RIP Lionel Hampton (April 20, 1908 - August 31, 2002), aged 94
You will be remembered as a legend.
Had the privilege of not only seeing him in person, but playing this signature song, and grabbing a bite to eat with him after an outdoor concert back in the 70s. A true gentleman. Still have the menu he autographed for me. #FlyingHome

have an album of his my dad gave me with the track the nearness of you. Fantastic always plays in my mind.
XX crump
and don't steal the menu...
How uncouth!
Awesome. I was a fan since I was a little kid, and I remember much later that there was a fire in his high rise apartment decades ago. Cool you were able to met him!
That's SO COOL! I have only met legends, but I haven't broken bread with them. Only one famous actor, but he is not a Legend. But he was super cool.
Look at the fun these musicians are having. This is how live music should be played, it's so pure and simple.
Lionel Hampton, Tito Puente, and Robert "Bo" Wagner.. Three genius' in heaven playing together for all eternity.. God Bless..
You've had a long day, you've done some hard work that proved itself futile in the end, and you're feeling like crap, but then you find an old video of Lionel playing some good vibes, and you just feel right and good again, flying home indeed.
+Walrus Gentlemen Life's hard... But is harder without jazz!!!!
yep!
A glass of beer doesn’t hurt.
Amen to that, Bro, amen to that.
I have to add to all of these comments guy's, because they're 100% true! Ah the "healing power" of music! It nourishes your very soul, it isn't biased, it transcends all languages, it brings us together! Jazz guitarist RIP Larry Coryell in a Chicago club one night said this," give us this day our daily Chord Changes"!
Hampton, Armstrong, Goodman and Miller were my dad's absolute musical favorites back in the 40's. Guess how difficult and even life threatening it was for a young German soldier listening to forbidden allied radio stations back then.
Good music is good music and it crosses all barriers
When I was ten years old (in 1960), my Dad bought me a Lionel Hampton album. I immediately fell in love with it, and have remained faithful to this master ever since.
That's awesome.
Same here friend. But I cant find the album . It had Wine Song on it.
I am in the vibraphone in middle school top honor jazz band
Lucky bugger. I wish it had been available at my school.
@@brianedwards7142you can try requesting to start one, and learn how to jazz. Listen to essential jazz music and understand the solos.
Saw him once at Interlochen National Music Camp. He was about 70 then. He had all the teenagers from around the world on their feet almost the entire concert! He kicked every self aggrandizing rock star's butt that night. On a vibraphone.
Best kind of magic ever captured.
Saw him in D.C. in the early 70s. He did a drum solo that included walking around and playing on a couple of tabletops hitting glasses, plates etc..
A stipulation of my will is that "Flying Home" is to be played at my funeral.
I'm a big fan of all music, modern music included, but you never get to the end of the songs and feel like how this makes you feel. This song is a musical experience!
This was originally recorded in 1942 and music historians have stated that this is one of the first rock 'n' roll records. Great stuff fun to see the drummer and bass player in the groove.
Do you have a source for that!
Interesting remark!
Groovin
1939 was Lionel's first recording (much much slower version, less vibraphone)
Not rock n’ roll at all
This man still makes me swoon.....pure magic!
g waul Swoon, baby, Swooon!😁😁✝️⚜️
Always admired Lionel's perfect metronomic time, while swinging like hell at the same time. Let alone his beautiful melodic lines
I just keep coming back to this recording. Love this simple but beautiful rhythmic line at 1:25
this dude is so animated and fluid while he plays, it's unreal
They all have incredible energy, that bass player is the bomb.
I could listen to Lionel play ALL DAY. The vibes - definitely one of my favorite instruments to play, and one that doesn't get featured nearly enough. Thank goodness we had Lionel Hampton! Thanks for posting!
yup... as a technical death metal fan, as a musicophile, ....
¸ as a bass xylophone player through high school...
this is just soothing for the soul. God of the xylophones (family of instrument)
Love the guy in the back on the double bass just rockin those string's fantastic musician and he really get's into it.
That's Milt Hinton...
Ah, this man was amazing. Everything is right in synch, from feet to fingertips, down to that very last jump. Loved him as a kid and cherish his music and those of his generation even more today.
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
3:00 legendary drumstick spin
Legend
You literally can't sit still and listen to this... I love it
Lionel was the best. No words do him justice.
LIONEL HAMPTON WAS AMAZING !!!
Saw him at the North Sea Jazz festival in early 80's.... awesome energy great performance
i saw him work once..and he was truly amazing................til this day, i love his music.
65 years later this finds me....
WOW beautiful music...!!!
Dope Stuff ...the Xylophonist was Dope.
Rest of the band ... Amazing as well.
this is one of the earliest precursors to rock n roll.
J’ai brisé 2 fauteuils à Paris al’Olympia en 1958 lors de sa visite
MÉMORABLE
The whole damn band is red hot. Why can't we have TV like this today?
It's the quiet murmuring that just makes this swing even more
Lionel Hampton is awesome
still here for this on my own (and of course Roy Ayers) :)
I want to be like this guy when I grow up
He looks pleased with himself and so he should be!! Genius
his music is timeless. solid guy.
I'm playing this song on alto for my final HSC piece and it just isn't the same without a vibraphone playing. Lionel Hampton is truly talented.
Lionel Hampton war einfach unübertroffen auf seinem Instrument!
Mein Freund Wolfgang und ich, hatten das wunderbare Glück den Meister noch kennen zu lernen, hier bei einem Konzert in der Philharmonie Berlin.
Beste Grüße Harald
this guys rocked so hard... since that times, very few musicians could so such amazing things!
A national treasure ..... simply incredible .... incredible
Adoro a música de Lionel Hampton. Gary Burton deve ter sido inspirado por ele. Quem gosta de jazz, tem que ouvir Hampton e seu swing. Grandes músicos, grande líder, essa receita é infalível. Com certeza na banda todos são geniais.
Been listening to him on Spotify for over a year. First time I saw his face. I pictured more hair and a pencil line moustache.
This is ridiculously cool. And those guys in his band are obviously having a blast. Mr Hampton is magnetic - you cannot take your eyes off him. Simply awesome! 👌👌👌
Great to watch and listen to a jazz master at work! Thank you for sharing this gem.
Peter
Now ... thats COOL !
Would say : Perfect ... !
Oh man what a boss.
That solo by Illinois Jaquet was so great that Hamp went back and learned it so he could play it on vibes. It's practically a prerequisite for young sax players
I hit the like button because there was no ❤️ button.
Beautiful music performed by the master!
When I was like 13 yrs old (1983), Disneyland used to have these Disneyland Jazz weekends and I got to sit right underneath Lionel Hampton at the Carnation Plaza. I was only 13 then, but even then I knew I was in the presence of greatness.
The best there ever was. I remember the great music from this era and the great Hamp. Other great ones from the era, Red Norvo, Margie Himes but Lionel was the man.
What a kick to have these old classics,
thankfully, our kids will enjoy this as much as we.
& All THAT JAZZ :-) ♥♡
The Flyin' Home is the best of Lionel's hits
No one could swing on the "vibes" like Hamp!! Fast or slow Hamp could do it all.
His 1947 live version of "Stardust" is considered by many to be the greatest jazz recording of all time.
Du grand jazz, avec des sons lumineux, fantastiques qui nous dynamisent avec joie!!! Bravo Lionel
Wow!! He was amazing!!
Grew up hearing his music. Life long love of it ensued
That man belongs to our days. He's pure talent, so fresh, so vivid and plays so clean. No wait, this is from 1957?
omg i love this song my sisters choir went to the lionel hampton jazz festival in idaho and won twice it is so much fun!
There will never be any nicer music than this anywhere Brian gode and his senorita amigos best favorite who could I say is best they all were mucho nicer than todays rock noise that belongs in the sewer even todays fashions most of you now pay more and get what adios
This is part of what made America so great and swingin'! We ought to bring it all back!
Spine chills
I just love the vibraphone and no one could tap it like Lionel Hampton! Deez katz wa swingin man! Ive also heard that Lionel was a highly accomplished drummer as well! What a great and video document!

