How 'bout Take 6 featured on Jacob Collier's incredible take on "All Night Long" - probably 30 years after this Moody's Mood recording! th-cam.com/video/nspqYGz-Z1s/w-d-xo.html
When I listen to this, I'm hearing Brian and Patti, but I can't help focusing on what's going on in the background. Take 6 is working it out back there! They are awesome on this!
Those are eight REAL singers! Brian McKnight and Patti Austin sound great bending those jazz-pop notes, and Take 6's harmonies are too smooth! I never heard this performance before. Thank you for posting!
Lets us not forget the author of these incredible lyrics, Clarence Beeks, otherwise known as King Pleasure. He was a genius whose words for this and other great jazz tunes will live forever.
we will definitely forget that because your information is WRONG. song origionally written by jimmy mcHough and dorothy fields. th-cam.com/video/sjvK9nDWads/w-d-xo.html&start_radio=1 stop trying to white wash African American culture
@@roxannenoronhathank you for this trivia information about Eddie Jefferson. Had no clue he wrote this song and he was born in my hometown in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.
I Dedicate this song to my Dad, who could blow a Mean 🎷 Sax! Passed down to me. ...... I played for 1 yr....... It wasn't my thing but I Love the sound it creates!!! I Love You Daddy!❤❤❤❤👓
Kris Blake you have 2 idiots in the comments above that say she ruined the song. They obviously don’t know real music. One even has the audacity to say Amy Winehouse was a better singer than Patti Austin. Oookkk!!!
I was about 13 years old parent took me to see take 6 they came Florida in Broward county we was in the 🏢🌃 building 🎶🎶🙌🏾🙌🏾 ,,I was raised penacastal church🎶🎶 I was raised in the choir,, it was and still ah Honor to have seen take 6 face to face to naturally embrace music from my ❤️❤️ heart,,I'm not afraid to sing sololy anymore 😂 and my classic gospel I always listen 👂🏽👂🏽 to,,,I'm ah living breathing witness no matter what you won't depart from your upbringing 🎶🎶🙌🏾🙌🏾 Amen & Amen🙏🏽❤️💯💯💯
Brian doesn't add many vocal runs here compared to his usual live performances, but the ones he does add in this performance are soulful, tasteful, and perfect I think
Oh my Oprah DID have, omg… some jazz, on her show! Bravo. She had so much opportunity to teach the public about Jazz . Patti Austin is up there with the greats like Ella and Sarah.
This is a mecca to me. My soul reaches its peak when I hear Brian and Patti, but c'mon....Brian blows me away when he "tells it "to Oprah.."..let me get next to you.." I bust up.
Absolutely love this version better. Take 6has been a long time favorite since I was a young girl. God bless each of you. ❤❤❤ ***You can't be critical and complimentive at the same time ❤
Countless performances of this standard, done by the all-timers, are easily forgotten with this knock-out arrangement. With Quincy in front row, digging the proceedings, cant’ help but think Q had hand in charting the number. Take 6 and Patti nail this one. Thanks for posting. Aloha...
A very clever, vocalese version built around "I'm in the Mood for Love", the 1935 popular song by Jimmy McHugh and Dorothy Fields. This genre should be tried more often.
TAKE 6, Patti and Brian are just amazing!!!. Man!, Brian really takes my breath away! :P looks so great! and the way he sings :) I've got a crush! ahaha.
Who is watching this in 2019! Damn, Elliot Yamin's version lead me to this, always loved Take 6, this is like overload! I miss the old music, so much garbage music nowadays sighs
Take Six requires a hip, sophisticated ear. I remember a man I really dug. Thought he was pretty sharp. I played QUIET PLACE for him. Which has those soaring, killer harmonies that the guys do - I am nearly in tears whenever I hear them. They are THAT GOOD. Well, this person listening? Totally unmoved. I gotta admit, after that I didn't love him anywhere near so much...
Wow, wow, wow! That was so beautiful! Never heard this rendition before. I have the one by King Pleasure 1952 and played that all through my young adult life. Not taking anything away from King Pleasure, whom I love; but this singing and harmony by Brian McKnight, Patti Austin and Take 6 was outstanding!
@Stuart Cooke Point of correction , Eddie Jefferson was the author of the lyrics of Moody's Mood For Love .It was first recorded by Clarence Beeks also known as King Pleasure.
The whole time I listen t this, I'm listening to what's going on in the background. And, Take 6 is doing a phenomenal job back there, too! Brian McKnight and Patti Austin are doing a very good job up front, no doubt about that, but I love Take 6 helping to give them a lovely melody for their voices to play on. They do a gorgeous job of that:)
🤩 wow! Outstanding performance & beautiful song , originally sung & written by artist genius King Pleasure! This song was played religiously on WBLS radio station by Famous DJ Frankie Crocker every night at 8pm, on his “Quiet storm “ program before he closed out. So many memories when I was a kid growing up in the 70’s in Brooklyn, New York! This song is a classic! 👏🏾👏🏾😊❤️
FYI, Patti did the vocal with George Benson on his cover version of the 70's. I was just a little dude then but until I did my research, it was the only version playing at my house. She sounded about the same on that version with George as she did here..
Brian Would have Been the celebrity I wanted to meet in petson. I met him and the nicest person and very humble and stood there and let me express how I love his music. He wad so nice and concert so good my girlfriend became a bigger fan than I. Very nice, very funny and great singer. Had a diverse audience Young and all races and everyone knew lyrics to his songs.
Divine music, divine voices, divine musicality, divine artistry! Thank you so much for existing from Quincy Jones to take six to Brian McKnight. Thank you! Pamela Yamada Florence Italy
Thx I have this recorded somewhere on VHS oh how I miss those days. I would watch this performance over and over. I know it by heart. I love Take 6. Joey had crop. Alvin just started growing his dreads.
I remember seeing this on Oprah 12 years ago and when they sang this, I'm thinking,"There are 5 of the 6 members of TAKE 6 and Brian McKnight. Where is Cedric Dent?" Patti killed the track on here. She has an outstanding voice. I think it was a close tie between her and Nancy Wilson, who sang the original remake on the Q's JOOK JOINT album!
No auto-tune folks. Real singers with real voices.
Moody Mood for Love never gets old.
No not!!!!🤗🤗🤗
It's one for the ages !!!
Those aren't backing vocalists...
They are Take 6!
Check them out, they're one of the best close harmony group in the world :-)
The very best!
💪🏾Facts!!😍

