Benny love the vocalese …. Truly a lost art form… You are the best of any contemporary vocalese singers… Eddie Jefferson is in heaven, now laughing and crying his head off…😂❤❤🎉😢😂❤
I don't usually comment but this is one hell of a song. I've been listening to it since it came out, and I find myself back here again and again. Incredible work!
Over the top with brilliant singing and vocalese. The arrangement is also uber brilliant. Two of the top upcoming jazz vocalist/players on the scene today, Benny and Veronica! Bass player and rhythm also brilliant!!
I've never heard vocals better than this. You're both absolutely insane. And the band...just watched an Aimee Nolte vid discussing how to swing hard. She could have just referenced this vid. Gold Standard. Christian you're a monster.
How wonderful that such delightful skills are still around. This is some of the best, hippest, most dazzling, clever perfectlion in music making that I've ever heard, and at 77 years old, I've heard a lot. It's like Mel Torme and Ella are still with us. Thank you, Benny. Thank you, Veronica. Thank you, Steve.
Benny, I absolutely love your amazingly musical and unique feel and melodic approach to playing (especially as a trumpeter), it just puts me in a great mood every time. Keep the bar high BB3!
Absolutely gorgeous! Stumbled across this after the Jaq The trombone transcription. You guys are uber incredible! Your tone and clarity is just amazing!
Magnificent version of a great Gigi Gryce tune! Benny and Veronica so awesome in duet - and Christian McBride & crew top notch behind them. Wonderful stuff!
Nice! It is so nice and refreshing to see members of the younger crowd (yeah, I'm only in my early 40s) not only getting into jazz singing at all but doing it well. Swingin' rhythm section and fantastic vocals.
Whaaat! How have I only just seen this? This is one of the most perfect jazz videos I've ever seen. Flawless vocals, smoking band, SUCH a swing. Can't explain how much I love this.
Last night my friend Blake for his senior spotlight at a choir concert sang this with his girlfriend Maria. It was amazing and when he wasn’t singing he played the saxophone and absolutely crushed it! My friends cash and gabe were also playing the background jazz.
So beautiful to see Master Christian start off, Benny and Veronica flyting through this vocalese togehter. WOW, adorable! Wunderschön! as we Germans say.
They swing ! Both have tremendous style, and above average instruments and control. Veronica has a slightly bigger resonating cavity than Benny's. Phenomenal phrasing by each. Bravo!
I need to come here to view and listen to this perfect performance several times a month since it's out. Probably my favourite video on YT this year. THANK YOUUUUU💕 xxx
Benny and Veronica you had made a VERY GOOOOOOOOOOOD JOB !!!!!!!! As usual !!!! :) I love you both !!! Now, we WANT you for a full album, with the Emmet's trio (Russel and Kyle) and some other guests !!!!!
@@bbjazzIII This is a very good news Benny ! I'm happy for you and yours friends ! Happy New Ear, Hear and Year (Yeah !) 🙂😉 And a big kiss to Veronica, one of my favorite new singers.
Veronica Swift’s voice is incredible
she's a true pro!
closest I've ever heard to Ella especially in the lower registers
Ouit
@@bbjazzIII maybe another record with her ? Hehe ...
@@Yousefmesef She is really good but but but too much influence of Ella, with all my respect, Verónica is incredibly perfect.
Man, the musicianship in the video is absolutely out of this world. BBIII you're a monster...Christian's pocket? Oh lawd.
OMG HELLO IM A BIG FAN
The whole group is just talent and hard work definitive hey. Swings so hard!
I'm so hurt
Watch Veronica’s reaction at 1:33! Best version I’ve heard so far. Outstanding musicianship. Great job with the lyrics!
That was crazy when I first heard it mad talent
Best version EVER!
It can't get better than that..
😂😂😂😂 I love this moment
Benny love the vocalese …. Truly a lost art form… You are the best of any contemporary vocalese singers… Eddie Jefferson is in heaven, now laughing and crying his head off…😂❤❤🎉😢😂❤
that Moody's mood quote at 1:19
haha you caught me ;)
Isn't that in turn a quote from "English Country Garden?"
@@michaelnorris2522 Correct
I discovered this style of song when I first heard King Pleasure's cover of Moody's Mood for Love, nearly 50 years ago.
Veronica is an amazing artist with the sweetness of Ella's voice and the incredible musicianship of Anita Oday. What a find!!!
Just a big "yes," Shirley.
Contemporary jazz singers summit that's got it all: singing, vocalise and scat singing by two of the best around.
Can’t. Stop. Listening.
After 47 years of listening only to jazz, I can say that this is a wonderful performance
I discovered back around 1957 that some musicians/singers were so much more capable than we mere mortals.
I was listening for days on RUclips Music and just came to see who the bassist was. Of course it's Christian McBride XD
Yup, I've found it. My favorite music genre is Benny Benack III
Without question....the absolute BEST version of this song in existence. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC IN EVERY SINGLE REGARD!!!!!!!!!
I don't usually comment but this is one hell of a song. I've been listening to it since it came out, and I find myself back here again and again. Incredible work!
thanks so much for breaking customs to speak out ;)
Getting some serious "King Pleasure" vibes out of this one WOW!!
Bro if isn’t one of the greatest things ive heard idk. Both have amazing voices!!
How on earth did I JUST NOW stumble across you guys?! RUclips algorithms suck. I want more like this
Adorable, both. Virtuosic and joyful and perfectly in character. A revelation.
that is one of the slickest things I've ever heard
Over the top with brilliant singing and vocalese. The arrangement is also uber brilliant. Two of the top upcoming jazz vocalist/players on the scene today, Benny and Veronica!
Bass player and rhythm also brilliant!!
Love this, what a great feel.
