XXII Klaipeda Castle Jazz Festival 2016 Jojo Mayer, Klaipeda Jazz Orchestra - Full

[@crissignori7482]

I’d say this is as good as it gets for a drummer playing Buddy’s tunes today. Jo Jo is simply the tops. Thanks for the memories Buddy and RIP.

[@fabbux]

JoJO Mayer in Lituania? wow!!!!!! bellissimo

[@kostaspapoutsis935]

for everyone that comment the drum sound, first learn to play like that! and if you where not there you cant really tell. it s a pure sounding upload.

[@budisaputro4963]

an orchestra with jojo's character. his soul is damn wonderful

[@BPJazz]

Playing swing-jazz well is always a challenge. No matter how good a drummer is.

[@HouseJawn]

One of my favorite concerts on KZbin, thanks for uploading this, love it 💕 🥁 🎺

[@crissignori7482]

Gorgeous sound .... and pure class. Jo Jo is totally in another league on so many levels. I am not crazy at all for Greg Potter and the BR memorial band ... but this just puts a huge smile on my face. I saw Buddy seven times in concert so I well remember what the boss was all about and this just brings back so many fond memories. Thank you Jo Jo ... superb band, too.

[@うのまろ]

6:15 Superhuman recovery skills

[@drmrzrul12]

I was watching a video of his earlier thinking 'man never seen this guy drop a stick, what a machine'. Good to know he's human lol

[@johnsandlin7474]

Easy to lose a stick playing on a set up unlike the one you are used to using. Still a good cymbal/stick grab! After all...he is a master.

[@FD136]

Took him long to find a new stick :D

[@autechren]

and the beat goes on

[@0509killer]

he really wanted to make sure that cymbal got muted

[@urokivokala]

Thank you sencerely! How would I dream to sing along such an orchestra and especially Jojo

[@JETX1990]

[@GorcStew]

Thx for post...for someone with a jazz background not many jazz videos of him :S

[@officialmetalwill]

While Jojo is very much into jazz and pulls a lot of his influences from jazz drummers, he really isn't a "jazz drummer" per se.

[@paulysci925]

Will Castillo jojo is a total jazz drummer who segued into electronic music

[@HiFisch94]

Will Castillo he was playing jazz for a long time of his early career

[@jamesconnors5653]

[@GorcStew]

anybody know exactly what crashes he uses in video? I see two AAs

[@renemangindaan]

The stick of Jojo is up side down at first song, What is the benefit ? Drummer could you explain....

[@kaschamacka8681]

its one way to Play quicker (ghost)notes, if you mean the left hand

[@kevinbieri4904]

it is traditional grip. Today most player play matche grip.

Quién sabe que modelo de batería es ?

[@moziproductions9661]

[@IzZyRaWr]

"Time Check," I believe.

[@fayneplaysdrums]

What's the name of the last tune?

[@bellazhang8485]

what's that song from 20:35

[@Nomfyy]

dont ask Nutville

[@jaymlyon]

The Beat Goes On was a gift to his daughter (not to the audience with all respect) and should have received a pass. The band however did a great job on this timeless tone (rip Bonny).

[@slayer8273]

Whats the song called at the beginning ?

[@petermautner1013]

Love For Sale.

[@mellilore]

One could complain about the drums sound (too muffled, I think Jojo could have durst something more open, resonant and "classic" with a big band environment like this) and about his own fills (definitely he has good single stroke roll enough to use less bass drum into his fills and sound a little bit more "Buddy-esque", but you can't really argue personal tastes, more than over in Art). Still Jojo is the modern answer to the Almighty Buddy IMHO. And many many many compliments to the band, maybe not as tight as Buddy's ones but very very very good nonetheless! Thank you for posting!!!

[@jasoncavitt2043]

Nice post, mellilore. Probably the best thing an artist can do to honor an influential musician is to digest the source material fully, then render the covers as "originally" as possible. Of course, this particular performance is more of an homage situation, so no doubt It's a fine line to walk. I would have liked to hear more of the traditional open and ringing sound with a "bigger" big band type of bravado. In a few spots these guys sound a tad clunky, almost like they could have used a bit more rehearsal time. But big thumbs up overall -- excellent musicianship on display.

[@mellilore]

Eh... I'm afraid the only way to make them rehearsal enough to cover the last 15-20% in order to fit 100% is having them playing 24 gigs in a month, take them altogether around in a bus and put on that bus.... Buddy!!! :) But you're definitely right, "excellent musicianship on display".

[@jasoncavitt2043]

Definitely, agreed. Outdoor acoustics are impossible, and like mellilore says, these guys would need to undertake an active gig schedule for some time before they began to cohere at a high level. It's good stuff though.

