This was my wedding song. It always makes me cry.
Rob Carter you sir have huge balls to play this at a wedding. Major kudos
Good choice. I bet your wife cries a log (for different reasons). Anyways, I'm on your side :)
bruh momentum didn’t know he married your mom
@bruh momentum i laughed ouut fuckin loud bbvahaha
check out romanian saxophone music, they play crazy stuff and it’s all double tongued, but they usually play at weddings. 😂
Steve Jobs is killing it on sax!!
Josh Smout lol
Ha
Funny, I thought was Steven Segal
Wait wuuuuut
Josh Smout Haha this made me laugh
Playing this song should be considered a sport.
Playing jazz is a sport*
no doubt, unbelievable,
Lol
Watching it certainly is, I just lost 5 pounds...
This is hard-jazz-rock! or hard-fusion if you like.
This is how all jazz should be filmed. With these random cuts to super high contrast, black and white, shots. And all jazzists should dress like Mikey here.
the Chick Corea Elektric Band music videos from the early 90's tick all of those points haha...

I am a jazzist
Like an unemployed accountant
R.I.P. brother Brecker...can you imagine the sax section in Heaven??
YESSIR!!
Jonathan Aviles
Jesus makes a little band: Jesus Jazz
How you know its Jesus? Maybe god is a hindu...
Jonathan Aviles I get that Coltrane has that legacy but I truly believe that Brecker took Coltrane’s technique and just somehow made it even better man.
@Jonathan Aviles 100 years from now kenny g on sop
There is a crazy bastard that plays Michael's solo ON A RECORDER!
And he looks like Keanu Reeves lol
@@roeeshteingart1257 link?
@@darkmephilez just search Michael Brecker skunk funk solo recorder
The recorder player is Benoit Sauve, I am a recorder player myself so I have watched that clip many times. Note that Benoit has his right hand on top, normaly you have the left hand there. If you think the clip has been reversed, I can tell you its not, he is playing that way. This also means that his recorder/s has been changed, for example placing the finger holes in a different way and also the way you drill and shape the holes. It is quite complicated to manufacture a high quality recorder. If you want to listen to maybe the best recorder player today, search "Kristine West recorder - Full Movie". This swedish girl is an outstanding musician, listen f e to the first piece by Vivaldi. The recording was made in Vätö church, Sweden. Enjoy!
@aubiestrawberry I couldn't believe it either until I watched the damn video and was fucking blown away.
" I have a weakness for horns like the Brecker Brothers ..."
Who said that?
Ridiculous bass playing
I transcribed it it's on my channel :D Took me a whole month!
Best solo ever. There's no argument . Michael is the most technically sound tenor player that ever lived.
Lester?
Alexander Johns he's close but brecker is king
Chris potter can't play blues though. brecker is the package
estouffl stouffl If Chris Potter can't play blues then I may as well throw my Alto out the window! Haha
Uhmm... Coltrane? Lester Young?
„How fast should we play the song?“
Randy and Michael: „Yes“
Till P

Aaaaaa
But is it fast _enough_?
Not quite my Tempo!
th-cam.com/video/Z30t0dtjP0o/w-d-xo.html
This is a better tempo it’s grooves
I’ve heard Michael Brecker play it much faster lol
what is enough?
labirbağabach
666 bpm
Insane jam. Jazz funk on cocaine
｢Some Skunk Funk｣の衝撃は未だ衰えず･･･これぞ｢クロス･オーバー｣の真髄！！｡
R.I.P･･･Michael .
Amazing band.
Michael makes me cry.
. The only recording I have heard at this ridiculous tempo. Monsters!
Check out the japan ones!!
My god, that section of the solo that starts at 2:36 is absolutely INSANE!!! It makes my head explode....in a good way.
Randy - "Just stop the song after his solo..."
We all know what head Michael makes explode😂❤❤ 🎷
I saw Michael Brecker at a jazz club in Uppsala, Sweden, in the mid-90s. On the last song he impressed by putting away the saxophone and sitting behind the drum set. Regular drummer hit with a trumpet and played amazing trumpet solo and Michael Brecker played amazingly well on the drums. I'll never forget this.
Fantastic. Randy Brecker did a master class at my high school in 2005 and I got the chance to play this song with him. He was amazing to work with. It's pretty sad, Michael got sick shortly after we worked Randy, and Randy broke contact with our band leader at that time. RIP Michael
Ian Krasnow Randy’s coming to the school I attend next month
This is how you play a sax. Michael Brecker is the man.
