My favorite “Delilah” and my favorite Bobby Hutcherson record. The way Ahmad Jamal would play the tune. Fantastic rhythm section on that record. Geri Allen sounds amazing! It should be noted that Hutcherson is not playing vibes on this, he is play...

bluesy41, you’re right, Joey DeFrancesco is a bad man!  Great clips all.  Some of my favorite work of his is with the great Pat Martino; very complimentary approaches and they burn!https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O15Xmzn6T1Y
