Love it ❤

These young brothers out of Philadelphia are nothing but graceful and amazing in their style and present on stage a melodic sound unlike anything ever heard in the world of jazz fusion

Still out here fo fi fo in 2024.

Classic!!!!! Check out their version of “Careless Whisper” Absolutely brilliant!!!!

here is the interpretation that made me understand that I loved jazz deeply and forever and what can I say about this crazy passage on the piano...

Sin duda una de las mejores piezas musicales de la historia. Un deleite para los sentidos

The opening act that night was no joke. Reverie w/ Gerald Veasley!

I always love to the style of jazz bassist. They play so cool.

Wicked

Pieces of a Dream is a great jazz group and they were hitting there stride when Bass player Cedric Napoleon left group. They had to reinvent themselves when that happened. I saw them live with Cedric and without. And without they were lacking that it factor and that has nothing to do with taking away from the rest of the group especially James Lloyd who is an amazing piano and keyboard player. It just makes it seem how much higher they could have gone if Cedric didn’t leave. They would have been the perfect jazz group if they remained intact with also adding Randy Bowland on guitar and meeting Eddie Baccus, Jr. sooner on Sax. But with that said they still are an amazing group and don’t forget Curtis Harmon on drums. R.I.P. Cedric Napoleon.

🗣️🗣️🗣️PIECES OF A DREAM! A band with their own unique spices and flavours! This track is one of my favorites!❤🎉❤🎉❤

Wish I could play like that😂

Unforgetable song ❤

Beautiful Song

We truly miss Cedric who passed away in June this year! He was a big brother to my son who performed several times with him around 2015 thru 2017 up until my son left for college. I had the pleasure of taking Cedric on The University of Delaware's radio station (WVUD FM) hosted by Dr. Gloria James. We loved this brother and his wife and became such good friends. We check on his wife from time to time. RIP our brother. We really miss you. ~Brother Devearl~

Bad to the bone

Dudes from accounting rockin’.

What is the guitarist's name. And does anyone know the story behind Cedric leaving the group? I have seen the group with James Lloyd and Curtis Harmon perform live several times over the years. Always a great show.

Such a pleasure getting to know these fantastic musicians! We consider ourselves "family" just over the Delaware line! God bless all!

Remember these guys 🤔 Ceddy wearin that base out 😢

For a long time I didn't know what the title of this song was, neither who performed it, I thought it was Agent Double O Soul, but I identified it only about 2 years ago.
