John Williams honors guitarist Tommy Tedesco
This was a tribute from 1993 at Musician's Institute where John Williams and others paid tribute to Guitarist and Wrecking Crew guitarist Tommy Tedesco. Even though he may have worked on 1000s of recordings, there wasn't anything that made him prouder to be called to play solo guitar on a John Williams Movie Score. This was from the movie, 'Conrack'. Happy Birthday to TT who would have been 94 on July 3rd.

❤❤❤ INTELLIGENT, TALENTED, GIFTED AND A GENTLEMAN. TOM DOWD WAS THE SAME- BOTH VISIONARIES ❤❤❤
To have put yourself in that company Lee is just an astonishing lifetime achievement
Young men couldn't vote, couldn't drink but, could go to war!
Desde ke la eacuche me gusto mucho.
It's very moving to see the amazing and humble genius that was/ forever is Tommy Tedesco being moved to tears by one other amazing and humble genius that is John Williams' tribute to this master player! 🙏🙏🙏
❤
I listened to KFWB Los Angeles… then KPPC, KMET, and changing the voting age will be the end of the USA 🇺🇸. What sad Irony. PLEASE VOTE
❤
An absolute phenomenon!!! One of a kind and what a sense of humour!! Thank you Tommy Tedesco RIP.
Good evening. We are doing your iconic song at a Cancer benefit this Sunday. Thank you Jackie for you music "What the world needs now, is love!
WHEN ITS TIME FOR ME TO CRAWL TO MY GRAVE , THE ANTHOLOGY CD OF THE 5TH DIMENSION IS COMING WITH ME !!! THE WIFE CAN GET HER OWN GOLD HOLE !!!!
I met Jackie when he was playing lead alto with the Basie band. He sounded just like Marshall Royal. We talked for a while after the gig like I was his next door neighbor. Just an absolute prince.
The picture at 2:01 in the video - WHAT A GROUP of GUYS !!! Johnny Cash - Merle Haggard - Buck Owens - Glen Campbell !!! Wondering how many Number 1 Hits came forth from them !?!
Thanks for this!
Carol King…a great song writer…who had no business singing. She was always vocally weak and awkward.
I heard Mike play a pickup jazz gig with Pete Christlieb in the late 80’s and he killed it!
T.T. is regarded as the most recorded guitar player of all time!
still listening, thx mafia3
Every once in a while I see a Woody Allen Film and I think, "Why isn't Stephen Bishop's "Little Italy" playing during this scene?"
That had to be his take on Nature Boy at around 3:56. It is a great fantasia on a theme, amazingly played.
I miss these people being in this world.
its 2024, I weep as i hear your song, life is now screwed, people have not learnt to say no to corrupt authority.
Love this story! I met Frank in 1973. I am lucky!
I truly loved this man, his manner and his works…. He made me proud to be a Glen…
How incredibly ironic considering the topic and the speaker that the music mix is horribly intrusive, and frankly just plain bad.
Yup...way too loud. Kinda surprised.
Yeah, could have just ducked the music when John spoke. Use a compressor. Come on.
Not only that (which was bad enough), but the music was borderline silly.
❤
Congratulations, Billy Davis, Jr and Marilyn McCoo on your long, continued marriage.
💜🎶💜
No no no no no!!! What has happened to Marilyn. She was the most amazingly beautiful black woman you could ever set eyes on. She was class, She was style, She was everything we didn't want a white girl to be. Ans now, She is white!!!! No more can I listen to the most amazing woman who ever lived and think of Her as some link of brown Goddess!!! Now She looks like every other white woman in the street. Where did my black goddess go, please don't ever leave me!
Tommy could make the line on a fishing pole sound like music from heaven if he put his mind to it...
I met Tommy when I was 15 at G.I.T and he was one of the nicest most inclusive and funniest people I’ve ever met. He was an absolute Mensch. It’s nice to see him honored.
Didn’t need the background music!
I agree!
Unless I'm mistaken, the background music is an example of Tedesco's art from Williams's score to the movie "Conrack."
@@VUclear Music should have been ducked when John speaks. Irritating. John is honoring Tommy here.
@@BrianBrown-ei6nh Duh. That's what music does in movies. It creates and highlights emotion during the words and action. They all work together. Watch Dracula (1931). And see how this doesn't happen!
I had the pleasure of meeting him at one of his clinics.
My first guitar book as a kid was one of Tommy Tedesco's! It was beyond me then..and now.
Very fitting. Thank you for the music Tommy! It will live forever . . . CC
This man is Truly a Legend, I am sure there are many that know the name Tommy Tedesco but I can assure you 100% that millions of people have heard his music at some time in their life.
Wow.
what a wonderful tribute to be given by one qualified to let us know the truth of Tommy Tedesco's contribution and creativity. thanks for posting this.
John Williams is a Hack.
Wonderful!
Truly beautiful. Thank you for sharing! -Maurizio
That was beautiful.
A true legend!
Timeless classic songs they did.As a young teen I was loving their music and songs...they kinda got the Whitney Houston treatment back then before Whitney did the Country song before that folk said oh she can't sing.heck she was jamming before that just as this group was doing it!I still play their music indeed!
My old music prof from college was fond of saying: "When in doubt, leave it out."
I think the Fifth Dimension held her back, she was truly a superstar.
Wow - she has aged so well! I would NOT have known that is the same person!
Love them. Beautiful, cool, talented, and gracious people. Wonderful music.
With all due respect, who gives a rat's fuck about theme music for television shows? I get that these guys were 'ringers' who could bring a lot of on-the-spot creativity to recording sessions, and I for one enjoyed the music of Steely Dan as much as anyone (and they of course relied on session musicians exhaustively). But there is something both mercenary and soul-less in raving on and on about your god-damned bankability. I like musicians , and value musicians, who have SOMETHING to SAY, and that's a different path entirely than aspiring with all your will to build some 'project's' profitability and profile. Fuck that SHIT. That's EXACTLY why I turned away in utter relief from the narcissistic, preening, and diseased wasteland of popular music and popular art.
Just found ya! Subbed!❤
