Tubby Hayes in 1964 and '65

Reprinted from http://jazzwax.com

In 1964, British saxophonist and flutist Tubby Hayes appeared with his big band on the BBC TV's Jazz 625, hosted by Humphrey Lyttelton.

Here's Tubby blowing a gorgeous flute on In the Night, a waltz by Hayes with an arrangement that borrowed the flavor of John Coltrane's My Favorite Things at the end of each chorus...

And here's Benny Golson in 1965 conducting an orchestra in the U.K. that features Hayes, Dave Goldberg on guitar and Alan Branscombe on piano...

A special thanks to Philip Andrews.

How great was British saxophonist-flutist Tubby Hayes (1935-1973)? Here's Hayes on Jazz 625—a BBC2 TV show that aired between 1964 and 1966. The title of the live show was inspired by the BBC2's 625-lines UHF system rather than the standard 405-lines VHF system then used by BBC1 and ITV. Here's Hayes at play in two parts...
