This solo was Cory’s reply to Shawn Martin. It was a long time coming, and years in the making. Shawn was the Snarky keys solo guy and when Cory came along, Shawn would say to him, “take your time, take your time” when he was building a solo. So he did lol…
Funny sidenote: Larnell Lewis's (the Drummer) performance on Snarky Puppy's 2014 album We Like It Here was noted for his learning most of the songs on the airplane flight to the Netherlands, having only played two of them before the recording date. All members of this band are amazing but Larnell is something else! ;)
Just to add a bit to the context, their planned drummer had problems with his passport or something, but he couldn't take his flight, so they called Larnell as a last-minute substitute.
When you said, “Ensemble writing inside solo ideas is the key,” I literally paused the video to take a step back at how poignantly correct you are. Such an amazing band and perfectly apt commentary on your part, my dude.
Tylerdark6149, I agree with you 100%! When I heard Drumroll Tony's comment,... "Ensemble writing inside solo ideas is the key," I thought that was quite a profound statement as well. I think it perfectly applies to the difference in how we respond and react when listening to much of today's repetitive, electronic, loop based music, versus listening to live music, performed by live musicians. - For even if a repetitive, loop based song has a great beat, and makes us want to stomp our feet, snap our fingers, clap our hands, or dance, in my opinion, live music produces a guttural, impassioned, emotional reaction, at our inner core, when we hear an alteration of the groove, the melody or some other detail of the music. Also, it's great to hear the improvisational aspect as well. For I highly doubt that every note of the recorded version of "Lingus" was written out. Instead, I imagine the charts, and the music scores were there to set the fondation, and from there, these incredibly talented gentleman are simply " feelin' " each other's groove, talent, and musical mastery, as well as feeding off of, and reacting organically off of, the audience's reaction as well. Listening to live music with a live band can be a magical, transformative experience! Till next time! Peace✌️ 😎
Right On Drumroll Tony, I enjoyed your reaction. Agreed, Snarky Puppy are a fantastic band, and their musicians are amazing players, and that performance of "Lingus" was simply unreal! 👌 👏
It's actually 5/4 all the way through and 4/4 once the solo starts, but the way they make it SO rhythmically complex is awesome. As a tabla player, I live for this shit lol.
That is music from the future, and always will be. The musicianship is on another level and this performance will be enjoyed and analysed for many years to come.
@@patfagan5645 Well yea and yea. The foundations musically and development of skill sets on their instruments are definitely developed from Jazz roots. Especially the keys solo in this song as it how it functions harmonically. But yeah... this is like the modern spin in the evolution and its just great.
What I love about this recording just as much as the absolutely insane levels of playing and composition is the joy and sense of cameraderie all these players exude. It's a joy to watch as much as listen to, and Shaun Martin's reactions to Cory's solo are pure gold.
Oh man, yeah this song is all around incredible. The groove, Larnel fucking killing the drums on short notice, the otherworldly solo, the super tight brass section... It still blows me away every time I hear it.
Most people be like "wow, who is that amazing alien pianist?" But you're like "is that Cory Henry? I think I saw Cory Henry!" (implying "I know this is going to be GOOD" 😁)
YES!! After a recent comment, I didn’t think you were going to do Snarky Puppy. This whole album is amazing, and I love the little insights you offer throughout. More please!!
You know my dude, I feel like I've probably watched a thousand reactions to "Lingus". I think the only way I can come close to the feeling I had the first time I watched it is to live vicariously through other people's first times. I can honestly say though, you're the first person to acknowledge how saucy those two little bass runs that Michael League does in the second I guess "verse" section. The little pull back on the rhythm, just getting slightly behind everything while doubling the horn line?! Savage. I know everyone else is usually busy having their brain turned into shit by Cory Henry and Larnell Lewis, but to my ears those two little moments give like a +1000 stank to the whole feel early on in the piece. Great reaction man. I really appreciate your active listening skills. And cheers from a fellow Seattle bassist and guitarist. Go Hawks!
If you were impressed by Lingus, you might want to check out “Trinity”from the forthcoming Snarky Puppy release titled Empire Central. The band’s evolution is astounding.
If you feel like it, Plini has some of the greatest Rock/Jazz crossovers. Flaneur is a jazz masterpiece, and everything on the Handmade Cities album is wonderful, which the first track, Electric Sunrise, might be his best ever. Anyways, glad to see someone else who knows Cory Henry. He takes you to church and makes you want to cuss all at the same time.
Absolutely no offense but we could say you are a bit late to the party haha:D but that’s okay since the party goes on forever with these guys…After this one I really recommend their newest single “Trinity” which has an extended version online on TH-cam. I usually really enjoy your reactions and thoughts btw, so thanks for that!
They are great! Years ago I used to play with one of their saxophone players when I was doing the cruise ship gig. Excited to finally get one of their songs on here
Remembering back on Return to Forever and The Don Ellis big band and thinking this will be an end of an era because where can you go from here. Then this! We ain't done yet.
you just godda hold your hands up and say WOW the whole is a masterpiece but Corey Henry 🤯 the dudes of the charts unbelievable,the best keyboard solo ever
Brand new to your channel- love your reaction to this vid. Truthfully though, my favorite part of your reaction was your response to that horn line at 13:53. That line is so fucking good dude! I feel like no one ever talks about how cool it is!I always thought I was alone in noticing how cool it is. Anyways, cheers man 👊🏻
Larnel is such a mf on drums honestly not to take anything away from the amazing keyboard solo but the drumming that was happening under it is absolutely spectacular