You better Say it
King Pleasure the original the best.
Messaging from 2023 and I'm here to say music went in a totally different direction, and it ain't it! Miss these days.
When I listen to this, I'm hearing Brian and Patti, but I can't help focusing on what's going on in the background. Take 6 is working it out back there! They are awesome on this!
Take 6 is killing that harmony! Woooooow
Wow! Brian McKnight kills it and Patti Austin might be one of the most underrated voices in music! And don't sleep on Take 6
😂I absolutely agree ,take6 melodies help me relax/sleep, but I'm not in that place2 sleep on take6😂👍🏾👍🏾
now-a-days VERY few people can sing like that live
Those are eight REAL singers! Brian McKnight and Patti Austin sound great bending those jazz-pop notes, and Take 6's harmonies are too smooth! I never heard this performance before. Thank you for posting!
Take 6 are just amazing!!
I totally agree with you Take 6 is awesome
Best back up vocal band I’ve heard, that’s saying something.
Timeless vocal performance . This is forever !
Beautiful people, Great talents: Brian Mcknight, Patti Austin, Take 6 and the great Quincy Jones... I couldn't ask for more!
I miss hearing music & seeing groups & performances like this

It was Eddie Jefferson who wrote these brilliant lyrics (not King Pleasure)...Mr. Jefferson is so underrated.
@@roxannenoronhathank you for this trivia information about Eddie Jefferson. Had no clue he wrote this song and he was born in my hometown in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.
Not true. I wrote these lyrics
@@roxannenoronhaNot true. I wrote these lyrics in school
Patti's scat riff is perfect with the harmony to bring it home in the end..
Gosh that Brian Mcknight can make the coldest heart Smile!!! Take 6, Patti Austin & Brian was a great blend for this song!!!
Brian McKnight.......so great! I hear a bit of Stevie Wonder in his great voice.
+W. Blueman ME TOO!!
W.
Because they’re both amazing. 😉
W. Blueman • I see a lot of Luther Vandross, in his facial features, too. 👍
But better lol. Brian at his height might be top 5 vocalist all time
I Dedicate this song to my Dad, who could blow a Mean 🎷 Sax!
Passed down to me. ...... I played for 1 yr....... It wasn't my thing but I Love the sound it creates!!! I Love You Daddy!❤❤❤❤👓
Whoever disliked this must be deaf or just crazy
Hodaya Yahshar’el i think they made a mistake while swooning 🤣
Patti Austin walked out there & ripped it!!
Kris Blake you have 2 idiots in the comments above that say she ruined the song. They obviously don’t know real music. One even has the audacity to say Amy Winehouse was a better singer than Patti Austin. Oookkk!!!
Travis Armstead LOL just gotta ignore somethings when it's too ridiculous.
Definitely showed the young man up.. lol
It's one of the best versions I've ever heard of Moody's Mood and there's a lot of good ones out there
Queen Latifah version is great too ❤
I am going to request Brian sing this song next time and ruly. I love take 6 and Patti aldo. Jazz at its finest.
I was about 13 years old parent took me to see take 6 they came Florida in Broward county we was in the 🏢🌃 building 🎶🎶🙌🏾🙌🏾 ,,I was raised penacastal church🎶🎶 I was raised in the choir,, it was and still ah Honor to have seen take 6 face to face to naturally embrace music from my ❤️❤️ heart,,I'm not afraid to sing sololy anymore 😂 and my classic gospel I always listen 👂🏽👂🏽 to,,,I'm ah living breathing witness no matter what you won't depart from your upbringing 🎶🎶🙌🏾🙌🏾 Amen & Amen🙏🏽❤️💯💯💯
Brian’s voice is magnetic!
This is an incredibly DIFFICULT song to take on man. Only Take 6 can pull this magic off.
This video should have way more likes. Take 6 and Brian McKnight what else do you need Patti Austin of course.
Brian doesn't add many vocal runs here compared to his usual live performances, but the ones he does add in this performance are soulful, tasteful, and perfect I think
Moody's Mood for Love" has the most complicated melody of any jazz song I have ever heard.
He sings exactly as on Quincy's record Q's Jook Joint. I thought it was playback at first.
The melody blows my fucking mind lmao reevaluating my music atm
Expertly performed.
I love this combination of entertainers and this performance it was wonderful.
This is insane, but that ending was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh my Oprah DID have, omg… some jazz, on her show! Bravo. She had so much opportunity to teach the public about Jazz . Patti Austin is up there with the greats like Ella and Sarah.
Oh, I declare, I just git so giddy after listening to Brian McKnight and Take Six!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was there!!!
Lucky man!!
Antonio Leclaire omg luckiest i wasn't alive for those kind of music but i wish i was
!Wow! Wht a Blessing 👍
This is a mecca to me. My soul reaches its peak when I hear Brian and Patti, but c'mon....Brian blows me away when he "tells it "to Oprah.."..let me get next to you.." I bust up.
What a great combination! Only the best!
Absolutely love this version better. Take 6has been a long time favorite since I was a young girl. God bless each of you. ❤❤❤ ***You can't be critical and complimentive at the same time ❤

