Yellowjackets: Live from Jazz St. Louis

[@jimmyfigueras4476]

This is what I’m talking about!! This is jazz! I love “Ancestors”!!

[@frankf.6639]

The genius of Russell Ferrante….

[@idalb11]

I keep looking for a button saying "Pay here" - How is it that one can sit here listening to these geniuses for free ?, and over and over again. Thanks for sharing ! Yellowjackets, man !, a favourite for many years ! Love the (new...) bassist too - priceless :-)

[@CharlesMSmithToday]

The level of creative genius and technical precision here is astounding!

[@inkolononkulunkulu]

Dane Alderson!!! He is such an incredible bass player, he plays with so much authority, grooves with so much agilizy, Big up to you man

Simply the greatest Jazz/Fusion quartet on the planet.

Will Kennedy... best time keeping ever ! and always grooving, even when doing nothing... I love this musical drummer

[@fisch69]

I’m a fan for years! Great to have them in The Lou!🎉🎉👍👍

Hey Will Kennedy, I'm the guy with the little green skull cap at the Indianapolis jazz kitchen shows you guys always give us a night to remember, superb jazz great after show conversations pictures what a night.

[@catherineleymarie9161]

Yellow Jackets' genius lies in lightness. Each composition is a nugget, revealing a rare harmonic richness and subtlety beneath its ingenuous exterior. A trip to Yellow country is always an incomparable experience.

[@bikergeekgd]

Words can't express how much I love this band. I have had the privilege of seeing them live at least four times. Carry on, Yellowjackets.

[@carlosnagy]

The Jacktes, one of the best Jazz groups of all times. Jackets Forever..!!

[@waynematthews8165]

This performance brings back so many memories of the era I grew to know the Yellowjackets. I was such a massive fan of Jimmy's playing during that time. Has to be said Dane has raised the game, he's got the lot! Plus he has a sound that perfectly suits the band. Now he's on fretless. Impeccable intonation, so much tonal variety always with a thick bottom end. 3 albums and 7 years in, he's a proven keeper! Such a humble guy too. It's easy to see the guys love having him around. I really hope they make it to the UK.

[@rogerringold616]

Horrible when jimmy left, Russo left....Dane is the best sub. He is different, but close to jimmy. But jimmy actually spent time with Jaco. Ear jimmy haslip Otmaro Ruiz jimmy Branly....Red Wall....I been a fan since the Hornet 1981 Ricky Lawson rip....Robben Ford.....if he coulda waited....Marc, Will, Russel and Jimmy is my favorite lineup.

[@SetFree2020]

Finally the engineer got Will's bass drum sounding so nice and punchy on Parallel Motion. Congrats on the Grammy nomination, guys. It couldn't be better placed. I can not stop listening and playing my kit to this wonderful bit of YellowJacket history! Loving Dane on bass!!! Phenomenal!!!!!

[@leoniea138]

How cool is this . Been following them since 70's...proudly the LP's ...glad i still have mine

[@demaginheart1239]

Completely captivating and full of interest. Really love the bass solo at 14:30 min/sec. I'd listen to it anytime ! :>)))

Le bassiste est vraiment incroyable !!!! Le groupe également ...

[@DH-zt9tw]

First time hearing Dane Alderson. Fucking amazing musiciian and the lock between him and Will as good as it gets!

[@smeetos]

Have you heard Dane with Andrew Fisenden? In my opinion, their lock was better. Andy and Dane complimented each other so well and took good rhythm sections to whole new level. Search VOID on Spotify. Keen to hear what you think.

[@thegougeman]

Will Kennedy - one of the most underrated drummers out there. He is a top notch groove master and gentlemen. He has such a great pocket that keeps this band locked together.

[@honoreabbealle8270]

A group tha I loved it since 1988. No comment. Super

[@inkolononkulunkulu]

[@jasongarey8329]

What can one say about this level of talent, connection, and joy of expression? I've been following Russ and the group's evolution since the beginning and it always seems brand new. I love what Dane has brought to the group. Exquisite compositions handled with such deft. Thank you Yellowjackets!

[@stevegardner9910]

Can’t wait to see them in Baltimore next month. Been a fan for 33 years and have never seen them live.

[@WynMills1]

Greenhouse gives me the chills, when you realise this was written back in 91 and where we are now with climate change.

[@waynematthews8165]

The strings sounded like they'd been sampled from the original recording! So lush, couldn't have been an original Triton patch??

I've been a fan of Yellowjackets for over 25 years. They are my favorite band and I've seen them twice. They are at their best in this show. Jackets are never loud and overpowering. They are always crisp, clean and melodic. They are never ragged; always precise. Since you're already tuned in, you're in for a treat.

[@its_james88perry51]

never overpowering, they make you want more but they give you exactly the amount you need... a treat indeed...

[@davidsheriff9274]

Check out their first album with Robben Ford.

[@Copernicus2013]

Greenhouse and Like a River are my favorite Yellowjackets recordings, recorded 30 years ago! Greenhouse with the Metropole orchestra is amazing live as well.

[@stever.9925]

[@jnr121919]

Kudos to Russell for coaching Mintzer for decades to play from his soul not just mind, your work is paying off, as a band just brilliant, Will Kennedy remains consistently and inconspicuously outstanding as usual. Dane, I love that you embraced the spirit YJ before actually becoming one and we are all proud of you. (no dis to the Great Jimmy Haslip without which the earlier trajectory would have been very different, and our enjoyment would have missed this current evolution. (Listening since 1981)

[@reh331]

Superb dynamics in a venue that is obviously as acoustically sensitive as a church. Will Kennedy nails it even at such low volume.
