- In honor of Soulive's new release, Rubber Soulive (Sept 14 from Royal Family Records), we are releasing this SNEAK PREVIEW of footage compiled during the filming for the forthcoming "BOWLIVE" DVD from Shine A Light Productions & Royal Family Records.
Shot on March 5th, 2010 as part of Soulive's now-legendary residency at Brooklyn Bowl, this selection combines two tracks on the forthcoming Beatles tribute. Both "Eleanor Rigby" and "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" will appear on the 11-track album.
Recorded over four days at drummer Alan Evans' own Playonbrother Studios in upstate New York, Rubber Soulive presents the band back in its original trio format. After a handful of albums experimenting with different vocalists and horn sections, it's apparent from the album's opening track, a greasy rendition of "Drive My Car," that a return to form was in order. For the next 40 minutes, Soulive add their inimitable stamp to one classic after the next from The Beatles' adored catalog. A stately bounce informs "In My Life" punctuated by a majestic organ break courtesy of Neal Evans. "Eleanor Rigby" finds Alan pushing insistent syncopation into the backbeat and Neal covering a full string section with his two hands. A gorgeous rendition of "Something" makes clear that while Krasno can get down with the best of them, he can also dig deep into the heart of a ballad as he rings every last drop of emotion from the classic George Harrison melody. The trio rounds out the set with a three-dimensional version of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." The performance concisely encapsulates the definitive Soulive sound built upon the trio's shimmering, wah-drenched guitar licks, soaring Hammond organ lines and relentlessly propulsive swing.
Rubber Soulive takes its place in a lineage of classic instrumental albums by the likes of Booker T. & The M.G.'s, George Benson and Count Basie that have paid tribute to The Beatles.
Rubber Soulive is available September 14 on vinyl, CD and mp3.

It’s shocking to me that these dudes are still basically an “underground” band. They’re so amazing at what they do. Once you listen to Soulive once you’re a fan!
Love these guys have some a their albums
instablaster
Seen them 4 times and Lettuce (their other band) twice. And yes loved them since like 2001.
Real musicians playing real music, unfortunately that has become a niche in today’s world.
the drummer is a beast!
The drummer and jguy on keys are brother . The Evans brothers. Top notch my friend
Heck of a way to cover The Beatles' music. Really nice sound and I'd never heard of these guys before.!!
Just absolute musical bliss. I slip into another world when i hear this. Kras is so smooth and the brothers are so tight it's like they share a brain.
Masters of their craft. Love these guys.
Amazing stuff. I used to see the Evans brothers when they were in The Groove and Moon boot live . Great dudes and phenomenal players . Plus i saw Soulive in Vail 20 years later and they remembered me :)
Love Soulive ever since we saw them at Ronnie Scott's in 2012
Listened about 10 times in a row & i go on, again & again... So f....; good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Y DALE SOULIVE Y DALE DALE SOULIVEEE
eric krasno + Pretty lights :O never ever forget
and Lenny Kravitz on keyboard
that is where it's at...funky
Believe it or not, third minute aprox, solo goes Iron Maiden Style, intro of a maiden song called wasted years from the Somewhere in Time album, hehe, it's a fact, i'm not the only jazz musitian who's also a metalhead, digs funk, soul etc. Like george clinton said, who says a Jazz band, can't play dance, or rock, or funk? Hehe, cool!

Bom demaaaais!
😳😲🤯, Excuse me while I pick my brain and jaw up off the floor!!
Eric Krasno is so nasty. Love this band. 20 years just tossing them on and seeing them here and there (and everywhere).
Well theirs definitely did !
Love the sh*t out of this.... really nice.... thank you.....
trop cool les gars
Fuckin awesome guys!😎
There is a cool new version of Eleanor Rigby by Voltaire 7. Check it out on Voltaire 7 website or itunes
these are some bad cats!! hope my little budding guitarist will play this well!
@07millsy
Wow... Just wow.
@07millsy
It was lost ages ago. Don't blame it on these guys, they did it well.
Lenny on keys!
SHIT YEAH!!!
@McFunkenstein
Yes it was.
They destroy this, as per usual. Go see them live and stretch because you can pull something dancing as hard as you will.
ATL !!!!!
@soocool78 I agree, he could use a little more distortion/sustain when he uses the wah pedal.
+1 if you've moved your feet at a Soulive show.
That was awesome, particularly the 2nd Beatles cover. Crowd seemed a little low on that though...
I Want you starts at 4:54
@rockilikepie haha i agree never danced so hard in my life
the best part is the dudes doing ninja flips on the tv in the back
@abullonparade1 It sounds perfect in person, just because the sheer volume of it means there's no need for extra gain. This recording is missing a little piece of his tone. I love his tone personally. I try to recreate the amount of shred he dishes out while remaining clean.
the base comes from the hammond b3 organ
awesome Lenny kravitz at the Hammond
been listening to these guys since 2004. Filthy musicians. Neal Evans absolutely is a monster on keys/organs. He's even more amazing when you see him live.
rubbersoulive
Go to 9:06 to see the best funk face in the business!
Alan Evans new name is Frobama.
anyone notice the guy ride up a tree on the tv at about 9 minutes in!?
Ha Sam RP in the front row!
DVD ASAP ($ in hand)
lol at the russian jumper video on the tv
The add placement on this was so trash.. it. It. .. hurt my soul. Dang TH-cam..
But in 2023, I still listen to this greatness. 🎉
This may rival Pat Metheny's And I Love Her and Mehldau's Blackbird for my favorite Beatles cover.
@danjmcl the best part is the Holy Trinity on Stage~!
actually comes from the Bass Keys.
haha. i think the keyboardist is playing it with his left hand. kinda funny though.
Pardon my ignorance but how is the band name pronounced? Live as in to be living or live as in live music?
***** The live thing is about live music I guess, not as the name of the band itself.
Garrett Carrico always thought it was soul-LIE-ve because when you say it right it sounds like so alive
@blkbrd117 that SUCKS. I guess the half full glass is she did it doing something she loves? Is it insensitive to ask which song caused the funk explosion?
iNTERESTING THIS BAND IS F`N AWESOME, BUT HEAR THE ORIGINAL
lol the venue is actually owned by the band I believe. It's a bowling alley/ music hall
never heard soulive until just now... makes me think, "what the fuck have i been doing with my life?"
How does he make the keyboard sound so much like bass?
Elad Gurewitz remember me of sound the keyboard of The Doors
¿Oh pero qué es esto? Sumamente interesante hombé
@DanielBascom umm i said "i think his guitar tone needs work" which yes, this is true...you see you are not a master of people's thoughts, so you cannot control my thoughts to think that his guitar tone is perfect...yes he's good and its not a bad sound, but imho, i'm not a fan of his tone
Give it up for Obama on the drums. The wig suits him well