Still enjoying this in 2019 !
This is amazing. His control is just unbelievable!
Still listening to this may 2021
One of the most romantic songs ever!
Fantastic group to perform it, too.

CAME HERE AFTER HEARING IT ON THIS CHRISTMAS. THAT BACK IN THE DAY CAME OVER ME. WISH THE TIMES WERE STILL IN PEOPLE HEARTS 😢 LOVE THIS SONG ALWAYS...
Can't get enough of this! 🥰
Brian Mcknight reminds me of a modern day Nat King Cole on this
@0.52 "..come on.." That lady was in the moody mood feelin,
O my God...I haven't words, brilliant 👏
Just amazing, I could listen to this every day
This is a priceless treasure. Thank you for uploading this so long ago.
Those McKnight men(the brothers) !!! Those voices!!!
I always go back listening to this... such talent that can never be reproduced.
Wow, wow, wow! That was so beautiful! Never heard this rendition before. I have the one by King Pleasure 1952 and played that all through my young adult life. Not taking anything away from King Pleasure, whom I love; but this singing and harmony by Brian McKnight, Patti Austin and Take 6 was outstanding!

Beautiful! Takes me back to NYC sixties with Symphony Sid.
Saw them back when they were just getting going. Still good.
The whole time I listen t this, I'm listening to what's going on in the background. And, Take 6 is doing a phenomenal job back there, too! Brian McKnight and Patti Austin are doing a very good job up front, no doubt about that, but I love Take 6 helping to give them a lovely melody for their voices to play on. They do a gorgeous job of that:)
I enjoyed that to the max, made me think about my brother, who sings like that
Divinely executed!!!
First time I heard this version if a great song _____ wonderful
years later this is still one of my favourite videos on here :)
Awesome. I just can't get enough of this. I keep on listening to it.... Such beautiful beautiful vibes!
I'm obsessed with this song, courtesy of Amy Winehouse and I must track down any rendition of it!
King Pleasure has a rendition from 1952.
Check out George Benson's version from his "Give Me The Night" album.
Beautiful Voice Brian Mcknight ❤😘
🤩 wow! Outstanding performance & beautiful song , originally sung & written by artist genius King Pleasure!

Not much of a Brian McKnight fan but man, he is absolutely perfect in his delivery here.
FYI, Patti did the vocal with George Benson on his cover version of the 70's. I was just a little dude then but until I did my research, it was the only version playing at my house. She sounded about the same on that version with George as she did here..
Some of my favourite vocalists here! Patti is sublime. Brian is so under-rated.
mad thumbs up ....missin music like this....
Best backing vocals of the world.
I loved this and I love George Benson's version even More!!
This is brilliant!
Ohhhh...I'm remembering this on WBLS in NYC in the 80's.
Tears in my eyes
That's the best singing act I ever seen on Oprah
Man, we Black folk can't help being so dang COOL!!!
I can't believe I have never seen this. LOVE!!!
God, what a voices! Brian!!!! Take ^!!! And Patty Austin!!! THey are awesome!!!! Love from Holland!
The Cosby Show sent me here yall!!! I AM BLOWN AWAY........JUST SPEECHLESS!!! This is singing!!
I hope Brian sings truly, Moody's mood for love and nobody at his concert along with his other hits and the sings he sung at his last concert!!
THIS IS AWESOME : =)
Such a great music, love all this since i was 10 years,
Brian Would have Been the celebrity I wanted to meet in petson. I met him and the nicest person and very humble and stood there and let me express how I love his music.