Thank you thank you thank you!! You are the first person I've seen react to this song who mentioned the left hand piano, which I absolutely love! Played by Bill Laurence (orange shirt - at least I think it's orange. Could be peach) 😁
Bro just asked if he saw Cory Henry on keys 😂If only he knew what was coming a few minutes later. And don't let Shaun Martins 2 finger key bass fool you. He has 9 grammys under his belt. And even that legend was dying because of Cory's solo. Shaun Martin when he has to play his bass line, "Cory, I wanna play too!"
Few have commented this, but pay attention to the guitars in the second part. There are actually two guitars playing the melody in unison. And it sounds like just one massive sounding guitar playing perfectly.
Enjoyed your reaction. Subscribed. Have you come across Dirty Loops? Recommended Work Shit Out as an introduction song if you haven't and your interest is piqued
@@DrumRollTonyReacts Met them in Dallas, TX with my daughters. The nicest guys ever. Glad they are with Quincy Jones now. David Foster had no idea what to do with them.
I know everyone loves cory's key solo and it is fucking amazing...but I'm a bass and drum guy and how Larnell builds during that solo perfectly compliments, and importantly,doesn't take away from the solo. Just builds WITH the key solo so well. Second half of the key solo to the end of the song, Larnell goes berserk on that kit. Absolutely unbelievable.
One of the guitarists (Mark Lettieri) has a good solo career going at the moment while playing with these guys and The Fearless Flyers, and who knows who else. Really great stuff, baritone guitars, groove for days.
15:38 When I first heard this, my reaction was pretty much like six-time Grammy Award winner Shawn Martin's. When a person can get a reaction from Mr. Martin like _that_, you know they've done something right!
To clarify the tempo… the ‘verse’ is a very slow 5/4 and the ‘middle 8’ and ‘chorus’ (all loose definitions for what’s going on) are still in 5/4 but twice the bpm… and the solo section for Corey is in 4. In a live performance of this song, Michael League said “This is our version of Dub Step.” If it hasn’t been said, this group forned in Denton TX at University of Northern Texas (formerly North Texas State) which has been a Mecca for jazz musicians for decades. I remember my older brother singing its praises back in the ‘70’s. There should be a picture of SP in the dictionary under “Musicianship”
That's what happens when you go to the University of North Texas. They don't mess around over there. The best part is that their instructors are in the audience enjoying the creation. This was when I really became a fan of Corey Henry. He is gonna make me buy an organ, put it in my house and shed!!! I will have a Hammond and a Nord C2D dual manual organ.
This is one dope track…. Snarky Puppy are just something else. And Cory’s solo takes you into a different universe; so much gospel, soul and jazz in there. Re the headphone thing for the audience: I could imagine it potentially being the best experience, audio-wise, at the same time as being strangely isolating - dunno, never been in this situation. Enjoyed and valued all you commentary and heartfelt reactions, Tony. Was wondering if you heard of the Swedish pop/jazz fusion trio Dirty Loops (who’s bassist Henrik Linder also recorded with, amongst many others, Matt Garstka), and perhaps would consider reacting to their track “Work Shit Out” which showcases not only Henrik’s beautiful bass sound but also Aron, the drummer’s, chops. Living in hope, and yeah, also subscribed :)
I think the effect on the trumpet was envelope, not flange. On the solo, I heard bass guitar synced with the kick drum, and I think guitar ghost notes too. Great selection.
So sad that you're JUST showing up in my feed.🙄 After watching Outlier and Lingus by myself for the 60,000 zillionth time ALONE, I was SO STOKED to see your video!!! Your Outlier brought me to your Lingus... Indescribably STINKIN' SATISFYIN' to experience this through someone else that understands the gravity of the situation going on here... 🤭👍💜
These guys are so ninja. They're like all the band geeks that became multi-Grammy winning musicians who totally stole your girlfriend that one time in Amsterdam 😂❤😊
The “Audience” with earphones are principally other musicians expected to play on other tracks on the album. Mike League, the leader, composer, arranger and bass player, is a beast and genius! Incredible band... and of course Cory is KILLIN’!
@@Marieketoetsenist If you were to view other videos, you would see string players and other horn players due to play on other tracks. That doesn’t preclude the possibility that there are regular folks there, but it’s a studio with limited space, so it’s my guess that most are people who are involved in the production.
Oh shit you are in Seattle too??? Just so you know streetlight manifesto is playing tomorrow at showbox SoDo and tickets are still available. If you don't know them then now is the time you gotta go!!! If you do I'll see you there brother! Edit: if you love jazz so much you have to come out to mojam Mondays down at Nectar Lounge in Fremont. It's every Monday, it's a free show and anyone can sign up to jam on any instrument it's just a beautiful jazz ensemble of random musicians every Monday night for free, definitely worth checking out if you haven't. 😊
@@DrumRollTonyReacts oh that's awesome hopefully see you around sometime. And yeah if you haven't seen or heard streetlight I suggest giving them a listen and coming out to the show they are a Ska band with creative prog influences and imo are the best Ska band around
Following Snarky Puppy and Polyphia, I'd highly recommend checking out Parcels Live Vol. 1. It's a big hour long video but most of the songs within it are 3ish minutes. Pick any (but especially from the top half where things blend from one tune to the next really smoothly) and enjoy. Best description is a kind of electro-disco-pop with some really tight and clean guitar work, and all around incredible arrangements.
You may already be aware of him but I gotta recommend some Cory Wong. His band is so incredibly tight and well arranged, it would be an absolute treat to see you dissect. As a bass player, I think you'd love Direct Flyte featuring Victor Wooten; as a Snarky Puppy fan, Concrete featuring Mark Lettieri; or if you just want to see the band do their thing, Assassin is a favorite of mine- especially the Paisley Park session.

