The horn section is so tight and clean!

[@RyneMurray23]

Insane talent. All of them

[@MrSax2013]

tooooo TIGHT like scary Tight👏🏾

[@gustafsone]

Michael Nelson is a wizard with his horn arrangements. I've been following Cory Wong for almost his whole career, and ever since he started collaborating with the Hornheads, and Michael doing the horn arrangements, it's been one of the best musical adventures I've ever been on! OH, and lets not forget adding Dave -freaking- Koz into the mix, of whom Cory is a huge fan of. I'm just beside myself having been a sax player in my more youthful years and idolizing Dave. I'm just so happy I'm a part of all of this experience, even if I'm just an avid listener. I feel so privileged!

[@larukawei6307]

Ronaldinho on bass😁😁

[@user-gf6gf2iy2k]

I'm just relieved to see The Punisher has found a happier path in life, playing drums for Dave Koz and Cory Wong.

[@matthewmitchell1604]

This whole album is fantastic, but this song is easily the best track. The tune itself is stealer, the arrangement is so so tight, the energy incredible. Been waiting for this video to drop for awhile!

[@paulnereyes5069]

This is a remake of one of Dave's Oldies but GOODIES!!

[@lizpedano1542]

I am so excited ... Going to see him ... September 17 2021 at the Riverside Casino... on Delaware Ave ..in my hometown city Philly... just can’t wait 😊

[@parkthoven]

I bought "The Dance" CD long ago and this new rendition is GREAT~~!

[@OS-yg9fr]

i would like to dance to this song with you matthew im a guy

[@feelinggrape]

It’s an old tune by Dave. Classic.

[@NealS-js7iq]

Dave's grin coming out on top of the modulations @ 4:58 on epitomizes my definition I gave my daughter six years ago when she asked by my daughter what is Jazz? “Jazz is the music when the musicians are having more fun than the audience.”

[@tommyberk.2793]

Some of the cleanest, most powerful playing I've ever heard. It's groovy, it's fun, it's exciting, and it's unique from start to finish. Absolutely STELLAR track!

[@ravisworld6542]

i don't drink coffee, I watch Dave Koz perform.

[@twagenknecht]

Patek Philippe would be jealous of the precise timing that was orchestrated in this hit. Like a well oiled machine, this band knows WTF is going on. Well done guys.

[@brandikirk6293]

Who is patek

[@siasizani4666]

This song is the only memory I have for my grandmother , may she continue to rest in eternal peace ♥️🙏

[@gruweldaad]

A song that came out in 1999? Bot.

[@rosalindgibbs3705]

I just want to say I ❤ that song... 🎷 🎷 🎷.

[@34lemme]

How does this song make me feel ‘nostalgic’ even though this is the first time I’m hearing it? Great work from Dave, Cory, and the boys!

[@wreams2964]

Literally. It just pulled a sob rock

[@sandiadhitya7993]

This song was literally put on as thesis material in Indonesia (in Indonesian Language only) digilib.isi.ac.id/1883/ "ANALYSIS OF TOGETHER AGAIN'S SONG AND THE CHARACTERISTICS OF BABY SAXOPHONE IMPROVISION DAVE KOZ (1963~) ON THE WORK IN THE PRESENTATION OF THE JAVA JAZZ FESTIVAL 2012." So it has a special spot in Indonesian modern music culture and indeed a nostalgic piece 🤩 Best regards from Indonesia 🥰

[@RyneMurray23]

The horn section brings me vibes from the band Chicago.

[@davidstephen4457]

How are you doing

[@adamschwartz2768]

He released this song in 1999 on his Album The Dance. It got major air time in retail stores and grocery stores. Uni likely heard it long ago without realizing it!

[@geoffpm]

Dave’s sigh at the end of the song was such a release. Incredible arrangement and stellar playing. Amazing !!!!!!!

[@MrRodF]

The pause part + super cool drums & sax solo simply killed me.

