Coming back for my annual dose of The Red Cat. 11 years and it never ceases to give me chills. Such a legendary performance.

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thank you!!

[@iballer74]

That’s why I’m here now !😊

[@kenvanlit402]

Saturday morning 6:30 am in Australind. Red Cat has come in again. 😆

[@sungwonkim8870]

that was so nasty... Dane Alderson is no doubt one of the leading bassists of our time

[@procarpenter1788]

One of. One of the leading bassists of our time.

[@lookslikeposty]

The drummer is soo tight 👌🏻 So much groove

[@RogerBiwandu]

Andy Fisenden, great musician/drummer !!!

[@robertrodriguez5354]

I can't believe it's been 12 years! I NEVER get tired of this tune! Especially the last couple of minutes!! You guys are monsters!!!

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thank you!

[@bassguitarmalta]

Dane is such a groovy and melodic bassist. And underrated!

[@wjdfhr57]

Yellowjacket Bassist

[@coolaxe-dw4840]

I don't know about underrated, but he's a baddddddd bass playing musician 🛸🌋

[@christophegaudissart6551]

@@coolaxe-dw4840 i dont understand is it humour ? ihadn t heard about dane before listening this tune and now i am just a big fan what a sound and presence he has it s fabulous sorry i dont speak english very well....

[@RaceTeq17]

There are no words to express how good this is.

[@kosmicdebris5938]

totally agree, even better live!

[@julienarrijs]

Tru dat!

[@ham485]

I cannot believe there is people who disliked this band

[@leedodson3136]

One word to describe them “Killin” it.

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thank you Lee!

[@JerryT21]

BTW the sax solo was insane 💪

[@AustenSummers]

This may be one of the best songs ever created

[@christophegaudissart6551]

the best phrases on bass i ever heard since jaco

[@ed.z.]

Fantastic.

[@TheBoostHeroMan]

Holy crap. Seeing the PJS stands and remembering sitting at Hyde Park hotel, being brought by my Dad and just being immersed in the music holy shit!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Troy, for the nostalgia trip. I remember asking yfor your number to get a private lesson and you told me one of the most important things about music. Even if you play the wrong note, if you play it with confidence, folks wont know its wrong. Thank you.

[@MrRandompower]

Dane is killing it! You can hear the harmony through the entire solo while still playing freely and not chasing the chords! World class! Does someone know the chords for the entire form they are soloing over?

[@JulianFernandez]

It shows maturity and generosity of Troy giving the band long solos, not all band leaders do that... Great piece.

[@ricaard]

JulianFernandez they've grown together, this is the same band (minus the keyboardist) that were playing together when trumpeter extraordinaire James Morrisson found them and asked them to join him for a couple of tours.

[@nigelwilliams5657]

Yep it's clear why Will Kennedy reached out to Dane. Incredible bassist and beautiful solo. This band is just brilliant....love this. Going to enjoy working my way through Void's back catalogue

[@benjamincarney9875]

This is intimidatingly good.

[@pectenmaximus231]

That ending. So much there to learn. Just tied it all up, didn't fizzle out, made sure you knew you just heard something great.

[@cliffsavage2]

Blown!!!!!!!!the fuck out!!!!!!! Arrangements, solos, individual musicality, unision phrasing tight!!tight!!!tight!!. If I want to be anybody, it's these four here. God bless guys and thank you for giving us such a pleasurable song to unwind to and learn from.

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thanks for listening Clifford!

I never get tired of listening to this tune!!!! Bravo 👏

[@Gubgubgoober]

I keep coming back to watching this and it always blows me away!

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thank you!

[@flapworx]

Can't keep myself from listening to this tune....over and over again. Nicest in years!

[@drumology2001]

Yes, please: make a DVD of this gig, would you? I'd buy 10 copies and give it to all my friends who think they know what good music is. :D

[@madbuzz90]

I saw Troy a couple of years ago at the Blue Note, he’s a great band leader. Dane Anderson’s performance here is something else, what a player.

[@eduardkiselov4623]

Amazing drum solo!!!

[@waynematthews8165]

Delving into Dane's past, he's a total beast!

[@otway1]

Always.... aallwwaayysssss great to see and hear Andy Fisenden. Nice work guys.

[@rodneyholmes3826]

this whole thing is amaaaaaazing but that chord right on 17:38 is musical perfection. dayum boys, nailed it!

[@TimHuffman3]

Nice.

