MORE VIDEOS: www.livefrommemphis.com When we went to film these guys, they were already flipping in the middle of the day. We met back up with them in the afternoon, and they were still flipping. Onto the Grizzlies game - flipping during halftime. After the game, more flipping that night. To these guys, flipping is a way of life. If you've been to Beale Street, chances are you've seen the Flippers. They attract huge crowds with their mad acrobatic skills, and once they start, it's hard to stop watching. The Flippers operate as a "family unit" which is evident from the younger generations they train on Beale (often showcased as the opening act and passing the tip bucket around the crowd). The Flippers' street smarts have paid off - growing from mere street performers to a group of young professionals that's been featured in major films (The Firm), television shows (America's Got Talent), and toured the country performing during NBA halftime shows. These guys impress me every time with their immaculate technique and near effortless execution. I mean really, have you seen the amount of air these guys get in a backflip?!?!

This video shows a bit of the magic I found one evening during sunset in downtown Memphis, Tennessee. It all started with a glance at the sky... I could tell it was going to be a classically beautiful sunset down on the Mississippi River. So, I grabbed my camera and window bracket mount, pointed my car toward downtown and started the camera rolling. What you see here are the results of that magical 30 minutes spent riding around my hometown.. + Informações

Beale Street Blues Spanier 1964 The band sets in with WC Handy's Beale Street Blues. Muggsy stopped the playing, wasn't happy with the 'sloppy' start and off they go again. Darnell Howard on clarinet played in the King Oliver Dixie Syncopator's in the late twenties. He plays in that wonderful New Orleans style of Barney Bigard and Albert Nicholas who were in that Oliver band as well. They probably all played the Albert system clarinet. You have to ask clarinettist Woodie Allen. There is some terrific slapping by bassist Pops Foster. This kind of playing is not heard much any more in jazz,but Pops was the master. Another forgotten obscurity is Joe Sullivan. He is probably one of the most creative and original early jazz style players. In the early seventies Time-Life Records produced a set of 28 LP sets ( 3 albums plus a book in each set) called the Giants of Jazz. Featured pianists were Fats Waller, Jelly Roll Morton, Duke Ellington but Time Life ( and these specialists working for them at the time certainly knew) also produced a 3 record set featuring Joe Sullivan. Very little on film that I know, but yes....Here is Joe.. + Informações
