- +++The WDR BIG BAND CD album "Jackets XL" is nominated for the GRAMMY 2022 in the category "Best large Jazz ensemble album".
With 40 years of stage experience, the Yellowjackets are one of the leading ensembles of "Contemporary Jazz". The quartet was founded by Robben Ford in the late 1970s and since then the Yellowjackets created their own, unmistakable sound, which combines acoustic and electric jazz in a special way. In addition to multiple nominations, the band has twice won the coveted Grammy music prize.
With the CD project "JacketsXL - Yellowjackets & WDR Big Band", the two ensembles once again reaffirm their decades of collaboration. After the release of the video "One Day" here comes the title "Downtown", composed by Russel Ferrante and arranged for the WDR Big Band by chief composer Vince Mendoza. Solos are played by Soli spielen Dane Alderson on E-Bass, Johan Hörlén on Alto Saxophone and Will Kennedy on Drums. Recorded in November 2019 at WDR Studio4, Cologne.

I love me some Jimmy Haslip... but Dane Alderson is a MONSTER! Much love to all the Yellowjackets and all the fantastic musicians in this video!!
Hi OdgeBrown! Thank you very much! Stay healthy!
He sure a monster. Flowing like water. Great phrasing and tone
🙏🙏🙏 Steven!
This is tight as all hell. Nothing like growing up watching this beast and a few other of his band mates make themselves worldwide names.. K, Void, Nu-Jive amongst a few as a weekly school session. The man is a beast
Amazing Dane Alderson on bass !!
Hi KoYounghwan, he is a beast:)

Agreed on every count. AND I believe Vince Mendoza wrote the chart for this one...?
True, Vince Mendoza wrote the arrangement!
That's the best arrangement I heard in months. That bass solo was so smooth. Incredible musicians with the legendary ones. Thank you for that masterpiece.
Thank you for watching us, Hichem!!!
That's killing, always a pleasure to watch Will Kennedy play also!

Truth
Yes. Will Kennedy's cymbal work is second to none.
So, written by Russell and Vince. Do you think they wrote all the instrumentation?
Thanks

Here we are again: the Yellowjackets and the WDR Big Band have returned to Earth from their home planet to grace us with their music.
The musicianship is, indeed, otherworldly!
Thank you for your kind words, Daniel!
Amazing passion and those rhythm figures are a rush! As a guitar composer/performer for book trailers about comics influenced by Jazz and seeking inspiration, I love those horn harmonies and everyone's musicianship in staying together and being so lively. Many cheers!

Thanx, Marcus!
Superb. Beautiful arranging and great musicianship.
Hi Mat! Thank you very much!
It seems Leopold Stokowski, conducting the Cologne Symphony Orchestra, said: "God, it's impossible to play so accurately" ... Bravo WDR BB, Bravo Yellowjackets, great Ferrante, Kennedy, unknown STAR Alderson and Great Principal Conductor Bob Mintzer. BRAVO.
Hi Givi! Thank you for your kind words! From where are you watching us?

Greate contemporary jazz music !
Hi Tozzi戸塚, thanx for watching. Do you know already this one: czcams.com/video/vfZttpqsy68/video.html
Loved the guitarist.
Have to admit I heard this for the first time a few weeks ago on my local NPR station on a locally produced program. I cranked this up all the way home, and sat in my car when I arrived home so I could hear the end of it. WOW. Incredible piece. Each musician an integral part of everything that's happening. This is world class stuff! You guys are awesome and I really enjoyed hearing you play. Thanks for a superbly great performance!
Thank you for your kind words, Voice! Feel free to listen to more stuff on our channel:)
A bass player who can solo! It flows like a horn player.
Great chart. Great band. What’s not to like?
Hi Jok! Thank you! It was a great production with the Yellowjackets and our chief conductor Bob Mintzer!
Looking forward to Yellowjackets concert in Manchester in July. These cats are on it !

👍Hermès!
Congratulation! Fantastic band!
Hi Joseph! Thanks!
Holy moly!
Hi Mike! 👍🙏🙏🙏
Just killing as usual!!!
Great sound quality and ..... finally ... the horns that come out with all their power without being overly compressed as it almost always happens .... as far as the artists are concerned, any comment would be superfluous!
I've listened to this version close to a dozen times and I'm always captivated by the writing and arranging (thanks Bob!), the solos, and the band's energy and outstanding execution. 👏🏼🔥💖
Hi Jason! Thanx for your kind words!
Brilliant!!! Thanks for more magic!!!
Hi Brian, thank you for watching again!
The "chops" on the bass! Hey Yeah!
I am hooked on this band!
Hi LaMont! Wow that is nice! Welcome to our channel!

🙏🙏🙏
Dane's solo FLOWED!
Thanx, James!
AWESOME!!!!!!
Hi Todd! Thanx!
I keep coming back ... this is epic.
Hi Gussy, where have you been all the time? We did read anything from you for a long time....
6:17 Nice... Wim Both is underrated. He is one of the best lead trumpeter in the world, as far as I know, who has never failed in his role at Wdr Big Band. Remembering the lead trumpet part of the Wdr Big Band I heard, it has never been easy play. He never failed to play a performance that he would have struggled with if it were someone else. He is the best. I think he is the ensemble itself, which is neither prominent nor lacking in presence in the ensemble. If there is any hidden hero in the Wdr Big Band, He is.
🙏
Thanks for this wonderful music.
Hi ettore, you are welcome! Thank you for watching!
Beautiful Bass solo, talented bass player
