As a south african, I would like to say this song made us go through the difficult times of segregation in our country. I learned to understand that we were similar about how our brothers and sisters went through like us around the world although we were some thousands kilometres apart. Everytime when I listen to this song, it makes me cry.
YES INDEED IT MAKE ME TEAR UP EVERY TIME I HEARE IT, AND It REMIND me of Hugh Masekela FROM SOUTH AFRICA. May they rest.
Absolutely Molefe!
It's still an "anthem" for me.
I've been playing it quite a bit lately, as I ponder on the pain our fallen heroes must feel when they look, from their gravesides, at the happenings in our country of late.
We'll overcome this too.
@@TomMoosZA We shall overcome indeed. Thank you my Brother Tom.
Aweh my Bru
I'm 62 and full out South African
My favorite Joe Sample, Wilton Felder performance. May these brothers Rest in Peace.
Today I'm the lonest and saddest human being when my brother 's time was up my mother used to play most old most old school jazz and Way back home became my refuge and Compas , I could swing my head and everything seemed Alright and when my my mom time was up this song help keep it together. To the Crusaders Family Please accept my Sincere CONDOLENCE TO JOE SAMPLE: R.I.P
The Crusaders produced so many signatures sounds, but this was indeed their anthem. And Joe Sample was at the heart of just about all of it. Rest in peace. Rest in glory.
I second you sir👏🏾💓🎷
This song makes me think about the stories my grandmother used to tell us about Uncle Wilton, Joe, Styx, and Wayne using the car to appear in dive clubs because that was the only place they would perform, and the food they cooked to make sure they weren't hungry because they couldn't eat anywhere either. GOD's peace Joe!
such a masterpiece by the crusaders & Wellton Feldon RIP Joe Sample 🎹 🎵
My dad loved this one miss him so much this is for you dad rest in peace
Dang, teared-up watching this! RIP Joe & Wilton!!!
Just gone New Years Day 2024 and this song takes me back to high school in the early 70s. The nostalgia spectrum from exhilarating to sadness. Absent loves and friends with almost a foreboding of the future. Stay well everyone.
Summer of 1982, Montreaux Jazz Festival. I was with fellow high school musicians, had never heard of the Crusaders. Our band director made it compulsory for us to attend their concert. Before the concert began, we all mocked these “old dudes”, thinking their playing was going to bore us out of our skulls. Wrong! About three bars into the first tune we were all hooked. Amazing, brilliant musicians! We all came back to the States and bought up all the Crusaders records (yes, records) we could find. Gratitude to Wilton Felder, Sticks Hooper & Joe Sample (and the rest).
Excellent
Love this group, have been listening to them since early 70's. Could listen to this one all day.
SO SAD TO HEAR THE PASSING OF MR. JOE SAMPLE. ONE OF THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS OF THE JAZZ CRUSADERS, AND THE CRUSADERS. REST IN PEACE JOE. THE JAZZ CRUSADERS STILL LIVES.
On this 1st day of 2021, I remembered my old old friends with this song. ABs (Ace, Mshi, Te, myself - eFlatini 1984. Our Anthem. I miss those days.
Wilton Felder, seriously smooth sax man. Never gets old. Been loving the Crusaders since late 70's my college days, RIP.
And what a genius bass player too.
Joe Sample was the best! This song brings a tear to my eyes when I hear it. It brings back such good memories of seeing the Crusaders live. RIP Joe, from your biggest fan!
Ditto 💓
This was my grandmother's favorite song by her baby brother
Rest in peace brother Wilton. And "Way Back Home" is my favorite of all the great Crusader's compositions.
+Journey Media Music Salon ouch...haven't choked up this much in awhile...from puberty to social security, he was always there for 'us'...
Old school love it.

RIP Joe this is music at its best
They made great music together---RIP Wilton Felder and Joe Sample
Seen the crusaders about 40 times. They always played is song last at every show. Wilton would always bring down the house with this baby. RIP Joe ,Wayne, and the Texas Twister 🙏.
These bothers were true musicians and some still are... Rest in peace brother Sample!
This song helped to get me thru high school and college. I am forever grateful that God put this song in the hearts of those who created it and shared it with the World. Thank you God. Thank you Joe Sample. Thank Wilton Felder. Thank you Wayne Henderson. Thank you Stix Hooper.
This is beautiful, I teared up listening to this. Am sure alot of people can attach there struggles to this song. I have come way far and going back home.
Late night smoochy moosic, lovely!
All Time Favorite The Crusaders 'We Back Home' Joe Sample & Wilton Felder At There Best!
One of the Dj's once said: 'Once you hear this song, it will play in your ears the whole week' And it does for sure. Its a masterpiece
Yes true you can keep humming it the whole week.
Indeed
It is true
True he was right indeed🎷🎹🎼🎶💓
We need a revitalization of jazz club in South Africa especially for the young talent. Standardbank Joy of Jazz but accessible to the masses. In Soweto, Spruit or Tembisa. Talent unnoticed 🎷🎸🎹🎤
I Love the Jazz Crusaders My favorite jazz band. Rest in Peace Winton Felder and Joe Sample. Saw them a few limes live loved it.
Cruising Crusaders jazz at its best from 1963 still enjoy listening to this song love it.
The end of a great musical group. Rest in Peace. Wilton Fielder
Beautiful song Wilton Felder - RIP. RIP Joe Sample. Just real great music that will play on and on.
These brothers are one of the reasons I love and still play music to this day. The soul music of the Crusaders is deeply rooted in the black experience in America.
pure magic; you can't teach sax playing like that!
RIP Wilton Felder: Co-Founder of the Jazz Crusaders, saxophonist, bassist, and songwriter. He, like Joe Sample, also passed away at age 75, September 27, 2015.
+ron reed just wondering why I am just now hearing of this...? on 10/8?
la classe the crusaders
from Day one discovering 1st Crusade album up to this Day,my favorite group ever.
Darn. I thought I knew music, but I never knew Wilton Felder wrote this wonderful song. I always associated it with Jr. Walker. So glad to be enlightened.
Amazing....
Man this is too much in one song Wilton, Joe, Stix, and Wayne have put together a materful track by the worlds best four piece bands in time. As we journey through life some how some way we will find our way back home
My Dad introduced me to the Jazz Crusaders. I introduced the Crusaders to the next generation in our family and we all have love. Three Generations one family. Thanks so much and RIP Joe, Wilton! Thanks Crusaders!
This has moved me to tears.....
*howling/crying/laughing*
Me too sista.....me too...
LOL! I feel you. I love this song as it reminds me of my father - what an amazing and wonderful man he is who has taught me how to appreciated good music. God bless my dad..
Understand completely. What a loss.
I share the same sentiment
What an incredibly beautiful song. Joe Sample was just an amazing musician as was Wilton Felder and each and every member of The Crusaders.
I could cry listening to this..... OOOOOOHHHH YEEESSSSS, way back home.
I had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Felder who lived next door to a friend of mine growing up in Carson, Ca! A true legend! RIP!
whatta group, Ray Parker and Ready Freddie Washington with the Jazz Crusaders? -- DON'T GET NO BETTER THAN THIS.
I can call Joe sample the king of funk. He can bring another vibe on stage
Rest in Peace Brother...May God Bless you and your loved ones....
I bought 3 King Super 20 Tenors trying to capture this mans incredibly soulful sound, one of these days maybe I'll get it right, R.I.P Wilton Felder.
YOU CAN DO IT IM TRYING TO GET THERE TOO BLESSINGS TO YOU
"MASTERPIECE"