Mannnn that keyboard solo🙏🌍
For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
After "Snarky Puppy" try "Dirty Loops" a Pop/Jazz/fusion Band from Sweden. For the drummer heart "Work Shit Out"
@@loreadan9838 I listen to Dirty Loops almost daily. Wonderful band. We should do some of their stuff!
@@loreadan9838 Plus one on Work Shit Out! Its on a similar level with this one.
You should watch the Danny Cary drum cam.
yeah it's all 5.. tasty AF !
I see a new reaction to lingus, i click. Every time.
Bro that’s me😂
Me too 😂😂😂
Yep. Can’t resist
haha same here :)
Me too bro
I firmly believe Cory’s solo on this recording will go down as one of the all-time great solos in jazz
This solo was Cory’s reply to Shawn Martin. It was a long time coming, and years in the making. Shawn was the Snarky keys solo guy and when Cory came along, Shawn would say to him, “take your time, take your time” when he was building a solo. So he did lol…

Larnell is a serious talent.
i am so amazed at the fact that in every snarky video of this album you can find a comment like this somewhere. larnell is crazy
When you said, “Ensemble writing inside solo ideas is the key,” I literally paused the video to take a step back at how poignantly correct you are. Such an amazing band and perfectly apt commentary on your part, my dude.
Thanks! I can still hear my bass teacher saying that in an arranging class. When you see it with this level of god players it's just mind blowing 🤯

Right On Drumroll Tony, I enjoyed your reaction. Agreed, Snarky Puppy are a fantastic band, and their musicians are amazing players, and that performance of "Lingus" was simply unreal! 👌 👏
The horn runs in the final call and answer are often overlooked due to the remnant effect of Corey's solo. It's blazing stuff. So tight and nasty!
One of the best horn outros of all time
You ain’t lyin. Those little horn runs in between the final solo section make my head spin
It's actually 5/4 all the way through and 4/4 once the solo starts, but the way they make it SO rhythmically complex is awesome. As a tabla player, I live for this shit lol.
I've watched this performance a lot, and it gets me every damn time. Serious ensemble playing, and the synth solo, man oh man.
That is music from the future, and always will be. The musicianship is on another level and this performance will be enjoyed and analysed for many years to come.
I don’t listen to jazz, but this is just amazing. Blew my mind when I discovered it so it was fun to see you react to it as well.
I think the genre is not definable. Or the genre could be defined as Snarky Puppy
@@patfagan5645 Well yea and yea. The foundations musically and development of skill sets on their instruments are definitely developed from Jazz roots. Especially the keys solo in this song as it how it functions harmonically. But yeah... this is like the modern spin in the evolution and its just great.

