Snarky Puppy - Gretel (Bonus Version) [We Like It Here (Remixed + Remastered + Reimagined)]

[@groundUPmusicNYC]

Hi everyone! We're so excited to see the love on this early version of "Gretel."

[@yesloow]

Does it have every take of Cory Henry's Lingus solo ;)?

[@hvglaser]

Any plans to release on Bandcamp?

[@MindRabbits]

cool version, I was waiting for bass dropdown at the final phrases, but Cory was playing something different :)

[@roncronovich9095]

Why $250 for the 4-LP set?

[@javiertatsuo3890]

Come back soon again to Argentina and play some💎💎💎💎 from SYLVA🙌🙌🙌

[@TheKunalsan]

Bruh how many songs did larnell learn on that flight istg

[@donyoung5091]

I need to take that flight LOL

[@enocdiaz3248]

Michael: How many songs can you learn? Larnell: Yes

[@An_Arbitrary_Miscellany]

I'll take a little more volume...

[@michaiahbryan6409]

Asking the important questions. Because 🤯

[@David-iv6je]

Just give a top drummer some charts and he'll be fine. Some of the more complex songs were doubtlessly much tougher, but this isn't one of them.

[@PDexters]

RIP Shawn Martin. Legend!

[@Crusuma]

I didn't know until now 😢 yellow jacket is one of my favorite songs.

[@Jared45513]

I never herd him play untill I discovered we like it here, I was like who is this dude with a talk box hooked to his keyboard? then they played "sleeper". Im a grown man and i broke down in tears it was so good. His emotions coming through his instrument were so real. He sleeps now. RIP brother.

And Reignite Film, they did a collaboration with Zack Brock that was fire

I'll take Louis Cole, and since they opened for Steely Dan, maybe Donald Fagen can come as well pretty please 🥹

It was a treat seeing new footage of Shaun, even if for just a second.

[@vjthehandsome5659]

You telling me there's an alternate universe where this (my favorite track from Sylva) ended up on We Like It Here (my favorite Snarky Puppy album)?

[@thetomster7625]

wait, I just realized: was this almost on the album?

[@Hattyhattington90]

Rip Shaun Martin. This version made my day

[@dennisjherron]

I am a DJ and I thought I had music in the bag... then I went down the Snarky rabbit hole. Now you and everything stemming from Puppyville is on my daily playlist. RIP Sean

[@okuhleminyi8143]

The best piece of film music that does not yet belong to a film.

[@bikeweiss]

When you think you're listening to a cover but it's actually the original!

[@zombieeater1817]

I hope to see the other bonus tracks perfomed live one day. For example Jefe. Great perfomance, as always❤

[@Spiderlanky]

Honestly beautiful. This song just swept me away. I've had it on repeat for a while now and it's not getting old.

[@Simeon_Harris]

oof. so tight! love that cheeky little noise that someone slipped in at 3:47 (in the space)

[@georgiethedrummer]

[@spdcrzy]

SP is SO. TIGHT. That ending minute is incredible.

[@tylindsey19]

This truly sounds like a song that belongs on the soundtrack of a Bond movie or some other action/thriller. Love it! Also, I must have been living under a rock these past months, as I was unaware of Shaun's passing. May he be at peace and all those who loved him be comforted.

[@DrummerBoi1993]

Man!!! Seeing Shaun....I STILL can't believe he's gone!! But my mind is blown that this was originally recorded for We Like It Here....now to hear the finished product on the SYLVA record... unbelievable! Is there anything the Pups CAN'T do??

What omg they played Gretel as well in this?! 😮✨

[@groundUPmusicNYC]

"Gretel" was originally written and recorded for 'We Like It Here' but didn't make the final tracklist, and then was re-visted with the Metropole Orkest for 'Sylva' :)

[@JosephHayes-x1h]

OMG!!!! LOVE THIS !!! RIP Shawn Martin.

[@Tyler_Silva]

Always loved this tune, but hearing this alt take and seeing Shaun doing his thing, mixed with realizing that Snarky has been in my life 10 years this year..... I'm now in (very happy) tears.

[@conniescup]

My favorite group in the entire world!!!! I’ve got to see yall in concert again. I have a picture of me a Shawn when yall performed in Asheville!!! Love you guys! ❤

[@ACsPianoCorner]

WOW!! What a version. All these years have past and you’re music still sends me on a rollercoaster of emotion. Just incredible musicianship, keep them coming. RIP Shaun Martin, a legend that is truly missed…😭🙂.

[@FLPXIZ]

Incredible !!!!

