Level 42 - Almost There (Estival Jazz, 2nd July 2010)

[@arfandroid6729]

GOOSEBUMPS!!!! GOOSEBUUMPS!!! They rendered this perfectly! I am so glad that Mark and Mike found the PERFECT substitutes for the Gould Brothers! the late Boon would've been so proud! and that young drummer has the skills to match Phil's!!! they must be real fans of Level 42 before they joined, to perform such fantastic musical abilities! they are tight and technically sound...perfect! - from a Fan of Level 42 in their old days.

[@AlfieGoodrich]

Tight. As. F**k. Fan since 1980. They sound as good today as they did then. Wonderful.

[@tacofortgens3471]

Some points even better...

[@tonylittlelegs2110]

Never heard them sound better absolute wow Been following Level 42 since 1981

[@richardlangellotti6208]

I always said Rush was the most technically able band. This track is making me rethink that.

[@DerHerrMitR]

Take into account that Rush had one lineup change during their entire career, whereas Level 42 had 7+. Think again. They really don't compare.

[@commuterbranchline8132]

Mark King and Mike lindup are the core of the original band. Nathan King, Marks brother and the drummer Peter Ray Biggin are playing incredibly tightly. Don’t know the Sax player, but he can wail!

[@ddregs1]

As a huge Rush fan, there is really no way to compare Geddy Lee to Mark King. King is much more technical than Lee, who remains my fav rock bass player. King can play almost every musical genre. Different level

[@richardlangellotti6208]

@@ddregs1 given your KZbin handle, some mention of Andy West is justified.

[@ddregs1]

@@richardlangellotti6208 sure it is. And Dave LaRue is another great addition 👍

[@boomfield]

Great performance! As i'm a Phil Gould Fanboy, i have to admit, dude on drums is goin' nuts...

[@commuterbranchline8132]

Drummer is Peter Ray Biggin. He adds his own distinctive flavour to the mix. I’m liking it more and more.

[@lesliegibson]

Wow still got it chaps👌👌👍❤️ thank you

[@ozzie-sk9dh]

Drummer killin' it

[@ChuckvLewis]

The whole band is Good! Mark King you are a Bass Beast!

[@lupinario]

Stunning performance!!! They deserved a better reaction by the audience

[@kurganseth4799]

Un des très nombreux titres qui sonnent bien mieux en live qu'en studio. Et comme d'habitude une prise de son au top .

[@julianwills9733]

That was fantastic. I first saw level 42 in Edinburgh about 81 Blew my mind . No sax those days though have loved the music beyond

[@hertor8803]

What a band.

[@ginofelicetti1774]

Eccellent use of that bass drum.....well done

[@philboyce1582]

Sensational 👏 shame the audience didn’t realise they were in the presence of the King.

[@eugenioyep]

An audience of catatonic corpses would have been more reactive

[@Jason_Drums_]

Incredible Band 👌 ❤ 🙌

[@steventrueman3493]

Wonderfully done live version 😊

[@Anthony-vm1wb]

Mark giving that bass a great thumb slapping. 😁 Brilliant!

[@theressamurphy2996]

Almost there at lake...pray for pretty weather..... solitude for three days... don't you love Level 42❤️

[@tacofortgens3471]

[@richardclarke376]

This is 30 years into their career!

[@arcobass2]

criminally underrated bass player. keep it up mark!!! wish I was born in the 80s to listen to you from the beginning!

[@simonbarker4017]

[@leonardomoraisdasilva9013]

Muito bommmm !

[@HansKarlsson1971]

Google, define perfection....... answer is Level42........

[@cnvi08]

Only Rush could pull this off..

[@cnvi08]

Who’s playing sax??? Thx!

[@Naltrex]

Sean Freeman

[@johnmcintosh7784]

Not too many shots of the keyboard guy.

[@mirosaly]

What is the name of the guitarist?

[@Kevin-gb8gb]

I think it's Mark's brother, Nathan King. Man, what a talented family.

[@Naltrex]

yep, it's Mark's younger brother, Nathan King

[@graemefarquharson465]

They left out the last verse.

[@SiliconBassist]

I think the video director was allergic to keyboard players lmao

[@louisguerin8513]

Techniquement, c'est irréprochable, mais après c'est une musique sans âme, c'est plat, c'est juste une démonstration de style, mais rien d'autre.

[@evelynforman1030]

I love them ❤️