Selbst wenn ich es jetzt höre, bin ich immer noch bewegt! Dieser Klang ist ewig. Vielen Dank fürs Hochladen!✨
One of my favorite jazz compositions ever
Nkosi yam', what a song...!!
It seems and feels like today; always sentimental! Pure good music has no centuries!
LEGENDARY SOUND ... UNBEATABLE

Way back home.......OHHH YES, way back home! THANK YOU J.S.
One quiet master piece
This is Good music that will live on for years
Pure, blissful melody...listen to that instrumental articulation. Authenticity at its best!!
Somethings come back around. Thank you Lord
I'm sad so many that I can't describe, such a group, such music, you can't hear today, and that is music that touches so deeply in the center of the heart and soul, what kind of masters they were, each one individually, their eternal glory.
Great music, I just added Joe Sample to a CD that made to listen to while I was taking that drive to Vegas two weeks ago. His music was very moving
The first jazz group I got to love ! Still love the fusion sound a
RIP, Mr Joe Sample.
fabulous ms kitty kat
Simply the BEST...........
This song has always moved me. I'm sad know that I will never hear this played live and in person.
Absolutely Brilliant Band What Talent Sadly Missed Live Roxy Ablum Pure Class 😃
This song and "Put it Where You Want It" were the first two songs that turned me on to the Crusaders in the early 70's and I still have the albums(back then they were about $5.00 each).
Greatness is eternal. What a great tune!
Absolutely
Oh ya.......Way Back Home!!! Oh ya I feel it..
Way back home.....Rest in peace Joe Sample , Wilton Felder🌷
perfect.
I Luv This Song!!!
LOOOOOVE THIS HIT!!!!! CAN LISTEN ALL DAY LONG!!!!!
Now that's the real deal!!!!
I was a kid, listening to everything, literally, everything. But I was looking for the right one, the one that matches me. And heard the Crusaders music, that was it. And my life is ending slowly but surely. Thanks to them, it was unforgettable.
thanks for the music Wilton x
it would be so much fun to sit in with these guys....
So much soul ... from the very first note
Isteni egy szam !!!!!Es ezeket hallgattam 1969 ben !!!!Hihetetlen !
This song reminds me of my late Mother. Always on Repeat. Thank You for the memories! 🙏🏿
Heavenly!
Semblance of celestial melody...the choir in heaven!
moer! this is eternal. timeless. 😭💚
This song makes me feel free
I keep listening to this over and over. Hadn't heard it for quite a few years. From the 4 minute mark the Tenor solo is amazing. Wilton hits "the note" at about 5 minutes
The first time I attended the Crusaders live was in Moretele in Mamelodi in the late 1990s with Caiphus Semenya, Hugh Masekela and Jonas Gwangwa
The absolute best music ever made. I have spent very little time in the south but I can feel this.
Immensely beautiful!
I simply fell in love with this masterpiece the 1st time I heard . Simply smooth and beautiful to the heart strings
May Joe Sample rest in peace.
fantastic
What I grew up on.
RIP Joe, and Thank you Crusaders. My heartfelt condolences to all who mourn Joe Sample's life. I am grateful to have lived in an era when music was this great, and created by such great musician as Joe Sample, may you rest in Peace.
July 2020 This is a tribute to Our Ancestors! Makes me think of my childhood, going down south in the summer to visit family and all the family members that have gone on to glory.
Gloria Thomas, you're dead right my friend, stay safe.
Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Wilton Felder....
Whoaw!!! May their souls rest in peace. Apostles Poul says " I have run the race and what is left is the price" definately the the jazz Crusaders will receive their price in heaven.
Mr Wilton Felder indeed
I remember that, song, thanks all GOD BLESS ALL. ❤ JOHN
He's playing that Sax like he got caught cheating. I love it!
