Snarky Puppy - What About Me? (Alternate Take) [We Like It Here (Remixed + Remastered + Reimagined)]

[@olafschoonebeek4049]

Shaun's magic noodles at 1:17 and Michael's response. Gold ❤

[@Toppu]

the first version is so ingrained in my brain that this one just feels weird lol

[@JS-hu7pv]

I’ll agree but this alternative take is still flippin’ awesome.

[@GuyWhoLikesTheSnarkies1435]

It's sort of dragging, but this sounds like it was trying to emulate the early live version where the drum was played by Mr. Sput himself with that funky feel. I'd say it's the overstated mix that gives the difference, not for everyone imho.

[@TomasiAkimeta]

Rest In Peace to my (musical) brother, and yours, Shaun Martin

[@patrickfitzgerald2861]

Oh man . . . I heard he was ill, but this is the first time hearing of his passing . . . very sad indeed. 😥

[@brandenburg05]

That was the saddest day I've known for a long time!

[@JS-hu7pv]

Snarky Puppy is one of the only groups I’d travel internationally to see/listen to live. We Like it Here got me into them years ago, in large part due to Larnell’s drumming on What About Me?

[@Ana_crusis]

Do they bring out albums? I know almost nothing about them. I was just reading the Wikipedia on them. I love the music can you buy it somewhere?

[@lsh3rd]

I have my tickets for January along with international flight!

[@JS-hu7pv]

@@Ana_crusis - yes. Download, streaming and vinyl (maybe CD?). Interestingly, I don’t find their vinyl recordings to sound as good as the digitial offerings, likely due to the pressing process.

[@Ana_crusis]

@JS-hu7pv I'd prefer CDs I'm not one of these people who thinks a vinyl is better quality

[@jeroenwarner4834]

I went to AFAS,Amsterdam with friends sometime ago. Excellence show.

[@jacobryanjosephmorrison]

I love how many different fills and improvisations made it into this version

[@gabriellacerdapatricio7992]

6:16 We're gonna miss this reactions

[@FVD]

Damn straight! :(

[@JS-hu7pv]

Yep - holy “holy crap this is cool”looks and smiles from Shaun were priceless.

[@markmark9639]

@@JS-hu7pv nothing compared to his bearhug my friend, nothing! he loved the world and was not shy, i have a picture on my phone that i cherish because he shared his humanity during the end of the pandemic with me in his grip like i was his little brother. i am forever humbled by that action.

[@mikedunn2793]

6:09 the syncopation had me jumping ugh Larnell is the GOAT

[@Malletdude31]

The lady in the background going crazy during Larnell's solo is all of us haha

[@gabriellacerdapatricio7992]

The first Snarky song that I heard, 10 years ago, as a KZbin recomendation. Still love this tune!

[@TomGrosset]

Larnell still ruling as usual.

[@azjohn520]

God, I love this album. Every take. Every performance. Period.

[@amiarafe]

wow wow wow wow goddamnit what a cool take and hearing a diff bob solo is amazing

[@amiarafe]

the entire alternate take is amazing, i think i've only seen larnell's alternative solo take before this

[@dannnmerkle7930]

This is the first song I heard from you guys... That led to me seeing you guys 3 times live and hopefully counting. Very cool hearing this other take.

[@manders76]

I appreciate Nate's reaction at 5:45--I always want to see the guys in the same instrument family appreciating what a soloist is doing. (I've always wanted a view of what Bill and Justin were doing during that epic Cory Henry solo on Lingus.)

[@rrrfrdd4497]

Larnell just goes completely insane on this one. What a freaking legend.

[@bksl09]

that guitar solo thooooooo

[@guyelmouchnino6531]

With a octavox pedal

[@DanielBeowulf]

so fucking awesome! bob lanzetti is god

[@markmark9639]

i have a whole new appreciation for Bob Lanzetti on guitar and Larnell on drums now and miss Shaun "Bearhug" Martin even more.

[@Kolhevel]

Wonderful new version, I loved it, it sounds more organic and natural.

[@eastendthug]

Great seeing the original line up from 10 years ago back again.

[@ShannonTrottman]

So good to hear an alternate take. Loved the journey it took in the second half. Fire!

[@CaleAnderson]

It’s so good, so many years later, hearing the alternative takes! It’s so fun guys. Thank you 🥹

[@FAMUCHOLLY]

Regardless of the take, Larnell is a BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@SeanFenlon]

Uploading new KZbin videos with a delighted Shaun Martin is uplifting 😎👍

[@BillKinnon]

I feel privileged to live in the same city as Larnell. Love this version. (And can't believe Shaun is gone.)

[@allanximusic]

Wow is very amazing

[@MFitz12]

As fun and fascinating as this is, the right mix made it on the record.

[@nathant9108]

Feeling on the new mix?

[@MFitz12]

@@nathant9108 - Some bits I like, some bits I don't. The one that made the record is a better performance and a better mix _for the record_

[@BenJuan26]

Such a cool take, especially with the mixing. We Like It Here is mixed very evenly for the most part, and this one stands out by boosting a lot of phrases that would otherwise be lost in the mix.

[@leszeknowak9434]

I guess this is one of my all time favourite compositions. And you guys upload different versions of that masterpiece. I literally cry right now. Thank you ❤

[@4stringJustin]

It's honestly so wild how DIFFERENT this feels than the version you guys chose, the guitar solo feels like its from a different planet. Really gives testament to your guys choices on the versions you go with!

