So cool I had to get my down jacket on.. (it’s summertime now)

[@Drumminman4U]

Today, jazz is rarely this good. I'm mean WOW! Every player here is first rate. Love it! They know swing intimately.

[@MorrisArena]

That sax solo was the bomb! I know this video is three years old, but Masae really showed vibes during those choruses

[@vonbaronmusicvideos]

Thanks for watching! Yeah she’s a pretty special player. My favorite singer in Japan too.

[@MostlyIC]

Wow, love how that sax bends notes, she's great !!!

[@adrolfe]

Brilliant - just loved the piano solo. Spare. Great build

[@vonbaronmusicvideos]

Thanks for watching. Phil Strange is a real team player. Thinks in phrases and leaves space for others.

Thanks John!

[@raymondcarr5464]

I agree. This brught out the bluesy quality of the song for me. The sax... wow! This is one helluva groove, and she walked off like Monk, lol.
