It is a great feeling to know that there are people that appreciate music like this. From a bass player Thank you for hearing. And sharing the things that music the medium conveys.
Stuart Zender is an amazing bassist, no doubt! But he was in the company of some of the most amazing musicians living at the time who were all in their twenties. Please give love to the unbelieveable Toby Smith(R.I.P.) on keyboards, lyrical genius Jay Kay, the super funky Derrick McKenzie on drums and that killer horn section. Jamiroquai was one of the best live groups in the world performing in the 90's!
Most great bassplayers start playing good, mature basslines in their late twenties, at best. Zender started playing bass at 16 when he worked as a circus artist(!), played in a punkband(!) for 2 yrs, joined Jamiroquai and from the start played genious, funky basslines on a level far above most players before and after him. A true bass prodigy.
This firmation is like the USA nba all star team. Jordan era. There isn't a single flaw in this band. Every single body is tearing the shit out of their instruments and Jay (his voice). Just perfect dude.
Love Zender's use of space.. doesn't fill up the holes with grace notes but does add them tastefully.. bloody overplaying bass players don't get the negative space concept
@@sarascarpati887yes. From What i understand. He was 17 when he joined the band. And 18 when they recorded. And 19 on a world tour…. As the most prominent bass player in the industry. It’s incredible.
not really, jamiroquai is fine now with paul turner, they have their own eras, stu would be more suitable with the old funky hobo-style jamiroquai, but paul will suit better with nowadays jamiroquai
Agree. While I like this era the best and nobody can top Zender, I think Paul Turner is the 2nd best bassist they've had over the years. That dude is a beast, too.
Seriously, Mike Smith, the saxophonist, was/is obviously influenced by John Coltrane. Gotta love how the ending solo sounds like a straight tribute to the legend. Anyway, this has got to be one of Jamiroquai's best performances ever. I am watching this again after years, and I'm immediately pulled back into their groove.
Stuart's timing and fleetness of funk just grew and grew. Listen to this in '97 at Phoenix. He's even more completely, completely on it. Come back and hear here how he's just A TAD behind on some licks. He just got better.

You guys always celebrate Stu Zender, and you're right to do so. But you always forget the big influence Toby Smith gave to the band back then, in fact the whole band, Simon Katz, Derrick McKenzie...
Recently saw JK on his motorbike. My mrs and i were driving into brighton for the weekend and i saw him heading out. Didn't quite catch what bike it was but he had a feather in his open face helmet and shades on. Always loved jamiroquai since acid jazz days so it was a great way to kick off the weekend. Great memory.
god, he sings well in Lives. His performance is just.. incredible.. i knew him but never really listend him.. only now i see he is a great singer!.. and i was searching This track from long time ago.. thx satanpolenc

Dude, ive been trying to learn his style for a few years now, maybe one day ill understand where he comes from musically. No one holds a candle to his style, not even fyffe or turner as badass as they are, though fyffe was kind of closeish but not really.
ZENDER,IS A MONSTER,A DAMN BEAST ON BASS GUITAR!!! A LOT OF CATS,CAN PLAY BASS...BUT CAN'T GROOVE!!! ZENDER.IS A GROOVE (MASTER)!!! LISTEN,TOO THAT BASSLINE,BABY THATS GROOVEN!!! (DAMN)...JUST FUNKY!!!
Everyone in the band was under 25 at the time, amazing

It is a great feeling to know that there are people that appreciate music like this. From a bass player Thank you for hearing. And sharing the things that music the medium conveys.
I was 28 year'sold dear, great times...
amazing
Stuard was 18 or 19 in this
We all miss THIS Jamiroquai!!
Agree !
Facts!
True dat! This was the real deal lineup!
An amazing bunch of the coolest cats! The very best version of Jamiroquai!
It's rare you ever get to witness such a natural bassist such as stuart zender. The man had the groove. Nobody could take it from him.
I just learnt this bass line and then Zender plays it here completely differently to the album version... so smooth
Stuart is as smooth as hot butter!
The guitarist also deserves some love played tight af funky ah and right in the pocket great guitar tone
@@surfboarding5058Stu gets all the adoration because he left. But people never talk about his other work. I wonder why?
@@NotCharAznable the guitarist left even before stu
I love Jay Kay, but let's agree... Stu Zender is a legend
Jaqueline Moreira ye this guy is.... wonderfull
+Jaqueline Moreira His groove is soo tight !
kid could sure play.... still can, no doubt.. just wish he would!
If JK had actually paid him what he was worth he would probably still be in the band ;-)
he's a god
There is no bass player like stu, Jamiroquai was never the same without him.
Such a groove, such a creative bass player.
it doesnt seem to be stu
@@levanidusIt's DEFINITELY Stu.
The band lost its edge when Stuart lefted. What a talent.
I agree.
And Toby Smith RIP 🎉