[@reganschultz3971]

Ahhh there's Michael! So fun, so playful - this mix is gold for those licks! and Larnell - nothing left to say - precision, timing, that splash tho! Perfection!

[@stevieearp]

10/10 people have fingers tapping the bass line while that drum solo is ripping through your ears. 👌👌

[@krachbumbang]

Never disappointing!

[@joshjones9749]

This laid back pace almost makes the song sound like a different genre from the original.

[@fedelynchmusica2943]

nahhhhhhhh que solo mas insano!!!!! que crack que eres bob lanzetti! mi trabajo de grado será sobre este tema!! mera inspiracion!!!

[@jj5jj5]

Larnell is like “I’ll slay on as many takes as you like”

[@BillyMcBride]

I want to come to New York! I would love to hear and even play with you all! The music sounds so good!

[@felipejara8891]

Rest in peace Shaun, I´ll forever miss him

[@seraphic1000]

Just arrived...🕺

[@eliziusraz4823]

The new mix is definitively more modern, but it feels more like a studio recording and not like. I like the older one more, of course the music is better. But I have to aprecciate that this one is fire too🔥

[@olivierhallard3379]

We never get tired of it

[@handaloo]

Amazing alternate take as always. Loving getting to go over a new fresh version on We like it here! ❤🎉❤

[@johnduxiehughes]

This just demonstrates how much they improvise. It’s absolutely astonishing to have so many gifted people in one band. I wonder did the audience for those sessions realise what they were in for.

[@markmark9639]

you are absolutely right, i sat in on a session of Empire Central and was blown away by "RL's" and i can be seen wearing a white ballcap in that nights version of "Mean Green". also saw "Take It" featuring Bernard Wrights keys solo that (also included 3 different drum solos) oh my gawd that had the guitarists bouncing and garnered a standing ovation. yeah, i know how these people felt afterwards.

[@karadan100]

When you master your instrument and play with other people who have mastered theirs, anything is possible.

[@cristinawoodson5089]

My favorite version!!! Larnell!!

[@stevenpam]

This was such an amazing session and lineup

[@ricardolizano8851]

I have "remixed" feelings about this (Still love it)

[@DanieleQuattrocchi]

Fantastica guys , grande suono e soli di chitarra e drums. Quasi supera la prima versione.

[@katiabarcenas8002]

¡¡¡ Magistrales!!!❤❤❤

[@JulianHartwellMusic]

This version definitely has extra snark 😆

[@ThilinaBlyz]

dope!!!

Went straight to alternative drum solo then enjoyed the rest.

Wow! 🤩

[@jaredbergeron515]

They are recording a new album with Metropole Orkest in January!

[@joaocavalcante613]

Yeaaaaah

[@teddykgb9971]

The original version is faster just by a few beats per second, but makes all the difference

[@wileamyp]

Yeah, I actually double-checked my KZbin settings that it's playing at normal speed because something felt off. Glad I'm not the only one who noticed

[@lsh3rd]

Big mistake on my part: putting this on during work. Now work stops. Then someone dared to interrupt me. Then to replay while work again stops.

[@charlesjackson4003]

DANG.

[@jeremyankamah4737]

I really really really want to hear all the alternate takes

[@johnstamos4325]

We NEED more alternate takes from WE LIKE IT HERE. Like if you agree!

[@jacobryanjosephmorrison]

Yo Bob was working that octaver?

[@KiddiAgnars]

great to see new versions , but I. liked the miix better on the original release

[@ZippyLeroux]

Impressive sustain on that yellow toothed old Fender 😬

[@carlosmendoza2352]

The new mix is amazing ❤ my favorite snarky song!

[@StompL7]

rip shaun

[@FunkCitynet]

Bob's guitar solo is stanky!

[@kachang7865]

definetly a tad slower than the released version, but still with that fire and energy, and that 2nd half is sick

[@DPMU14]

shaun..

[@nicnacks_7]

were so back

[@torontorox]

✌🏾🧡

[@FVD]

Any chance of a new Bluray of the previous DVD by chance? I'd love an Atmos mix rather than streaming... I'd assume once all the Alternate videos have been released, I'll keep my fingers crossed. Pity Empire Central was only a Region A disc. Might have to get my Bluray Player converted, methinks...

I'm mad they did use that floor cam on the drums more often in the final recordings.

When was this recorded?

[@hutottasibaken8342]

[@Gouch12345]

Reminds me of Gladiator 2.

[@luxlucetq]

I refuse to give in to the propaganda that Larnell is real.

[@andrewxu3602]

I miss the original color grading 😥

[@David-iv6je]

Several miscues but it's also looser/freer in a bunch of places. But the guitar solo takes to long to get into it, with octaver no less. More a rehearsal.

[@johnmerkel2091]

And these mofos got more in the tank? Guitar solo and drums.

[@manu__alva]

[@georgiethedrummer]

First is better

[@EmilSaks]

Hehe, he played the best and the worst guitar solo in two takes. 😂

[@Toppu]

the first version solo is an absolute fire and even that one note he messed up there just fits perfectly lol

[@EmilSaks]

@@Toppu well, we don't know which one was the first, but the "official" version is absolutely one of the best solos ever played.

@@EmilSaks yeah, I was referring to the "official" version