[@RastaFudge]

RIP SHAUN MARTIN, THIS IS SO PEAK 😭

[@JacobLovesDrumming]

What an awesome surprise! We Like It Here was the album that really started my jazz-fusion adventure!

[@ytnsanw]

This (Snarky Puppy in general) is basically the pinnacle of modern ensemble performance.

[@ChristopherMurtagh]

I love the harmonies in this song. What an incredible piece!

[@Malletdude31]

Wow this version is incredible. It's just a hair faster and adds so much more energy to the whole piece.

[@johnstamos4325]

THANK YOU! Been listening to We Like It Here for YEARS and NEVER HEARD this song before.

[@Yakushii]

What an absolute treat! I never knew this existed. What else are you hiding from me? I had a bit of a reaction to seeing Shaun here. Just seeing him in something I hadn't seen before, gave me that "still here" feeling.

[@Oldmanbraun]

Wasn’t expecting to feel this many feelings so early in the morning. Thank you 🙏

[@PaulMcCaffreyfmac]

Thanks so much for all this extra We Like It Here treasure. These videos are the easiest things to watch from start to finish and then once more for the sheer joy of it.

[@carloslaurenzmastering]

Music from Heaven! Thank you Shaun! Thank you Snarky!

[@Phil-bv6pb]

WHAT a Glorious noise , Kudos to ALL involved ... EPIC musical journey , brought to you - Puppystyle .

This version is amazing. Love it! RIP Martin.

[@Cujohhh]

[@Love-LIMDEFL]

It's cool that after so many years you are releasing the story.

This hits like a cinematic score to a western shooter set in the middle east. Such an epic sound.

Another version of Gretel😍

[@Gracebeliever077]

Incredible! I'd like to thank the pedal steel guitarist Gary Carter for mentioning Snarky Puppy in an interview that I read a few years ago. Just amazing music!

[@Psalm136HisMercyEnduresForever]

So excellent.

Actually, finally we see Hansel's perspective on Gretel. ;-) Wonderful version!

[@TotoRobocop]

What vision to have this ready for this album, record it, have it be fire, and then be like, "Nah, it needs a full orchestra of straight killers, let's save it for later."

[@BlameItOnGreg]

Wow, the trombones really added a lot to the Sylva version. Surprised to not see even one on this earlier version.

[@skipmessier765]

Hopefully the rest of the videos on We Live Here will be remixed/remastered/reimagined. We Live Here is my favorite release of theirs and this looks and sounds significantly better and was great to begin with !

[@Joe-nb3fs]

Always wondered why the strings section was there. I could never hear it in the mix. Fun to get a track where they are really featured.

[@hugodealmeida76]

Top!

[@nicksisti4026]

Omg it was so weird not hearing the “WAAAAAAAOOOO” at 3:37

[@teddykgb9971]

Interesting to see/hear it played with this group, but the instinct to save it for Sylva was the correct one. WLIH is a different vibe.

[@galelongputt]

I was hoping for a rippin' guitar solo...😊

[@carlosclaptrix]

30:00 Susanne Rosmolen! 🌷

[@aaronpimanfo4854]

Merciiiiiiiii🙏💙 (RIP brother Shaun🤍)

[@thetomster7625]

honestly: the original had a little more roughness in the string sounds and obviously that mighty brass sound, which was just a little bit fatter and more gritty. but other then that, how lovely to see Larnell in it and Michael conducting ^^ and absolutely crazy what a fat sound you can get with only those few strings

[@andredalmayt]

Lindo!!!!!

[@alfinsatriani]

what!!! gretel was in here!?!?🤯

[@romanieo]

No way he learned this on the plane. Bruh.

[@GavinLangOfficial]

RIP Shaun Martin @shunwun...So good to hear this version of Gretel, no less amazing than the version on Sylva. Wondering why the audio seems to be a millisecond behind the visuals... does anybody else pick up on that? Or is it because Larnell plays faster than the speed of sound? See you in Auckland in May!

Gretel cheat code for musicians... imagine 4/4 time but beats 2 and 4 are shorter than beats 1 and 3 -- Long+Short+Long+Short = 1-2-3-4, i.e., 5/8 time subdivided 3+2 -- Every. Single. Measure. 😎

[@deangiavaras2101]

from the RED Audio Technica days....!

[@Morganstudios]

What!!!??? With Larnell???? =D

[@srv232]

Was this recorded during the same session as some of the other songs on YT?

[@groundUPmusicNYC]

Yes, this is from the original recording sessions! "Gretel" was originally written and recorded for 'We Like It Here,' but didn't make the final tracklist, and was later revisited with The Metropole Orkest for 'Sylva' which is the version you're probably familiar with :)
