Hello to all members,

While searching youtube sources, just found this clip:

It's terrific playing by this giant.

Also, I especially like his solo on this tune - such strong emotional quality, and quiet almost whispering-alike execution:

Do you have any particular favourite example of Clayton's work?

IIRC, he's in fine form on Basie's "Fiesta in Blue."

He's on fine form on his All Stars' album Songs for Swingers (1958). (I don't think this one ever made it to CD.)
