[@vancebacri5894]

Rip to him. I like how you honor him.

[@djcoolcliff]

@@vancebacri5894Thanks Vance!!!!

[@GNARGNARHEAD]

I learnt something from him today, from his performance of Hang Up Your Hang ups in '76.. 🙂

[@djcoolcliff]

@@GNARGNARHEAD Awesome!!!! Yeah influenced a lot of people and still does from the grave!!!! Thanks!!!!!

[@VIRGONOMICS]

Oh man - he’s my favorite . He was always moving to the beat - one could cut the sound and tell what’s up by just watching him . His inspiration to other guitarist is incalculable. God Bless .

[@renatopires723]

N´DUGU WAS A GENIUS ! HE´S GOT THE BEAT !!

[@mrbertiep1]

This rhythm section is LOCKED AND LOADED. The groove never waivers.

[@markfridvalszki]

100000% KILLER!!!!

[@bravacanay6428]

everybody is the rhythm section

[@wolfgangfricke8555]

yes, merciless :))

[@sommelierramon]

best , no doubt.

[@ifgwelf]

Good lord that bass is crunchy sounding. Nice

[@lorenzrosenthal119]

that is one of the nicest bass sounds and playing I've ever heard!

[@ErikBruchez]

@@lorenzrosenthal119 Of course, it's Darryl "The Much" Jones. Great sound.

[@vitorcabralsoueu]

Wah-Wah Watson is incredible!!!!!!

[@PatrickManzecchi]

We love Herbie. But this one is amazing, truly mind blowing. What a fantastic band on fire!

[@eddiewilliams8673]

Herbie Hancock: Genius. And that hairline is still magnificently stable after all these years filling the earth with music! Splendid!

[@PeterMosley]

Peace and love my friend Ndugu Chancle. RIP

[@mattgraffagna1737]

Wah wah's "in the groove" head nods and neck jerks to get that extra sharpness out of each strum..

[@sebastianweitemeier3600]

this is called perfection.....

[@aristatibb7]

Great to see the Late and Great Ndugu Chancler on Drums. Great HD video.

[@frankspikes4867]

It's a beautiful thing.

[@pretorious700]

Wah Wah Watson is also deceased now.

[@FredGeurtsen]

Wah Wah forever...a sound created which last forever and ever

[@henryclemons-bv9us]

no doubt

[@lessismore4470]

the rhythm section, oh my God...

[@dejantoroman6472]

I m listening over and over again,fucking great.

[@aaronsims8283]

This is funky as HELL

[@juliuslambert9226]

An incredible chemistry between these musicians, a groove that never lets up, and rising emotions that take me by the throat. And besides, they have fun! Absolutely fantastic!

[@bustabass9025]

Didn't know Rolling Stones bass dude used to groove with Herbie. Just goes to show you how universal the expressions of music, particularly the low-end, can be irrespective of genres. Roll on Brother Daryl...roll on!👑🎸🎵

[@robertklouse3868]

if it sounds good to you IS all that matters! its ear candy.Personally,I love jazz fusion

[@Monkeygroover]

He played and recorded with Miles Davis and John Scofield too, and Sting!

[@rodrickdubose659]

Whats the low end?

[@sparkymcplumpthepolydactyl2079]

Rodrick Dubose ‘the bass’ is considered the ‘low end’

[@ianbuxton8332]

@@robertklouse3868 Me too!!

[@tripletalentab1266]

One of the best concerts i ever saw and one of the tightest rhythm sections ever!!! Cretative, innovative and breath taking!

[@differentgroove1]

Oh yessssss !!!! Mr. Hancock and the Headhunters on ultra point hands down !!!!

[@DAVYMAC]

Great stuff! Bill Evans (The Alternative Man) on sax. Good lineup all the way around!

[@guyharrison4644]

Ndugu....tastleful drummer....nice....Great band.

Music this good is the reason I get out of bed and keep going...

[@blackie8083]

The drummer, funky as hell!

[@Funky_Cat]

Bill Evans masterclass

[@fibboobbif]

And Bill Evans... a living legend.

[@GulfCoastConnection]

You funky, Herbie.

[@henryclemons-bv9us]

[@MaliVinnyB]

RIP NDUGU!!

[@LOFTmusicChannel]

You can enjoy his concerts playing the drums with Herbie Hancock (goo.gl/AFa1rA) or with Carlos Santana (goo.gl/38jhpV) :)

[@buddabirne4661]

How I Love this vertically mounted Ride cymbal ! Ndugu, one of my all time favorites !!

[@rustygriswold5819]

Thank you so much for sharing this video!

We are glad you like it! :)

MASTERS

[@mikebestvidever6607]

Holy smoking amaze balls ... the rhythm section is off the muthlovin' charts!!! Insane bass. Telepathic drumming. Herbie could've sat this one out. Incredible!

[@dagostinoification]

Mino Cinelu ! I LOVE !

[@hydraevents7338]

I saw him many years ago, with Weather Report

[@standarddisclaimer]

Beauty! Each of these guys is in great form here - the planets were aligned.

[@JazzDig]

there is a spiritual groove movement at about 4:00 and right at 9:23 you can feel it all around you

[@wolfgangfricke8555]

yeees, lifting you up and up...

[@pretorious700]

Ndugu baby!

[@wolfgangfricke8555]

he and daryl, what a tension! woah! a blast!

[@DeepCrossing1]

Wild performance. I love at the end there how the band are just so focused on keeping that groove, but Herbie in his solo keeps throwing rhythmic bombs and trying to steer them in another direction. Creates an amazing slow burning tension, finally release when Herbie joins in with the groove at the end.

