I'm 58 now. I got to know Dave Grusin's Mountain Dance through my 11 years older brother when I was 13, that's about 45 years ago. I am as thrilled by his music today as I was then. Basically, Dave has accompanied me throughout my life. I thank him for that.
51 years old now, been a fan since my first year in high school at 14 years old and friends used to say I listened to "Old people music" well I'm old now, and it still sounds better than what my kids listen to on the radio.
Sonny is indeed one of Lee's best drummers and he's played with a few, especially the great Carlos Vega, but Sonny makes Lee's decision to drag along his son Wesley as part of the musical tag-team is more about nepotism than musicianship. You can't get any better than Sonny in terms of chops, in the pocket groove, and strong, consistent backbeat. Go listen to recent concerts, hear son Wesley, and then come back to this performance.
My Dear God, if more people would listen and pay attention to this type of music and look at and just watch these great artists think where we could be.
Yes I agree with you rayjr.9187. Just consider that there´s no more option: ! 1. to listen to good music and 2. to listen to trash music. Just people with sensibility is capable to distinguish and to choose the best. And this music from the excellent artists: Lee Ritenour and Dave Grusin, belong to the good music choice. And I would say: Is more than good. Is Celestial music. Congratulations to you for this choice !. I´m a jazz --fan from Mexico City. I love the jazz since 1987 with George Benson with his: Lady from the L.P: Breezin. and Dave Grusin with his. "She could be mine" from the: Out of the Shadows L:P. see you soon ! God bless you.
On June 26, 1934, Dave Grusin, an American jazz composer and pianist, was born. He is also known for composing film scores. He received several awards, among others the Oscar for best score in 1989 for the soundtrack of the film The Milagro Beanfield War (Rebelião em Milagro) by Robert Redford, with the Brazilian Sônia Braga.
One of the best live concerts I have ever watched! The comradery on stage was amazing to see. 4 world class musicians at the top of their game...just freaking fantastic!
Lee and Dave were great but not to forget the great Sonny Emory on the Drums and Melvin Davis who rocked the Bass Solo. Thats a peace of gold we hear here.
Grusin and Rit are 2 of the heavyweights in the industry. These cats have been great forever. I adopted this musical taste from my mother back in Pittsburgh in the early 70's. She is now 75 and we still listen to this style today
Rob Hammond I first heard grp's Raven back in the early 90s and have been a huge fan ever since!!! love the finesse and the raw talent. they get better with age!!l! keep on grooving!!!!!!!
Fred Stuckmann Yeah they do! Sonny, as usual, packs the groove with crystalline clear cymbal work, snappin' snare and boppin' BD bombs all mixed into undeniably emotive phrasing with the band! He tastefully supports everyone else collectively and individually.
I agree of course and therefor am interested in whether anyone has seen Lee perform with his son on drums/percussion? Have chance to see him next week.
The magical combination of all of these phenomenal musicians on one stage = BRAVO, GENTS!!! ❤🎉 I have been in love with LEE & his music since I was teen in the 80’s - AND NO ONE CAN MATCH MELVIN’S BAD AS$$ BASS! ❤❤❤
2019 I think you can call Lee R., the happy jazz guitarist! He is always smiling. Makes you relax. A legend in his own silent way. Can't still believe that he is not rated as one of RS's 100 greatest guitarists; and yet Kurt Cobain is there? Ah anyway. Lee ROCKS JAZZ!
@@bradwhitfield4970 Brad, with all due respect, I don't consider anything in that birdcage paper purpose journal as "mainstream".....lol. They are a highly politicized and spin doctored social media outlet, with an arrogant opinion of themselves, and a condescending attitude toward the art and artists they hold themselves out as knowing and having professional insight on. It is hilarious; plus, they've become nothing but an outlet for radical, leftist, drivel and lies, even worse. Their writers once ridiculed both The Beatles and solo albums of Paul McCartney. They suck-up to artists who have kissed their ass in the past. I love them.
Jim Murphy if maybe that is a comfort for you, don't worry about the fame of a musician, the feelings they experience while doing music are so much stronger than anything that could be gained by huge fame or more money , bithces and drugs :)
Absolutely stunning session of superb modern jazz-funk by the legends that are Dave Grusin & Lee Ritenour as well as the brilliant rhythm-section! Makes life worth living again getting us through Covid 19!
I have Met Sonny Emory on Drums fresh from Gramling State University back in 1984 and he was a Beast then and he is a Total Animal Now. He is one of the Most Underrated Drummers out there. Give this Man his Props Please.
Wow I love Dave Grusin's Mountain Dance. This use to be my favorite tune when I started listening to jazz. It has brought back the good old memories .Thanks Dave you made my night.
Dave Grusin is way beyond Bob James. He's on a level of his own in terms of composing and arranging in all styles of music. Bob James is extremely talented, but rooted in contemporary Jazz, with a few excursions into classical music. Dave Grusin has done it all...and better. They can't be compared.
Dave Grusin. Easily among my favorite musician-composer-performers of all time. Far too under appreciated. One of the all-time greats. Been loving his music for nearly 50 yrs. Still have his Sheffield Labs direct disc vinyls from the early '70s & the later CD releases. Never stop lovin' that sound!
Every day I play it at work, at the computer. What energy and sophistication - I will NEVER get bored :) Thanks and greetings to the Java Jazz Festival Greetings from Poland :)
I have never been that big on keyboard players, but Dave Grusin is the goods. I would love to jam with him. He can solo his ass off, but his real genius is all of the great background stuff he adds to every tune he plays on. Simply amazing vocabulary and feel. A true badass on the keys!
Lee makes it look so easy. Don't be fooled he's a genius I watched him close up at his club concert at Corner Hotel Richmond Victoria Australia maybe 2015. He's both brilliant and humble. I shook his hand after the show and was blown away with his innocence and generosity. Go Lee!!
Aris: I would even add 'humorous' to your list. Lee has a great sense of musical humor on stage, making us wait for a final note to drop and then laughing about it.
Dave, long way since It Takes a Thief theme 💘 Lee and Dave, thank you! Thank you sweet Lord. Love you both. And my Randy 💘 too. Lords 💘 Blessings to all.😇
I will add that the four of them are as tight and musical as always which is so amazing to hear. The dynamics are superb. I kind of regret my previous negative comments as they were based on the first number!
wow.....what a mind blower.....been listening to Dave Grusin since he did the music for the movie The Graduate (1968)...and Lee, since he was a student of Motown and love unlimited orchestra ...(Barry White) .(can you believe he and Rick James were musicians together) lol...shows you how good Rick really was...great music will last forever....
I Love U! Who else wud know or appreciate this post that despite a Musicians downfalls, real life, THEY REALLY HAD TALENT!!. Tks for posting. For some, being an Artist is a Blessing, but a curse. Divided Souls. No Sadness at all

