Seriously, my BFF is a sound engineer, and the great ones rarely get noticed because they do their job so well that you take for granted that they're there. This engineer killed it!
Maybe I missed the point by not reading all comments _or_ not being a native english speaker to get it right ... but I love the bass - the way it's played, the sound, the mix ... like from me! And to avoid any discussion - this referes of course to the bass player and not the wood ... ;-)
The energy is nuclear in this performance. Killer playing, I wish to have half of this funk in the future. Edit : that bass line is illegal in 17 countries.
I am sorry to be commenting once again over the same video, but my brain could simply not grasp it all at once. Having just heard a second time now, I must admit this was the most outstanding performance I have heard from this band. Every single time, you surprise me in a different, yet most wonderful and fresh way. Its a band unlike any other, where their product seems to come out of a willingness to surpass the best of themselves and bring to the audience a work of art, full of detail, care and hard work. They ("you" maybe, if I have the honour to speak to a reader from the band ) could have stayed with the "same old song", exact same setting, music style, length of recording, sound effects, and sell their work to the fans, ultimately following a band career as all the rest, but instead.....oh boy, they prefer jumping into the wild like this and experimenting over and over again. But the result....well that I'm sure you just heard, there is quality in everything, even in the guy who probably brought the red carpet to the Studio. Be sure to have this clear in your minds, you will not find such fine team work such as this, so hear it, love it and share it!
I can't imagine seeing this hurricane of a performance live. Just on the vid there is so much power it cracks through the screen and makes you jump to the groove.
these guys are seriously the best organized and timed band out there atm.... everything so tight yet so much soul packed into every detail!! world class!
I followed the main squeeze for the singer and guitarist. They are friggin amazing.....then I tune in and the drummer blows me away....then the keys.....then the horns.....this band isn't just awesome, its an education. Its like a basketball team with 5 superstar point guards that somehow figured out how to be awesome together!!!!! You guys are am inspiration and are an example of just having fun!
Can't wait to see what happens when they bring a professional Kazoo player to their recording sessions. The connections of this people are just pure gold!
my husband and I thoroughly enjoy everything you artists put out. The talent of your group is far under valued. We love you and appreciate you sharing your music with us! Keep your passion shining through!
I've seen this band live 5 or 6 times and they've always been tight but it really seems they're reaching new levels of funk, groove, and just pure musical joy during quarantine. When there is a post-Covid tour I will be in the front row.
Wow! These guys are phenomenal. How could I have not known about this band? Support them by buying their music and merchandise. I have to see them when they tour. I'm speechless.
Although the entire band is incredible, that bass line everyone is replying to that's rolling this timeless tune along is not only from the awesome chops from a talented bassist but also that he has his hands wrapped around that Sire Marcus Miller V10 bass to showcase it. The entire Sire line of instruments is dripping with workmanship and quality:) BTW- the entire band has a great chemistry, hope you all continue to do this more often!
I don't know if it's even possible for you fellas to disappoint. I keep coming in with sky-high expectations, and leaving with those expectations smashed. Never stop.
Coming from a musician and guitarrist myself: You guys are absolutely AWESOME!! I discovered you guys around 1~2 years ago from youtube recomendations and since then your videos and lives are always playing here in my house!! Cheers from BRAZIL! And keep up the good work!! I love when you put your own style into the cover!
I thought I've heard funk before Now that I watched this. It's a bittersweet feeling. Glad that I got to experience this, but I don't think I'll hear something funkier in my life :(
I'm a simple man, I see The Main Squeeze put out a new cover or song, I click on it, I click like, and listen, I know what to expect, they never disappoint.
Excellent performance y'all. I worked-out on my bass along with it. And like it says in the comments below, fantastic sound engineering to bring it all across so nicely. You know it when congas sound that crisp. Cheers from London.

