The Chicken" or simply "Chicken" is an instrumental funk tune composed by Pee Wee Ellis that was the B-side to James Brown's 1969 single "The Popcorn". The tune gained greater exposure with versions by Jaco Pastorius. Bravo, Mr. Pastorius!

@@taulitaulington197 You’re welcome Sir.

I've lost count of how many times I've commented "I have a new favorite song!" to one of your videos. Gentlemen...that was amazing. Truly. Flawless and pitch perfect. Thank you all once again. Blessings from Kansas~

Two absolute masters of the guitar with instantly recognizable voices. Thanks Joscho for this classic and for honoring Jaco right! Bravi tutti

Your music is a cure to soul, outstanding talents!

Great rendition. With a tribute and the great bass line, the bass player should get name in the title also.

Was raised on jazz in the 50's, my dad having his own trio. When I picked up the guitar he gave me my first chord book, by Joe Pass. At 70 years young, Joscho S. on KZread is my go-to! Merry Xmas gentlemen, and thank you for all the beautiful music...

Funky! Every time you post a video it inspires me to pick up the guitar and try to be 1/1000th as good as you guys. You've just set me back a few years with this one!

Josho please come to Istanbul. We were so happy to see Maestro Bireli here last week . Now it is your turn😊 You all are amazing. Thank you.

Amazing stuff! You never fail to blow me away with your excellence. The term mediocre isn’t in your vocabulary. Thank you yet again for another great performance! 👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹

Great rendition, Jaco 🙏 would be very proud of all of you!

Как всегда, здорово! Мы тут в далеких странах вас слушаем и учимся)

So very good. And the bass is just killin it also!

Man, I love this tune & your style Joscho. So many wonderful tunes to enjoy, thank you.❤

c’est toujours le pieds d’avoir Bireli en invité ❤ qu’elle classe cette reprise

Love your work so much Joscho, a real genius of music 🙏❤️

Very nice improv anything associated with Jaco Pastorious catches my attention as I’m a old Florida boy just like Jaco born in 51 me 52 both grew up in old Florida those were some nice times and I loved his work in Weather Report Punk Jazz and Havona my favorites man I miss Jaco RIP my man😢

Whenever Joscho and Bireli play together, you KNOW it's going to be very, very special. Pure mastery and artistry. Volker Kamp, the wonderful bass player too.

Those two are really complementary. Joy !

There is nothing beyond perfection. Lose yourself, find yourself.

Ihr drei seid einfach klasse, vielen Dank!

Thank you for the communication, your kind heart! Music has connected us with a thin thread of the Internet across the entire planet!

I would argue the 'funk' mainly came from Brecker on this one, but this tune is one for the ages; Jaco is beyond a legend Thanks for sharing and excellent job!

Amazing! Happy December as well! 👏🎸

God Damn you guys play well together.. Merci a Birelli and thank you Joscho.. Gonna have to take some lessons from you soon.

Phantastic guys! Joscho, again your tone and attack on the electric guitar is improving...fascinating,

Toujours au top pour notre plus grand plaisir, merci les gars pour ces instants réjouissants 🎶💓🎶✨

Superb performance by your brilliant trio! I love it! I recently bought the "Biréli Lagrène play Loulou Gasté" CD at an F.N.A.C. but alas, I can't find any Joscho Stéphan CDs. What a shame!

Some of Joscho's & the Trio themselves are on iTunes/Apple Music, but not all of them unfortunately 😭 They did a version of Cherokee with Mathias Strucken on Piano that I wish that they had recorded & cut for release but they didn't/haven't as of yet. And this one is another one that I wish that they would cut & release

Right? I love those Triplet fills he does every so often!

If you tried to put the nylon strings that this guy plays on a classical or flaminco guitar the bridge would go flying. I know about string tension because I have actually measured it on many strings at many different scale lengths.

Видно, как Бирели получает удовольствие, когда играет ритм

Bombooooooclaart !!! 🤠

😮...🎉❤❤ So good!

Perfection

Great Stuff is going on..

Forteeeeeeeee

❤❤❤ спасибо🙏💕 Привет из Сибири

Is that red guitar mic'd, plugged in....or both? Beautiful sound 🤘🥰🤘

They are great, I think they are the best actually!,

I came here for the lead guitars 'cuz I'm not really a "bass" guy. But geez, this dude's killin' it. 'specially considering it's a standup.
