Mezzoforte - E.G. Blues (Live In Reykjavik)

[@kitchen76]

‘Dad, how does a Strat sound?’ ‘Hang on son....I’ll find you the perfect example’ Amazing still. I saw Mezzoforte last night. Tight as a snare. Even after 42 years, their music remains timeless

[@jakobole]

Yup - that's how a Strat sounds.

[@arjenvannoppen6342]

What I miss is comments about the bass player. Being one myself I think he's awesome

[@jingle1161]

another bass player here, the guy is a monster. super tight. Watched them live in Paradiso somewhere late 80's. In fact the whole band is awesome. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4fPl6ypbdlskMU

[@th.s.871]

A really tight slapper with empathic play!

[@ingivalgeirs]

Dont worry Jóhann Ásmundsson is one of á KIND and he is founding member of Mezzoforte and out of this world Bass player💯+++

[@arjenvannoppen6342]

@@ingivalgeirs That is nice to hear. I think he's awesome!

[@arjenvannoppen6342]

@@ingivalgeirs That is nice to hear, thanks!

[@acuy700ify]

I love the beat, this group is really awesome ❤

[@chaparganju]

heard this music in late 80s and its still fresh.

[@roverade1]

got to love mezzo...they always look like there just jamming it out, and loving every minute

[@ArtinSinger]

IMHO it’s one of the best guitar solos in the world ever played 👍👍👍 Very intelligent, very varied and perfect in time and groove! 😎

[@jakobole]

It's up there, that's for sure!

[@arjenvannoppen6342]

I fully agree. Masterful!

[@fieldofblues]

GROOVE!!! I listened the guitar solo 15-20 times then i played some funky blues stuff on my strat It is AWESOME!!

[@jwoolridge]

How come these guys are soooo gooooddddd!!! Every song they play is off the hook!! Very seldom you get an album by a group or band and every song on the album is nice. Great job Mezzoforte!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU GUYS...and you play your instruments with comfort, class & confidence....soooo smooth!!!

[@chriskirilov7030]

Need to contact the organisation staff , organizing the Montreal Jazz Festival and ask them to bring Mezzoforte..

[@ChristianSchonbergerMusic]

The "Strat guy" is Bruno Müller from Germany. For some reason I think we germans aren't given the credit as musicians, especially in the "virtuoso and soulful" department. Perhaps it's because the established music industry in Germany only produces crap as we are speaking. That doesn't mean there are some very highly talented lads and lasses from this country. Here's one. Ever listened to Barbara Dennerlein on the Hammond and pipe organ? All way underrated comparted to anglo-americans IMHO.

[@alessandrosilva3012]

Great guitarist! Awesome!

[@CAGED1702]

True dat! 👍

[@v8nagrom]

4:04 The facial expression when you realize that you've just played the solo of your life.

[@skatter3112]

This is a solo beyond compare, in a band that can not be comprimized :-)

[@skjalgbjrstad9257]

"E.G." is the initials of the keyboardist and composer Eythor Gunnarson.

[@EmirSaleh]

Aaaaah thanks....just know it

[@fretlessfender]

Bassplayer....

[@pablocostanz7500]

They are really good, I don´t miss my favorite tunes by Carlton, Bob James, and the all american groove. Very very cool...Bjork and me with both thumbs up!! Regards. Pablo from Buenos Aires.

[@Baharaputra]

Cool music from the cool island, just fantastic!!!

[@abdullatiftamanong5153]

My favorite Blues jamm.. Amazing talented mezzoforte

[@Mickee2605]

[@davidlees1366]

I didn't like jazz untill I herd sum of this groups stuff and WOW

[@coolworx]

One of my favourite guitar solos. I especially love the point were the trumpet player thinks it's his turn... not yet! 3:00

[@krzysieks.442]

I think the trumpet player well knows, when he'll play - he's simply blowing the trumpet to keep it warm before solo ;)

[@studioonetutorials]

I also think Noah is very wrong.

[@jacekdrzycimski8555]

and maybe additionally removing condensed water vapour and saliva ;)

[@garage6346]

I've listened to this countless times now, and everytime I think: How did that Strat learn to play Bruno Müller in such a great way?

[@grahamhendricks7087]

Brilliant bass, check out Four Corners

[@gyulamatisz2741]

Jolly good job! Ennyit tudok angolul.

[@keysnstix]

@2:52 I know that lick, what's that again? I think it's from a famous Jazz tune, but I can't remember the title

[@keysnstix]

Nevermind, it's from Adderley's "Sack of Woe"

The keyboard solo at 5:45 at 1.5x speed sounds like Mario Kart :D
