The level of musicianship in this band - top to bottom - is ridiculous. This is a dream team, I hope they keep going, more albums, more touring, for a long time to come. Thank you Minneapolis for providing the world with such incredible raw talent and chemistry!

You can thank Prince for their magnificent gloriousness! #NPGhornz #TheHornheads 💜 Check this out - a prime example (if one was ever needed!) of them at their best - showing their versatility over the space of ten choice funky, fOnky minutes: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vp1Ze60wJWg.html (Play LOUD!) Even though Cory is forging his own path (and rightly so - and oooh boy is he ever doing so with style and panache…and then some!) I feel so much of Prince’s vibe in him in what he creates and how he presents it for others to enjoy. It’s participatory. Cory is the real deal and I know that Prince is looking on, so very proud. Cory knows what he’s doing, and he’s renewed my faith these past few years proving unequivocally that the Minneapolis Sound is still very much alive! That’s no small feat. REAL MUSIC BY REAL MUSICIANS! 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜 💜

The way Cory goes so hard on stage when he’s home to the way he interacts with his band during the set, showcasing the sheer talent of every musician. This guy will go down as one of the greats. He is a better version of “The Entertainer” that Billy Joel sang about.

@Mikri90 2 года назад

With every released video Cory is cementing his place as my favorite musician in existence. Guy just owns his stuff, owns the scene and, first and foremost, freaking LOVES to do what he does. So full of excitement, passion, and child-like enthusiasm. The rest of bend is following suit as well. The chemistry of this band is off the charts.

The best things about Cory, except for his guitar skills, are how humble he is and how much he thinks about his fans - it's really thoughtful to record every single show! Honestly, I don't know of any musicians I like better than Cory in his age bracket. Maybe not even in the age bracket. One of my heroes!

I have never watched Cory Wong before. I don't think I have every actually laughed out loud so many times during a live performance! The sheer energy and precision of the whole band, who really looked like they were having fun themselves, was nothing short of extraordinary. And what a band! I have been to many, many live gigs and have seen many of the best in all sorts of venues, but with the camera work here, I didn't feel at the gig, I felt I was walking round the stage! And following the band off stage for breaks - brilliant! No sign of any prima-donnas there. For an overall experience, it was literally the best live recording I have ever seen. It just supersedes my former No.1 ("Donny Hathaway - Live) because of the video, but it took 50 years to get there! Cory Wong deserves all the recognition he gets. He just makes people feel good. And to acquire a bass man of such calibre as Sonny Thompson couldn't be better for his funkredentials.

Cory brings a level of band leadership ( and musicianship) not seen since the 30's and 40's., when the charts were ruled by Glenn Miller, Woody Herman, and other big bands. These musicians all virtuosos in their own right, and as a group, they're just a joy to watch and hear. My dream concert now would be Cory and the Wong notes with Snarky Puppy!

@GregLopes 2 года назад

Got to see the show in DC in Feb and it was literally food for my soul! So damn inspiring! Every element of the show was ridiculously good. The whole band is so damn good. The horns were so tight, Sonny and Petar were so damn fun, and Antwaun is absolutely THE MAN and brought the house down. Totally a dream team of musicians. Keep doing what you’re doing, Cory. You’re making the world a happier, more fun place.

Sonny T is pretty much the Godhead of Bass Players, and taught Prince his way around the instrument at an early, formative age. It should come as no surprise that Prince adored him and considered him a good friend his entire life. Also, if someone could bottle Sonny’s laugh, they’d be a rich person. It’s everything 😎
