It Don't Mean A Thing (Instrumental)

Je me souviens de les avoir vu à l'Espace Cardin à Paris.
Le souvenir le plus marquant de ce concert : un duo entre Cat Anderson (trompette avec sourdine plunger) et Sam Woodyard (mains frappant directement les peaux) sur le célébrissime 'Caravan'.

I remember seeing them at the Espace Cardin in Paris.
The most memorable memory of this concert: a duet between #CatAnderson (trumpet with plunger mute) and #SamWoodyard (hands hitting the skins directly) on the very famous 'Caravan'.
