That's getting into what's happening in the music around you. Barney is the man. Byrd also comes up with some surprisingly cool stuff and gets into it as well
I saw them at Vanderbilt auditorium in the '70s. They performed "Meet The Flintstones" theme from the animated cartoon. Imagine that tune at light speed with each one taking turns soloing over it. Talk about bringing down the house. This is a much more reserved offereing.
@Leedysgladstones: Charlie Byrd is playing an Ovation classical, probably with the built-in pickup. Notice the "bowl back" made of hard plastic (the same stuff some helicopter blades are made of.... : )
I`ve always had a great fondness for Charlie Byrd ( and later Barney and Herb) as I like to play the classical guitar in a jazz style. I came across a sheet of a Byrd composition and have lost it and totally forgotten how to play it. What makes matters worse is I cant remember the title. It was a really syncopated samba ( not jazz samba) in D. Ring any bells with anybody. I`d just love to play it again ( another characteristic of the tune is it has no end just a constant circle )
Mucho bla,bla,bla...y malos los camarografos....que le restan lamentablemente importancia a los musicos EXCELENTES !!!! Que BUENOS interpretes CLASICOS de este genero musical-jazz. FELICITACIONES para todos los que les gusta esta GENIAL musica!!!!....saludos amigos desde Peru.
@thejazzman8 Can you or anyone help me. I`m trying to trace a guitar composition by Charlie Byrd that I had once and learned but have long since lost and forgotten. Its a very syncopated fast samba in D (not jazz samba).It has the characteristic of having no end but plays in a circle. Ring any bells? I`d love to play it again.
Barney Kessel looks as happy when he sees someone else playing something cool as he does when he does it himself.

É incrivelmente belo, me casei com homem que adorava Jazz e Bossa Nova, em 40 anos aprendi muito com ele.Lieze Rodrigues
Charlie Byrd has the greatest sound ever. I wonder if he rehearsed his solos note-for-note, they are always so perfect.
チャーリー・バードも、クリスチャン直系のスーパーギタリストです。
Cada vez que los escucho los encuentro mas maravillosos. Thanks for posting !!!!!!!!...................

I saw them at a Holiday Inn in Chicago back in the 80's they were great. I imagine they were there because of the NAMM convention in town at the time.
beautiful

@austinhinchey Yes you are correct, Joe Byrd on Bass.
Shame no claps for Charlie Christian or Wes Montgomery...

one note samba?
greatest elevator music ever. seriously the django tune is bastardized. I love byrd so much anyway though.. but mostly the bossa stuff.
who is the bassist?
Joe Byrd. Charlie's brother.
What a shame to put up these tasteful musicians with the inferior sound of a bass guitar!
Boy oh boy , Did that take me back ..Great post.
