the Best
Согласен с Эриком Нильсеном - очаровательная пара крунеров! Спасибо за память о больших джазменах...
Increíble
what a sexy woman,i love peggy lee's work.
she just has to stand there and comes over so natural.
Aula máxima!
SUPER!
@aerospacepat I'm glad you've enjoyed it: having the whole clip available was the point of uploading it.
Magic! 🤣😂😅
Thank u so much for posting this! I've wanted to see the whole performance for a long time! How did you get it?
@3:17 I can hear something that recalls to me the sound of Oscar Peterson. Am I wrong?
I honestly can't recall but most definitely it was from a Russian video website. Thanks for your comment.
No offense to the more popular, viewed video, but I prefer my solos extended!
What year is this from?
That’s what I would like to know. Toots wasn’t grey yet, so I guess somewhere in the 70’s?
Toots0:44 :very dangerous ...hahahah

The captions need help. How can I help?

Gewoon prachtig, een groot virtuoos met chromatische mondharmonica. Ook Peggy Lee is groots.

was I alone in expecting anticipating Peggy Lee to sample his mouth organ? oops! that didn't come out right!
Hahaha! Well... it is the original "dirty song."

Good music is actually fun... Joe lee bush will never know that no matter how much he tries.
Joe Lee Bush What an unhappy soul you are. By the way, what have done, musically speaking, that people will, speak well of you now or, one day, speak well of you, when you are dead and gone?
