Does anyone get highly emotional listening to this? I seriously get water filling up my eyes. The passion, emotion and power is just so much in this performance. I’ve watched it 100s of times by now.
As someone on the spectrum, please get your kid into music real soon. Being good at music is one of the only areas where no one cares about such things. Shredding was the only reason I even remotely cool in highschool.
I've only been listening to this for 6 years, but I hope to have another 30 years to come back here from time to time. Because listening to this and reading your comments is quite a rare experience. Whoever feels this music is my brother at this moment. To feel them and those perfect musical moments, to experience the same rapture that you have when you listen to them. To unite with this song for a second and maybe with those of you who feel the same way... I think there will be few experiences more immersive than this.
Im a drummer of 15+ years w/ a background in all ways of music. Only recently did I come across Yussef Dayes, and he's already one of my favorite drummers ever. He is simply one of the best I've heard. How smooth he plays such complex breaks with as much control as he has is one a kind. This is some of the best music out there. I got a kick out of watching Yussef smirking while playing, he knows this shit is magic. Mansur made that guitar speak in 10 different languages, Rocco is about as clean as they get on bass, and Alfa made me float in space with the keys. I never comment on TH-cam, I can make an exception for such greatness. I might be 4 years late, but this will forever be timeless.
Absolutely. @7:00 or so I like to imagine Yussef was screwing with Rocco playfully with those little pauses, smirking at him knowing the magic was gonna keep flowing no matter what 😊 6:57
@@emmettron tbh I don’t think that was intentional, I do think he slipped up for just a beat. The hesitation he has gives me that feeling, everything Yussef does is calculated and that part felt like it wasn’t. They saved it and nobody can even notice. Geniuses
@@bigathadon either way I absolutely agree. Nothing like watching such talents effortlessly weaving oopsies into magic😄 I could watch these guys improv all damn day
"Dad why my sisters name rose?" "because your mother loves roses" "thanks dad" "no problem Yussef Dayes X Alfa Mist - Love Is The Message (Live @ Abbey Road) ft.Mansur Brown & Rocco Palladino"
Yussef Dayes is a drumming gawd genius iconic legendary diety. What kills me EVERYTIME are the facial expressions *ha ha ha ha ha ha ha* . I thank The good Lord that I've heard his, and other gifted musicians', music in my life.
it’s 4 am in the 5 th of July 2024. Thinking of my beloved daughter Sinead who died too young at 25 …. She will be 32 in august … Sinead had great taste in music . Your music is so beautiful and it touches the soul 🙏. Amazing piece of music . Connecting with you my beautiful Sinead. Love you FOREVER . I miss you soo much . This music brings me more serenity … Thank you for this Music .🙏❤️🦋❤️🙏
This is gonna sound cheesy but I don't care. This is one of the most powerful pieces of music I've ever heard. I keep coming back and EVERY time I tear up, I don't even know why. Maybe because of just how much energy this song has? The two crescendos are just immense and incorporate everything I love about music and being a musician. Even the interlude jam in the middle, its all on point and so cohesive. Sorry if it comes off as rambling, I just love this song so fucking much.
@@natefreedman2972 indeed! My youngest son appears to be getting the hang of it quite fast along with being self taught. Yussef aside, my son is ultimately my true inspiration.
Yussef and Alfa are like the sun and moon, omnipresent and covering the sonic spaces at all times, the main structural tenants of the music. Rocco is the Earth, where his lines and fills are like waves crashing and rock shifting. Mansur is like a comet or shooting star, a spectacle hard to ignore, and easily soars above the entire ensemble like a phoenix
His whole energy is other worldly. He has that Badu, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, type of energy. Throw in Andre3000. Man I hope like hell he does a tour in the US and come to Oakland. I will spend my retirement money if I have to in order to see the Bruv play live!
See what you mean, Almost like they frickin' cheated with something unique... There is a sound present throughout this masterpiece that is very NEW, and that hidden element fully carries the track to undebatable greatness. Like I can hear the secret sauce, but I just can't figure out WHAT THE HELL IT IS?!?!?! Love is the message, it is prolly a clue lol.
@@liyahn2373 I quite liked your first "vibratory contraband" comment as you mentioned it 5 months ago - or, textually, "contrebande vibratoire" in French, since I somehow got the feeling you're French-(frog) yourself... - I noted it, found it was a sharp neat way of discribing the vibes out of it, a sort of trangressive freedom that one can happily get out and within. I'd add your "unheard of" (before, or yet) here, then now let's go for the "vibratory contraband unheard" but here discovered for our best high pleasure ;-). In case you didn't already go there to dive within, Yussef Dayes's Trio (Yussef Dayes, Rocco Palladino great bass, Charlie Stacey on keyboart ) "Welcome To The Hills" live album was just upload yesterday : a true Xmas gift, a real burning kik, a necessary crave... and just a wonderfull moment to handle this damn lock down and get some joy throught this week end and on ever anytime.

