They had to play along with a previously recorded track because of the limited technology available at that studio.

What a great clip. But there's something odd about it. The bass-line on the soundtrack bears no relation to what Ray appears to be playing. The other instruments look convincing enough. I guess the bass didn't come out on the original recording so Ray over-dubbed the line we hear.

Good stuff. But I don't understand why they just couldn't play live. Why "lip" sync to previously recorded solos? Just run the film and let them play!
