Holy crap... I'm kind of ashamed to admit that I have never heard of Jimmy Herring until tonight. Thanks CZcams recommendations. I think I have a lot of interesting music in my future
There are plenty of guitarists who can play fast. To each their own, but for me Jimmy's combination of blues and jazz in his playing sets him apart from those with similar technical skill. His runs are so unique, I've never heard anyone play like him. And the dude NEVER makes a mistake. I've seen him in concert for 2 hours or more and he never missed a note.
Is this performance/recording available to purchase as an MP3? Couldn’t find on Amazon or ITunes. I still purchase MP3s and make mix CDs for my car. Living my GenX street dream. 😊
Thanks guys. Between you and Tribal Tech you've ruined listening to any other groups. Because no others can compare! ;) Thanks for the post and the HD.
You're like an advanced technique and jazz leaning version of grateful dead set up from the two songs I heard. I bet you could diversify by using more modal music like mahavishnu or Zappa or go through stories using instruments like utilized by Fripp, R with his King Crimson projects. That keyboard player could easily play in the faux pas orchestra styles of ELP, or Gentle Giant or Neon bass guy, add a banjo like bela fleck, or mandolin like string cheese incident, the sonic variety will flower in your fans' mind
The little smug smiles they give each other when they know they just killed a solo or little riff :) and the others just smile back like damn right you just did that!
i'm here to testify that Jimmy has always been amicable and has a kind gentle way about him. he's 1 year younger, went to High School together. in maybe '77 one Thursday i recall i was not playing my guitar, but out partying, and Jimmy was playing the school Talent Show, "Carry On My Wayward Son" it seems i recall. i see him on occasion, last time 2009 Raleigh Jazz Guitar Festival/Raleigh NC (John McClaughlin was also there). anyway always a treat to hear Jimmy, he's one unique guitarist with a feel and heart in his music that provides a wonderful experience.
I'd Like that a hundred times if I could. Has everything I love in a tune: great groove, tight rhythm section, Hammond, great guitar tone, and a couple of twists here and there. Thanks for the video!
This is the highest level of Dad-jazz I've witnessed.

That drummer is incredible
Band is smokin and the drummer is ON FIRE.
Man that's one tight band. Tighter than a billionaire's wallet on thanks giving.

It's like Guthrie Govan's Dad and his best friends just jammin'

OMG....these guys are great! That drummer has a monster left handed roll. Holy cow.
Insane - one of the best solos ever. Go 1M
360 degrees of utter sickness. Everyone is on fire and slave to the groove. Sublime.
This is my first listen to this band . Excellent. Best wishes from Scotland.
