    After the whole 13 minutes the musucians were just cool and nodding to each other while I the distant listener on the other hand was shouting "fuuuuuuuck yesssss fuck fuuuuuck!!" and was jumping all around my couch outside th terrace, 3 am in the morning, not giving a damn bout them neighbors.

      +Gordon Christopher Tubo I just saw them a couple of weeks ago in Sacramento, and you could say the audience was metaphorically doing the exact same, ha. And yes, KW and band just smiled and nodded. Incredible live group.

    That intro was so beautiful I actually started crying. Bad-ass jam right after too. Kamasi will go down in jazz history.

      +rick - these are the best moments - i recently was at a little local reggae festival - the last band were so damn good and then the sound was so fat and crisp and on the point, i had goosebumps several times - when i looked around i saw a girl dancing and then showing her friend the goosebumps on her arm - craaaazyyy!!!!
      love from germany....

    I never heard of Kamasi until yesterday, but its dawned on me just how big this music is. I LOVED that piano/organ thing around the 5 minute mark, and that bass is just astounding I may be wrong, but it looks like the individual musicians are kind to each other and persistently egging each other on to new levels of creativity. The sound is just beautiful

  • @Baribrotzer
    @Baribrotzer Před 7 lety +33

    One thing I hear: He's going about healing jazz, in a sense, by bridging the divide between its traditionalist past and its fusion/hip-hop-influenced present. Wynton keeps the past alive, but at the cost of insisting that most new developments are crap. Electric Miles asserted the present, but at the cost of letting the past die out. Kamasi draws from both "Kind of Blue" and "Bitches' Brew", and does so with warmth and inclusiveness.

    Kamasi is a big fan of the video game “street fighter “. I feel like the melody of this song was influenced by the music from the character “Sagat’s” stage. Amazing!

      I don't think Kamasi Washington cares about whether he was nominated for a grammy or not. He knows his music is next level and doesn't need to prove it with an artificial lump metal. Good artists don't see awards as the light at the end of the tunnel.
