Muthspiel & Blade - FRIENDLY TRAVELERS LIVE

[littledrummer16]

anyone know the snare brian is using?????

[danielprietog]

Sometimes it sound like if the mid-eighties Pat Metheny Group was washed down to the very essentials.

[goldensleeves]

Amazing how good this sounds... even at 240p. I wish it was uploaded in a higher audio quality. The music is very good

[TheAndy2408]

Brian Blade is amazing! He's always smiling!

[SammyWamii]

What guitar does he use in the beginning?

Looks kinda like the Yamaha Silent Guitars, but with the headstock on the other side

[daschwarjazz]

@SammyWamii It's a Frame Works guitar. Ralph Towner also uses one.

[adnb77]

Barely have the words to comment ..this is just wonderful!

[vegetarian1812]

DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME

[videoyamaken]

ひやー、すばらしいです。

[saleens7austin]

just the right blend of jazz groove, rock guitar tone, and overarching good vibes. Wow.

[BJrok]

That nerdy black guy has a really nice drum tone. Dry and thick with least amount of that irritating snarish(?) sound. Love it.

[et7waage1]

Beautifully played!

[neilraoufsw]

wolfnag is creating progression

[ReminiscenceHr]

I've been rewinding the video for 50th time now just to see the smile on Blade's face when Wolfi hits those notes. This is music. This is what all musicians strive for. LIFE.

[tricianne1]

5:33. Church.

[whirlawaysteven]

mr blade, could i please have just 1/250 of your ability and feel??

[micekpeter]

suhlasiim najpopici precitene jak som vobec prezil

[Carlamusiclover]

Beautiful

[johnielsen08]

Awesome song.  Absolutely incredible drumming. Holy cow. I'm a guitar playing and the guitar here is also tremendous but those drums blew my mind.

[Carlamusiclover]

Beautiful!

4 people haven't liked this?! Are you serious?!

[baconroxmysox]

sick!

[admiralevan]

amazing song!

[epasurr]

i feel like this was in someway an inspiration for Highway Rider, the ambience is very similar. this is so inspired

[unclejunglebass]

@epasurr yeah dude. this sounds a lot like "john boy."

[santilasd]

what i love about blade is that he is so melodic with the drums and as curiousgabe17 said every note make sense! and muthspiel knows whats he does! its amaizing the connection they have!!!

[CuriousGabe17]

Brian Blade plays a lot of stuff in this video... but... It all makes sense! Every note he plays has a purpose and is so tasty. Viva la Blade!

[zootalluresmdp]

hijos de putaaaaa !!!! : )

[SuperOberton]

Kann ja auch singen der mann, nein im ernst,

total feiner sound und das in guter qualität, was man ja leider nicht immer hat

[xpjazz]

amazing

[klettermax88]

That was one of the best performances I've seen, ever! Hope I could see them live sometime!

[mrcndrn]

Love it, and hate it. I'm a bass player...

[tonpulsar]

These two are amazing musicians, no need to compare them to anybody, they have their own unique way of expressing through their art.

[teddypantelas]

What else can be said but great music.

[joegridl]

Also ich könnte nur wiederholen, was der letzt geschrieben hat... Wahnsinn Herr Muthspiel! Excellent Mr. Blade!!!

[bytedildo]

now this performance blew me off ..it totally paralized me, I can't move, I can only listen.

[Dvareckas]

original jazz compose!!! +5

[culpritto]

second part sounds first-circle-ish (pat metheny) esp. with the vocal part thing

[bytedildo]

@culpritto yes, metheney had some influence on him cause he was his teacher in Boston.

[boplicity18]

i don't think he was.

[manuroza]

It's just AMAZING !!!! The life is here.... Thanks a lot Mr Blade & Mr Muthspiel......

[michaeldalgas]

Brian Blade is the badest!!

[Poparad]

[willie33040]

Ah this is beautiful. This has got to sound so beautiful with a good pair of headphones. I'm using my built in computer speakers (Gateway Laptop) Headphones or better speakers on my laptop would make this tune sound so delicious! Thanks for posting this cool vid. Wolfgang and Brian are awesome.

( ^ _ ^ )

[ReminiscenceHr]

where can this commercial release be bought and is it a commercial release at all?

[emgcarra]

Excvellent.....!!!!