This wasn’t a song. It wasn’t even a jam. It was a party, and everybody was there. You did James proud.
...And Brotha’ James was there. Just look to the shadows...
🕺🏽🎼🕺🏽🎼🙏🏽
@@richmck007 agreed. You can’t get this funky and him not appear to join the jam from beyond.
The sound engineer who set up the mixing is a real pro.
Sadly we are underappreciated. But that makes it fun, at the very least for me.
You can even see the X-32 in the corner. Nice console.
!qaqa
@@joyathanasius21 As a pro musician - thank you guys.
True!!
Seriously, my BFF is a sound engineer, and the great ones rarely get noticed because they do their job so well that you take for granted that they're there. This engineer killed it!
The bass is mixed waaaaaaaay out front*
*Exactly where it should be
Their crew does all the things just right.
accurate
i miss the bass, bro
Maybe I missed the point by not reading all comments _or_ not being a native english speaker to get it right ... but I love the bass - the way it's played, the sound, the mix ... like from me!
And to avoid any discussion - this referes of course to the bass player and not the wood ... ;-)
And even if it would hit separete like buttons for every single musician in this video - as a bass player double-like for the drummer here!!! Great!
The energy is nuclear in this performance.
Killer playing, I wish to have half of this funk in the future.
Edit : that bass line is illegal in 17 countries.
I’m sick and my only prescription is more of that bassline
Explore the space!
Dr. Funk is here to deliver!
and more cowbell !!! ..... :D
If you overdose we can inject you with pure treble to bring you back.
That's one of the coolest trombone solos ever!
great jam, but we must give some love to Jonathan D. (engineer) and Reuben G. (mixing)...Sounds so good!
This is NASTY, damn!
Nasty, dirty, filthy and funky.
Doctor: you only have 15 minutes to live.
me: can you get me 13 more seconds?
Amazing hahaha
@@MainSqueezeMusic ❤❤
i think i'd still watch the first 15 min of Slane Castle ;)
Yeah! GET UP NOW
You get a solo,
You get a solo,
everyone gets a solo
as it should be
Oprah Winfrey over here lol

Was ist deine lieblings Yoga Übung?
Now now, the world can't run without a fine black man singin some funk. Amen.

Agreed...but you didn't mention THAT DAAAAMN BASS YO
THE BASS
My neck has been successfully worked out.
Same here
That's what we like to hear!
🤣
My booty has been successfully worked out. Wait a minute… That didn’t come out right.
A s a long time sufferere of self inflicted whiplash, i can attest this music helped not one little bit, but Damn my neck is loose.
That feeling when you get to the trombone solo, and realize there's still 10 minutes left on this ride.
Someone needs to let Robert Plant know that we found "the bridge". There's a few of them actually. He'll be spoiled for choice.
Here's that confounded bridge
Gold comment!
I can't believe we found the bridge!
this comment is GOLD bro
the attention this comment has received is proof that the main squeeze have a spectacularly cultured audience
not that i doubted it for one second
Maaaan playing in a band like this is the fucking dream! You guys keep going! The world needs this energy! Love your music!!
Can't wait to see what happens when they bring a professional Kazoo player to their recording sessions. The connections of this people are just pure gold!
That guitar solo - just goosebumps! What a talent! I would have loved for him to elaborate a bit more.
Watch their cover of Have a Cigar. Thats one if the greatest guitar solos ever
petition for them to cover “i wish” by stevie wonder
yesssss please
I second that man! That's right in their wheelhouse
thirdded
fourthed
Fifth-ed.
I honestly believe James would be proud of this band.
I wanna hear y’all do superstition by Stevie wonder! Come on guys bring some more funk! :-P
Ooooooooo yea baby.....now that would be some great shit... and a bit of stevie ray vaughan style guitar to throw in the mix.
THIIISSS would go so damn hard!!
It is unfathomable how this does not have millions of likes.
15 minutes of pure funk! That's the spirit. I love it!!!
my husband and I thoroughly enjoy everything you artists put out. The talent of your group is far under valued. We love you and appreciate you sharing your music with us! Keep your passion shining through!
Guy on the trombone FEELIN' it. Great job everyone!
killed it!
Absolutely mind blowing. Incredible performance. I wish I was there.
I've never heard better cover for this song, it's the best with miles ahead. It is simply extraordinary.
Main Squeeze never disappoints .. Having seen James perform up close 30 feet away you gents did him proud Sing It Loud Get On Up Y'all Yes Yes indeed
The human body have 206 bones in it
And every single one of them was moving during this video
I've seen this band live 5 or 6 times and they've always been tight but it really seems they're reaching new levels of funk, groove, and just pure musical joy during quarantine. When there is a post-Covid tour I will be in the front row.
The funkiest cover you didn't know you needed in your life until now. Hot damn!
Peition to have these gents cover "sir duke" by Stevie Wonder. We needa hear that BASS on that tune
Agreed!
Holy f*cking sh*t.
And the Bootsy bass. 🔥🔥🔥
YES YES YES
i hope we're getting a breakdown of this Michael. but im still looking for those vids for Squeeze's No Quarter and Redbone covers :p
started the video thinking "wow, 15 minutes is looong"
ended the video thinking "awww it's over already?"
the same with me man! hahahaha
Good God DAMN this is where it's at. Any chance of covering David Bowie's "Fame"? You could take that groove for a walk around the park.
Yes! I'll second that.
Probably the most timeless artist I’ve seen in my lifetime.
Love this! My local reggae band played this and dedicated it to me on my 21st birthday. Always gives me nostalgia
first!
second! Miss your concerts in Bloomington!
Awesome!!
That's cold blooded.
ha
You cheated though.
excellent performance and energy, you guys know how to have fun with music, you are amazing
I love how loud the bass is in the mix.
Just saw this cover on TikTok immediately had to come watch it this is incredible amazing job
Everybody is afraid to do James Brown. This band NAILS IT!
You guys make an amazing band! Every single one of you are connected to each other and to the music!
Goin crazy how can u not respect The Main Squeeze's musicality genius gangsta no cap
Wow! These guys are phenomenal. How could I have not known about this band? Support them by buying their music and merchandise. I have to see them when they tour. I'm speechless.
The only video I ever hit the like button before playing
My biggest lesson of 2020/2021- never underestimate the power of music and it’s ability to turn your mood around
5:20 every Honda in your neighborhood
i call it the nascar solo
Great horn players.... Incredible bass and drums!! Very Nice!!!
That bass line is a grown man’s aphrodisiac.
O my god. Thank tou so much for sharing.
My silly smile on my face while listening your great performance!! It's hard not to bounce with your good vibes!!!
Un abrazo from Spain!!!
I LOVE watching professional musicians. Absolutely fantastic performance.
Guys, you killed it with this. JB would be proud!
Sho did
James Brown would have fined each of them $20, just because he could.
Although the entire band is incredible, that bass line everyone is replying to that's rolling this timeless tune along is not only from the awesome chops from a talented bassist but also that he has his hands wrapped around that Sire Marcus Miller V10 bass to showcase it.

