Agreeing with comments by Lorenzo Lamanna, Mark Fisher, and specadmin about bass player carrying everything and keyboard player. Guitar player good, gets two choruses. Bass player is shown a couple times during this (5:36) and later. Musicians are Macedonian. Language of music per Pee Wee Ellis goes round the world.
@@joevarvel1776 Really? See Tommy Igoe and the Buddy Rich Big Band "The Chicken" video here on TH-cam. When you get TWO masters doing this it is something else.
ALWAYS ALWAYS I DONT KNOW why ?? ALL 🎥 CAMERA ARE ANTI BASS PLAYERS !! I think they are those people who don’t know anything about music fundamentals !!!! Been said that they are people who can t even hear bass properly :.. don’t know if funk music can exist without bass ...
a world class big band. Solid and metronomic with plenty of soul. Sounds are beautiful and the solos are jems of elegance and understatement. Truly a winner ensemble. Bravissimi!
This whole band is GREAT. But, I haven’t seen a comment about how great the winds are playing. They are almost perfectly in tune and the runs are in sync. The bass is killing it and connected with his drummer as well. Great keyboard solo. Great band in general.
The ending left me wanting so much more... I wanted to hear a big E-flat dominant 7 then a Bb resolution with the drummer going ape-shit.... This left me wanting so much more!!!!!!!
"Canadian armed forces long distance band" did a great virtual version of this at the start of covid. the "zoom" editing gives a really good feel for the bass, tenor sax etc. and a strong lead trumpet.
awh man, i was waiting for the high F# on first trumpet. I remember i got to play lead on this tune and it was the first chart i discovered i had range.
Watch this video about 50 times and have wondered why the drummer looks so paranoid. Well he's separated by that f--ing pillar and can't hear the band like he should. Other than that he is spot on. Nice group.
Kudos to the rhythm section. Why would you jack up the soul intro like that? The soli section ...epic fail. Why would you omit the bass lead in to the tune when you have a wicked bassist? I guess you don't have any sax players that can improv. So sad

bass player is unsung hero here. Camera never shows him but he puts the whol e thing together!
He rocked the Jaco situation
Yep and keyboard player no slouch either.

As we always do... ;-)
So true, awesome playing!
Great performance, but the the real star is the bass player, who glued together rhythm, harmony, melody and the whole band.
ALSO .... the Jaco style bass player ... nailing it!!!
Very tasty solos!
T-bone at 4:00
The bass is all over the place!!! Nice groove, bassman!
bass player is having fun:):):) a true hero!!!!!
No-one has mentioned just how good the drummer is! :)
This is a song where the bass player is supposed to get all of the glory. The drummer is just a glue that keeps the band in the same track.

@@fish4bugs Dave Weckl has two versions of "The Chicken" on TH-cam. Check out the almost insane bass solos of Tom Kennedy.

bassist KILLED it !
Naughty bass player, OMG your killing it!!
That Cat on the MM bass is outta sight.Loved it!
WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF THE BASS PLAYER. Plays a crucial role in the band but never gets recognized by the camera LOL 😂
😂😂😂

Sure ! 😉👍😎
Ad so, here > bassist is grooooving !
Sadly, it isn’t as cool in their eyes
Bass players are shy shy creatures
Great sounding band and the bass player is laying down the groove
Style Jaco Bass. Astonishing!!!!!!!
a world class big band. Solid and metronomic with plenty of soul. Sounds are beautiful and the solos are jems of elegance and understatement. Truly a winner ensemble. Bravissimi!
That drummer is smooth as silk, with just the right spices! That whole band is one for the books, Phenomenal job gents! ;-)
Cool. Reminds me of the college and professional bands I used to jam with. Another life with it's own written language. Peace. 🎶
Bass man is kicking F ing ass!!!!!
such a fun interpretation of the song
Agreed. Bassist is sick.
Amazing how great a really good guitarist, bassist, drummer and keyboardist can sound all by themselves.
The bass player is fantastic!!!
Great recording!
Awesome version!
This whole band is GREAT. But, I haven’t seen a comment about how great the winds are playing. They are almost perfectly in tune and the runs are in sync. The bass is killing it and connected with his drummer as well. Great keyboard solo. Great band in general.
😮
Great work guys, Keep on groovin
Incredible performance!!
Excellent! So much fun! I think that original composer Pee Wee Ellis and Jaco Pastorius would both love your rendition. Thank you!
I wish I could like this twice!
Excellent!

Bravissimi! Bravo Maestro! Bell'arrangiamento.
Super band!
That guitar solo was AWESOME CITY!!!! Wish I knew who he is?!?!?!?
Sublime 😊
The ending left me wanting so much more... I wanted to hear a big E-flat dominant 7 then a Bb resolution with the drummer going ape-shit.... This left me wanting so much more!!!!!!!
Indiscutivelmente o baixo é o instrumento mais icônico deste conserto.
That bass line, so nice i like how it got fast at 7:30
PARABÉNS À TODOS, OS MARAVILHOSOS E INESQUECÍVEIS AUTORES DESSAS MÚSICAS E CONSERTOS CLÁSSICOS!
The coolest of this song is undoubtedly the bass, but it's the only thing that is not highlighted in the video.
Thanks for posting! What a great band!!

all comments talking about the bass but the drummer man!
Estupenda big band!!!
solid brassが好き🎺
Nice 👍
awh man, i was waiting for the high F# on first trumpet. I remember i got to play lead on this tune and it was the first chart i discovered i had range.
Great organ
Two things:
1. I'm in love with the bari sax!
2. Why was 1st sax the only one play that lick at 2:37? That's one of the best parts of this song!!!
listen to the bass!
Superb
素晴らしいですね😍😍😍
Fantastica
Perfectttttt....
BRAVO!
yes guys
Good , très bon , muy bueno FRANCE

smokin drummer !!!!!
Já assisti varias vezes e até hoje não entendo pq não houve um solo do baixo.

Kick ass!
Άψογοι!!!
guitar at 5:06
Did they just not turn on the aux perc mics?
Don’t forget the bari sax. He’s close to the camera.
Where is the bass guitarist?
2:17 great!!
Ognen Stamatoski lmao sounds extremely clean
L'unica cosa che non va e' che la camera non inquadra mai il bassista. Viva jaco
guitar 5:06

👋👋👋👍👍👍👍😍😍😍👍👍👍👍
solos are all very tasty
trombone at 4:40
nice but the second trumpet was a little bit off some times
In spite of this one (I only heard one) slight timing error, the overall sound of the brass is mighty fine.
1rst Trumpet? Wazz up...
I think it was some of the last peaces, because of the high notes.
I thought it was Mr. Big with Billy Sheehan and Paul Gilbert jaja
Ha ha!
great one, but i think the keyboarder is filling a bit too much in the beginning
y el bajista? the man bass?
La camara no enfoca al bajista. es el mas importante en este tema
CARALHOU

It sounds like they are reading the notes before they play them
51 thumbs down ??? 🥱
Kudos to the rhythm section. Why would you jack up the soul intro like that? The soli section ...epic fail. Why would you omit the bass lead in to the tune when you have a wicked bassist? I guess you don't have any sax players that can improv. So sad
Where is BASS!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are a looser
Conga player needs to grow a pair
The trumpets need some better chops lmao you can hear the struggle😂😂
Esas trompetas hay que estudiar xavales vaa un pokito joder
Samo kaj nas postojat glupi reziseri ili vodaci na kamera koi neznaat nikogas da go dadat solistot vo gro plan.
Played this at 1.25speed now it sounds terrible at 100%
