[@thomasreuter1968]

Frank really goes beast mode here! What a solo with lots of feel and nice phrasing! Immer wieder genial!

[@WDRBIGBAND]

Ja, Frank spielt fantastisch.

[@rembeadgc]

Maceo turned this out! He really brought the spirit of Ray Charles to this performance. The WDR big band is great as always!

[@WDRBIGBAND]

Thank you!

[@ericchiya2385]

I love this is music,Maceo Parker is a great entertainer WDR big band I salute you ❤

[@WDRBIGBAND]

Thank you very much for your kind words!

[@Vierotchka]

Thank you WDR for keeping the Big Band tradition alive. So many good big bands have folded because it is so expensive to pay salaries to large numbers of musicians.

[@achimschmidt5888]

Wow I loved Maceo but I didn't really know what a great musician he is. One of the finest sax players this planet has.

[@cessaly100]

Maceo is da BOMB 💣 DUDE!! You’d hear James Brown calling him out all the time!!!

[@WDRBIGBAND]

That is true!!! It was a great collab!

The magic of a big band! Wonderful

I'm finally leaving a comment. Man, I love this band for so many reasons. Energy. And the way you play in the Basie, laid-back style is amazing. Power. Listening through this for probably the 20th time now.

[@WDRBIGBAND]

Hi Tye! So keep watching us, would be great...

Another in a long line of amazing performances from WDR. It does not matter who plays with them Maceo, Kurt Elling, Dave Liebman. Always excellent!

[@WDRBIGBAND]

Thank you, Clay!

[@billfisher3266]

I like that they feature the different musicians.

[@fivecoulters]

I was today years old when I learned that Maceo Parker also plays the piano. Awesome!

[@BrucknerMotet]

TYL (today you learned) that you were TYO (today years old) when you learned Maceo can TTK (tickle the keys). Ok, TEA! (that's enough acronyms!)

[@disculpateurdifferentiel4416]

My very first 33rpm as I was child was Ray Charles and the Realets...It opened my mind for this great music. I discovered Maceo Parker at least 20 years ago and today the fabulous WDR. Jazz is still the most beautiful music.

[@WDRBIGBAND]

Hi Disculpateur! Thank you for your warm words!

Thank you, unfortunately there are no tour plans for abroad at the moment!😞

[@bobsteiner9209]

Sorry, the market for authentic jazz is not what it once was in the U.S.A. And just consider the travel expense. Thanks, Europe, for keeping jazz alive! Loved the organ solos, by the way. Congratulations to Maceo and everybody involved, including the audience!

[@jbhorton168]

Outstounding!!!!

I'm a huge Ray Charles fan and Maceo does a fantastic job of performing his music but with his own flare.

nice stuff

[@jillhbaudhaan]

Is this Maceo won't blow from the James Brown song? Doing it to Death.

[@normalizedaudio2481]

People change the acoustics of the room. Sounds a little too dry and sort of monophonic. (I didn't check) Pretty good recording though.

[@BrunoNeureiter]

It sounds crystal and clear. The room wouldn't matter anyway since every instrument is closely mic'ed

[@BrunoNeureiter]

It also can't sound monophonic if you have multiple notes playing all the time

[@vithorazdovsky]

I don't agree. At 360p quality, I have a sufficient sound quality and good stereo image. Every instrument is perfectly clear, sax section reasonably panned on left side and trombones & trumpets on the right. Even the rodes organ plays nicely (I hope in stereo) with characteristic tremolo.

Should be a tribute to King Curtis.

maceo was great during the 80's + 90's, but so boring since. Allways the same old songs...

__ stfu what records you put out

[@zachgross3299]

M.A.S Entertainment got em

[@rinahall]

​@@marksimmonsjr.4520 I have all maceo records since ''all the kings man'' (1970) and I seen him 24 times in France & Spain (first time in 1992 with the JB's + Parlament/Funkadelic). Maceo stops evolving in 2001. That's a fact.

[@pertburton5586]

Must be a lot of bored fans because he packed the house everywhere he plays?

[@rinahall]

@@pertburton5586 what is the connexion beetween the fact maceo doesnt evolve since 90s and the fact he packs the house ? Explains sir !