The only person with a brain.
I’ve seen him 3 times, they are a phenomenon to watch, greatest funk band of all time in my eyes

From 1993 to 2003 this band one of the best on planet hands down. M
RIP original keyboardist and songwriter Toby Smith....epic song, huge loss :((
Amazing producer..i think he and Stu Z had a lot to do with jamiroquai sound..
This firmation is like the USA nba all star team. Jordan era. There isn't a single flaw in this band. Every single body is tearing the shit out of their instruments and Jay (his voice). Just perfect dude.
The musicianship is truly astounding, can't think of any modern band that can even comes close.
Listen to vulfpeck
Maybe Snarky Puppy.
@@claudevieaul1465Yup! Those guys are unreal!
No autotune, real music. Great to hear
the 90s was awesome. Even the mainstream had quality artists.
This wasn’t even mainstream
Love Zender's use of space.. doesn't fill up the holes with grace notes but does add them tastefully.. bloody overplaying bass players don't get the negative space concept
amen bro
it's what i love about him and Esperanza Spalding.. the art of leaving stuff out.
So true, and I love his passing notes too.. not what a lot of players would choose.. makes him very interesting to listen to
yeah I do love it when people keep it in the pocket
30 years since I have been coming back to this song, and others with SZ on bass. And I can still learn so much from SZ’s use of negative space.
Nothing as good as this today ;)
Give me back the Jamiroquai like this!!!!
Tremendous live version. That bassline is just super funky!
Jesus, Zender was only 20 years old then, and an insane bassist... :)
Y
Sender rules.....ony.second to Jaco and Melvin Davis..

@@liesje09williams83 20? Are you serious?
@@sarascarpati887yes. From What i understand. He was 17 when he joined the band. And 18 when they recorded. And 19 on a world tour…. As the most prominent bass player in the industry. It’s incredible.
Stuart Zender is a genius!
Really hope Jay Kay could make up with him and bring him back! without Stu jamiroquai is just a normal band
not really, jamiroquai is fine now with paul turner, they have their own eras, stu would be more suitable with the old funky hobo-style jamiroquai, but paul will suit better with nowadays jamiroquai

Zender ,Fyffe and Turner are all stellar players. No one better or worse than the other. All killer musicians.
Zender > Fyffe> Turner
One of the best live bands ever! The Funk Gods at their best!!!
That bass line!
That bass guitarist is OFF. THE HOOK!!! 👌👌👌
Wonderful band - absolutely brilliant bass player.
damn the bass line is just so funky
Seriously, Mike Smith, the saxophonist, was/is obviously influenced by John Coltrane. Gotta love how the ending solo sounds like a straight tribute to the legend.
Anyway, this has got to be one of Jamiroquai's best performances ever. I am watching this again after years, and I'm immediately pulled back into their groove.
I miss REAL organic music so badly ..Jay Kay what a gen you are !

Qué barbaridad, cómo toca Stuart Zender!!!
His voice is stellar an his groove is universali.
Why can't Jay Kay go back to writing jams like this. This is why I listen to Jamiroquai to this day. Music of my soul
@applecharlotte1981 sola is still with Jamiroquai.
RIP Toby Smith... You were too young to die :(
Far too young :(
What a driving bass line! Stuart Zender 👍
Mr Zender you are just innnnncredible on this song 'live" brilliant
There will never be another Jamaroquoi. I love the atmosphere his music creates and remember the day I finally owned his album.
Impeccable voice!!
I love this more than I can breathe, it reminds my little cat right now, I used to singing this song 😍😻💃💗🎶🙀😅😿😪
This is the first Jamiroquai bass line i learnt back in 98. Thanks to a good friend of mine Dave Troke.
this version is waayyy better than the album version
jaykay is always better live. it's a rare thing these days
I agree. Oh man, it's really time Jamiroquai making a new album.
No fucking way, it lacks the magic of the string section.
I wish I appreciated this music more back then.
Back when the line up for this band was at its best.
100%!
Jamiroquai forever. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This, Corner of the Earth, and Space Cowboy are flippin’ awesome man. Earth Wind and Fire would be proud.
Been some great musicians in this band over the years but only one legend.
wow! these musicians are incredible also the bass player & drummer really lock in their stuff!
Jay i can't live without your music 🎶 there i said it!❤️
It's all about Stu and that bass.
Brillantes jóvenes talentosos JAMIROQUAI por siempre ❤
One of best live acts that I ever saw.
So ahead of time with his lyrics
Best performance of this song!!!!
O baixo sempre foda!!!
Stuart Zender, mestre❣️❣️❣️
Vc sabe quem é o guitarra?
@@wellyntonbrito3942 como esse show de 1994, deve ser o guitarrista da formação original, acho que vendo os primeiros discos, deve tá a informação amigo, infelizmente de cabeça não sei o nome, desculpe não poder lhe auxiliar.
Now I close my eyes and dream of Peace and Jamiroquai
You guys always celebrate Stu Zender, and you're right to do so.