A real jam session, with all the ingredients: a formidable guitarist, an effective and sober bassist, a drummer with a rhythm that fills the scene and keyboards that accompany a superlative group.
I celebrate any human being that is listening to this. Whenever life gets hard and I start buying the rubbish that all social media and news is saying about how life is supposed to be perceived I try too remember that our generation is the one to be creating this genius and utterly gorgeous soundscapes. As my lovely grandmother used to say “hope is the last thing to die”. Love is the message.❤
This is the best music i ever heard in my entire life. I dedicate this to my mum in heaven who took her life in march 1981. Miss you mummy 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢....
@@iamtheaudiophile I think the scales used are very close to those used in jazz at some moments (listen to the chords played by alfa mist or the solo of Mansur Brown) and most important, there is a big part of improvisation as there is in jazz. But whatever, we don't really care if it is jazz or not, as long as it is incredible music
This is a beautiful time in music and particularly in jazz; a new era of expression. I imagine this is how it felt to be contemporary to sessions in New York in the 50's
The first time I heard this song, I was shooketh by Mansur's skills. Second time around, I could not believe how sublime and full of character is Rocco's baselines. I circled back again for the third time to focus on Alfa Mist's dreamy keyboard work-how consistent and complimentary it is. I noticed Yussef's drumming last- every snare, every movement is calcualted, carefully calibrated to lay the foundation for these passionate youngins to express. What a beatuiful piece of art this is!
@@MrKongatthegates why are you hating though. Rocco has great energy and is an extremely talented dude. Fr homie was feeling the music and you had to go trash the vibe.

Yeah but let’s see how expensive all the pedals and amps are. Let’s see the price of the drums or those keys. The guitar itself is mostly just about how comfortable it is. I bet he’s got different pickups in it too.

This is single handedly one of the best videos Ive ever seen on youtube. Not just the incredible music, but the way its affecting them all, infecting each person, its like a drug, an entity just taking over each performer and growing. One musician fosters the idea and gently raises it up, just for the other to pick it up from there and grow it even more. The ecstacy on Yussefs face is contagious. Nothing is hidden in this performance. Just pure unadulterated musical love. And I love that so much its hard to even put it in words. Love is truly the message, and these 4 people are fitting messengers.
Couldn't put it better myself, heres another one that makes me feel the same way, different style........ th-cam.com/video/mFSRCG4DrmI/w-d-xo.html&start_radio=1
The calmness of the Bassist to hold the structure of the track to utter most perfection simply inspires!!! Dayum the Chemistry these guys have.... #blown
Haha I don't blame you. One of the only reasons I love being a Londoner is because of the endless gigs. I saw alfa mist live once and am waiting for the next one 😍
yo no hype, this is one of the greatest live musical collaboration & performance on youtube, of musicians that are alive today. Please recommend anything else ya think is on this level.
Mansur is the only guitarist besides Prince that left me in complete awe after a shred. Spectacular talent! And Yusuf mastery over the drums was *chef’s kiss* This entire composition is a masterpiece
Пять лет живу с этой песней. Одно из самых прекрасных музыкальных откровений в моей жизни. После этого слушаю всех музыкантов кто здесь играл. Но к этой теме возвращаюсь постоянно. Спасибо за эту магию Alfa, Yussef, Rocco, Mansur🙏
Dude around like 7 minutes when Yussef and Rocco lock in, it’s so nasty. I can’t get the main riff out of my head that Mansur plays. This song is so infectious.
I listen to this song everyday. Sometimes at least 3 times in a row and it always makes me cry tears of joy. This tune is angelic and so inspiring. It's like ice cold spring water after wandering the desert for eons

His touch is so fine, and the pocket is great. Great combo. Beautiful tune, too.
The surgeon general recommends daily doses of Yussef’s beats.
Agreed
I’m listening to this while I try to calm myself down while on a shrooms trip. It’s doing a good job. This is my favorite.
10 months later...I hope you’re a changed woman. Bless bless queen! Hope the trip was transcendental and transformationally healing. 🙏🏾
I'm a huge fan of the other dudes on this song, but damn, Mansur killed it. Awesome musicians.
I religiously come back to this video everyday
best thing i've ever heard in my life
This is single handedly one of the best videos Ive ever seen on youtube. Not just the incredible music, but the way its affecting them all, infecting each person, its like a drug, an entity just taking over each performer and growing. One musician fosters the idea and gently raises it up, just for the other to pick it up from there and grow it even more. The ecstacy on Yussefs face is contagious. Nothing is hidden in this performance. Just pure unadulterated musical love. And I love that so much its hard to even put it in words. Love is truly the message, and these 4 people are fitting messengers.
Couldn't put it better myself, heres another one that makes me feel the same way, different style........ th-cam.com/video/mFSRCG4DrmI/w-d-xo.html&start_radio=1
very well put brother. glad to see others have the same appreciation for this work of art
Check out Snarky puppy, they've been doing videos like this for years. Truly incredible stuff.
Great post. 👍🏼
I haven't played this in years. The algorithm knew just what I needed!
Oh...
my...
God.
If you could drink gold through your ears...
it would taste like this.
Thank you.

