not to make a big thing about it because i love kennedy to death since his days with bill connors BUT u need to listen to alain caron THEN tell me who is more versatile..its all good..just play is my motto..who's a better drummer..weckl or chambers..WOW
Oh , I have extensively with Uzeb ! Phenomenal bassist , who also turned into teaching ! Uzeb were out of this world & Frank Gambale puts Alain Caron in his top 3 bass players ! ...
Many great bass players out there! Different styles and techniques but all good..from Jeff Berlin to Marcus Miller. Versatility to me is cats like Will Lee and the session players who play everything thrown at them..Janek gwizdala may play fast solos but that's it! Get what I mean...
Kennedy is a virtuoso accompanist and soloist, and does it all with beautiful tone, not to mention gracious humility. He and Anthony Jackson are rare jazz bassists who not only play brilliantly, but always make fretted bass guitars sound as sweet as the upright doghouse that's everyone's reference point.
Before this tour, Mike had to undergo surgery for more than a year after breaking his right hand to shoulder in an accident, I just want to say that he loved music! and worked very very harder to keep playing! and the Sax was 18 at the time.
Always a blast to hear this rocking music. Stern still has fire even after surgery. Bass drums are flawless and the sax player I never heard of held his own and showed he could play. I will look out for more from him
@@honuman39 if you mean drummer your are mistaken...he is one of the best but limited in certain aspects of playing...there are certain artist that would not use him and have not...so yes I had to ask, because surely is not the best...no debating that!
@@kcorpora1 lol any drummer is going to have their strengths and limitations so your argument isn't that valid. At the level he plays at it's mostly down to preference. Of course there's better players for metal, reggae, whatever who are specialists but then the same argument you're using applies to them. He's the smoothest player I've ever heard and his kit always sounds great.
@@kcorpora1 Like every other drummer on the planet. lol There is no best drummer or musician on the planet. EXCEPT Joseph Alessi. He is known as the greatest trombone player in the history of the instrument, coming from Lorin Maazel's people.
Very impressive playing Ye Huang....sir you have just gained a new fan who has not heard of you before this. Such great clean articulation, chops and playing. I just subscribed to your channel. I will be coming to watch more of you.
Both Dave and Tom play at a level from another planet, but both look as if they would rather doing something else. Their delivery is very hard to watch.
Its for listening. You know they’re into it when you listen. Its hard for me to watch guys who make tv faces that aren’t coming from a musical place. It all depends what entertains you.
@@weiminhuang2797 He is amazing. He can hold his own with these pros, and has a great career ahead of him. He obviously doesn't need any stomp boxes! I knew Richard Elliot when he was a kid playing in clubs in the 70's. Besides his sax, he always had his old style Echoplex with him. He was pretty awesome, even back then. We all knew that he would go places. Good luck to this kid!
People have been hating on Dave since the moment Chick hired him. And yet, he's been there for the duration of Chick's career. He seems to have done something right. 🤔
@@ricaard '' HI THERE '' ... I think you have me '' .. wrong .. what I was saying was ... I think Chick knows A GREAT DRUMMER '' when he hears one ! ... DAVE IS Pure Pleasure '' '' .. luv watching & listening ''
@@deannewberry8219 oh no, I got ya, and I agree! I just remember most of my drummer friends and the drum community in general had problems with him. I thought he was perfect for the job at hand. He marked a drastic shift in how groove would be defined in a jazz group, and change is hard. There was a lot of push back.
@@ricaard LENNY was a hard act to follow .... & FOR some drummers .. I think DAVE really might be making them just alittle jealous '' being they were 'nt picked '' .... LOL '' X A ZILLION ''
I hate these guys ... i want to burn my drums when i hear musicianship like this😧.... nah it’s inspiring as fuck, just like seriously ?? how get THAT good ?????? lol much bless to weckl and crew ... gosh damn ....
Great playing, but I have to say that it took a lot of patience to get through the guitar solo/solos at the beginning. Everytime he walked over toward his chair, I thought, ok here we go, and then he would step on another pedal, and he we go again. I persevered and made it through the video and was impressed with the performance despite the guitar overindulgence. Just my opinion of this tune after a first listen.
Mike Stern Band is one of the most boring band ever. I was in Szczecin, Łódź and Opole on concert . Every note are the near the same .... Last year i was on Herbie Hancock live and they were incredible.....
maciek711 but you still watch this anyway, don’t judge dude tell me if you can play better him or it’s just your big mouth yapping all the time on comment