Excellent song.
Malcolm X brought me here ✊🏾

@@JulieHeathers Nice to hear from you. Where are you from ?
@@JulieHeathers Hi. How are you today?
How can 11 people dislike this? Obviously, they know nothing about music.
They can't dance!
absolutely the best at his time!
Awesome! Thanks!
amazing
maaan, i love that swing!!=)
That's is one crispy high stepping groove and the way roasty toasty giddyup in his style of riffing. Just springing up brightly round every corner. Just every bit bursting with vitality
Oh, yeah. Thanks for posting!
I like how Hamp emulates Illinois Jacquet's "one-note" solo (the one Adam Neely talked about in that one vid) at 1:53
5/29/21 I was born in 1954 & was blessedly raised on this music, which includes this talented genius - the great Lionel Hampton ❤️. Thank you, Daddy (1919-2005) for the gift of knowing excellent, high quality music & not the Pop shit, Top 40 crap music! 🤮 My dad & my Uncle Frank would listen to all their great Big Band Era/ Harlem Renaissance music - on breakable 78s & vinyl - every weekend around us kids. Couldn't help that this unique music became part of my soul. I miss you, Daddy & I miss this music. Thank you, Mr Lionel Hampton. 🎵🎶🎙️
Omg omg omg... Wonderful playing. How he managed to play with so clean and perfect! I def can tell he is enjoying it so much!!!♥♥♥♥
i love jazz!
When this videos shows you really what 'good vibes' means 😂
Hell yes!

FANTASTIC. Thank you❤❤❤
Прекрасно!
Such a sweet sound !
Now THAT's a tight rhythm section!
gosh..magnificent!!
God bless Hampton ! Timeless beauty !!!!!
Un coinvolgente ritmo
Per emozionanti ricordi
REAL MUSIC QITH A REAL MUSICIAN! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
The master of rhythm, there's No one Like him !
Fly, Fly, Fly Lionel
0.43 Bounce baby bounce!!!!! Crazy man, just crazy!
My Dad introduced me to Lionel's hard swinging style on old Benny Goodman monoaural albums. The funky, vibrato skatting and the hum along style fascinated me; and even at age 10, I knew Mr. H was one cool cat. This is gut punching sound: frantic, frenetic, relentless. I have an l.p. of Lionel and his Jazz All Stars Live in Emmen, Holland, recorded when the musicians were considerably older. That sound is a little more mellow and contemplative, but still has the signature flare of vibe clusters in the closing bars. Check out Lionel with Wild Bill Davis on Hammond Organ in their rendition of "Misty". What incredible talent. Gives me chils.
I’m gonna try to transcribe this, wish me luck
How did it go buddy? What instrument (s) do you play?
@@ALF8892 I play vibes and it ended up going well, I made it into the highest jazz band in my school
Excellent job sir. I think it was extremely difficult to play by ear.
congrats dude
Had me dancing!!
Wonderful!
what a talent and fun guy and all round entertainer.
How wonderful when someone performs for you & a smile doesn't leave your face.
