This just popped up on YouTube and I think that it's amazing.

Who ever recorded that has great time/feel. I like it.
We don't do as hard-rockng of a version, but we play "On Broadway" as part of a fun R&B medley I came up with, just for background instrumental music ( say cocktail set at Parties/weddings, restaurant brunch gigs)
The chord changes are intoxicating fun and that driving rhythm draws everyone in...

The instrumental sounds good. Glad they didn’t sing because I don’t think there normal screaming the lyrics would work.

Honestly, I like Angus but had no idea he was that good of a guitarist. That's next level from what I expected.
He is a real Rock & Roll player just (literally) 'amped up' a bit.
This is just a fantastic guitar>amp tone, IMHO. Those pickups are 'hearing' what Angus is playing and responding with dynamics, and the sound isn't so overdriven that you lose the clean tone.
A real touchstone Gibson tone right here!

That is KICK-ASS playiing...never heard AY play like that, or even solo that long. Surprised other rock guitar instrumentalist haven't picked up on that number.
Wow!
Yeah I’ve long been a bit miffed and saddened that the guitar community hardly mentions Angus when he is one of the great masters of guitar but is maybe harder to recognize as such because he’s topless (or a schoolboy) and acting like a madman flailing about while doing inconceivable stuff with his guitar for 20,000 headbanging stoners.

Is that true?
The video is fake?
Ive never seen Angus play Jazz but I’ve seen him flopping around on his back playing similarly stupendous lines that keep up a relentless pace and are not just a bunch of blooze licks.
OK I was suckered by the ARF Daudy dude.
Plugged in and played some nightmarish Angusy stuff to make up for being played the fool…

Actually it's Mann, Weill, Lieber and Stoller's "On Broadway". First recording by the drifters in the 60's, long before Benson.