i discover the main squeeze during the pandemic and it has been such a blast to hear them!
Excellent! Would love to see you all cover the ultimate funk piece -Love Rollercoaster - with your original Dr Funk kicked in the middle.
I don't know if it's even possible for you fellas to disappoint. I keep coming in with sky-high expectations, and leaving with those expectations smashed.
Never stop.
If this ain’t playing in my funeral, then I ain’t dying.
Bass = God
GOD IS FUNK IS GOD
Undeniably
I didn't know tha bass player had it like that!
he looks like kanyes younger brother
Thats all
Please do more funk and soul covers just like this love it
Thank you!! Amazing!
Poppin’! Love the congas, but missing some sax. Smiley is working it!
Coming from a musician and guitarrist myself: You guys are absolutely AWESOME!! I discovered you guys around 1~2 years ago from youtube recomendations and since then your videos and lives are always playing here in my house!!
Cheers from BRAZIL! And keep up the good work!! I love when you put your own style into the cover!
They are the "Hardest working band in Lockdown"
QUE DE PTM esa guitarraaaaaa! good!
I thought I've heard funk before
Now that I watched this.
It's a bittersweet feeling. Glad that I got to experience this, but I don't think I'll hear something funkier in my life :(
Vulfpeck - It Gets Funkier II
@@TastyChevelle But that's funk in a low volume.
This one is a funky punch right in the face
We can just hope this type of funk gets resurrected every once again to remind us that funk is still alive
I see more funk in your future...
Now you can't get the funk out of your face. ;)
Fantastic! Thanks a lot!
What a bassist!!!!!!!!!
What an amazing start to my day, got out of bed dancing! Thank you!

@@MaximillianNewman you are somethin' else man! Simply amazing!!!
is there any way to watch this video more than 4 times in an hour?
I'm a simple man, I see The Main Squeeze put out a new cover or song, I click on it, I click like, and listen, I know what to expect, they never disappoint.
Amazing as! Thanks! 🙏
Daamn! I swear I was sitting when I pushed the play button. Now I'm dancing all around the room and doing handstands 😄
Excellent performance y'all. I worked-out on my bass along with it. And like it says in the comments below, fantastic sound engineering to bring it all across so nicely. You know it when congas sound that crisp. Cheers from London.
Oh you _know_ this wasn't gonna end until Max had a say. Damn, that was fun.
The finest desk-jamming I've done in quite a while. Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!
Damn, that was 🔥! You guys did the JBs proud! JB, Bootsy, Catfish and Fred Wesley would all say you mofos are SUPERBAD!
Bassist so good~~~~
On Point and In Pocket!! Nothing more need be said. Mr Brown would be proud (and pay everyone their money for not missing any hits). Funk On!!!
amazing!!!!!!!
that's what i call a JAM
Crazy! Soooooooooooo beautiful!
I’m so glad I was introduced to you guys!!!🥲 Amazing job!!!
Bassist ate it ❤
Straight FIRE!! Damn that was awesome!! The Brass added so much great job fellas.
It's Saturday Night Live! Featuring music by The Main Squeeze! ....Maybe they have. I don't watch it anymore.
Diggin' that rhythm section. Get it y'all. You guys even got my dead leg bouncing, I am sanctified!
The talent is amazing. You did this justice
You guys are so underrated, you really are an inspiration
Wow! what a Retro Funk Masterclass!
Wow I thought the keys was killing it. But then the trombone *really* killed it.