Wow !
Only 4 musicians on the stage making this beautiful music. Incredible
You can say wow again. And again.
The bass player is Melvin Davis ....he plays with many studio musicians since many years. He has a great touch !
Frédéric Jacquet Melvin Davis work with soul r&b singer musician O'Bryan burnette iii back in the 80s and other artist like Chaka Khan
what bass that ge use in Rio Funk ?
@@vivaviva7972 that is a 5 string fender jazz bass or, just as likely, a fender styled guitar from a custom builder.
That’s for sure!!
@@vivaviva7972 cc cccç cc
One of the best live concerts I have ever watched! The comradery on stage was amazing to see. 4 world class musicians at the top of their game...just freaking fantastic!
Just watched Lee and Dave live in HK
I knew Lee Ritenour since my first year in collage.....now I'm 72 years young.....no wonder.....he is a maestro. Since then I became a jazzy dog.....😊
I'm also 72 years old now & the same goes for me, greetz from the Netherlands!
Lee and Dave were great but not to forget the great Sonny Emory on the Drums and Melvin Davis who rocked the Bass Solo.
Thats a peace of gold we hear here.
I think I played a gig with sonny around 1984. he made us sound good
Isn't bass player Nathan East?
ondaride777..hey .. don't forget to watch and listen to 35.27. a couple of fun sections of the mountain dancing tea for two?
ondaride777
What do you mean Lee and Dave were great? They still are great and are very much alive and kicking as well :D!
This is the old school way that "Smooth Jazz" is done. Neo-Classic!
It baffles me how people genuinely have pressed the dislike button. This music is soulful, funky bass and sexy ass Jazz licks.
Dead from the neck up!!
Nice music
Seriously this is master class musicianship
There are trolls for all comment sections.
@@StixH Do you mean the musicians? I would say dead from the neck down, but hey....
Two of the strongest people in the world in jazz music. Lee Ritenour & Dave Grusin
I'm from SOUTH-AFRICA.I also LOVE JAZZZZZZZZZZZZZ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Can I add you on my jazz whatsapp group ❓️😊

