Snarky Puppy - Lingus (Cory Henry Solo)

October 16th 2015, Tivoli Vredenburg, Utrecht, NL

[@Chris-px2gf]

In this his era of Cory, Cory was one of the best piano players the world has ever seen, that's not an overstatement.

[@JDIASPRODUCTIONS]

This version makes me cry, like I have discovered another universe of sound.

[@JBDirect]

this is one of the most interesting ways he reinvents this solo in my opinion. I try to watch all of them to understand his different styles of approach to this same E/C/A/F pattern.... I've got to say we all already give him props for the original, but this one and his solo at the Rex are my favorite. Keep killing Doc, I'm listenin.

[@aweso100]

Those are great ones. The one in Denton Texas is my fave.

[@VynxeVainglory]

Yes. This solo was OUTRAGEOUS.

[@hskshag00]

if you haven't seen it yet, his solo in Montreal is also up there imo

[@spilur]

This is the most personal solo I've heard so far from Henry Cory. I am a sucker for crowdpleaser solos, and having listened to some of Corys solos, this one is different in my humble opinion. He always brings something new to the table. Tweaking and exploring. The audience applause is normally energizing, but having your own inner artistic vision of what your own true aspiration is, might not always a crowdpleaser. Power to Cory and all musicians who express themselves and touches a core in us.

@@hskshag00 the one in Montreal is my favourite

[@BauerHouse]

I feel like I've become a scholar on this song. As a jazz pianist looking for new ways to approach things, I have really enjoyed listening to and transcribing Cory's various approaches to this song. This particular solo is one of my favs. Thanks for posting it

[@Clk9057]

wow! I follow this solo everywhere it appears, ever since Scala London 2014 and this is such a beautiful version! A nice approach to each root this time round

[@laeb08]

This is my favorite variant of Cory's Lingus solo

[@Jeddersfield]

I love how creative Cory is with his solos. 5:40 - 6:00 is absolutely ridiculous

[@simonh1349]

i can only feel his pain when he fucked up the little transition after his great solo haha ,but that happens to the best of em

[@hskshag00]

My jaw literally dropped at 5:55

[@cosmicparsec9463]

@@simonh1349 The transition sounded like a vignette from any Japanese tv show haha

[@NINT3ND0master]

This is my favorite version for sure. And side note 7:01-7:11 is one of the best licks I’ve ever heard in my life.

[@GrumpyStormtrooper]

bebop is modern!!!!

Mad scientist Cory's experiment lab..

[@OzemirMonteiro]

Cada vez mais incrível e insano! Cory Henry is amazing!

[@The_Superdwarf]

Endless reinvention, amazing every time

[@Guitareben]

This is just... Woah.

[@AeroStuffFPV]

7:01 reminds me when you slide over a banana in mario kart

[@GrumpyStormtrooper]

3:47 he created his own song within the song and 7:02 that lick is ridiculous

[@LuisFlores-xr5bu]

That's a good solo, a song into a song

[@jamesdacus7367]

the sound around 3:40 is so dope

[@petrokemikal]

2.36 sounds like when you first get to outer space in your ship and the sun comes into view ;]

Fucking hell man

[@teelucksarvesh9209]

Disgusting. I love it.

[@espenboholm1112]

wow...

[@ecolobrodu]

7:00

[@AABatteries321]

What is the chord at 0:53 ? I hear a D diminished 6th (if that's even an extension lol), but I'm not sure.

[@AABatteries321]

As a matter of fact, I also need to know what scale he's soloing over that chord with.

[@harrystill7579]

E7#9

[@NINT3ND0master]

AABatteries321 he's playing an E7 chord

[@georgerussell2947]

E7 with E dominant-lydian scale