Dude you’re one of the best. I’ve never seen a good snarky puppy reaction where you kinda get EVERYTHING. kudos.

Thank you for the nice comment. Glad we have some locals in here!! Go Hawks!
I tear up everytime I listen to this damn song.
Dude I loved your breakdown of this as we went along. I’m begging you to to react to the rest of this “We Like it Here” session
If you were impressed by Lingus, you might want to check out “Trinity”from the forthcoming Snarky Puppy release titled Empire Central. The band’s evolution is astounding.
Agreed! It's my new 2nd favorite behind The Curtain
If you feel like it, Plini has some of the greatest Rock/Jazz crossovers. Flaneur is a jazz masterpiece, and everything on the Handmade Cities album is wonderful, which the first track, Electric Sunrise, might be his best ever.
Anyways, glad to see someone else who knows Cory Henry. He takes you to church and makes you want to cuss all at the same time.
That last sentence tho!
I love the side eyes to each other from the string players loving how good this music is. This whole album is amazing. Also sound engineer is the man!

Drummer learned the whole song on the plane
im no musician but omg What a song must have listened fifty times now. Larnell Lewis, corey Henry and all the rest. Im just gonna say thank you. 🙏🏻
I've watched this Snarky Puppy video and reactions to it like at least 30 times.
Dude, this is the most professional notating I've seen on Lingus. (Um.... I've seen a LOT.) Excellent. Thanks. Subscribed.
god I love how all in unison they are on the odd syncopations that makes this song groove so hard.
"Did I just see Cory Henry?" Oh lordy you're about to see a whole lot more haha
😅😅😅🤟
Those horns coming out of Cory's solo are just so tight.
"What About Me", also from these sessions, is absolutely perfect if you want to see Larnell, the drummer, shine even more.
Remembering back on Return to Forever and The Don Ellis big band and thinking this will be an end of an era because where can you go from here. Then this! We ain't done yet.
It will always go on and on and that is the beauty of it
I was at that show and yes it was UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE MY BROTHER !!!!!!!!!
Lol @ "is that Cory Henry?"
hahaha it suuuuure is, and BOY are you in for a treat
👀😅😅😅
The keyboard solo is good, but the drummer is so amazing, it ties everything together.
I recommend Dirty Loops if you like this. I'm seeing Snarky Puppy with Steely Dan in Detroit tomorrow night.
Groovy, this is more the kind of thing I imagine you chilling to than some of the other stuff you've reacted to.
I can listen to the first 2:30 of Lingus over and over again. That Horn line goes so hard in the beginning. Major stank face all the way through.
You can check out Dirty Loops if you want jazz/fusion/funk/pop. Start with “Work Shit Out” by Dirty Loops
Best song in 5 ever! And Larnell learned it on the plane.. crazy
That is crazy

It was 100% the first time hearing it. I will always let people know in vids if I have heard it before.
Anybody notice the people on the sound room going nuts? Love it!
I didn't but that is awesome
I love the falling down the stairs bass lines during the horn section solo. Very Zappa ish.
Lingus is pretty cool, and the solo is incredible, but Shofukan is outstanding! You should give it a go hahaa

@@DrumRollTonyReacts oh that's awesome hopefully see you around sometime. And yeah if you haven't seen or heard streetlight I suggest giving them a listen and coming out to the show they are a Ska band with creative prog influences and imo are the best Ska band around
I am looking forward to watching your brain melt on this my brother
Following Snarky Puppy and Polyphia, I'd highly recommend checking out Parcels Live Vol. 1. It's a big hour long video but most of the songs within it are 3ish minutes. Pick any (but especially from the top half where things blend from one tune to the next really smoothly) and enjoy.
Best description is a kind of electro-disco-pop with some really tight and clean guitar work, and all around incredible arrangements.
Dude please react to the polyrythmics. They are so groovy. World class arrangement and musicianship. Such a fresh sound to me with psychedelic funk
It stays in 5 all the way to the solo
You should check out “Shofukan” from the same session. Just as amazing, but a bit more of a hook weaved into composition.
You may already be aware of him but I gotta recommend some Cory Wong. His band is so incredibly tight and well arranged, it would be an absolute treat to see you dissect. As a bass player, I think you'd love Direct Flyte featuring Victor Wooten; as a Snarky Puppy fan, Concrete featuring Mark Lettieri; or if you just want to see the band do their thing, Assassin is a favorite of mine- especially the Paisley Park session.