Of all of Micheal’s solo in Skunk Funk, this solo was the best version. This is the ultimate solo to learn for any jazz musician especially for a tenor sax player.
It’s one of his best solos and I’ve heard hundreds of them.
You should hear the guy who replicates his sax solo on recorder.
@@b6schilke996 who???
@@brEZ527Benoît Suavé
@@hughdat just watched it and my mind is blown lol. Never thought that something like that could be played on a recorder
Holy shit! Steve Jobs and The Hound! What a duet!
lmao. You got me XD
The mario kart vibe I get from this is too much, love it!
Haha, that Mario Kart 8 bass intro is priceless. Always look forward to that.
+Valerie Put it on 1.5x speed NOW!
+Joshua van Kuilenburg thats the main reason why I even play that game
Listen to the album Straphangin', especially Bathsheba!
Oh god I can imagine this going with a rainbow road 10x harder than the current ones
Probably one of THE best sax solos I've ever heard. RIP
THE best one !
What Da Heck???? Never heard this before and it makes most bands sound amaturish! This is HIGH musicianship!
For Everybody - " Don't try this at home "
What people gotta realize is that improvisation is like justice (well suppose to be) , BLIND. If you play blues, latin, funk, rock, swing, whatever.. you can improvise over it...Jazz has found it's play in almost all music forms. You don't gotta like what your listening to. Just respect it cause thousands of jazz musicians died so Michael brecker and you and I can learn there really isn't any boundries in music. especially jazz. Brecker is one of the few guys in his time that did it WELL in all!
Hey, ALL of these players are monsters, truly, there isnt even the remotest weak link on stage, but Chambers freaks me out, damn! Guys like that block many from ever playing, simply for the reason, they know they'll never get close.
Dennis...🤦🏾
You certainly won't with that attitude
I'm a sax player, and I think it's incredible!
The sax player (michael brecker) is awesome !
The Brecker Brothers are very amazing !!
literally the sexiest sax solo in existence. gives me chills.
that crunchy altissimo G at 2:30 ish...
+Joshua Forbes Omg, yes!
+Joshua Forbes Definitly, i haven't found better yet
somehow this arouses me ^^
y
I started my morning listening to this, couldn't have started it any other way!
Chambers is perfect!
Just the best .. Some Skunk Funk-The brecker brothers with Mike stern, fantastic guitar player.
Dennis chambers is a beast!!!
Real! Has that cat ever missed a thing, ever? I think not!!
@@zenobiawinston4607 not only the chops,.. The consistency of his bass drum and snare on the groove is not human
Some of the best drummers in the world have played this tune with the Brecker Brothers. But none of them can touch Dennis Chambers. I hope he is in good health.
@@tomasw6985 Richie man but ya Dennis is goat
@@tomasw6985Terry Bozzio also
In my mind the best solo I have ever heard.
2:38 sequence blew my mind
Randy, Michael, Mike, Denis... awesome crew, great funk jazz
His technical ability I feel is still unmatched to this day. Look at his ability to switch from normal notes to those that are harmonic or altissimo notes. Never ceases to amaze me
The levels of mastery are staggering, composition included!
I was born the day this youtube video came out. brecker is one of the greatest of all time.
this is THE Michael Brecker solo... amazing
Michael was such an overwhelming force. And all that music, in the psyche of a warm and gentle man.....
What a genial piece of music!! It's got everything, the funky groovy hook, mind-blowing jazz improvisations, enough complexity but also great melodies, all performed flawlessly by skillful technicians. Top5 track to bring to a desert island in my book.
Juan Luis Guerra playing the trumpet!!
今聴いてもこのアンサンブル凄すぎ！
We played this in high school, and I'm currently trying to re-learn it. So many hours of my life spent on these notes!!
+Erica the red head I wish I went to your high school! We didn't even play this in Conservatory.
inascoltabile ... tanto è la grandezza.......
I love how he opens his solo on this one....and the miles lick i can hear exactly where that comes from the one at 2:33
Right to the flat 5 but then a great line after that chord their playing on is tough
The bass is thundering the whole
Time love it
Those drums/bass from 2:00 to the break are just gettin' after it!
The SEXIEST tenor sax solo ever in jazz fusion history. RIP Michael
This is the apex of instrumental funk music
Wow I didn't expect to find this. Summer of 1992, I was there, in the audience recording the set to my portable Sony DAT machine. Michel Camilo also played that night with Dave Weckl and Anthony Jackson.
- an evening to remember......
Hardest song in the Real Book!
RIP Mike Brecker.
Even though I've played tenor myself since 1973, your stunning virtuosity never ceases to amaze me.
