The Bare Necessities (The Jungle Book Cover)

[@macedindu829]

This is what I love about Josh and Carson: you never know what's going to show up in your subscription feed, but you know it's always going to be good.

[@wenxizhao5879]

It's like jazz itself: you never know which next note will be hit, but it's always going to be the right one.

The solo was perfect

[@MsGavbo]

If you notice he is not trying to fill in all the spaces during his solo. That is someone with skill and talent. It takes confidence to let it breathe. Great job guys I keep coming back to this video

[@benpeterson44]

Josh's solo seems perfect. He totally nails the entrance to his singing part too. Excellent! Reminds me of Django :)

[@tntkop]

Learned your version on guitar just so I could play for my grandkids. Great job!

[@Lolc4k3]

The solo is indeed very Django inspired!

[@ThomasZachary]

This solo is nothing less than perfect.

[@gordonloree5341]

I hear Texas Swing

[@rachelwallisky1429]

The smile that Josh's face when he says "so just relax, yeah" is priceless. You can tell these guys have fun every time they pick up an instrument.

[@saygebrown2642]

this made my day. my dad died when i was 12, and when i was a toddler, this was our song. we loved the jungle book and would listen to this song religiously. anytime this movie or song is mentioned, i think of him.

[@thomascussans9844]

I am stunned by the astounding virtuosity of Josh. A silly, if winning, song made memorable by his endless invention and absolute precision. The musicality is startling. Staggering.

[@scottarthurs6299]

Well put!

[@mediamannaman]

They are both amazing. Carson voice is liquid gold and he plays a mean guitar. Josh is a guitar virtuoso with a very good voice. Together they make any song they perform sound as good or better than the original.

[@MVPhurricane]

i mean, josh is an absolute freakish musical talent, but oh my god carson's voice is just ... touches the divine. what an awesome combo. but yeah the arrangements that josh comes up with are just so insane-- the world is just sleeping on that shit. and josh's voice is super lovely too. but let's not shortchange how incredible carson sounds. I LOVE THIS.

[@Dgfer09]

Whenever Josh breaks out that guitar, you know it’s gonna be fire lol

[@jalbraam2516]

Something special about that One ;)

The solo is great. I can't wait to hear him when he's old enough to wear long pants!

[@Inigo_The_Son]

This brings back fond memories. I had never seen this movie as a kid, but in the 1980s I was a chauffeur, and I got to spend three days driving Phil Harris around Austin. During a break, I called my Dad to ask if he knew who this guy was, and he immediately broke into song, "Smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette...."

Y'all need to look into making cds of covers such as this. There's a whole huge set of the population of all ages who'd gladly pay for compilations of your interpretations of classics, Swing-era tunes, and the like... just delightful. Keep it up!

[@dlbstl]

Agreed!

[@belascialoja4812]

@alcogm - I'm not sure whether songs are like published fiction, but if so, there'd be no royalties if we're talking about tunes written long ago. With fiction, a book or story goes to Public Domain 75 years after the author's death. Maybe all intellectual property is this way?

[@tomask9588]

@alcogm Josh already released one such album with Larkin a few years ago.

[@cunard61]

@@belascialoja4812 I know that with photographs, they don't go into the Public Domain until after 70 years, OR the life of the photographer, whichever is greater. Copyright law in certain areas can be be very confusing.

How Django Reinhardt influenced is that solo. Quality. Brilliant!

[@thomascussans9844]

Stunned. Makes Django look like a part-timer. Astonishing exactitude and musicality. Speechless.

[@TheVeek192]

Really? Nothing makes Django look like a part-timer.

[@thomascussans9844]

@@TheVeek192 I apologise. I was a little carried away. Django, only ever to be revered, was and remains a startling genius, his two fingers picking out a dazzling array of sudden tunes with extraordinary precision. My point, badly made, was rather that Josh possesses a similarly inventive technical ability allied to a no less extraordinary musicality. Meaning that I think he can legitimately be compared to Reinhardt. But where Django's life was never less than high-wire, bordering on the slightly crazed, Josh is eminently sane. Both should be applauded, of course. Django as Caravaggio, Josh as Gainsborough? You decide. Both wonders, however. And I hope we can agree on that.

[@scottsummers684]
