- Here's a clip of Gerald Albright, Eric Darius, Gianni Vancini & Randal Clark performing at the Cannonball Special event @ Spaghettini Grill & Jazz Club in Seal Beach CA 1/25/13. Enjoy and "Stay Smooooth". smoothjazzfamily
All 4 guys are amazing, although Gerald Albright is clearly more superior.
I don't see how Eric moves so much and lifts his fingers so far up off the keys and still plays so articulate, fast, and clean. Hey, whatever. It's workin'!!!
This is one the best platforms where people enjoy everything from music education and the word of God thanks to You tube.
That's what I'm talking about... I just listened to the original version with David Sanborn and Bob James. Have Mercy.... give me more and more of Maputo. Whoa! Just felt a chill.. Break it Down...Good Morning America
remembering one of my favorite smooth & cool Jazz
Gerald Albright the Master!!
I will never forget the first time I ever met a bunch of these amazing dudes: Gerald Albright, Norman Brown, Richard Elliott, Joe Butler, Tim Bowman. It was "Summer Storm" in Phoenix. I cant explain the feeling. Man, it was amazing just hanging around these guys. Then met some of them again at Zuzu in Scottsdale that same evening. That just crowned the whole event. I will never forget that day. Amazing, amazing
amazing
O som do Gerald Albright é incomparável..!!
None are slouches...but Eric and Gerald are by far two of the contemporary greats. Wasn't familiar with Randal but really like his style.
É impressionante como toca o Gerald Albright...
Very nice concurrence with the synopsis, Jason. Good bless!
BRAVO!!! Luv it!!
so good!!!
Out of this world... G.. Albright.. .
You all talk about the 4 saxophonists, all are great of course.. but the one leading the show is the bass who managed to make it better than the original.. unbelievable!
Não tem coisa melhor que ouvir boa música de manhã cedo!
drummer" loving his groove
Very nice. Greetings from brazil
Maravilloso
Gosh they take you to the moon and back.
OMG..... BRAVO.......!
Looks like a great time on a great tune, celebrating the independence of the nation of Mozambique.
Simplesmente Show
This was mostly a private event but they released a very limited amount of tickets to the public.

Albright, the Charlie Parker of Smooth :-)
Damn Gerald!!!
every solo was great but the two that stood out to me was Eric and Gerald
Smoooooovvve!
A minha predileta.
Omg this is so good, where can I get a CD?
The second of the two soloists has a lot of Jazz vocabulary in his hands.Gerald is able to tell his story in a logical, coherent and progressive manner.Eric is definitely a student of Gerald who is determined to show the former (Eric) that he (Gerald) is the boss, the director and professor of this session. Eric appears to be anxious, hoping to prove a point. The first soloist is cool, calm and collective, wanting to play by the pre-planned rules. Together, an excellent performance .
The Crusader does a nice take of this with Wilton Felder Sitting in the tenor saxophone chair.
Excellent synopsis...I witnessed the very same tendencies while observing each of the solos. Gerald is a graceful teacher and very patient in his storyline...clear and concise.
+wyndhl eodumegwu This is a Crusader's tune. That is the original.
+Rod Allen Thanks, Rod.
Actually, I have Wilton Felder's great performance of it.
Do you recall David Sanborn's take on it?
What a simply beautiful tune!
of course! While I do love David Sanborn's version I, being a tenor sax player, prefer the original with Wilton.
7:36 - 7:42 It's great !
Awesome rendition of the Crusader's tune....
Actually it was originally done by Bob James and David Sanborn on the iconic Double Visions project. Marcus Miller wrote the tune and later produced the Crusaders project healing the wounds where they did a cover. Their version is incredible too! Marcus Miller played on both versions.
thanks for sharing all of these! I wish I could have been there. Was this a private event?
Daryl Williams is killin' it on that SB5000.
Nobody knows what that is but it’s the best carvin bass ever made that was discontinued after only two years. I have one and recognized the look and sound immediately. They hit a home run with that bass and you don’t see too many around. The only problem was they made it with separate volume controls for each pickup and I had it modified to have a blend knob and a master volume, much better solution in my opinion.
Hi - very nice performance and excellent capture. Was this recorded with the Zoom Q2HD?
Yes, this video was recorded using the Zoom Q2HD. I LOVE it!
"Gerald "gave us the bebop Charley Parker version. of Mabuto.
tribute to Sanborn? awesome
Gerald is IN-sane! Maybe a stupid question but is he playing an alto?
Albright and Darius shine... Not even sure who the other two are...
Darius got skills but to enclud on the other comments.. he's just young and needs to control his anxiety..
The guy with the glasses has the closest sound to Mr. Sanborn. I love the variations on this song though. David would be proud. Does anyone know what the word Maputo means? It sounds like a Latin swear word, if I'm honest.
+supercooled Maputo is the capital of the state of Mozambique. As far as I remember, the song has been written by Marcus Miller. In addition to David Sanborn version, there is another one by the Crusaders, with the late Wilton Felder (RIP) on tenor sax
+Jean Claude Bossonney Mozambique is my country here in Africa , I play alto sax in a national jazz festival morejazz big band. Albright is my fav
+kelton massinga Glad to get acointed with you. If you ever come to France or Switzerland, let me know, I would be glad to meet you. I am leaving 60 km from Montreux (luxury jazzfest)
This is nice, but please go listen to the Crusaders do this tune.......!
Yeah that opening with Joe Sample is badass!!!!
Great version but "Nobody"... Does it better than David Sanborn and Bob James!!!
Gerald não é dessa classe ! Afs
This is the shit
It feels like everybody was trying show off to the others on stage, like they each had something to prove. It’s too bad, because getting four of these guys on the same stage is tough to do, and it could have been a great musical experience for performers and the audience. Instead it turned into a non-musical pissing contest of who could play highest, fastest, and pull off the most licks before their solo was up. Such a shame.
Eric would play cleaner if his fingers were closer to the keys.
Sanborn does it better.
Eric plays way too hard he needs to lay back alittle justa bit for my Saxaphone taste
Darius got skills but to enclud on the other comments.. he's just young and needs to control his anxiety..
