Hello mr carter I have been a big fan of your bass playing. For years I really dig your playing. On wes montgomerys so much guitar regards Glen boyle new zealand
Their version of “People” was one of the most heartfelt ballads of the show. Just LOVE Emmet Cohen’s exquisite piano solo (starts about 1:20:56) and builds so beautifully 💜🎶🎹
Мистер Хьюстон,вы прекрасный музыкант. Шлю вам привет из России, из Саратова. Я,по великой милости Божьей,играю на альт саксофоне в церкви. Слава Богу!
Congratulations Houston!!!! You are an inspiration! I was thrilled to see Houston Person with Emmet, Joe and Philip in my hometown, Charlotte, NC, a year ago. It was a privilege to enjoy these four amazing musicians live. It's gratifying to watch the torch passed to the new generation of jazz greats!!
Happy Birthday, Mr. Person! @emmetcohen can we please have this one on CD as well? I would prefer vinyl as too many of Houston Person's later work has not been pressed on vinyl. That would be a GREAT birthday gift to us all!
Tres generaciones y una música viva, tocando maravillosamente y pasándoselo tan bien que transmite una felicidad sin igual. Mil gracias a los cuatro y FELICIDADES Houston 🥂🌹🌹🌹🌹
This is wonderful stuff. Should be required listening for anyone who says they don't like jazz. Dynamics, phrasing, anticipation, call and response - it's all there. Brilliant.

WHATTT do those 2 snails u always place MEAN ?? Use words next time.
Thanks!
Congrats to Houston. Thanks to all of the group as well. This is just what I needed today.
Sax player - Houston Person - completely amazing, incredible! Top! Emmet is exceptional as usual
I wrote lyrics for that...Houston loved them...told me to copywrite them.right away and put them in publishing that was 2010
Their version of “People” was one of the most heartfelt ballads of the show. Just LOVE Emmet Cohen’s exquisite piano solo (starts about 1:20:56) and builds so beautifully 💜🎶🎹
Shout out to the late lou Donaldson and Roy Haynes rest in peace gentlemen
česrizam rođendan gospodinu Houston Person,da nam još dugo dugo godine poživi
I met Emmet and Houston at Marian’s Jazzroom in Bern (Switzerland), fabulous musicians and beautiful human beings!
