Four peoples, seems Eight.

[@Ravivharshanee]

These guys are blessed from above...no question.

Those pre-Gibson Tobias bass guitars were truly a special generation of instruments. And cats like Jimmy Haslip made them sing(bass solo starting at around 1:54). #respect

[@jensclarberg6419]

Dig Jimmy Haslips playing but that bass has terrible tone IMO.

[@caltube]

Wow Will!! One the most controlled stylists out there. To me, the choice of fill and restraint displayed at 5:50 sums up the genius of Will’s drumming. Love it 🙏🏼👾👾👾

You are now rocking with the best!!!!!

quelle classe !!!!!

1993 was about the time I was introduced to Yellowjackets; Jimmy "Flim" Johnson of Flim & the BB's was filling in for Haslip in S. California. For over 30 years, Yellowjackets is still great. Alderson replaced Haslip with new energy many years ago. Check Alderson out; Buy the great album Yellowjackets with WDR Big Band.

You’re correct because I saw the “Jackets” with Jimmy Johnson on bass that year at the now closed for good Celebrity Theater in Anaheim CA. Jimmy put it down that evening especially his solo on this song…a great performance!

[@litopatino]

[@mikeh66]

[@pacmanlp8876]

Epic ending

[@donnytarbert6839]

I'm wondering where the string sounds come from ?

[@ktrethewey]

The Yellowjackets are absolutely NOT a successor to Weather Report. Any jazz connoisseur knows that they have taken the “modern” jazz format to its highest level yet. Some fusion, yes, but which contemporary bands have not?