poetic connection
I loved how the camera floated around the room, approaching each musician at their highlights in the song. Well done camera team!
I can legit play this whole performance in my head. That's how many times I've listened to it.
Me too even when I Play it while sleeping I hear it
Me too aha
My best homie recommended this and I love him for it
Ok so this is the greatest piece of music I've ever heard before
The calmness of the Bassist to hold the structure of the track to utter most perfection simply inspires!!! Dayum the Chemistry these guys have.... #blown
Its the palladino way
that's a careful observation...
@@robertgoodridge6125 Is he related to Pino?
I think hes Pino's son
Robert Goodridge he is Pino’s son
aight im moving to London then
Haha I don't blame you. One of the only reasons I love being a Londoner is because of the endless gigs. I saw alfa mist live once and am waiting for the next one 😍
Best city for music in the world imo. Not even a question.
Bro, preach. Fucking wow🙌🏿
you are totally spot on,london has it nailed on the gigs front,would not be anywhere else?
Again, it's unbelievable. I'm from NY, and I think London genuinely blows NY out of the water.
I smiled, I cried, I loved, I hurt. This performance struck such a beautiful chord. These ladies rocked and I hope they continue making music.
I’m sure I make up 1,000,000 of the views. Lol. This is pure gold
The number of gifted musicians in this room is unbelievable. Thanks for renewing the actual Jazz guys

this drummer has incredible poise and control
This must be the coolest group of people ever seen together in a room
yo no hype, this is one of the greatest live musical collaboration & performance on youtube, of musicians that are alive today. Please recommend anything else ya think is on this level.

One of my favorite pieces^
Mansur is the only guitarist besides Prince that left me in complete awe after a shred. Spectacular talent! And Yusuf mastery over the drums was *chef’s kiss* This entire composition is a masterpiece
Yeah Mansur has a very unique blend of chops and melodic sensibility, I'd say Prince is a pretty fair comparison
I agree
Every single member of this group can absolutely shred.
Rocco and Alfa mist quietly Slaying it while Yussef and Mansur going absolutely berserk! The flair of these 4 individuals is so unfair 😮💨
Such an underrated song. The world stops when I listen to this.
@@dsjndn1dsdad594 you first
That's the beauty of jazz. Probably they won´t repeat exactly the same melody twice. This piece is pure gold!!!
Yussef is probably my favorite percussionist out right now. The amount of energy and passion he puts into his music is beautiful. Thank you
Makaya McCraven is doing really dope stuff too. Check it out.
I agree, the passion that comes through. I could watch that for hours and hours and enjoy every moment of it
yeah, the new generation redefining jazz
totally agree with you
Let it be known Yussef Dayes is the god of drumming.
The music is great but I have to give it up the cameraman for moving in a fluid rhythm to each of the players. Nice.
Pino has got to be proud of his boy!
defintely. grande pino!
this might be the best mix of 4 tones on 4 instruments I've ever heard. Cohesive doesn't even come close......seamless.......perfect
The closest I seen to that is Earth Wind and fire, the old prince band, the roots band, Robert Glaser and the drummer Chris Dave
Пять лет живу с этой песней. Одно из самых прекрасных музыкальных откровений в моей жизни. После этого слушаю всех музыкантов кто здесь играл. Но к этой теме возвращаюсь постоянно. Спасибо за эту магию Alfa, Yussef, Rocco, Mansur🙏
Dude around like 7 minutes when Yussef and Rocco lock in, it’s so nasty. I can’t get the main riff out of my head that Mansur plays. This song is so infectious.
I guess this is the kind of jazz that plays in the elevators up there in heaven.
Rocco Palladino transcended reality here man was flying
Sounds like LIFE....ups and downs...joys and pain. BRILLIANT
Some might say jazz is dead, but someone still playing great music like this somewhere around the globe
Jazz is alive but can be difficult to recognize after all the facelifts and plastic surgeries.
This is not Jazz.
@@andym28 this is jazz's kid, modern jazz, inspired by hip hop, rock, rnb and everything in between while still having the soul of jazz
I miss real jazz festivals. With bebop, acid, modern and everything in-between while still actually remaining JAZZ.
I listen to this song everyday. Sometimes at least 3 times in a row and it always makes me cry tears of joy. This tune is angelic and so inspiring. It's like ice cold spring water after wandering the desert for eons
This was me this morning... It damn well brought me to tears 😭😭😭Its so perfect.
same here!
Me too. Every day. I put some of my friends, real music lovers, up on these guys. and they thank me every day. LOL
Musical Telepathy is what they practice. Ituitive grooving.
my favorite is welcome to the hills💯
Yussef + Mansur = ENERGY
