OH MY GOD!!!! I've been waiting about 25 years to see some live Headhunters footage!! This is just amazing! Thank you so much for uploading this I'm getting DOWN!
Nice, it's the '75 band that recorded the amazing 'Flood', a Live in Japan ' Herbie Hancock import' that is well worth paying for. It's got Dwayne Blackbird McKnight on guitar
I must admit that I'm a bit confused by this video. I thought Herbie Hancock started "The Headhunters"? But I didn't see him anywhere. Can anybody answer this?
Straight from Oakland baby! Legendary business. I'm still trying to find the original god make me funky. It was originally a tune made for Everett and Jones BBQ back in the day.
Groove gets funk’n NASTY around 25:00 - groove team Mike Clark (drums-still very active in 2024), Bill Summers (still at it 2024 w/ Clark in current HEADHUNTERS lineup-check tour sched) and the incomparable Paul Jackson on bass & vocals (died in Japan 2021-RIP)
Good old Winterland! Snuck in there when it was being demolished on a day the wrecking ball wasn't being used. Had to say goodbye to a place that had witnessed so much fine music like this.
abdul kareem Who says Herbie took a lot of flack for hiring a white drummer?? I didn’t know fake news existed back in ‘75 when I was 21! Regardless, Thrust put that bullshit to bed pretty damn quick! Mike changed the game with Actual Proof. Hasn’t been topped since!
@@thuxtaoh please. He was going for something different and pushing boundaries. It wasn’t all about precision chops back then-expression and experimentation had a moment on top before it went underground again in 1980.
Blackbird's guitar solo is the GOAT. He was channeling something from higher realms!
R.I.P. Mr. Jackson🙌
...yea i heard that too - so sad he was a so solid RIP
Blackbird McKnight is The Beast , at only 17 or 18 playing the hell outta that guitar !!! Plus Bill Summers beginning on Berumbau , off the Chains !!!
God made them definitely funky.
Funkiest band of all time, in my opinion, Paul Jackson on bass, again in my opinion, the best groover of all time......

Very true. What a rhythm section (as it used so quaintly to be called 😎).

Paul Jackson and Blackbyrd are like a fire
Brings back memories of great days you don't have any real music today they don't even know what a note is.
So much awesome musick to be found on YT ! Blackbyrd goes all Pete Cosey/Reggie Lucas here

@@abdulkareem-km9th fact, sad but true - and where are we now? MAGA racist cult getting WAY too close to the White House again… peace & love
Serious jam band!
i must admit that the wow in the sound actually contributes to the character in the same way that irregular frame rates affect early motion picture.

what happened to the guitar solo in If You Got It, You'll Get It, worst solo ever
He was listening to John mac but couldn't get the technique 😂😂
@@thuxtaoh please. He was going for something different and pushing boundaries. It wasn’t all about precision chops back then-expression and experimentation had a moment on top before it went underground again in 1980.
