    Just noticed Terrance Martin on horn and keyboards. One of the reasons I love Herbie so much is because he's such a giving spirit to take on the next generation of jazz players and teach them what he knows.That is why the jazz medium is really so beautiful.

      @Proton1 If you consider detroit techno ito be the jazz of electronic music... wait until you check out some more advanced stuff like Zenon Records. That stuff is on another level entirely. Techno is too simplisic and repetitive compared to it.

    Unbelievable performance and quite different from the studio version!!! I was really expecting to hear more flute sounds and especially a flute solo, but the man on saxophone simply nailed it without the flute. They are all such incredible and creative performers. With such a combo, the music is art.

    I had front row seats for the Milwaukee show of this tour. It was ridiculous. The band was super tight, everyone's solos was smokin', and the best part for me was hearing these amazing tunes that I grew up with, and never thought I'd ever hear them live again, played with such energy and passion, and sounding so fresh.

    I am so psyched to see Herbie and co. play this tune live. Actual Proof is one of the greatest compositions of the 1970s fusion/funk era. It is a master class in form and improvisation compressed into one tune. And it has an underlying deeper meaning and message as well - the title "Actual Proof" references the Buddha's flower sermon. Every musically minded person in this country needs to hear this tune and groove out on it.

    • @noahenelow3724

    Herbie is "the DON DADA." James Genus been around a minute BUT this was his coming out performance for the national audience! There's nothing like watching this on wide screen at home...Cats still talk about this show after over a year's time. Brilliance personified... Vinnie's been damn near as hot as Chris "Daddy" Dave on major drum assignments this decade. If you're not down with the West Coast Connection (see: Kamasi Washington, Ronald Bruner, Thundercat), then this is probably Terrance's (sax/keys) coming out party to you and the nation also!

    This is an ok "live" rendition of Actual Proof ... not the best I've seen. Bassist sounds like he didn't do his homework. However, it's still a cover of the masterpiece created by Herbie Hancock and his Headhunters in 1973, which can't be improved upon. The band was comprised of Hancock (keyboards), Bennie Maupin (reeds), Mike Clark (drums), Paul Jackson (bass), and Bill Summers (percussion).