[@mellilore]

This shows pretty good it's all relative :) Once 100% agreed that outdoor acoustics are quite impossible, let me tell you that I usually tend to be happy with his snare sound and quite happy with his bass drum sound, what I don't dig as much are his toms, and this happens each time I watch Jojo on the tube, not only this time. Look, I'm in no way criticizing him... who ever could??? plus on an "electric" small combo environment as Nerve and other things can be, that's very possibly the way one has to go. LOL at myself... You know what? I guess I just got way too used to listen at Buddy's drums.

[@tonyr2360]

There is another video on KZbin from this concert with the song Time Check. The audio is worlds above the audio from this upload. I think you'll find the drum sound you're looking for in that video. Jojo solos and the drums resonate beautifully.

[@javiergilhidalgo8429]

6:15 Gods also bleed

[@ghart56]

Inga thanks babe. Taylor Hawkins, (foo fighters), could use a few lessons from JoJo.

[@tedbouras373]

much better than greg potter with the BR band.

[@HenryPerez_royal_hp]

ugh

[@JesseP.Watson]

26:42 "Note to self: never to do this kind of crap again."

[@paulysci925]

Watson's Bubble who invited that broad to perform i wonder not very impressive

[@JesseP.Watson]

N'yeah. Cruise ship stuff... Cringe.

[@JesseP.Watson]

No, after watching some of this again... Jojo or no Jojo this whole thing is f****** abysmal. It's the epitome of a fecking god awful band of random session players picked out of the phone book with a set list probably chosen by the local mayor... (Not the local Mayer). Terrible. ...Soul-less supermarket swing.

[@CheshireCatband]

Lithuania. Not exactly NYC or NO lol

[@transactor77]

IT speed up the time a little at 09:13

[@Wajlonis]

I'm pretty sure Jojo is either a superhuman cyborg from the future or an ancient highly advanced alien from the other side of the galaxy, but whatever his purpose for visiting Earth was he got distracted and became a drummer instead...

[@mark-remanHamilton]

lost a stick then didn't have another one handy. anybody else would've been fired .. floor toms higher than the snare? uhhhh

[@basilrug]

Jojo..one of the best in the world....but I gotta say..,,,,,,,.Buddy made it look so damn easy, didn't he?

[@farshimelt]

Lithuania, who'd a thunk it?

[@murep]

One of the best in the world, but the drums sounds are terrible. Ride cymbal is too small and does not sound like an A cymbal. Snare is now where near crisp enough and toms are muffled. Funny cause he is sooooo into great sound. However , drumming is mad great. Love JoJo and love him with a big band. He does it all.

[@JGBDYT]

The whole mix is shit, I don't think the real problem here is the kit

[@potniykatochnik7283]

джо джо маер сдал:( седой старичок:) но жарит не подетски!

[@CamiloMoyaBaterista]

The best drummer on the planet, SORRY!!

[@VioletAOP416]

Frank Lyons then who would you say is?

[@VioletAOP416]

Frank Lyons I mean jeez man, I was just curious to see what kind of drummer you like. You didn't need to belittle everyone who ever liked JoJo mayer. I mean, he's probably my favorite, though Dave Weckl is certainly a beast.

[@ItsBriiiiii]

Jim Gordon is the greatest living drummer if we are talking about talent, resume, and credits, and what he did for drumming AND music.

[@VioletAOP416]

No One I was under all impressions that Jim Gordon was the cop in Batman, I am sorry.

[@steveross8326]

Brian Brian, my dear chap, there is absolutely no such as 'The Greatest' with respect to music........to say there is shows an incredible lack of maturity and understanding. There are only musicians you personally prefer to listen to........do grow up, there's a good chap.

[@jonathanqmaldonado2145]

this is my first time see jojo playing jazz... o..m.g... its like nothing to him. i can totally see through watching this how complex playing electronic music on an acoustic kit can be

[@hoganbentle3582]

I disagree... I think Jojo is very unfamiliar to jazz territory and is newer to it, which shows in his playing.

[@steveross8326]

I'm a massive Mayer fan, but this just doesn't sit well at all....Jo Jo looks uncomfortable and the band are real messy in places.....it hurts me to say that too.

[@Chao-j8r]

jojoはフルバンのドラマーではない埋没している、シンコべも使ってハモらないと!!ガッカリしました。コンボでやって下さい。

[@Chao-j8r]

それからハイハットとワイヤーブラシの使い方を１から勉強しないとドラマー居ないのと同じです。

[@mixandry-sound]

too much noise from the drummer, without a glass fences

[@DanLetts97]

Surprisingly boring solo

[@nairbas392]

This is just depressing

[@santiagobass7477]

great musicians, but.. too much drummer :)
