Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@leosmith9301]

Bob from accounting was able to take an extended lunch break to play the drums with Delvon and Jimmy

[@sarahhayes9850]

😂

[@SCOTT-ki3ve]

"Bob" is crushin it. I still wanna be Jimmy James though

[@MrDrummer2127]

Drummer plays respectfully to the music and most importantly in the pocket.That is a top notch drummer if you ask me. Well Done Sir.

[@mrjohnnydangerously]

Why aren't these guys more famous and popular? Their album Close But No Cigar should be the soundtrack for life.

[@chokedbymerriman]

Audio mix is perfect.

[@doctorpele]

No surprise at all. Kevin Suggs and KEXP always have great sound engineering. I love listening to almost anything KEXP gets their hands on. They invite tons of interesting bands into the studio and do a phenomenal job recording them.

[@toadd]

first time in KEXP huh?

[@Whirlee79]

love how the hi-hats sit in the mix

[@Margarinethebutterlover]

Its hard to imagine a three piece, with no vocals being so compelling. Then you realise where the bassist is hiding. God lord, busy man. Such great sounds/tunes/songwriting/playing. I keep coming back. I hope to see you guys live one day.

[@DefOutOfSize]

Whenever you get a chance go and get them. Two years ago I I've had a unforgettable experience with DLO3 in Prague.

[@Margarinethebutterlover]

@@TheLukeylala I love Kruangbin!!!! They are just awesome. I stumbled across them a few years ago, they are sooooo tight and have such great groove. Their drummer is just amazing. Check these guys out kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJm9qqp_fbuthK8

[@Grenudoloko]

My doctor told me to play this video everytime i feel tired and sick... This groove makes me dance inmediately >>>>>>>

[@lundsweden]

Now thats what I call the GOOD Doctor!

[@TreyVaswal]

McGraw on the drums is a wizard at appearing to be doing almost nothing.

[@ScottWhartonComedian]

So casual in his formal wear

[@poserp]

There are a lot of drummers out there who try to play funk. David McGraw (the drummer) actually does. Most excellent.

[@AnnaHandle]

When the actual gig has just a few views and everyones watching the warm up

[@heeje4843]

i really like the near-bridge-picking attacking-but-short-sustaining retrospectively-mellow-and-vintage guitar sound. brilliant!

[@Paulgarnerband]

Meters-esque

[@arthurbraga815]

okei...

[@sonicseducer69]

It's great except it falls short on one part in the last song. There's like an unintentional pause/break between two chords (consistently in that same part throughout the song, don't know maybe it's the bridge) because there's no sustain. It sounds jarring because it sounds like a beginner picking up a guitar and not being able to sustain notes or they can't play something fluently at first and it's patchy like that. It would be smoother if he adjusted his tone for the same sound and play to create short sustaining notes and longer sustaining notes as needed rather than be stuck with all short sustaining. Or just strum closer to the neck in those parts but that might sound weird with the difference in tone idk

[@AOTSismyhero]

I know you posted this a month ago haha but I think that's just a problem with those old vintage sears guitars. They weren't the best quality to begin with so unless you mod the crap out of it (Doesn't look like he has) You're never going to get that much sustain. You'd have to upgrade the nut and saddles and everything.

[@wallacesanders265]

Hey Mr Cho (or responder JonathanD), do you know what kind of guitar it is? (The red hollow body Jimmy James is playing). Thanks!

[@raindogred]

Delvon is playing funky bass lines with his left hand and foot and countering riffs and lead runs on the right..true independence playing..this is amazing

[@Den419Adel]

Little kid dancing at 1:33. There's hope for the future.

[@henryhill92]

I used to work as an after-school carer for primary school kids. One time I threw on Parliament's Clones of Dr Funkenstein at the playground and all the little kids danced their asses off while the older kids made fun of me for liking old music. Something sad is definitely happening to them in those intervening years...

[@artemii_23]

Dave Elkins i

[@bob1shh]

Probably some of older ones identify such a music with their parents, and that's simply teenage rebellion I guess )

[@HisTrueName]

Yeah, possibly pub skewl

[@vanniancillotti]

@Dave Elkins, I absolutely never comment on KZbin, but I really have to tell you that your comment was, word for word, what I was thinking while watching the video for the first time.

[@alexmickee6799]

Lovin' the Tabasco shirt. And the Booker T vibes. Such a solid performance.

[@MrJoloh]

Alex Mickee they're great but sounds to me much more jtqesque What you think?

[@jellyfishrising]

Booker T? Ummm no.

[@steakmann]

Alex Mickee they got a piece on their lp called little Booker t, shit's fire

[@Spunkyinternall]

Jimmy James 'siren solo' 12:23 on Tacoma Black Party, good stuff!

