The first time I really was blown away with Harvey Mason playing was when I heard him on Herbie Hancock 1974 album Headhunters, a very amazing album 😎

[@jamesmitchell6925]

At 2:20 after the big glissando from the pianist you can see the stink-eye from the bassist and he clearly says “don’t do that”

[@DeanoPiano]

That sax solo was the shit! don’t know who she is but she knows how to elevate a vibe to another level, well played.

[@CharTheStarMeetsLadyBleak]

Wow Hailey 🙏🙌

[@ChiaraCapuano_chrcapuano]

Harvey Mason...wow!

[@khalo5_yt]

Jetro Da Silva is wild! The amount of energy that this man trasmits through his playing is unbelievable.

[@channelthegetdown8495]

Super Stellar
Best thing I've seen on the tubes in a few weeks

[@biodrummindieseler]

Damn, Steve Harvey can play the drums!

[@kinhosize]

Grande Jetro!!! Brasil sendo muito bem representado!!!

[@wyndhl9465]

The Band kicks all buttocks, and so does Hailey Niswanger whose soprano saxophone leaves no notes untouched.
I am persuaded, by her virtuosic delivery, that Mr. Wayne Shorter is very proud of her.
Sam Newsome will be, too. 'Trane would have been as overjoyed as I am.
Nice performance.

[@hank3339]

YES! sounds like the birth of the Universe to me!

[@BobSchoepenjr]

I once had a handsigned picture by mr Harvey Mason...I lost it 😩sorry. At least I can enjoy this fabulous gig!

[@ianbuxton8332]

1974 actually. Best-selling album in the US that year. Yeah, u guess that unless one is a SERIOUSLY connected jazz player and about same age as Harvey, just about EVERYONE heard this fantastically versatile, and often funkier-than-funky rhythm machine for the first time in hearing the headhunters album. It's no exaggeration to say that that track ALONE changed my life! (For the better, I hope.) Not only that, but if I were allowed JUST ONE TRACK to listen to forevermore on some desert island then it would DEFINITELY be that original album version of Chameleon!!

[@ianbuxton8332]

Bloody hell! Made the same typo! Should of course have read"1973" (!!!)

[@fabriziodelis]