Thank you for everything you' did for the saxophone, for music, and for humanity.
Dennis Chambers can't be human. Holy shit.
As a french I'm so happy to know that my president plays the saxophone so good...
ha ha ha !
I've been watching this video weekley lately. Plus I've been watching it for about 3 years now haha.
Michael Brecker takes that horn to places it's never visited before.....and us along with it.....RIP Michael , bet you"re raising some musical hell in heaven !
sounds oddly sexual but yeah
one of the things i love about the breaker Brothers band is the rhythm section is always on point. the Bass player and the guy on drum set were ridiculously tight. Its amazing i love it!!
A little slow! But spot on😀
randy came to a town near me and played with my schools jazz band as well as like 5 other schools from the area. one of the greatest moments of my life.
just the craziest funk i've ever heard!!!
+Павло Молюков You should listen the panzerballett version.
Why?
One of the greatest songs ever. Great playin by all. Ty for putting this on u tube.
this is the most intense preformance, my personal favorate by the Brecker brothers especially Michael, may he rest in peace. I THINK THIS IS BEAST!
I have regularly revisited this exact performance since around 2008
A pocket has never been tighter
THIS is one of the most difficult song to play i've ever heard, almost impossible.
Best saxophonist, over all, Michael...
this is like the greatest song by the brecker bros ever
i love it
i wish i could play like that
32 years and still best sax solo ever played. rest in peace mike.
May the Gods bless Michael Brecker!. †
Brecker is rushing and dragging, rocking the tune big time. Such an inspiring musician..
Le jeu de Randy Brecker est tellement clair et propre ! Wahou ! Enorme!
Ils sont tous monstrueux mais j'avoue que le solo de trompette est ultra sexy
I nearly cried of disappointment when I listenend to brecker solo and then listened to those musician at Eurovison with their fucking child music...
Super hero players, all. Holy crap..... those were the days ...
Something cool: I thought at times James Genus was playing slap, but it looked he wasn't doing it except after the start of Randy's solo, but then I realized that the bass drum and the bass had a hit at the same time, so that made it sound like slap.
Michael will be missed...simply the best.
his overtones are so inbelievable powerful! this recording is awesome...
This is playing at the highest level - Michael's solo has such a virtuosic and aural awareness that is given to only a few! - a great composition.
2:26 Holy Fuck. He is a God.
I love randy's style, i think that he, aswell as bill evans (sax) and stern, has contributed to create a particular jazz sound that i can't resist ^_^
Monsters Inc.
This is the best version of Some Skunk Funk i've ever heard.. So much better than the recording.
2:53 Are you kidding? I could play my whole life and never be able to get that sound out of a saxophone.
Legends.
Bar one the fastest M Brecker solo... and that means damn, crazy, fast.
Mike's saxophone virtuosity is so advanced it's sometimes difficult to witness it as actual, possible. A modern day Paginini......
Mikes solo here isn't as unbelievable as back in the 70s. live version on cd was the most insane thing I ever heard with waaa pedal!!
have you seen the solo he does in the 1993 version of this song? Its so incredibly fast and awesome that I couldnt believe what I was watching. Just type in "Brecker Brothers- Skunk Funk 93"
this is how I open with my first line of coke
Mr Chambers on drums ! My wanna go to electric acid jazz whatever funk 🤩
Hands down the greatest jazz/funk fusion piece of all time. Thank you Brecker Brothers!
this song works like this: listen a couple minutes then open new tab window from browser and start to play this song again from the beginning (or random point). On top of each other...yeah xD
Wow terrific 😛. I know various album versions but this live whoaaa.
Mike Stern too there. Pure Pleasure, Happiness creators.
31 years ago, I watched the Michael Brecker Band in Tokyo (with Mike Stern, Kenny Kirkland, Jeff Andrews and Omar Hakim). I split a cab back to the hotel with Michael. It was my first trip to Japan and I was really jet lagged. On the way back, we discussed this tune.
that was incredible....just incredible!
I can't imagine the number of times they played this tune, but it's never ever boring. This is amazing !
Michael is beast mode
1:15 is the best opening line i've ever heard
Definitely how you should lean into a solo break. So many players leave it open. You gotta carry the energy and intensity from the rhythm section, or create it yourself.
I missed it until you mentioned it. Incredible!! Thanks for pointing it out.
Wowee, that was great!!! Excellence!!!
That riff that starts at 1:35 is the nastiest lick ever.
What the fuck what that sax solo. I thought of giving up listening to it.
5:36 - dat note doe.
It was 1992 in Barcelona.... Chambers = Killer
