    oh, my. we are in for a treat. Birdland is a song about Charlie Parker's place. he was an epic sax player and his nickname was Bird, so the club was called Birdland. his music transcends generations. just like Manhattan Transfer does.

      Hahaha..I spent the entire song trying to remember which Parker's place it was...Charlie...Good Ole Charlie!

      Charlie Parker and many, many jazz legends played there, many of whom the song names in the lyrics. Manhattan Transfer was THE vocalese group back in the day. They put lyrics to some legendary jazz instrumentals.

    My favorite song of theirs is “A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square.”
    Trist Curless replaced Tim Hauser in Manhattan Transfer after he died in 2014. Trist had been the bass for the acapella group m-pact, and at that time had been brought in to conduct a workshop for the students at a California high school where a certain Avi Kaplan was the star bass singer. The choir director had Trist do a one-on-one session with Avi on things he needed to know as a bass singer, stuff like how to use a microphone effectively. Trist was later the sound engineer on Pentatonix’s 2014 tour.

    Omg..favorite jam by MT! omg. haven't heard it in a long long time. I was a fan of them in the early 80s!

    This group is touring after 50 years!!!! 2023 will be their final year touring. check out their album from about three years ago or so. It is called The Junction and is a fantastic album with great covers and original material from swing to funk. Check out Swing Balboa on the riverside on youtube. How many groups have been together for 50 years. Amazing longevity. Sadly Tim Hauser the founder died a few years back but they just got back on their bike and kept on peddling. They are considered by many to be the ultimate at vocalese - singing vocals to instrumental parts from songs especially from the Big Band era.
    If you wish to hear something bordering on heavenly check out their cover of God Only Knows with the WDR orchestra. Simply stunning.

    Jazz giants Weather Report wrote the original instrumental and had their closest to a commercial hit with it. This collection of vocal acrobats put lyrics to it and this vocalese wonder is the result.

    First, it’s a Vocalese on the Weather Report song “Birdland,” with lyrics by Jon Hendricks. It’s an homage to one of the most famous jazz clubs of all time, named for Charlie Parker, who was nicknamed Bird or Yardbird. That’s kind of common knowledge.

    Hope that this isn't your first time listener of Manhattan Transfer, if so welcome aboard. This is a jazz favorite made famous by Weather Report, Maynard Ferguson, Quincy Jones 👍🏾🎶🎶👊🏾 'Birdland is a jazz club in NYC named in honor of Charlie Parker.

      Well said. I would have been crushed if he had of criticised this group - the ultimate in Vocalese alongside Lambert, Hendricks and Ross. True professional vocalists with a top notch band. Did you know it is there fiftieth anniversary this year and they are currently doing a final world tour. The guy is positive so that's great but he is obviously enjoying this great jazz so that's great.

    Manhattan Transfer was a part of my teen years. They were rad.

    Manhattan Transfer was one of my fandoms as a 20-Something. It's a vocal arrangement of a Weather Report instrumental hit. I'd say that were wouldn't be a Pentatonix or a VoicePlay if not for this group. You should check out Four Brothers. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/iPtBeKUDaMo/видео.html

    Can you imagine Manhattan Transfer and Pentatonix singing together in a collab?
    Oh, wait. That already happened.

      @@victorcowboywest Yes two cool groups. I like virtually all vocal groups but do have a preference for those who sing jazz and do vocalese - that's just a subjective taste. I love jazz standards especially from the great soloists such as Hawkins and Armstrong and singers like Ella Fitzgerald. In Australia we have a group called The Idea of North who are very good. I also tend to favour groups that have both male and female members simply for the harmonic blends feeling more enticing (again purely subjective). Kirstin Taylor Maldonado from Pentatonix is brilliant. With the Manhattan Transfer both Janis Siegel and Cheryl Bentyne are awesome solo singers and Alan Paul has put out two superb albums. In truth I think I like groups that do both acapella straight but also sing with a band - the diversity is the thing for me, that and the harmonic flavour. Thanks Victor for your inclusions. You obviously are a fan and an informed one on acapella groups. Maybe you culd name some more for me to look into. I would appreciate it. Cheers.

    I have heard of The Manhattan Transfer and "Birdland", but this song didn't sound familiar. Maybe something else of theirs will.