[@beatboxbandit9842]

the best tiro in a LONG time....the little girl in the pink jacket knows what i am talking about

[@darrenblacketer1578]

I meet mister jimmy James on a accident at a guitar shop in Seattle called the emerald guitar it was amazing I was blown away plus he played his guitar once for my daughter Bella for her birthday every since then I so admire him as a person and a guitar legend because he is

[@daniel7379]

THAT SOLO. OH MY GOD. TEETH. POLICE SIREN SOUNDS. ......

[@WalyB01]

That the black party joke...

[@NinjaSushi2]

12:48

[@NInjaTunazier]

Speechless. For a jazz fanatic like me, who rarely likes to go listen to a jazz, funk or soul music live when there is a guitar on the line-up, this guy changed my whole view on life and jazz and guitars. That guitarist. Oh my. I got chills during that solo. And now I'm sweating...

[@TopExtremeGames]

When Jimmy James picks up the Strat you know shit gonna get real

[@larsloschwitz9448]

That's the perfect music to relax to, in the evening. Just found them today while I was on youtube-safari. I really like, how their tarantino-esque appearance matches their musical performance. Those three are real soul brothers...

[@garywilliams9678]

Well done KEXP. Not sure who did your production but the video and audio are top notch. Well done.

[@micharquette9321]

Yet to see a bad one from them Gary.

[@ScottWhartonComedian]

Kevin Suggs audio engineer 👌

[@chrissansum]

Thought I would just have a quick listen before bed as it is a work day tomorrow and it is gone midnight... But... no chance of a ‘quick listen’ when it is this funky - it would be a crime to stop this in the middle... gonna be a late night...

[@JamoonXerxesSauber]

No such thing as an early night with groovy music like this. It's infectious. Same with Marcus King

[@Iwasthewalrus]

God DAMN this great music makes me forget all the crazy shit going on in the world today.

[@brunomaia5373]

OMG, 3 years ago... kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[@balance_one]

The Funk is strong with these men. May the Funk be with you all. Live long and Funk forever.

[@taurushamilton2739]

Benjamin Norton and may the Funk be with you !

[@abiros7465]

That dudes got more groove in his feet than most bass players

[@Bessmaster2000]

That guitarist is Jimmy James. He used to play with Grace Love. He brings that funky bluesness.

[@venividivini]

[@mr.smileytm]

Used to? He still plays in the True Loves and Grace Love is in that band.

[@brownkemosabe]

Zack Schaefer Grace no longer plays with the true loves. They function separately now. Jimmy leads them.

[@robbygaume600]

Nice to see parents teaching their children what music is.

[@organfreak]

Even tho I've heard it about 96 times, that organ bass line for 'Tacoma Black Party' is just riDICulous!!! I mean it in a good way.

[@mpsr87]

Thank you youtube recommendations!!!

[@jakereder7508]

probably one of the best things to happen to music in a while. this just enriched my entire life.

[@ccromdome]

The Fantastic Jimmy Smith is smiling listening to you guys!

[@daemonscriptoris6668]

Some of these takes are actually superior to the album versions. That goes for the shorter video (entitled "Warm up ..."), too. Really great stuff!

[@Wanderlinse]

David McGraw: awesome drummer

[@aalm7966]

Finally somebody says the guy's name. Thank you for that info

[@Wanderlinse]

@@aalm7966 Haha :-) Brlliant drummer, isn't he?

[@TheMAGIC1414]

Chacho chacho, qué bueno. Cheers from Canary Islands

[@williedeuel]

Great, timeless music right here. A little Booker T., a little Meters, a whole lot of soul, and three amazingly talented musicians. I didn't make it all the way through Concussion without having to look you guys up and become a fan.

[@williedeuel]

I dig the Silvertone guitar. The Hammond organ is a given in a trio like this, but the Silvertone... damn!

[@michalkiegiel1210]

No fuss. No mess. Just straight up funky when let out the gate from start to finish.

[@DiseasedMrT]

The groove is so damn deep I can't climb out... Amazing performance, and a brilliant recording 👌

[@FoundryStreetJason]

Amazing Trio! All tremendous musicians. I love how Organ player is rocking the bass on the left hand as well as the rest of the other stuff he is doing with his feet and right hand. So cool!! I'm glad I found you guys on KZbin.

[@johndeal1624]

Agreed but I believe the real low-end bass is coming from the bass foot pedals. In any event great stuff!

[@vilmos_csehi]

Who the fk has a non existent taste to dislike this masterpiece???

[@cajamison1]

My God, Delvon is playing the bass with his feet while playing melody with his fingers. Amazing musicianship. Pure genius.

[@mikewedgwood697]

My new favorite guitarist

[@patrickgijselhart2446]

The girl in the pink jacket bewind the window! Thats the next generation who pics up the music!! The band is just awesome! Thats what its all about! Green jacket older man freaks out on its past!!

[@KevinMichaelCallihan]

This gentleman on the HB3 has a great way about his stage presence and such a brilliant form of technique on his chosen instrument. I have been listening about each and every day to one of the sessions. KEXP is excellent in what I have recently become acquainted with. Thank you, both, the trio and KEXP together with a great audience.
