I wish Michael Brecker and Bob Berg were still alive to take this music into the stratosphere.

I saw Stern and Tom Kennedy a month ago and they confirmed to me that I made the right decision to go into network engineering and play music on the side. Next Level

For the past two days, I have been listening to Mike Stern's guitar. In my humble opinion, he is one of the jass greats on six strings. Thanks for the outstanding contribution.

Dennis !!!! so glad to see him well and fine again!!!! so thankful, the legend of our generation!

Seeing Mike Stern live in less than 2 weeks for the first time!

What a band. 100%pure music. And Mike is such a down to earth, simple, kind human being

Mike singing?? Nice work and I love this album this is from!

What a great band! Already booked a ticket for November 2019 with Mike and Dennis. Two of the greatest musicians around and, of course, I can NEVER miss a single show that features DENNIS CHAMBERS on drums. The groove and control he has is spellbinding. PS I also love that Mike is singing now.

Dennis Chambers did a magnificent job! I love his play!

The band is having really fun and enjoying making music! What a pleasure to watch and listen.

I thought, when younger studying jazz, that Sco and Frisell were a notch above this guy. After 30+ years i now understand what Mike does, where I took inspiration and how he paced it all together, I am now convinced this guy is a genius. J Doe, hear Bird without listening and all he's themes are the same. Mike has a style, liked it or not, and he follows his path, regardless. cheers

Totally. You could call it Jazz Fusion - but it's not really Larry Carlton or Spryo Gyro Jazz fusion. It's Funk and Rock with Jazz chords, progressions and Berklee level music insanity of scales over chords. Would you describe it similarly? It's just got more pocket and bite to sync your teeth into and groove to than some jazz with some of the rock riffs (pentatonic riffs) and doesn't have the cheesy chord progressions of what a lot of fusion (jazz and pop?) has. I got turned on to "Fat Time" on Marcus Miller's SXM show. Mike just kills it and yeah, I've been going after more of Mike since then.

Liked the reference to Jean Pierre in the first tune. Saw him and John Scofield with Miles Davis in 1983. Great show then and am really enjoying this. Thanks.

Wow, new Mike Stern & Co. video. Thanks for uploading this!

Dennis! So happy to see him back to normal!!!!

Beautiful !!! My favorite guitar player with these wonderful musicians. A gift !!!

When Dennis does what is called Metric Modulation it is, "Pure Genius"!

There's something really fascinating about Chambers' technique that I still can't quite put my finger on: When I listen to other technically skilled drummers -- e.g., Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta, Simon Philips, Gavin Harrison -- I often sense that I can "hear" their thought process. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.) But when I hear Dennis Chambers play, *everything* he does, no matter how technically sophisticated, just sounds like he FELT IT. There's seemingly a remarkable lack of pretense or rigorous calculation behind his note placements and subdivisions. I'd love to wrap my head around how he achieves that!

I love the difference between Dennis Chambers and Dave Weckl. Both great, interpretation night&day.

@@het_gele_teken I have seen Stern many times, mostly with Chambers, once with Weckl. Only once with Weckl because the same music has more power and feel with Chambers. I think the interpretation of Stern's music, which is fusion, is delivered more with Chambers. Everything Weckl plays has a Latin/Jazz feel. Chambers delivers the fusion! Weckl's style down plays it, Chambers raises it.

They are just truly outstanding performers, a treat lo listen to. What i like the most about them though is the fun they have and they let it show on stage.

Mike Stern kicks ass , big time !!!

I enjoyed every moment of this concert. Thank you for uploading "THE BAND" 🎼🍅🥬🌶️🎉🛸🌋

II have the good fortune to experience Mike perform on several occasions throughout the years and he was always surrounded by a stellar group of musicians , all virtuoso's in their own right and every show was brilliant, whether on the stage of a larger venue or up close and personal at the 55 Bar in Manhattan where he performs regularly when not on tour. I have watched him perform from only a few feet away and was no less impressed.From what i have seen Mikes shows ranged from brilliant on an average night to transcendent. Mike is also a great band leader because every musician is allowed their time to shine, but always within the larger context of the musical performance. My only complaint about Mike is that he does''t sing more, because the beautiful vocal harmonies that he scat sings along with his playing show he has a great voice.

I've seen this show (in a different venue), I was really surprised by Dennis way of playing. He was so light and jazzy! Even he is great in that style of music, I was surprised, I thought he was more funky / groovy / fussionny... Anyway, great show, thanks for sharing!

Dennis is actually a Jazz musician first! He gets a lot of attention for his next level speed and chops but he started with jazz. He told me that Jazz was the gateway to the other styles.... jazz essentially made the other styles “swing” or bounce in a sense! He definitely has that “bounce” in every context he plays!!! D.C. =Legend

Seen Mike and Dennis live with the Braker Brothers just incredible musicians much respect for these Legendary artists much luv ❤️‍🔥💣☝️👊👏🙌💪👍

Steps ahead is back. I love this. Regards from germany

Great gig.. the one where Mike signed my guitar :-) He still is a great, humbe and funny guy with excellent skills! See you next time, Mike (BTW, thanks for the video, I already wondered when this would be broadcasted.. all those camera's during the gig!)

Always fantastic!!!!

pure music...............

I really wonder why such live concerts are not sold on itunes or play market among regular movies? I cannot be there and pay for the ticket but I would love to pay for the video. Brecker Brothers in Barcelona, Dennis Chabers' instructional video, John Scofield in Poland. I would pay for many videos like these.

Remarkable musicianship!

It really is simple. Invite Dennis to the gig and then ride the wave. The seeming effortlessness with which he does it too...

Dennis is back, tom always on the top. eh Mike ! what time it is ? at 12:22 Masters of the game.

Toll, beste Musik! Mike spielt wunderschön, auch wenn er manchmal böse guckt

ojalá juntos hagan música por siempre!

como evolucionaron estos gigantes!

This tune is always ecstasy level..

'Out of the Blue' is an outstanding opener. Nice gesture from the leader at 12:22 to come to an end.

So I was reading about one of my favorite musicians and a review of a Mike Stern/Yellowjackets show popped up that said Stern had problems with the Lowell George diet (heroin and twinkies) and a tendency to make his solos sound like a slightly happier Tony Iommi. So I had to check him out

Simply divine performance from exceptional musicians. But watching this and clips from other bands including, say, Rush, has me wondering how those drummers that spend so much energy playing their kits get to become so chubby in their mature years? There are lots of examples, I just used Rush because Neil Peart was a universal figure who obviously burnt calories like a volcano on stage and yet managed to gain like 100lbs over his 40-year tenure.... just musing, 😊

Not so bad, that observation. An aging metabolism combined with alcohol and lack of self-control in front of the fridge might lead to this refurbishing of male physique. They only burn their calories behind the drums,that is the point.
