I've always had so much respect for key players who can do that. Another of my favorite players is a young girl (I think she is 17 or 18 now, I can't remember) called "Domi" and she is un-freaking-believable. She might not be to the level of Cory Henry yet, but she doesn't need to be. Her style is also very different, too. She plays with another kid who is even a year or two younger than she is called "J.D. Beck" and he's already ridiculously good drummer. I highly recommend looking up those two if you haven't already. They just did a set on the "Zildjian Live" series which, by the way, needs to be at the top of your list right now if you haven't been watching them yet. Larnell Lewis did a set on the series last summer and OMG he is a beast. The house band for the series was put together by Sput Searight, who is another prominent Snarky Puppy drummer, and Nate Werth, who is the incredible percussionist for Snarky Puppy.

I am a musician and went to school for music, and have easily seen hundreds of shows. Cory Henry is the most ridiculous musician I have ever seen in my life hands down. I have had transcendent experiences at his show. Not only is his playing out of this world but the energy that he has is next level. I have seen him jump around the stage singing and play organ and keys all night. Every time I see him or take my friends to see him everyone there says "this is the most incredible music I have seen in my life". I once even saw him do a completely improvised mind-blowing set with Isaiah Sharkey on guitar (who played with John Mayer, and Taron Lockett (who played with Prince, Snoop Dog, Willie Nelson etc.) on drums Seriously think Cory Henry could play a watermelon with his ass and make better music than most. Definitely check more of his stuff out and see him live ASAP.

Hooray, another excuse for me to rewatch the lingus video

"this is way beyond my paygrade"...Homie, you didn't even get to the serious part yet!!!

You gotta be kidding me!!! Usually my rabbit holes start with Michael Palmisano videos. Today I find him at the bottom of the hole! Of course he made a video on this!

This set of sessions for "We Like It Here" was the 3rd time in a row that Snarky recorded an album LIVE in a studio (with an audience), previous instances are "Tell Your Friends" and "Ground Up" (great videos of pretty much all of that stuff). They chose to do that because they are first and foremost a LIVE band, this is how they play all the time. OK, it is true that when they do this, they do multiple runs through the material, like might book 4 nights in the studio and do 2 sets each night with the audience, so they do get maybe 8 takes of every tune, and obviously the ones we see in the recording are the best takes, but still. I've seen Snarky play live 8 times over the past few years, and their performances are aways insanely wonderful.

This was so fun. I really wouldn't be surprised if you'd heard him before, but I would LOVE to see you watch Jacob Collier's stuff. He's an absolute musical genius who plays just about every instrument ever made. He has many many must-sees, but his arrangement of the Flintstones theme was one of his first Grammy winners. He has bigger, more mind melting stuff (Moon River, All Night Long) but I think starting with his earlier, more pared down stuff might be nice. The guy's a real treasure, though and I'd love to overload you with other song recommendations if you like him.

good recommendation

They ARE all unicorns. Michael League front bass player) is the band leader and as soon as they arrived at the studio in the Netherlands he walked to the piano and started writing the music. He didn't even remove his backpack. It took him a couple of days to compose and arrange everything (well, I believe he had various written ideas that he brought with him that he started with). As others have written, their original drummer couldn't go with the band due to passport/visa problems and Michael called up Larnell Lewis and asked "can you help us out and take a plane to the Netherlands to record our live session album?" to which Larnell answered "Sure, when do you need me?", thinking a couple of weeks or months.. Michael answered "well... tomorrow?". Larnell had to learn nearly all of the songs on the plane over from a rough demo that Michael had sent. He learned all the rhythms, tempos, signature changes and so on and built his drumming on that. He's a "monster" as a drummer and he's just as humble as he's a virtuoso drummer. Obviously Cory Henry is a master on the keyboard as well. When Shaun Martin listened and looked at what Cory Henry was doing he was just blown away.. and Shaun have 4 grammys (Cory's got 6). That's the level they're at.

I don't listen to the original video anymore because this reaction video is so much more entertaining. His face when cory firsts starts playing the otherworldy chords is priceless and exactly the correct emotion.

My reaction exactly everytime I watch Lingus. Also note that the video producer Colin Benders used to be a known Dutch trumpeteer (Kyteman) and is currently mainly known as a techno composer/producer working with modular synthesizers. The recording is in his studios which used to be a well known pop venue in Utrecht (tivoli Oudegracht). Some info from a Dutchie :)

Cory and Larnell were on a different plane here! Larnell,the drummer,has a YT vid listening to a song once he’s never heard before and perfectly replicating it!

As soon as he said it was above his pay grade and didn’t mind admitting it I subscribed. Watching him work through something I listened too probably literally a million times made me feel like it was my first time

I’m still on the first lesson about the Garcia-style A to B mixolydian runs. It’s phenomenal brother!! You did an amazing job and I can’t wait to dig into it even further!! 🎸🔥

Sweet. Thanks Dale

People who say there isn't real music being made today don't know Snarky Puppy. You were right in saying that was one of the most incredible musical moments to be caught on tape.

