Yes, the movie 'Round Midnight.
That is some sumptuous black-and-white imagery.
No mention of the director of photography on the Wikipedia page.

*Way to go with the Nelson Ayres Trio, Hooblie. Wonderful!
His style on that live piece reminds me of Vince Guaraldi's popular Peanuts work.
Though, in comparison, Nelson's fingering is probably more fluid, silky even.
So I did a little digging and came up with this album, where Vince first recorded.
Love Cal Tjader on the vibes! Dig it man, dig it!

A moment of sĕrˌən-dĭpˈĭ-tē on the taco. i had just jotted down a note to watch 'Round Midnight a few days ago, after being made aware of it & come to discover all i need to know about it is on this music topo. i'm not surprised in the least that Marlow is responsible.
Tarbuster, (i always see "Tarbaby" when i see your name, nothing intended by this notation, just the way my mind works) Bruno de Keyzer was responsible for the cinematography.
10 awards received by the film (Herbie Hancock won 4 awards for his contribution) speaks loudly.
'Round Midnight
Thelonious Monk ≈ 'Round Midnight

Yes Tobia! I routinely answer to Tarbaby here on the forum.
And Victor Wooten, he's a thinker:

Really like the Dexter Gordon Willow Weep for Me, Sparky.
His tone IS edgy, and his attack, like the bleating of a goat! Also, can't go wrong with Bud Powell and Kenny Clarke in that ensemble.

i went searching on netflix for Round Midnight the other night and it wasn't available. A few alternatives suggested included Jaco, which i enjoyed, despite the sadness of it all.
i saw Jaco with Weather Report when living in New Orleans. He, Peter Erskine and Wayne Shorter were the main attractions for me.
Miles Davis & Marcus Miller w Kenny Garrett ≈ Mr. Pastorius (Marcus Miller)

Round Midnight is available through Netflix if you go for the disk instead of streaming.
Watched it just last week after Marlow's nudge up thread!

I think Round Midnight is one of the best songs ever written in any genre.
In Miles Davis' biography he talks about how happy he was when Monk said that Miles finally played Round Midnight correctly.
The highlight of any jazz concert is when the band plays a Monk tune.
What other musician showed things to Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane?

No doubt, Gary, my fingers are all tangled up just listening to it!

Man oh man, such great stuff here, things I would never find save for you good folks posting up!
Like Hooblie's post of the Mingus Boogie Stop Shuffle by Cuber, Brecker, and Herwig.
At the start, 'thought they were almost going to bust into the title theme for Batman from the 60s TV series. So boss.
Or Yanqui's wealth of Latin jazz, like that post of Elis Regina & Toots Thielman's Together.
… Okay, maybe that one I might've found on my own. But not so for the rest!

Bachar used to play tapes of some of the crazy and whimsical free jazz of Roland Kirk.
We all listened to tons of this in Joshua Tree back in the day.
Kirk was known to play a plastic saxophone at times.
And well versed in circular breathing, could also play more than one instrument at once.

Kirk plays several different instruments here.
The saxophonist is Hamiet Bluiett:

Here with McCoy Tyner.
Kirk's layering of twin saxophones is both dissonant and beautiful:
