George Whitty is one of the best musicians I have ever heard in my life... since many years ago I have the fortune to know about his talent and I just have to say he is from another world!!! Virtuous execution and creativity!! SUPERB ARTIST!!

[@wirewalker3854]

George's solo here is off the chain!💥 Beautiful trio!❤

[@waterlec8718]

Dare I say...Right ⬆️☝🏽up there with Oscar Peterson 🎹🎹🎹

[@brandonfiore8982]

I wish I never heard this, so I could hear it again.

[@Ravivharshanee]

Astonishing musicianship by all three. Whitty is masterful on keys, Brechtlein is all ears and excitement, and Fierabracci is a groovathon bad ass.

[@davidhiltonmusic]

You know what I really like about Ric's playing, is you can sing everything he plays. Amazing player. Damn, that's some good shit.

[@deetgeluid]

Oh yeah! Tom Brechtlein, the most underrated drummer ever.

[@NOTLIM214]

That's for sure...His version is better than Dave Weckl and that's saying alot....

[@jazzsnare]

I think Tom ought to upload far more videos of his incredible playing. He is, as deet said, indeed "the most underrated drummer ever." Let's here more of him!

[@markdavid3076]

So is Ric on bass. Excellent bass player.

[@claudemakelele2856]

The pianist is a monster..killing me

[@MultiProductor]

Ric Fierabracci and Friends...is amazing...!!! i love this song..!! awesomeeeeeeeeeeee

[@fekalier]

Very musical drumming, always with perfect time and great groove. Thank´s Tom, such a inspiration.

[@bendex88]

And it's nice that the bass and keyboards can go direct so there's no need for baffles..The better to see each other ...

[@yvesgerard1308]

Thank you Mister Whitty ... what a pleasure to have these musicians ! A famous trio i think !

[@rmoraespinto]

PS: Rick Fierabracci is one of the best bass players around. I started to hear some Patitucci and Will Lee lines here and there... but he stands firm on his own.

[@udlman]

I had the pleasure of meeting Ric Fierabracci last year. Not only is he a fantastic musician but he's generous in spirit. encouraging and humble. Those things don't often go together. If you get a chance to see him then go! You won't be disappointed.

[@Deluca-Piano]

George Witty's hands are amazing to watch, he moves without missing a beat. Those 16th note lines are insane!

[@kevinchouinard4932]

No matter how many times I hear this. Just. WOW!

[@MrFg1980]

Holy SHIT !!! Incredible. Yeah Tom !

[@MrYann33]

Great trio..Fantastic drummer as always. Such finesse and fluidity. The double kick end lick at 6:42 is amazing (as well as all the others).. Great music

[@berkeleybernie]

I'm not a jazz player or enthusiast. But watched the whole thing. These guys are masters of time. And that is killer tone on the drum kit.

[@hugosepulveda8932]

Phenomenal musicin keyboardist!

[@RokasJackunas]

First thought was: "Dirty loops 20 years later..." Great job!

[@LACAJON1]

Tom, George and Ric congrats that is just music at its best. I liked it

Ric. You are my favourite bass player I think!

[@69433]

[@69433]

@@holygeneration7 Hi, Kim. to answer your question from my observation He's been off the scene for maybe 15 years but he's played with the Brecker Brother's back in the late 80's going into the 90's the Brecker Brothers was thee only group I've Seen George perform with I'm quite shure he's played with countless other professional names in thee industry as well The Brecker Brothers just stick out to me because that was the group i first saw George perform With...

[@krisdofernates]

fantastic jam......everyone is killing it....and...Classic Fierabracci......taste.....tone....and chops.....

[@shagyaride]

Masterpiece of a MASTER TRIO ! Absolutelly one of my favorite tracks since years. Avesome fusion sound! I have to listen and see them frequently.

[@MoxieCom]

Monsters they are... everyone of them! And an excellent recording... thanks for posting!

[@alisaiterkan]

I had not seen Tom Brechtlein in years! In fact I last remember him from Chick Corea's instructional videos. Matched grip looks good but he did rock the traditional grip back in the day :) Most importantly, his solo was very fresh, so glad to see see him at the top of his game.

[@dougrmoe]

Epic all the way around ! does the keyboardist have 2 brains ? Unreal

[@basspluto]

Absolutely brilliant . great musicians. Love the bass player!

[@MoxieCom]

That was/is amazing! Great playing all around, and Tom Brechtlein sounding particularly relaxed and flowing. ;)

[@darranschnepf8076]

Absolute wizard on the kit,freaking phenomenal 💯

[@kokouts1]

[@manoreys693]

The silence at the end of this masterpiece was epic 😎

[@brantanable]

@r0kas dirty loops can only 'dream' of getting to this level.

[@oldludwig]

Absolute knock out. First rate playing from these three professionals. Thanks for the upload! Firmly in my favoutites...

[@formattester6]

[@deetgeluid]

Aaah, there's still music being made. Awesome!

[@walfod]

[@playinhard]

Damn, George! This slays me every time I revisit it! Epic playing! :)

[@JuergenJoherl]

[@MrDaveaccord]

Great trio here.

[@pedroleal7118]

Excellent!

[@adgo22]

Totally badass..!! Great tune, great playing, great sound..! Love how Ric "channels" Anthony Jackson @3:24 for a killer B string passage, and what a solo,,super musical...Tom, so tasty @6:05 and what was THAT @ 6:43 !! George..well what can one say..able to blow on the level of a Brecker, Stern and the like yet sound like himself..awesome..

[@rhythmfield]

that is some BAD ASS stuff, every aspect of it is fantastic--groove, feel, creativity, sounds, veal compote, rockfish sushi!!

[@petluv214]

Oh my goodness absolutely awesome music. Thank you for sharing it.

[@jiabee]

A very very fresh, clear music! New sound.

[@DcGroove]

[@hudrac_yador]

This sounds downright amazing.

[@rmoraespinto]

Thanks, George. I enjoied the version with Dave Weckl, but this sounded better. Great team playing!

[@j.p.lindsay6768]

Most EXCELLENT, dudes!! :)

[@kermoon1]

absolutely cool.

[@anthrolinguistica]

Excelente. Ich liebe diese Musik

[@barakfares]

Great, specially the free chord progression choice is fabulous...

[@Diakonov29]

Georges switching of keyboards while soloing. The brainpower that would take. Damn

[@rickyforbes8064]

Great technique. Tom Brechtlein is also guesting with the 25th Street Band. Jazzira - 25th Street Band

[@UnitedEffect]

Recording "live" in the studio... you just can't beat it imho. The groove, communication, dynamics etc. just can't be done the same with layer upon layer...

[@teocratachilensis5776]

Wow amazing snare groove

[@joserodriguez-ll8ky]

these guys are awesome!

[@fusionhar]

Beautiful

[@ramziboukamel8227]

[@thaiscesar9]

[@bastronaut]

OMG: Who is the Noob/Moron who Dislikes (1) this......? Can't believe that one doesn't recognize the "intelligence" and "high-end skills" of these fine musicians..... This is G R E A T. Love this. xXx

[@fredbass77]

[@GoranVujic]

I love it!:)

[@CRITOBIASAS]

grandi tutti davvero ric f. il tuo timbro e sempre fantastico VOTO 10+

[@310Prophet]

Sounds great fellas !!! #A1

[@-gbogbo-]

1:16 this synth sound reminds me of Tom Scott's Lyricon (e.g. in the Tony Williams album called "The Joy of Flying"). AND THIS IS GREAT.

[@rui4659]

freakin' good!

[@nancycristinacortes]

Que genial es esto!!!!!!

[@chrisparker8773]

Tom you're killin"!!!!

[@jonp4846]

I discovered George from the Brecker Brothers. There's a video out there I can't recall, but he just absolutely kills it during his solo!

[@robram2025]

+Jonp It's the Brecker Brothers live from Barcelona and it's here in full on KZbin. Mike Stern, Dennis Chambers and Jame Genus in what I think may be the most amazing live fusion band ever. Mike Sterns solo in Spherical is the best I've seen him play. Not to mention the mother f'n Brecker Brothers!

[@jonp4846]

robram818 That would be it. Thanks!

[@gberter3406]

above and below ..

[@ibanezprs3403]

whoaa .. this is sick ..

[@thebreathalyzer]

So cooking!!!!

[@Didumdidaj]

Brechlin is playing with more loose stick grip, he also use more rims and head together in same stroke i think it gives a more open sound. Weckls weakest point is he sometimes plays it to perfect and stays in his perfect zone :-) But nice to hear two top drummers in the same number with different sound and playstyle.

[@richardperez6208]

Yah, man!

[@dexdrum]

Awesome! Tom killed double bass on 6:43

[@jbcarbou]

Sweet!
