Videos like that are the absolute highlights of TH-cam..... beautiful people, outstanding musicians, great music, performed in a perfect surrounding, thanx to Yamaha, to Mr. Lewis and all of the staff members of this excellent production !!
This is a master class in ensemble playing. Larnell playing is super interesting as usual but he never over plays and is always intentional in what he’s playing. No wasted notes. Very inspiring
Absolutely astounding musicianship, the grooves, the solos and the absolute joy and passion they play with is amazing! Big thank you to Yamaha for these amazing videos! I wanna thank the audio engineers as well, whoever it was, they did an amazing work with everything from setting all the equipment up, mixing and producing as well as mastering this, the sound quality is absolutely impeccable! Don't get me started on the absolutely jaw-dropping sound of this Yamaha setup!
6:21 This moment is just perfect. From the bass playing supporting larnell, to Larnell just using cymbals to add to tension and release to the camera zooming into larnell’s virtuosity
ARE U FREAKING KIDDING ME???how did i only just discover this?????THIS IS AN AMAZING MASTERPIECE DUDE LARNELL!!!!eveyrthing was just beautiful man what an amazing arrangement not to forget that steel pan player was amazing!!!
Beautiful composition, superb musicianship. I've given up finding superlatives to qualify Larnell Lewis ; I think I'll use "larnell" as a new superlative ; as in : "This dude sure does a larnell job !" ; "What a larnell design !".
Don’t think about it too hard, it’s just our current society doesn’t value talented musicians as much as they should. They listen to someone rhyme about being a dirt bag over a drum machine instead.
I am enamored with Mr. Lewis's musicianship. His love of meaningful communication is obvious. I look forward to everything he releases. He is definitely in my favorite group of drummers. That is saying a lot when he is in the company of: Tony Williams, Elvin Jones, Roy Haynes, Jack DeJohnette, Billy Cobham, Brian Blade, Bill Stewart, Jeff 'Tain' Watts, Dennis Chambers, Anika Nilles, Neil Peart, Antonio Sanchez, Bill Bruford, Chris Coleman, Gergo Borlai , Sarah Thawer, Terry Bozzio, Billy Kilson, and Dave Weckl! This ensemble is bad to the bone! Love love this performance.
Speechless! inspiring as always, I love your excellence Sir Larnell Lewis, also a beautiful sight to behold seeing you and your wife do music. 🙂Ahh! the part where I thought you guys were switching to raggae. I just couldn't wait for that drum solo 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Clean as usual, breath taking, well crafted,...... Your drum solo speaks.....🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁 The flute guy💖🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥, I'm going to learn the flute This is so beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️💖 Thank you Yamaha Music🙏🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Glad I was already sitting down or I might have fallen over listening to this amazing performance. There are musical deities at work both behind the scenes and right before our very eyes. It's magical and so full of life. You just can't beat real passion and pronounced personality in art no matter what the form is. Pure joy and beauty! A lush sonic landscape to float through. Quantum love and blessings to these beautiful souls!
Hey Larnell, Andrew & Rob you guys are rocking and I'm smiling. Joy on the steel pan is icing on the cake. Looking forward to seeing you guys in Grenada again - hopefully with Joy as well. Everyone including the guy on piano was awesome on this track 💯💯💯💯💯
Brilliant The Whole Entire Band! This guy’s drumming just pulls me right in and the steel drum is beautiful. Beautiful cello like bass sound. The guitarist has fusion Tommy Bolin, Jeff Beck influence I’m sure. The flute player is coming from a Jeremy Steig day which you don’t see hardly at all now.
Lawd Have Mercy!!!! Everything was beyond excellent! Love the Yamaha Phx drums and the way Larnell played them! They sound so pure and open. They sing like Heaven has come down to Earth. I just bought the Yamaha Hybrid Maple kit (which I absolutely love), but that Phoenix kit is calling me!!! Somebody pray for me that I get that kit too, LOL!!!!! To the rest of the band, you all sound amazing! Thank you for this video!!
I love how the most "metal" looking dude up there is shredding on the flute.
he also plays sax
You mean Steph Curry's twin?
@@pattn4533 Oh, Steve Biryani?
Larnell Lewis is easily one of the cleanest, articulate, musical drummers I've seen 🔥🔥and those drums sound great
A Wife and Husband duo is a wonderful thing to see these days❤️

Hey Andreas, thanks for this wonderful feedback. We agree that this session is top!
Couldn’t say it more beautiful!
Absolutely agree!!
Energy in this video is full of love and true joy!!!
Thank you and cheers from Moscow 🔥
Everyone needs to make sure they make it to the 6 min mark......Larnell goes OFF! 🥁🤯🔥
This is a master class in ensemble playing. Larnell playing is super interesting as usual but he never over plays and is always intentional in what he’s playing. No wasted notes. Very inspiring
Larnell is just a phenomenal musician! Everything he plays just sounds amazing!
Unreal musicianship here. Everyone's playing was top notch, and the PHX drums sound absolutely amazing. Larnell ALWAYS delivers! Great video 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Those are the best sounding toms I have ever heard. Everything was amazing about the PHX, but the toms are just perfect.

Heck yea!! Also btw that steel pan player is his wife Joy :)
Fantastic performance! Those PHX drums are singin!!!
Glad you enjoyed this session!
I love the fact that there is a level of craftsmanship that you can't comprehend even if you know the basics of the instrument. But you feel it.
It's the joy in his wife's face...seeing him play.(no pun intended)
Recording this was so much fun.... so yah... face full of joy....lol.
That is how the music should be developed for future generations
Joy's smile is infectious! You can tell she never gets tired of playing music with her partner. She sounded amazing as well!
I’m so glad to live to see Larnell live. This is history
That's Larnell's wife on Steelpan. Power-couple!
Thank you :-)
Really.......
Nice, Funky and Groovy 👌🏿
Greetings from Uganda 🇺🇬👊🏿🖤
Thank you
Nice session, plus good to see Yamaha responding to comments here
Thank you
More music needs steel drums. Also, it's so nice to be able to hear cymbals well on a recording!
yeah, like individual sounding cymbals and not like the "effect goes here" kinda mix that you get a lot in recordings
Larnell is so smooth and effortless with his drumming , great band .
wow👏👏👏. also, good to see rob christian here ! his work with marito marques was also great 👏👏👏
Beautiful composition, superb musicianship. I've given up finding superlatives to qualify Larnell Lewis ; I think I'll use "larnell" as a new superlative ; as in : "This dude sure does a larnell job !" ; "What a larnell design !".
He went full Larnell!
Wow !!! This was awesome, everyone in this band was great.
There should be more comments here, 🤔
Glad you enjoyed the performance Danny!
