  • “The Chicken” - We bassists all love playing this song by Pee Wee Ellis, made famous by Jaco. I had a chance to play it with the Buddy Rich Big Band, at a memorial concert. I was nervous, but had fun. Drummer Tommy Igoe is on fire, and Roger Rosenberg plays a KILLER bari sax solo! #thisboyslife

    Will never tire of this tune. Always a toe tapper. A joy to play too.

    Bloody hell!
    I love how Will Lee is not trying to do Jaco at all but just grooving his ass off

    Don’t know if anyone has made drumming look more effortless then Tommy

      Where does this fat, snappy and ass kicking sound from with whom he leads an entire big band? Amazing! 🎉

    I might have already mentioned how much I adore Will Lee both as a Bass player and as a musician. But Holly sh***! Tommy Igoe is a Monster: so much drive, attack, groove PLUS leading a big band - that's pretty insane.

    This is by far my favorite rendition of this tune.

      Same here. Even better than the Jaco big band version.

    Man, you really do know how to sweep with the thunderbrom! Since it was a memorial concert I was wondering if, in Buddy's memory, the drummer fired the band after the show.😉😂

    Very tasty and super funky playing by all! Yes, I do love playing this song on bass as well. I'm totally digging your very slinky rubber bandy tone on this one Mr. Lee!

    One of the most accomplished bass players ever getting “nervous”. Thanks for sharing. The tone on your bass and the whole performance is off the hook. That’s an infectious groove.

    Saw the "Jaco Pastorius Big Band" do this with David Carswell on bass in Hollywood FL many years ago....kind of a tribute concert. Equally Fabulous. His Jaco's SON walked in late and sat next to me. Kind of spooky because he looks so much like his Dad........

    I don't much like resorting to superlatives, but I listen to a lot of bass players, and structurally and melodically, this is one of the greatest bass solos I've ever heard.

    Tommy Igoe fantastic. But... With a bassist like this, a drummer has zero effort. The first time I saw Will play was in a club in Los Angeles in 1980 with Spyro Gyra. I was blown away by its fantastic groove. I Love You