Christian McBride helps! ha
@@bbjazzIII Oh yes, absolutely. I play a lot of my jazz guitar in Bb as well. It's a real jazz key along with Eb, F and C.
On repeat for the last two weeks. No sign of this ending any time soon.
That was really cool. A conversation put to music. Great.
Wonderful !!! I'm a big Swift fan. And now I'm so happy to discover another great singer: BENNY BENACK !!!!!
I love the way they meet on the final note.
Late to the party, but wow! So glad I found this!
Can’t get enough of this. Every part of it is absolutely perfect and I can stop listening!
I've never heard vocals better than this. You're both absolutely insane. And the band...just watched an Aimee Nolte vid discussing how to swing hard. She could have just referenced this vid. Gold Standard. Christian you're a monster.
And Veronica too !
Never? Absurd! You've obviously never listened to Ella Fitzgerald or Sarah Vaughn! Get outta here with that BS!
3:40 YES GIRL GET IT ✨☀️⭐️
This is scary good
Wow , two of the greatest vocalists on the scene today together in the studio.And what a rhythm section.McBride is such a master.
Their voices returns me to 1950 NY
No one does this better than Veronica
I always seem to come back to this song whenever I have a little jazz phase again
insane personnel on this one
University of OWENS JR. Swinging and so tasteful drumming!
Wow! The real deal! Please God, let the numb public know about these fab artists!!!!!!!!!
How wonderful that such delightful skills are still around.

Fantastic !!!!!
awesome.....100% pure swing juice
Benny, I absolutely love your amazingly musical and unique feel and melodic approach to playing (especially as a trumpeter), it just puts me in a great mood every time. Keep the bar high BB3!
Just heard this on Real Jazz SXM and came here to hear it again. The pitch control is incredible!
This is outstanding...
It's Mel, it's Ella, it's Dave, Jon and Annie... no less !!!
(the list could go on... you have it all !)
Anita?
What a joy to listen to and watch these two fantastic singers! You can hear and see the fun they had recording this song.
These people really grasp music to the core. BEAUTIFUL!
Absolutely gorgeous! Stumbled across this after the Jaq The trombone transcription. You guys are uber incredible! Your tone and clarity is just amazing!
Incredibly!!!
Great. Some part of the song reminded me 'Moody's Mood For Love '
I keep returning to this all the time. It's magical. Might be addicted.
I get the Moody's Mood for Love vibe.... ❤
Magnificent version of a great Gigi Gryce tune! Benny and Veronica so awesome in duet - and Christian McBride & crew top notch behind them. Wonderful stuff!
There's hope for the millenial generation. Lol. I was grinning ear to ear in utter rapture at the two of you. Well done!
OMG..Lambert Hendricks and Annie Ross!! This is fantastic! Just found this. Made my week!
Veronica's mother sang with the Lambert Hendricks Ross group.
The two best young jazz singers today. The art of Vocalese ain't for the faint of heart 🤎
This video makes me want to see these two together VERY OFTEN. Love the improvs. So nice to hear!
Love Benny and Veronica. This arrangement is great and allows them to drive the music instead of the music arrangement boxing them in.
Christian McBride all day... Wow.
Benny this one is a home run, baby.
Nice! It is so nice and refreshing to see members of the younger crowd (yeah, I'm only in my early 40s) not only getting into jazz singing at all but doing it well. Swingin' rhythm section and fantastic vocals.
I laugh and cry each time I'm listening this. Love them ! Great musicians... Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this!!! Already transcribing it :)
can't wait to hear it!
Benny, and Veronica’s lyric runs are so Eddie Jefferson. So hip.
Straight to my pleasure center!
Whaaat! How have I only just seen this? This is one of the most perfect jazz videos I've ever seen. Flawless vocals, smoking band, SUCH a swing. Can't explain how much I love this.
Talk about pocket. BBIII always making Pittsburgh proud!
black and gold forever!
Last night my friend Blake for his senior spotlight at a choir concert sang this with his girlfriend Maria. It was amazing and when he wasn’t singing he played the saxophone and absolutely crushed it! My friends cash and gabe were also playing the background jazz.
What a talented group of musicians, the lot of you! I'm so glad I found your personal channel, Mr. Benack. It's an absolute gem.
thanks so much for listening and the support!
So beautiful to see Master Christian start off, Benny and Veronica flyting through this vocalese togehter. WOW, adorable! Wunderschön! as we Germans say.
:) thanks Sabine!
Woooo! This is burnin! The groove is so locked in
Ahhh! I cant stop listening to this, again and again and again, its so good!
Damnnn, that was good. 👌🍸👍🌹
Goodness!
This is the best jazz music i ever hear. You are cool Benny Benack
SUPERB!!! Their intonation!
Been obsessing over this for the past two days.
Fantastic!!.... Tottaly fantastic!!.... Nothing better... Wow!!!
They swing ! Both have tremendous style, and above average instruments and control. Veronica has a slightly bigger resonating cavity than Benny's. Phenomenal phrasing by each. Bravo!
Monstrueux !
J'entends tous les anciens mais...aujourd^hui et maintenant .
god, damn this is so good!!! Eddie Jefferson vibes up in here backed by the heavy C. McBride POCKET !!!
This performance puts this duo up there with Jackie and Roy.
Oh yeah!!!!
Merci pour ce bon moment 🙂
Awesome. I'm getting flashbacks of George Benson and Patti Austin singing Moody's Mood for Love.
Fabuleux !! Irréel, un tel swing , ils viennent d une autre planète 🌎 prise de son et mixage d une élégance rarement entendus sur cette terre, bravo 😊
I need to come here to view and listen to this perfect performance several times a month since it's out. Probably my favourite video on YT this year. THANK YOUUUUU💕 xxx