ophone1977 Thank you! You are so FUCKING right, I am actually getting tired of people only praising Zender (and Jay).
I agree, I think it's just part of a trend to only praise Zender.
Don’t forget Nick Van Gelder and Glenn Nightingale, whom played on the First album.
Que ritmo y que nivel! los inicios de un genio de la musica!
Se luce zender increíble lo que toca este capo
Jamiroquai without Stuart and Toby aren’t Jamiroquai...
Recently saw JK on his motorbike. My mrs and i were driving into brighton for the weekend and i saw him heading out. Didn't quite catch what bike it was but he had a feather in his open face helmet and shades on. Always loved jamiroquai since acid jazz days so it was a great way to kick off the weekend.

La mejor versión de este tema!!! Woooow
play a bassline like that is just ORGASTIC *--*!!
Jamiroquai for the fucking win!
An epic musical performance in every aspect. Love it until I die.
Years on, this is still a hard jam
Awesome voice and dancer!
jay is just as good as his original audio
i find this one better
Jamiroquai is a genre
god, he sings well in Lives. His performance is just.. incredible.. i knew him but never really listend him.. only now i see he is a great singer!.. and i was searching This track from long time ago.. thx satanpolenc
Excellent showmanship by Jay Kay, wish I could see Jamiroquai live.
It's a good bass player Stuart Zender !! yeah !
"What's the answer?
To our problems.
I think we've gone too high,
Little children,
Never said a word now,
But still they have to die.
It won't be long.
Dancing like we do now,
To put this sad world right.
So don't you worry,
Suffer no more,
'Cos we're too young to die" #JamiroquaiFanForever #TooYoungToDie
Blows me away every time.
That bass line is awesome! Stuart Zender💜💜💜
Toby Smith r.i.p.!
Stuart Zender is more comment on this video than the band itself,and I couldn't agree more. Long live the groove king!
insane songggggg one of the grooviest bands in history and they were just under 25 years old 🤯
Miss Jamiroquai the 90 s❤
Outside of Flea .... Sender is on another pedestal.... Killer Bassist ....
Zender
Best version ever that zender groov3 is 🔥
Stu was just 18 or 19 years old in this gig and yet have so much feel and just too tight. That Bassline is untouchable.
Zender was 20 when this was recorded. Daaaang. So good.
Oh so funky. Almost can't take it it's so good!!
Wish I could play that Stu style!
Dude, ive been trying to learn his style for a few years now, maybe one day ill understand where he comes from musically. No one holds a candle to his style, not even fyffe or turner as badass as they are, though fyffe was kind of closeish but not really.
this bass...great lines there Stu...
Geniune Classic class
Ha ha, Zender changed the verse bass line, paying homage to Bernard Edwards. Like it even better than the record. What a genius.
I miss stu zender hi from Puerto rico 🇵🇷❤
thank you zender... just this.
I love this version a lot more than the album one
@kcack23 I like hearing that...there is still hope for this world if someone your age is digging tis.God Bless you.
should of paid stuart zender more money all the funky tunes we are missing out on.
This live version is complete killer yes !!!
ZENDER,IS A MONSTER,A DAMN BEAST ON BASS GUITAR!!! A LOT OF CATS,CAN PLAY BASS...BUT CAN'T GROOVE!!! ZENDER.IS A GROOVE (MASTER)!!! LISTEN,TOO THAT BASSLINE,BABY THATS GROOVEN!!! (DAMN)...JUST FUNKY!!!
