Studio Jams #53 - "Funk Jam"

Here is one of several tracks from Studio Jams Episode #53, taped "On The Road" at Subcat Studios in Syracuse, New York. It features, among others, bassist Gerald Veasley, saxophonist Andrew Neu and, from Syracuse, drummer Dave Hanlon and saxophonist Evan Knight. For more on the series, go to www.StudioJams.com.

I love how it's not just one groove straight through, but that they're conscious of putting different sections to help transition solos and to move the song along dynamically.

[@contactkeithstack]

Andrew Neu is straight gifted/dedicated sounding. Inspiring player. Love the guitar player Wendell too.

[@GPSjammer]

These guys are grooving hard! Took some time for them all to get comfortable, but they sure got there! Right during the alto solo I think.

[@EricBalcon]

I like Evan Knight's variations...very cool.

[@codeywings10]

Nothing quite like hearing some of your favorite musicians playing together

[@codeywings10]

I know right

[@Belchmaster41]

when the song starts, I think it's at 108 BPM

[@wasup8264]

ive listened to this like 6 times in the last two days lmao, too good

[@youngandrew66]

Funking awesome. Lifting Andrew's tenor lines for my own left right and centre - also from ain't no stopping us- another jam. Picking up stuff from players like this is worth a thousand scales and longtones. Ugghh! Thanks chaps.

[@Pedrorocks1092]

I love studio jams

[@gado__]

robert bromley its nice, the bass player seems like a fun guy

[@gado__]

Lol I wrote this 7 months ago and thought the exact same thing now

[@singerdog]

I've enjoyed both

[@thegreatestbassist]

Yeah....the pre-talk (setup) is really DOPE. I dig it too Robert. By the way, that's a great first name you've got there!!

[@vickipaterson8931]

Ahhfunky ; could hear a swing change in the sax solo😜in my mind. Superb guys😎

[@vickipaterson8931]

(The first sax solo)😁

[@tobinator123]

This must be heaven

[@tysonreesmusic]

I love how much they love what they do!

[@Saxman72241]

Nice funk mode. I’m loving this jam👊🏽🎷

[@Belchmaster41]

I'm thinking: instead of the 🎹 playing most of the harmony/solo, that should be done on a Hammond B3 Organ (like the one Joey DeFrancesco plays)

[@michaelosullivan7087]

tenor got a great tone.fantastic player

[@ZINCOVIX8754]

Amazing performance.

[@gbell2064]

[@djlatino3229]

I've just discovered this video. Very cool jam !

[@c0nk2879]

This is my 3rd comment, lol but you guys should release some actual hard stuff, with originals like this as well as standards, ive never seen a bad musician on one of these videos and you even got Bela who i was lucky enough to see live a couple months ago, but really, i would buy this all day, amazing stuff

[@bernardpejot]

Evan knight!! Holy cow, nice chops..The new and improved Kenny Jerod or is that Jarrett see what I mean. gonna have stanky face all day now

[@vadiksham4483]

Классно всё таки исполнили )

[@loelstein]

Unreal

[@RuleofThump]

I'm guessing the recorded sound is DI from the bass/amp, he plays a 115 on this video which means he must have had plenty of low end in that room...but that doesn't say a thing for the dry signal... Just guessing... usually he sounds great.

[@tomek9966]

Po prostu zajebiste!

[@danallen2005]

Get on with your bad self. Awesome guys

[@sloperdad4835]

Sweet.

[@superuser1005]

Great!!!

[@bustaknutt7729]

Is this a cover or something new created there and then? I had to listen to this back-to-back... 'twas so nice had to play it twice!!!

[@codeywings10]

It was an original that stemmed from the groove that Gerald played.

[@josephvotta6698]

Yea, baby!

[@madyeti3224]

That’s is a thing of sonic beauty…

[@StudioJams]

That would be Wendell "Pops" Sewell, from Philadelphia, PA (USA)

[@atsushikudou3905]

[@BassCrow]

How do I get in on this?

[@Guitarbeginner_]

♡♡♡♡♡

[@FabioGrando]

yeeeeeeeeeeeah

[@Natefunk49]

this could have really been hot had gerald put some bottom in that bass! bass players nowadays like sounding like rubber bands

[@c0nk2879]

Backing track please!!!!!!!!!!

[@daveross6103]

Ear candy!

[@cptrubberpants]

Could someone help with chords in the bridge? There is one chord that just escapes me.

[@Thatguy301]

In these studio jam recordings Geralds tone is always kinda clicky for whatever reason. Also, speaker diameter and perceived low-end aren't actually a connected thing. Not with more modern gear anyway.

[@filipebratti]

Who is this guitarrist?

[@bernardpejot]

HELLO guy's ! I am so sad, that I can't explain to joung musicians how to play" just in time" and not "everytime" (special dedicace to the guitarists "AMATEURS" )

[@lucianososa1833]

hi hat is that ?
