[Mentagasm]

Wow...thanks for this, i must have been under a rock, cause i didn't even know that Zawinal had passed...This must have blew you mind to be in this kind of company...and i am sure that you have been in more company than this but man, McFerrin & Zawinal? Dang!!!! It certainly would have blown mine.

[Rodgebi]

@Mentagasm Yeah it's kind of werid to not know that Joe Zawinul past away, terrible lost...

Anyway, yes it was a real pleasure to share the stage with those giant, it was a great evening. Thanks for your message Mentagasm, I wish you all the best.

[Rodgebi]

[Beuma]

Just Great!! It makes my mind feel better.

Is the melody that Mcferrin sings between 3:28 - 3:38 spontaneous or is it part of the song??? I can't stop listening to that, it's wonderful.

[Rodgebi]

@Beuma thanks fpr your message, it's really great if this short clip of music makes your mind feel better.

Mr McFerrin is just a genius, all improvisation here, huge sens of the melody, respect.

Thanks mec, peace.

[joncoltrain]

ok i posted the playing of this bass player before i saw his solo now all i can say is jaco pasorious is so much better than any other electric bassist never confuse speed or technical ability with real genius jacos riffs were so much more soulful and raw but this is still great dont get me wrong

[Rodgebi]

Hello Joncoltrain, thanks for checking out my video, but I don't need people comparing art, we have different sensibilities as different we are, so Jaco (RIP) did his thing, and Linley (bass player on this clip) does his thing him too end of story, of course to each his own but not need to compare, thanks.

Peace.

[joncoltrain]

that bass playing is much more solid than the guy from the last group to play with zawinul he has a much thicker sound..fills in his space way better

[seblans]

houlalaaaaaaaaaa quel plaisir de tomber là dessus : j'étais dans le public !!Quel concert, quelle énergie de votre part à tous ! je me rappelle que devant on a fini le concert debout sur les chaises. C'était ma premiere fois à marciac et franchement (je suis bassiste à bordeaux)j'en ai pris une énooorme dans la face. Merci pour ce beau souvenir. RIP Joe

[baassiecool]

I'm speechless!!!

[Rodgebi]

Thanks for taking time to check out this video Baassiecool, cheers.