[DaviPentax]

Brian ti voglio bene!!

[TOPRALE]

they re having so mutch fun!!! Amazing!!!

[perromayer]

dude stop looking at gear just listen!the pedals dont matter really.. dont do that

[giuseppepitarella]

Che viaggio.... Grandi!

[WesMetheny]

That was one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

[jazzperc2]

I absolutely love these recordings. Must have the DVD. Brian Blade approaches the drumset with such conviction. Breathtaking.

[JustinPoon93]

Does anybody know if the mallet on his kick was part of the pedal or if it was added on?

[jononot]

most likely an add on.

i've been meaning to get one for a while.

[Guitarsoundfreak]

What a beautiful music!

[groovemanx]

Man Blade is Killin! One of the most musical drummer around.

[donkeyblues]

If not "THE"

[lou2cv]

Look how much they are enjoying themselves, it is priceless !

[ciquel]

beautiful!!

[renato2u]

Any one knows which looping pedal is W. using?

[trappedsoul7]

yeah, it's the one from BOSS

[calicoolboy]

i checked...it is the digitech dual pedal one...there is a clear shot of it on one of the other videos. cheers.

[trappedsoul7]

well, i am sure he used to boss rc20 at a live show, because i've seen it with my own eyes. maybe he also uses a digitech, but i know for sure he uses the boss rc20.

[calicoolboy]

He probably upgraded...check the "between the beats" video with blade...that's the one where he is using the digitech (it's blue). the boss one is better anyway.

[Guitarsoundfreak]

Guys, Wolfgang is using LEXICON JAMMAN.

I have one for sale, cause i dont use it anymore...

[j4zzSukcsfu]

you can put in his ass ;D

[calicoolboy]

it looked like the digitech one actually

[JacobEvans90]

its the lexicon vortex. google it. my dad has the rackmount.

[julianurabl]

1 digitech jamman, 1 lexicon jamman, boss rc-20 sometimes (but not at that tune)

[julianurabl]

hm should have been a reply on the looping discussion..

[kevinm4435]

profound

[marquesbill]

there´s nothing like what I fell now - divine grace almost describes my soft and well-being felling.

[mrgone78]

this has got to be the greatest music in the world right now

[gslee80]

죽인다

[keepjammin36]

This is new territory, is it not? Great stuff.

[badders31]

Absolute GENIUS the pair of them!! Thanks so much for posting the vid. What an inspiration!!!

[stalliec]

WOW. Brian is the perfect example of a musical drummer, making every single note count to enhance the music. Thanks for posting. Beautiful!

[organic19]

great!!!

it's so beautiful!!!

[anwardrum]

Brian Blade is the man, if u didn't know already.

[grijazz]

Brian Blade is the best jazz drummer in the world!!

[CuriousGabe17]

@grijazz Brian Blade is the best drummer in the world!! *

[arielinver]

@grijazz

Brian Blade is the best drummer in the world!!



[moefuerst]

i was lucky enough to be on that concert @ the MQ, vienna when this was recorded.

this is my very favourite song of wolfgangs work and a truly inspiration to keep on playing...

awesome!

[julianurabl]

ah, urs too? :>

[keepjammin36]

This song was a landscape. Nicely done! Remniscent of Pat Metheny, but original.

[julianurabl]

metheny..? lol..

[moefuerst]

bei dem video hört man den "cheat" ;)

[julianurabl]

macht er aber nur im duo; das motiv is ja eig nicht schwer zu spielen, aber dass der kurze loop so perfekt sitzt ist nicht einfach.

solo spiel ich den auch immer live ein, aber wenn man mit nem drummer spielt is die gefahr einfach zu groß, dass man später den loop verliert (ich glaube leute die ihn nicht selbst bedienen haben so ihre probleme damit ;), vorallem wenn man zu enthusiastisch spielt und es laut wird.

[bradley1107]

apparently you are not very familiar with the music of the pat metheny group...

[kathenaii6]

WONDERFUUUUUL

[losi2404]

This is just wonderful. Wolfgang is a master musician and guitar player. the same league as metheny, scofield, frisell...

[YongaSun]

Oh this is so beautiful! I love their CD. Unfortunately I missed the tour.. :-(

Great to hear that a DVD is being released!!

[mrgone78]

just amazing.

[RSD911]

Amazing !!!
