Muthspiel & Blade - FRIENDLY TRAVELERS LIVE - End on 4

[@drichardbailey]

Greatest living player in any genre, by a wide margin.

[@Modes9]

Wolfgang is a great player...maybe world-class. I'm sending this baby straight to favorites. Keep 'em coming!

[@CuriousGabe17]

3:17 is not only the wrong footage, the video is flip around. Everything else is perfect... Especially Blade. 100 thumbs up.

[@The4thGuy]

I smile every time I see or hear Brian play.

[@chungiemunchin]

The cat gets so many sounds out of just his snare drum much more the rest of his small but lethal kit. He expresses himself as much as in the way he hits his drums in addition to his obvious technical ability.

[@SkopelosGreece]

What a team! I am smoothly pouring this down from my ears straight through to my stomach, great job

[@MrMedso1]

Breaking the barriers, why not ...it takes two to tango. Great breathtaking!!!! All the best Andy

[@RamonRodriguez-lv3yz]

Brian Blade playing drums : What a beauty to see and hear.

[@daiad]

powerful, delicate, and calculate pair.amazing.....

[@epasurr]

i really think brian blade is the most profound jazz drummer of the last 20 years, i feel like people are gonna be talking about him in 30 or 40 years like they do today about max and philly joe and elvin today

[@lisasloane6945]

Brian Blade.. such sensitivity. Really fucking nice

[@homsjazz9048]

Brin is playing Constantinoples rides! i wonder what type of cons is his ride cymbals. so beautiful..! and his snare tunes so delicious... awesome!

[@spigots8]

I have one now. you are absolutely right in your judgement. thanks

[@Dsullivann]

Nasty duo, these two are killing it

[@ruthieworld]

They will be performing at the Heritage and Jazz Festival this Friday (4/26/13) in New Orleans, LA. on the Gospel Stage from Noon-12:40pm.

Jason Statham is an awesome jazzer!! Way to go transporter!!

[@Bobpopsiculs]

love the little motif at 1:03

[@MADFACTdub]

Realtime vest session ! Needy a jazz core coming !!!!!!!!

[@RobertDeMiedo]

Brian Blade es increíblemente bueno en lo que hace!

[@JordanFowlerjordanpfowler]

Drums for ear drums. So musical.

[@littledrummer16]

Brian blade at 9:00. that fill with the dampened cymbal at the end caught me sooo off guard but was amazing just like this whole video.

[@croustitube]

yes it is !!! i've got the same one.... a beauty

[@ciquel]

great music!!

[@VladimirBarriere]

Pure bliss

[@Bobpopsiculs]

a compositional triumph!

[@pablocastillejos7992]

Brian Blade not play drums... he plays music.

[@Kertranka]

Hi there, I'm a friend of the friendly travelers. We have performed on the same venue, both in the French Quarters (Kaldi's Coffee Shop and at the New Orleans Jazz Festival). I'm trying to contact Floyd or Alfred. Can you help? 🍓

[@pickinstone]

@lthevenard Not at all. Open your ears and stop looking at the video. Trust me, you'll start hearing the bass that Wolfgang is hinting at. Without the extreme low end the musicians are given more breathing room. Granted this doesn't work in all contexts, but here it's absolutely divine. Blade, Blade, Blade. My ear drums are gonna be grooving the night away.

[@tonificador]

you're totally right!

[@wiowio]

凄い格好良い！

[@ekaksana]

6:45 - magic magic magic!

[@saky228]

What is the main ride cymbal? Anyone knows?

[@karimAmalay1]

Ô Brian ❤❤❤❤❤

[@spigots8]

Looks like an Elvin jones Yamaha signature snare ?

[@ConstantXplorer]

Awesome.

[@veloopity]

❤❤❤

[@yarpyarp85]

totally agree. I would say the same for bill stewart.

[@jazzvec]

@Modes9 Maybe? :-) In fact he is one of the top players on the planet right now.

[@ChicagoGent]

Deep.

[@LucasThevenard]

Does anyone else miss the bass? maybe is just cause I`m used to it, but even thought blade has such unlimited creativity I just feel like the drums get lonely and empty without it.

[@ASVBROWN]

for bill stewart? Man if you could say what you dig about Bill Stewart i`d like to hear

[@tfjzz]

@Modes9 why maybe?? :D

[@larenasaddleblanket2937]

Damn

[@GSWCarr]

hmmm.... where to begin. for starters his tastefulness, facility, musicality, expressiveness, creativity, impeccable time... need I go on? dont get me wrong, I prefer Brian's playing, but seems like apples and oranges to me

[@thealphabet79]

proof: the octave pedal is underutilized, still.

[@gcharocks]

What the fuck happened? Why did it cut out at the drum solo?

[@antoniomelillo6274]

good

[@LucasThevenard]

Does anyone else miss the bass? Don't give me wrong, blade and wolfgang are great, but I really need the bass... maybe is just cause I`m used to it, but I just feel like the drums get lonely and empty without it.

[@preciouslouse]

It's fine, I can't enjoy today's pop, rock and metal music as well :)

[@AROBcyprus]

don't get me wrong I'm about to make a self absorbed statement about how I can;t enjoy this music.

[@edwardsmith1905]

No Groove no music