[@Nedwin]

No argue, Dave is still the best sax player even until today. For decades, his music is everywhere, in news, sport shows, movies, talk shows, radios, retailers, ads, product brands, etc. I thank Cory and friends to add him to the performance. I myself has been in music since I was a kid, I played drum and keyboard as mid schooler, and guitar to my favourite instrument in high school. I played music in cafes when attending college and now I play music in my spare time at home. Dave's albums are one of the most influential aspects that support my musical journey for all this time. His solos, notes, lines, runs, compositions, and everything has made up and inspired many of musicians that we know today. I am glad that his age doesn't affect his musical ability. Be healthy and be blessed, Dave. I'm your biggest fan!

[@HadiyantoTandoko]

DEFINITELY THE BEST VERSION EVER ! Been listening to his music for 3 decades and certainly brings back nostalgic moment. Stellar!

[@45Blackjack]

To me it's a tie with "Rick's Cafe Live" with Rick Braun. 😎👍

[@andyjames6664]

There are no words! You just have to sit back and let the music take over.

[@bgabriel6532]

Loving that every time I go onto KZbin there is a new Cory Wong and Dave Koz video. Keep the summer of funk going!

[@FiragoMusic]

That crescendo out of the drum and sax break - PURE GOOSEBUMPS!!

[@ariarbian8963]

this band is crazy, dave koz sooo damn great !! like the drum n dave part so much

[@scottmccrimmond6377]

Dave and Cory just have some of the best chemistry I've seen, musically and otherwise. There is such a mutual respect, understanding, and admiration between the two of them and they really bring out the best in one another. For those lacking context, there is an interview where Cory talks about discovering and falling in love with Dave's playing while watching videos of sax and drum solos online. So for Cory and Dave to take one of Dave's all-time classics, record a stellar updated rearrangement, and include a drum and sax breakdown.... magical!

[@ashieman4534]

The opening bars sound like they're from Mario Kart SO GOOOOD

[@manben5665]

The best!!!!

[@mrhoffame]

This is the very song that made me a Koz fan over 15 years ago!!!! Blow boy!!!!

[@Heavyperro]

Same! Played this album at my wedding on repeat lol!

[@pikachuchujelly7628]

One of the few soprano players who sounds good on the high notes. His tone is amazing!

[@nelsonwhaley6348]

Hard to beat this funky, jazzy, tight, syncopated sound...brilllll!!

[@desmondruhling]

[@MrSax2013]

That arrangement is just insane BEAUTIFUL!!!!

[@gregkavonius2146]

That was frigging fantastic!!!

[@BirdmanDeuce26]

Hearing this pop up on Cory's album was an incredible treat. I actually remember when this track was new, back when I was a kid; my mom used to always have the jazz stations on when I had to stay with her at work and it was part of the soundtrack of my childhood. To hear the signature chorus lick vitalized by this group's arrangement was an incredible past-meets-present experience that felt like a theme coming together full circle.

[@MosterEnergy]

Awesome! Love it!

[@robertwelch1549]

FANTASTIC arrangement with the brass! Love the synchopatic drums! Sounds great as ALWAYS!! Love ya Dave!

[@RodrigoMendoza-xe8uy]

[@judegrishkat7074]

I am in love with this album. I can't believe I never heard Dave Koz before. Must be because I live in NC. I am blown away with his music.

[@drehsaxysmusic9940]

I could never imagine this song can be performed this way with the horns arrangements.... Sweet! Sweet Sweet!!!

[@sjazzp]

This song brings me so many memories of my jazz radio show in late 90’s early 2000’s when I played so many tracks from Dave Koz, even though I met him in Chicago in those days. Excellent playing, great band! It’s great to see Cory Wong in there.

[@zacksilva9494]

This an amazing album, reminds me of Brian Culbertson and his band when they’d play their live music videos! Way to go 💯

[@user-lq2cq3mx7d]

Wow,Wonderful !
