Well, I guess Eric was trying to be just like Bill Chase. He left out much of the first trumpet part. And much of the ensemble work here you hear second third and fourth trumpets, but no first trumpet. Chase was notorious for doing that as well. In my opinion, it sucks.

CHASE was the best, and this reunion/tribute was awesome. I feel very fortunate to have been able to see it live.

I think that had Bill Chase lived, trumpet probably would have usurped electric guitar as a "main ensemble instrument" in Rock & Roll.

eric played with Buddy Rich1980s

残念ながら宮城さんは、やはりBill Chaseのようなハイトーンの音域は吹けないようですね？

A very good try. It's hard to copy perfection and Chase was perfection. Most underrated band ever but then again, they had their own little niche that didn't appeal to the masses, except for Get it On.

The great Bill played second trpt. In the Kenton band w./ My trpt. Teacher & buddy Bud brisboi who was on lead.bud shot himself in the head in Scottsdale in June '78.he 's my brother! God bless you all !!!

Very good also a balanced sound.

NICEly done.

No band will ever duplicate their sound. They were amazing.

Who's on lead ?

Over 20 second title slide? Very unprofessional. Music is solid, however.

Maravilloso homenaje

This guy matches Chase pretty good. Chase was an amazing group. Nothing like it since, and nothing today even comes close. Most "noise" today doesn't even qualify as music, a bunch of boring, un-melodic, namby pamby, millennial mush.

If that lead trumpeter plays that well in his sleep, imagine how he would play when he is awake! Seriously, that was amazing!

Uh

Does any one know if any of these guys are the Original Players ! I Know Eric isn't But Eric is Great !!

I was not aware until now that Bill Chase was lead trumpet for MF back in the late 50's. No wonder I still listen to them both. I dreamed of being able to play like either of them as well as Herb Alpert.

Almost 40 years ago (yikes!) I attended Stan Kenton Jazz Clinic at Sacramento State college, Phil Rizzo was the arranger and the head jazz guy...lol I believe it was 1978. Jay Sollenberger and another trumpet player from Chase's third album (I cannot remember the name) were part of the "instructor band." We got to hear the play music that was written by third year jazz clinic students. It was a lot to handle as a 16 year old kid. 8VA takes on new meaning...

Why cant i get my King Cleveland 600, Bach 7c to sound like that? Lol

Holy Moly - GG Shinn STILL had the chops !

I saw these guys practice on my brothers living room on his farm in South Africa (he was their sound engineer on that tour). Incredible. Changed my life

Great singer...right up there with Alex Ligertwood. Everybody does a great job recapturing the mood.

What else can I say other than this is a masterpiece for all! Chase taught me how to play trumpet (I also play guitar). I am a musician from the womb due to their excellence! -Robbie

Incredible, Always liked Bill. That's like 5 sharps he could play in, if what my friend, (horn player) told me was right. We had a blast trying to play this stuff in school rock/jazz bands, at Berklee, every year, outside school cover bands. At least I did on drums, trying to keep up with the speed metal horns ! We had 4 or 5 trumpets, some low brass. Reminds me of another very good band/horn player back then. Earl Sherman and 1276, from Boston, MA back in the late sixties, early '70's. He could come pretty close to Bill's talent back then. Haven't ever seen anybody posting any video of the band "1276" he was in ... ever. I guess they never made the transition to originals, don't know if they wanted to or not ...

Great vocal.

Great stuff.......these players are amazing, but it does make you realize how just amazing Chase was. His pure power, sizzle, crisp/tight playing was in another realm of trumpet playing.

Yep, that's GG Shinn. I. played in his band here in Louisiana for 3 years. Best vocalist I ever worked with. We played again a few weeks ago at a reunion dance here in West Monroe, LA.

¡Con lo gordo que está este hombre, y ni soplando así se desinfla!... ¡¡¡Suena muy bien!!!

It is Shin singing. Wow. For the longest time, I thought that dude was black, just from the vocals. It wasn't until I saw a video of him from the Chase Japan concert and I'm like, "He's a white guy????"

Is that GG Shin on vocals????

Not in the same STREET!!!!!!!!!! I'm afraid.

love that bass player in back :)

Is Eric playing a plastic mouthpiece?

go steve!best player ever!!!!!!

These are all the original band members, except older and with short hair?

I am Japanese. It is 53 years old. It is very wonderful. CHASE

Anyone know who is in the brass section???

Job very well done ! ( clapping )

Very nice rendition ! Thanks for sharing and keeping alive the great music of a great band and leader !

Great song off the Ennea album

Interesting - I've never seen Eric using a crystal/lexan mouthpiece like he is here... A trumpet player to tackle the CHASE book like that is certainly NOT for the faint of heart! Kick it Eric!

Brilliant. One of my favorite Chase tunes!

Thanks. I'm a big Bill Chase fan from way back when my music teacher played some Chase for us. One of the reasons I became a music teacher.

I was sitting right behind you. Was a great night. I was fortunate enough to be sitting with Walter Clark's daughter. Was a magical evening that I won't soon forget.

I was at the ChaseRevisited and sat with GG. He's a great guy and has some great chops! Thanks for the bourbon GG- AK

Unfortunately GG seemed to be pretty plowed that night. Definitely impacted his performance.

Any other clips from this performance? Any other performances scheduled?