[@ianbuxton8332]

What FANTASTICALLY gorgeous, TIGHT arrangement. HERBIE'S not only on form -- OK, when ISN'T he? -- but his solo accompaniment with Cunelu is indescribably OUT OF THIS WORLD.

[@pbea2410]

I have no words !

[@mrbertiep1]

Bill Evans sounds great on soprano.

[@mweavertube]

That pocket is so fu==ing deep, what a band.

[@3t-sm954]

Absolutely Genius

[@tapetrader2590]

Superb performance

[@vitaliydavidov6196]

Одна из моих любимейших вещей. Раньше слушал только студийную запись. В 70-х годах самое начало было использовано в Ереванской музыкальной телепрограмме с названием " 22-30"

[@ericbush6124]

Relentless

[@DavidHarris-yz2nh]

The Headhunters are undoubtedly one of the grooviest bands ever but this must be one of their most inspired moments. Fabulous!

[@renatopires723]

HE WAS AN UNBEATABLE BLASTING BEAST OF THE BEAT ! NO ONE WAS BETTER ; I BET HE WAS THE BEST !!

[@paxwallacejazz]

Check out Spider VSOP for the legendary Paul Jackson Bass funk just for some perspective.

[@yamomanemjazz]

Darryl jones is cool to people when he dont have to be. I appreciated that about him. Sweet guy.

[@dejanhasecic9124]

Oh yeah! Ecstatic! Very inSpidered!

[@philippediot88]

Amazing live ! Line up AWESOME ! ❤

[@A.ChristopherJohnson]

Pure Flavor !!

[@cardakeys]

Groove so deep that keyboard bout to fall down...

[@alexbrewer5799]

Wow. All that & PERCUSSION too !!!

[@BarbeRace]

From 3:36 to 6:51 the groove synergie is too good, and Bill Evans solo so cool...

[@ericbush6124]

Bill went mid evil

[@jojannekevandijken7730]

Fantastic!!

[@ezequieldethier5626]

Gracias por volver a subirlo.terribles músicos .la época dorada del jazz. Fusión

God bless Leon “Ndugu” Chanceler who was driven to the limits by George Duke and Herbie. Rip

2:56 Mr. Wah Wah Watson

[@samuelalridge3718]

Grove On🎷🎸🎺🎹🎵🎼💯

[@FBASoul]

Ndugu played the classic drumbeat on 'Billie Jean' R.I.P.

[@verajerebcoria894]

MIN 13:55 QUE VIRTUOSISMO!!!!!!!!!!

[@ianbuxton8332]

Fantastically exciting track; UNBELIEVABLY imbecilic cameraworj. One could almost come to believe that Herbie himself simply WASN'T THERE that evening!

[@sjflores007]

COOL! I hear a lot of Miles Davis in his electric period in this music, which is not surprising since Herbie played with him.

[@answersquestioned]

Steven Flores Darryl Jones and Bill Evans played also with Miles

[@ulyssesgrantgarnerjr6395]

Essentially, the entire band is composed of Former Miles’ Bandmates!

[@RC_Cola2020]

16:00 Herbie with the General Midi tones 😂

[@SantAgusti16]

Great concert but the video producer and the cameramen don't seem to be listening, or they have no idea what's going on. Herbie is soloing and they show everyone else. What a shame!

[@fairoaksguy7040]

The main main man is Herbie and they focus on others what's up.

[@SantAgusti16]

The producer and the cameramen have no idea what's going on. They are not listening to who's playing.

[@ianbuxton8332]

@@SantAgusti16 Yeah I found that BLOODY ANNOYING as well. All the more so because Herbie's in classic GENIUS mode on this track: VERY arachnoid. INTENSELY, THRILLINGLY creepy steel drum simulation!

[@achenarmyst2156]

Second part is Swamp Rat as far as I recollect 🤔

[@couches11]

Some say the saxophone player is still asking the sound guy for himself up in the monitor to this day

[@MrBungle48]

Estos no son los headhunters!!!! donde esta Bennie Maupin, Mike Clark, Bill Summers y Paul Jackson????

[@sebastianweitemeier3600]

The geatest pianist alive

[@ianbuxton8332]

Certainly the most EXCITING pianist, for my money, and surely that's what it's all about, in modern jazz. McCoy Tuner also, albeit stylistically speaking TOTALLY different!

[@ianbuxton8332]

Should have read McCoy TYNER, of course!! 😄

[@ueoai1126]

ワー・ワー・ワトソン以外は全員マイルスつながりだね。いやあ、もっと聴きたいなあ。

[@HerpinThaDerp]

imagine going to math class and getting this

[@ericdahm]

Pirate shirt sax fashion AND the Cosby sweater distracted me - otherwise rad to the max!

[@grasshopperfiddler]

I guess Bill evans wanted to be a Headhunter so bad he gave up the ivories for some golden keys

[@williamfeuer]

Nothing against Evans, but where's Benny Maupin?

[@achenarmyst2156]

Bill is untouchable.

[@mateostenberg]

20:55 BATMAN!

Why this line up? Where was Paul Jackson? Bennie Maupin? James Levi? At least they had wah wah watson

29:18 : Mino Cilenu doesn't want to take a chorus :')

[@Trk-El-Son]

Quite hard to look past that horrendous DX7 “rhodes” sound. Thank god it was passing phase. But yeah, I also sold my Rhodes back then and went all DX7 (+TX7 x2).🤷🏼‍♂️😄

[@ethanmckinney1473]

Wrong Bill Evans
