In 2013, Lou Donaldson appeared at the San Javier Jazz Festival in southeast Spain with Randy Johnston on guitar, Akiko Tsuruga on organ and Fukushi Tainaka on drums. Lou had much to do with the birth of hard bop in the early 1950s (go here for my Wall Street Journal article on Lou and here for my multipart JazzWax interview).
Here he is with his quartet playing Cherokee (but stay at the page and see and hear the group play three more). The video is HD and the music is fantastic...
