I am ALWAYS emotional hearing people speak so highly of my uncle Clifford.  As a family member we always held him in high regard but to hear OTHER PEOPLE echo our sentiments is something WONDERFUL....!!!

I noted that Max Roach and Clifford Brown were the Pair Extraordinaire.  I loved to listen to them on songs like Joy Spring.

Great interview with Max - loved that he shared a different perspective on Clifford as being “hard” when it came to being paid, other things I’m sure - paints a fuller picture of the wonderful man.

Clifford  and  Fats   were poets.  Like Schubert,  both  cut short  while  on the road to  immortality.  Technique wedded to   inspiration.  You will  not hear their  like again.

Great little interview from Max.
Clifford was the best to ever do it.
👊🏻

Clifford Brown? No question regarding the genius level of the brother.His spirit remains amongst us and his music runs all through the universal musical realm.His voice is everywhere!

My dad would educated me on of all the jazz great mainly post world War II.....clifford was one of them. Thanks pops!

He was a Beast Trumpeter. Great Talent. The only question we have to ask ourselves, "What if ?".

Clifford was a special person and I think that his "clean living" and brilliance musically stood out. He is so highly regarded and hearing Max's anecdotes gives a new dimension to his personality. In some ways, the sentiment towards Clifford reminds me of comments about Christy Mathewson in "The Glory of Their Times".

What a lovely, thoughtful remembrance.  I am going to spin their album now.

I really enjoyed that. I first heard Max in 1973 on a record I bought in Phoenix AZ. This the first time I heard his voice. Clifford Brown in my opinion is the best trumpet player. I always feltClifford, Max, and Bird should've made albums together with Bud Powell and Tommy Potter

Every autobiography of the major jazz musicians mention their deep admiration of "Brownie" and their tremendous sadness over the premature passing of Mr Clifford Brown. The man could make you weep by playing that trumpet.

What a lovely rave

Wonderful

Clifford Brown and Fats Navarro are two names that are revered by jazz writers. Somehow, I've managed to be a fan of the music for 40 years without getting to know their music. The interview with the majestic Max Roach is MUCH appreciated. As an amateur astrologer I note that Clifford was a Scorpio, as am I. Max tells about a side of Clifford, very much in keeping with his sun sign, "That's a rough little guy there." Roundtree was absolutely hilarious. Thank you, so much, for sharing.

Right on musikaudios

Great job ❤

Many of today's young trumpeters are from the Clifford Brown Conservatory of Music, so to speak.

They all have techniques, expressive and emotional delivery, plausible tonal effervescence, and much more.

Among these students are Wynton Marsalis, of course, Chris Botti, Rick Braun, Tom Brown, Sean Jones, Dominick Farrenacci - a very melodic and tonally lyrical performer who utilizes both the trumpet and flugelhorn very effectively -  amongst many others.

Fantastic, great insight!

thank you. I'm a new fan of Clifford Brown; i've been searching for visuals, video in particular of him; this testimonial regarding him is kool. again thank you.