[@gingersteve]

Had this on in the background of doing some work. I had to stop for the bass solo, seriously some amazing chops there!

[@nathanjames263]

Brings me to tranquility every time! Love it!

[@kenvanlit402]

Just had my monthly dose of Red Cat.

[@unclejunglebass]

wow the bassist has a great melodic sense. great playing.

[@Huygens9191]

bass sound 's great!

[@bourgeoisbrats]

I agree. He's following changes. He reminds me of a mix of Jeff Berlin and Gary Willis. Lots of really interesting improv ideas :-)

[@aartman01]

I wasn't there but have been blown away many times by Void before exiting P-Town.

[@Puebow]

Everytime every fuckin time it's better...just blows my mind...

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thank you!

[@aartman01]

Heard these guys so many times when I lived in P-Town. Awesome stuff!

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thanks very much! We all went to school together, and are all Australian.

"I love fusion, and I hear it's making a comeback!"

[@AlexisGomes-hh1ue]

Tight, tight, tight

[@Zapulzen]

This is real music! So inspirational! Good vibes :)

[@kurtis4572]

that drum solo and over all tune brings me to crying laughing tears. on the floor how in the heck is that band so talented. Andrew on drums is way off the charts. how is this guy not playing with everyone! He is one of the greats.

[@tomjacques5392]

I was looking for the second like button. Never found... !!!! Esti que c'est excellent.

[@Gusrikh1]

Fantastic....

[@bananapooptime]

So we're all in agreement. This is one of the best compositions ever and the execution is beyond excellent. Now, my question is HOW CAN I OWN THIS RECORDING. It's not on iTunes or anywhere else I've looked. That is a crime.

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

+bananapooptime Our next record is a long way off, simply due to scheduling.. But it will definitely be on the next record!

[@PaulDeemer]

I meeeaan....

[@bananapooptime]

Recently downloaded Tales & Tones on Apple Music, good stuff. Still waiting for this track though so I come to KZbin every once in a while to get my fix haha. Come through to Miami!

[@RonPaulForLiberty42069]

Still eagerly waiting my friend. Hope all is well on your side.

[@marselmusic]

Yeah ikr?

[@rockersun]

love the bassist!

[@isaachgbeis]

Every time I see this video, I get motivate to get better and better, I’m a bass player and Dane is on my favorites/heroes bass player’s, but everyone on this live are amazing musicians, great solos, with high levels of the best in the world

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thank you!

[@isaachgbeis]

@@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic your welcome 🙏

[@doiturself4459]

I'm a teacher and a sax player. This is great to show how to get a great sound for all of the instruments. It's not "open your throat"...it's "relax your throat so the air can expand your throat." If you watch Troy at the beginning it's easy to see that's whats happening.

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Cheers Jon!

[@alvintucker2347]

Michael breckers throat was like literally a balloon. Every time he played his throat doubled in size

[@funkettone]

Woooowww...Dane is enormous!!!!!! Grrrooooooove!!!!!

[@RogerBiwandu]

Great stuff, shout out to Andy Fisenden, great musician/drummer !!! Killer band, cats from Down Under can play no joke !!! PS : Troy, I believe you played with "Tain" right ? Chieftain is the man. 🙂

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

Thank you! These are my brothers! Yes, I was with Jeff for 5 years before joining Joey Defrancesco. I have an album 'Days Like These' with the both of them. Jeff is also on my albums 'Secret Rhymes' and 'Tales & Tones', and I'm on his albums 'Blue Vol. 1', 'Blue Vol. 2' and 'Wattify'.

[@RogerBiwandu]

@@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic Right on Troy awesome, and you play on some of my favourite song like "Lenalane" and "May 15, 2011", beautiful !!! Merci for your message, you take care and see you around. PS : I guess you had the pleasure to speak "australian" with Laura... 🙂

[@tomarikawa]

massive

[@toyrobot99ToyRobotMusic]

cheers!

[@jg0r]

wooooooooooooooooooooooo. We need a new void CD, and live DVD.

[@andreasoutitoudhs]

i love it...

[@billiongenius]

Judging by the comments, I wonder how many people watched to the end. Lots of comments on the bass player, but if you missed it, go back and watch Andy's drum solo at the end!

[@funkettone]

great great great Troy...great great great Void...WOW!!!!

@chrissypoodle this guy is the sax player, the drummer Andy Fisenden, has his own channel andydrums22