Great story pal..... Jus what I want to read !!! ;)
Thank you sir.
Rob Hammond I first heard grp's Raven back in the early 90s and have been a huge fan ever since!!! love the finesse and the raw talent.
they get better with age!!l! keep on grooving!!!!!!!
Likewise I've been listening & loving the music of Dave Grusin since the early '70s. Never ceases to amaze! Truly a legend!
I've liked Grusin & Ritenour for at least 25 years, but Sonny and Melvin make them even better.
and Lee and Dave would agree!
Fred Stuckmann p
Actually, thanks to UA-cam, I just came across the man and WoW!
Fred Stuckmann Yeah they do! Sonny, as usual, packs the groove with crystalline clear cymbal work, snappin' snare and boppin' BD bombs all mixed into undeniably emotive phrasing with the band! He tastefully supports everyone else collectively and individually.
I agree of course and therefor am interested in whether anyone has seen Lee perform with his son on drums/percussion? Have chance to see him next week.
JAZZ FUNK at its finest. Think these days have gone by the wayside, I'm still playing all my Great Vinyl lps by these Great Artists 👍😁🤗🙏
Dave Grusin at 80 paired with Lee R. (again). A true tour-de-force of modern music !
Sonny Emory is a beast on drums!!
total rockstar!!!!
Lee Ritenour to me is one of the best guitarist of all time, love his style. Great performance. One love from Papua New Guinea.
yess
These two are the original dynamic duo! Never stop smiling when I listen to them ...

I never get tired of this concert💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
I play bass. Melvin owns the bass. When you can groove while playing AND sing the line you are world class. What a group of magical musicians.
Melvin L. Davis is a massive player!
I have been a huge Dave Grusin fan ever since Mountain Dance......still a great CD and he has written so much great stuff !!!
Been a huge fan since Sheffield Labs direct-to-disc vinyl in the early '70s. Truly a legend in his own time!
Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Chapter by Chapter / Verse by Verse !!!!!!! Amen
I loved that CD too. That goes back a long way.
The wonder of jazz is that all players get a chance to showcase their talents without losing the beauty of the piece.
Years and of playing and a love of the genre play a huge part in how they make it look effortless, because by then, it is.

just can't wrap my head around that Dave Grusin's 2 months past his 80th bday when he did this gig! is he even human? :)
He is Dave Grusin, period.
Just goes to show that one is never too old to rock. Most early rock and and jazz-rock pioneers are his age now.
Music knows no age.
He has taken very good care of his hands, also probably a dash of luck that he dosen't have crippling arthritis
Sooooooo tight
34 tahun ku untuk dengerin musik itu udah agak milih, sejauh ini, ini yg paling jauh ♥️

It's good seeing Dave Grusin still playing that beautiful sound from his keyboards.
Geweldig, wat een ritme, daarop moet je bewegen. Klasse muzikanten.
@@noekvangiffen Translation = Great, what a rhythm, you have to move on that. Class musicians. I agree! Daar ben ik het mee eens!
And not to forget all the fantastic stuff he's written over the course of 50 plus yrs!
This show is the ultimate demonstration in good musicianship and musical communication between the members.
great stuff--its nice these two jazz giants from the late 1970's still plugging away, better than ever
Dave is so excellent. I’m glad he’s on Lee’s 2021 live dates & hopefully dates for years to come.
I can listen to Mr. Lee's music all day. His brand of smooth jazz is extremely listenable.
The best Jazz music in the city!
Dave Grusin. I loved all of his songs long before I knew who he was. What a special artist. Life is more beautiful with his magic.

First exposure to him was when he was with Earth Wind & Fire
I agree totally man. Listen to him on Lee’s Live in LA Album.
Sonny can lay down the perfect feel for the song at hand, and he can throw in those complex crazy fills but always come back in on the 1. Amazing!

do you take lessons from young folks?
I've been watching this show for 2 years, at least once a week. It is so good.
These Guy's Sound so Great Together Especially with one of My Favorite Drummers On Drums, Mr. Sonny Emory Playing those Yamaha Drums
Charles Franklin Sonny used to play drums for ewf and maze ft Frankie Beverly he's from Atlanta
Just fantastic music put together by a specially gifted set of performeurs, congratulations Yt great work!
Sound of even ! Lee loves music so much that he lets his partners play, and that's so rare these days.
Captain Fingers and Grusin what a treat …..I grew up listening to those Musicians with My Bro...Thanks

Omg the legendary and one and only Dave Grusin still jamming hard! Long live the king!
Its a shame about the sound quality of the piano, it sounds as if the engineer rolled off the bass or had the mics wrongly positioned
It's largely tuning related AFAICT, but yeah, the sound is really bad
