Randy Porter, Piano Alan Jones, Drums Patrick Golichnik, Bass I think this was the early show. I saw the late show and it was FANTASTIC.

I am studying this cat to the damn best of my ability .. He swings like no other player today .. As one who followed Zoot , Benny and Getz this guy picked up where Brecher left off and i am trying my damn-est to copy his style at 85 yrs old .. bobby G.

I love how chad really winds it up as a blues in the jazz context should!

[@jambajoby32]

[@larry4589]

Pianist really developed his solo as did Chad!

[@paulward1586]

That’s our very own legend, Randy Porter

[@OscarRurzagasti]

...impossible not to remember Lee Morgan's incredible solo, whenever I listen to this song it happens ... very good Chad

[@ishaq24722]

THUMBS WAY UP, BRO---REMEMBERING LEE'S SOLO! That solo is considered by some to be one of the top ten trumpets solos of all time! Chad burns it up!

[@ISuperTed]

Chad as always shows himself to be one of the best Tenors on the planet but what a great piano solo! Great pacing, touch, feel and boy does it swing.

[@maxlevine4319]

It takes a special kind of legend to get Steve Jobs as your drummer. Respect.

[@rodogg49]

Vintage sound with Brecker chops. Glad Jazz is set for another generation

[@jackdolphy8965]

Art Blakey and Bobby Timmons are smiling, beaming proud of you Chad and Co., from wherever they are 👍🏾

[@thechesshistorian]

I'm glad the drummer went for it!

[@aldoutente1123]

Very beatifull piano improvisation!

[@geosekiro324]

I feel like the piano solo in the middle doesn’t get enough credit, phrasing is quite immaculate ❤

[@Booply1]

Dang, I am an uber driver in portland and always hype up the 1905. Had I but known you were playing I definitely would have taken the night off to see you. You're a legend in the making! Keep up the great videos and the amazing content.

Chad is very good for sure. I fortunately have a dear close friend who is the baddest in the land. Breaker was his mentor and close friend. Ed Calle. Dr. Ed Calle multiple Grammy winner. I'd like to see them both fight it out. He can play any scene but is, more accepted in Latin jazz arena.

[@louisthompson1020]

There are a lot of players of a horn , very few masters of a horn.

[@oribargil3958]

Tbh i was expecting the mingus moanin

[@dishwasherdetergent3366]

mingus moanin is the kind of tune that's very difficult to do justice without a big band

@@dishwasherdetergent3366 I think a septet of rhythm section alto, trombone, bari and maybe a trumpet or a tenor could get it done for sure though

[@shaneguasteferro5484]

that piano solo was absolutely disgusting

[@davegarred9015]

for realllll

[@abogatum]

The piano while Chad's solo was sooo lacking of..... everything. And then, I agree, the piano solo was so cold, planed and patern based. A missed opportunity to have Chad playing this song at a 💯 %. His level of plaing was well above the rest.

[@abogatum]

Good drummer and an inexperienced base player. Ok wish Chad will play this one again with the right band

[@davegarred9015]

@@abogatum I think that @Shane Guasteferro and I meant that the piano solo was fantastic when we said "absolutely disgusting"

[@abogatum]

So, I then I didn't understand what you meant as English is not my first language. But I still think Chad struggled to make the band be up to his standard and, actually, his enthusiasm while playing this iconic song. Few dare to play it as it is always compared with Art Blake's version and therefore most attemps are not successful. In any case Chad's alone made the whole thing work pretty well. He is a master.

[@flyingdics1]

About as good as this tune can be without a honking bari.
