This song kept me going through a tough time. Several years ago, my 18 month boy had major health problems that required at least a dozen hospitalizations. Thankfully the brilliant NHS were able to help. There were nights in those months when we didn't sleep. I'd walk into work very early in the cold, crisp air, listening to this to raise my spirits and take every day as it came. Music can heal and give hope. This was a tonic to me during that period. Thanks Dave Grusin. Wishing you well.

NHS killed so many a good man and maimed many more

Love this track makes all your emotions tingle with delight

Dave Grusin is the reason I start listen to Jazz. His music suits well. Now I listen to any jazz, from classic to current.

I start with the Barry White 's Love Unlimited Orchestra. That isn 't jazz but introduces me to this music genre.

They are all killing it! Nice to see Vinnie on drums. RIP Carlos. There will never be another Dave Grusin

This song should be played in everyone's head in the morning when we get up

Ladies & Gentlemans: Mr. Grusin, Mr. Ritenour & Mr. Scott, the MUSIC is served. Thanks guys !!!!!!!

Bravo Mr.Grusin! Love 80's music,and Tootsie soundtrack.

Man …. DAVE GRUSIN 🙏🏽💥🙏🏽 My FAVORITE ❤️ 🙏🏽

I LOVE the bridge that builds at the 3:40 mark. Messrs Scott, Grusin and Ritenour were dialed in!

They seem to be having so much fun that it makes you wanna jump right in!

This music keep running to my head over 20 years .... awesome masterpiece

same with me!

From Tootsie the movie. Beautiful music. (Y) Love it.

I am an Actor and this beautiful recording tugs at my heart string and brings me an inexplicable joy! Thank You...Dave Grusin!

Dave you are forever the greatest pianist 😊

This music is pure joy. It is unique!!

06:50 - this gospel-music inspired part is absolutely gorgeous. Even Lee Ritenour listenes in awe.

For God sake You Tube. Why put an advert in the middle of these great videos. Your taking the pleasure out of listening and watching these legendary musicians. It is also an insult to the musicians who are performing.

My dream song...!♥️

Thank You........ for all of it,,,, it being your music...... few can compare..

This brings both joy and tears Truly amazing

MASTERPIECE

One good link leads to another. The shuffle play miracle that is KZread circa 2019 just sent me this gem from thirty years ago -- unbelievable quality video from mere video tape! Three of the greatest jazz musicians ever to perform live together. Sax giant Tom Scott -- still with us, alive and well. His Wiki entry says in part: "Music director for the 68th Academy Awards in 1996, several Emmy Awards telecasts from 1996 to 2007, Ebony's 50th Birthday Celebration, and the People's Choice Awards telecasts. He has dozens of solo recordings for which he collected thirteen Grammy nominations (three of which he won). He has numerous film and television scoring credits [ ] and appeared on records by the Beach Boys, Blondie ("Rapture"), Grateful Dead, George Harrison, Whitney Houston ("Saving All My Love for You"), Quincy Jones, Carole King, Richard Marx ("Children of the Night"), Paul McCartney, Joni Mitchell, Eddie Money, Olivia Newton-John, Pink Floyd, Helen Reddy, Frank Sinatra, Steely Dan ("Black Cow"), Steppenwolf, Rod Stewart ("Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?") Steely Dan, Aja Tom Scott and Lee Ritenour performing with Dave Grusin -- Dave's Oscar-nominated "An Actor's Life." Really, does it get any better than this? Thanks, Vadim Shinnik.

this make me wish we can live forever in this world and listening to this master peace

The quality of the audio on this old video is incredible - phenomenal mix and fidelity.

I'm from MYANMAR(Burma).Always enjoy this performance no matter how many times I watch it.Thanks to all the great musicians and the audio and video crew as well.

nothing like this thanks God❤

Great track! ;-)

4:26 fantastic~~

I love this music... Thank you 🎹

Brilliant!

Wonderful music played by some of the “greats” on their chosen instruments. Where are the new, up coming musicians? Is it lack of work opportunities, changes in audience tastes OR too many free ‘stages’ (like the Internet) where most things can be accessed F.O.C.

that piano solo video vibe part was just groovin from DG!

Always love Tom Scott’s smoothness.I first fell in love with his smooth style listening to ending of Family Ties every week. Dear Tom, please release the full version of “Without Us”

Fenomenal

Thank you very very much!!! I love this theme since 1982 and I was totally in awe of David's piano variations that weren't on the film's soundtrack

What a trio & supporting cast! Nice, easy fret-touch on the Strat by Lee.

Love!!!!

Music of the Gods. GRP forever. 🙏

A great collaboration!

I only wish I heard this song years ago.

Wow! This seems to be a carefully done restoring. I only know the old vhs tape footage with O.K. sound. This looks much cleaner and above all: it sounds fantastic!!! Thanks for the upload!

Great quality. Shame they cut the synth solo from the end.

♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦

Anyone has a clue of the synth recipe at 0:45 ? Can't reproduce it yet. I don't recognize the model either. Anyway, what an awesome piece of music. I can't find anywhere a book of piano transcriptions of Dave Grusin's best hits, which is a great source of frustration in my life!

Anyone have a lead sheet for this song? Thanks!

Tom Scott is the best

Anyone know who played the synth-keyboard-woodwind instrumentation in this live performance? Larry Williams?

I evidently didn't see the credits or names of players that channel host/owner published. Sorry. What amazes me is that these guys were more popular and more well known in Japan than in their homeland. They didn't tour all that much in the USA back in that era. I saw them several times in Chicago with different players each time. An honor to see Dave Grusin. Amazing man, musician.
