great tune of fusion funky rock music

I used to really not like Dave W. for exactly what your saying. He has always been more of a technique/drummers drummer.
On the flipside. I have been trying to give him another chance, and I have found some good music he's on, more importantly I'm into his presence more these days. He has gotten better musically....tech. too and I'm starting to like him now. His thing really is the electric jazz, latin styles.....I.M.O.

woww!!

wtf

The band didn't even consist of the same people at the time the album was released. Then: Chick - Keys Eric Marienthal - Sax Mike Miller - Guitar Jimmy Earl - Bass Gary Novak - Drums In this video: Chick - Keys Eric Marienthal - Sax Frank Grambale - Guitar John Pattitucci(?) - Bass Dave Weckl - Drums

Love how Patitucci hit his walking bass @ 2:09 and on... Those guys are AMAZING !
-
Maybe, but listen to the original Gary Novak CTA groove on the Paint the World recording, there's a natural looseness in it.
that Weckl fails to capture here.
-
Here I love how patitucci play the bass!!
-
I don't agree that Weckl is souless - he can put some incredible feeling into the drums. Not only is he very tight, but he seems to 'feel' the grooves and, also, clearly loves drumming.
-
I don't agree that Weckl is bored playing this song...some people say he's a souless technician, but you gotta admit he grooves. And Chick's and Eric's solos more than make up for any supposed lack of enthusiasm
Umm the sax player is Eric Marienthal

This is from the Elektric Band II only album "Paint the World", in which Gambale, Weckl and Patitucci were replaced by Mike Miller, Gary Novak (who also played bass in Dave Weckl's "Heads Up" album) and Jimmy Earl, respectively. ...and C.T.A. is an old original (recorded in 1953 by Miles Davis) by Jimmy Heath (from the Heath brothers). Long live the Elektric Band, but the original one!