We saw snarkey at Red Rocks . They blew us away ,like what planet did they come from ... Outrageous show .

It is so marvelous to see you just listening to them, with stars in the eyes. First time I heard Snarky Puppy, I thought, it would be too hard for me to appreciate, but I couldn't stop listening. They are just magic !

love the fact you took the time for name every member of the band and show ur respect. u have a new subs here.

I wander from video to video of people listening to Cory's solo and smile with them.

The bass player is the director. Great leadership. George Duke and ZAPPA would be interested in this kids solo. Like holy shite! Amazing!

It's cool how your face matches the interest curve of The Solo perfectly.

When you watch Snarky Puppy for the first time, you just sit down, do your best stanky faces and hold your jaw from breaking the floor

Yeah… My brain melted the first time too. We understand everything you’re saying when you’re at a loss for words.

I watch lingus once a month to either make my day or make me weep tears of joy

You know Michael likes the groove when he starts to gyrate 😂

It's like he wants to fly off his Chair the whole time😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Cory Henry and the funk apostles are a fantastic listen, as far as Snarky Puppy you can never go wrong!

My favorite reaction to this now classic song.

This song rocks, but there is another song on this album called 'What about me'. It's filmed in the same way and room and everything. And it's like this song crossed with Jimi Hendrix and there is another guitarist in the band called Bob Lanzetti. And he delivers one of the eeriest and most fascinating guitar solos I have seen in a while. Definitely check it out if you thought this was awesome. Edit: It also has Larnell (the drummer) give one of his most badass performances.

"George Duke Trio "It's On" Live at Java Jazz Festival 2010" This masterpiece blow my mind such as Lingus did.

Yes sir!

You took the words out of my mouth. Everyone there knew they were witnessing one of the most amazing moments in music solos. Perfection! (and they make to look and sound SO easy.....beyond amazing)

I have been putting on that clip several times since I saw and heard it the first time a couple of years ago. It's so incredible and I almost react like you every time I listen to it (maybe more on the inside instead of the outside) but you are very good at showing your feelings on the outside :D *high five* I loved seeing your reaction to one of the best (if not the best) performances I've seen in my life.

11:12 - the moment when he's like..."I'm turning my volume off because Cory has something really important to say right now."

"It probably took them a month to rehearse this and get it this tight" Larnell Lewis strolls off the plane after learning the song on the flight

The sheer authentic awe that I've just witnessed just made me appreciate the original 10x more. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for loving and appreciating music the way you do. Subscribed.

Hahah, I just love the intense bass face and bass body that's induced in you during the first couple of minutes of this. There just ain't no stopping it.

Hey Mike. John Gomm - Passion flower has been mentioned in your comments LOADS. He lives near me in Yorkshire, England. The dude is SICK. Get your acoustic out & ENJOY. Best wishes, Dan, England.

Im on probably 100,000 views in on lingus, Cory’s solo still gives me chills everytime

You should watch the short documentary for "We like it here". Short summary of some very interesting facts: - Most of the band arrived at location on a Thursday and were set to perform the coming Monday. - The music they were set to perform wasn't composed beforehand. They made it while they were there. - Larnell Lewis (Drummer) arrived on the day they were set to perform (Monday). He listened through audio recordings for the songs on the plane ride there and only had 2 hours of practice with the band before performing.

I had seen this several years ago but I have enjoyed watching the reactions of others especially musicians like yourself listening to the music, the arrangement and fantastic musicians. Thanks and continued success with your channel.

Snarky Puppy is the kind of band where as good as you think everyone is, they're better.

Love the channel. If you’re into face-melting solos, The Main Squeeze’s “Have a Cigar” cover of Pink Floyd is absolutely insane.

I suggested it also. Max is a beast.

The look on your face as you attempt to look for an opening to try and jam along is akin to watching a school playground were a child is attempting to jump rope with two friends swinging the rope and you as the jumper looking for the rhythm and never quite finding an opening to jump in. You are the best. 😂😂

Lolll you’re right

This is the best channel! Started out watching you react to songs I knew, and that was really awesome, but now I'm seeing these "ice cold" as well and discovering some amazing musical talents and moments along with everyone. Awesome community, thanks Michael!

The entire "We like it here" is a killer. Spine chill all over.

"it probably took them a month to write this all out" - do you realize that they put those songs together that week, and the drummer learned that song ON THE AIRPLANE over to the session? he'd never played it before on this video IIRC

DUDE. dude.. loved the vid. for real im so ready to watch your vids and become a part of this community

Thise Guys are truly on another level. It's refreshing to see a 'Teacher and Student' of Music appeiciate such combined talent. If you appreciate 'Top Notch' HIGH LEVEL QUALITY Music and Musicians such as this, then you and those reading this deserve something similar in Sound and Composition. The 'World Class' Pat Metheny Group: 'The Way Up LIve'. If you haven't had the privilege and honor to see this, then you're missing out and owe it to yourself to sit back and be wowed, inspired and mesmerized. Happy Holidays and Blessings to you and yours, from the SF Bay Area Ca. Peace
