Probably the greatest female soulful vocalist ever and possibly the greatest jazzy band ever. Awesome combination. Thanks for uploading. Have a blessed day and much love.
Formidabili Randy Crawford, The Crusaders of Jazz con Joe Sample. Li ascolto dal 1981. Avevo 16 anni. Tecnica musicale grandiosa, Joe Sample è un gigante del jazz, un concerto entusiasmante, una perfetta e definita percezione spirituale soul di controllo inarrivabile. Strepitosi!
Musica perfetta, abbinamento voce e testo davvero magico, perfetto. Una canzone come questa esce ogni 100 anni !!!!!!! La esecuzione e bellezza di questo brano è dogma, un principio che si accoglie senza discussione! Capolavoro.
I am a huge fab of the studio recording, particularly Bill Withers' vocal. I was prepared to find Crawford's performance to be a disappointment. BUT...she nailed it. Not by trying to mimic the original, but by doing her. This composition had everything: amazing groove, haunting, somewhat complex harmonies, and, my favorite, lyrics about music and musicians. This performance is a truly extraordinary rendition of a song I thought could never be recorded or performed better. Wow.
@@davidnayir Oh, God, yes. Ray Parker was...mmm, OK. But no one can layer it as subtly as Mr. 335. BTW, any idea who the guitar player is on the You Tube version of the song with Larry Graham on bass? He is a piker.
@@davidnayir OK, it is your fault that I am now obsessed with who played guitar on the original studio version of Soul Shadows. You suggested that it was L Carlton, and yes, suddenly I could hear Mr. 335 on every nuance. But, I did some web research and discovered that Carlton is not listed in the credits for the Rhapsody And Blue album where the tune was first released. Instead the CD listed: Bob Mann, Dean Parks, Philip Upchurch, Sr.*, Roland Bautista as the guitar players on the CD, with no individual credit given for Soul Shadows. This is driving me crazy. (I must have too much time on my hands.) Other than the style, why do you think it was Carlton's work?
This is the first Crusaders track I ever heard, on an LA radio station in 1983. I'd recently come over from England to work on cruiseships and was driving around San Pedro & Long Beach on a port day. Great version with the incomparable randy Crawford!
This is don’t survive…..what a groove, stop and go music ! Perfect singing,playing,arranged, improvisation ! First Class Sound of Instruments and Voices ! Who can better ?! Natur Talents with geniuses brains 🧠 feeling better than the other ones……Don’t stop it please, I will survive…..Greatly!
In my humble opinion the GREATEST BAND, in the history of recorded MUSIC. R.I.P. to the Crusaders who're jammin in Heaven.

But I miss Larry Carlton on the guitar.

Ray Parker’s an excellent studio guitarist. He’s more of A musician than singer .

Клево, конечно! Но не совсем точно гармонически. Все-таки оригинал круче! Там каждую синкопку и нотку наизусть знаешь.
