Just for the records: the team is Herbie Hancock on keyboards, Pat Metheny on guitar, Jack De Johnette on drums, Dave Holland on bass. One (short) step behind God(s).
really amazing, i think i heard this version at least 1000 times now and i can't get enough of it. I also like Herbie being so authentic when he is playing this. When he does a mistake, he does not try to hide it or "overplay" it, he just stops and starts with a new idea :D So for example at 2:30 he kinda loses his idea or what he wanted to play, so he stops and he just really looks like he was thinking "ah damn" :D And his face when playing some scales or other lines is unique :D
A tune played by the gods of music,,,,,,. The strong beat and amazing solos completely knocks me down. This is a music of the highest quality no doubt I think.
You learn for several years and you kind of think like you can play an instrument. Then you listen to this, and you think again...amazing as is, period. A real motivation to just keep trying, learning, doing your stuff. One might one day be able to play like one of 'em...
I'm young at heart but not really young and has been following New talents and there are plenty of them but has to come back to my original love this kind of music with all the legends playing here.I hope this kind of music is not lost in this generation!Thank you Herbie Hancock and Pat Metheny and watch this new kid Jacob Collier .
Herbie Hancock.....genius of the jazz piano.....Pat Metheney's amazing guitar too......incredible music and an incredible version - probably the finest.
This is such a MONSTER Set I am embarrassed to say I do not recognize the bass player ... And I believe this is Pat Matheny (guitar).... And being an old deaf drummer I totally recognize Mnsr DeJohnette on drums !! Such a magnificent Set here!
+Dennis Jump No need to feel embarrassed man, half the time no one knows who the bass players are! Dave Holland. Steady as a rock. Never seen such a cool looking bass player. The subtle smiles he's giving Herbie during his solo LOL Legendary bass player
@DennisJump youre so welcome man. hit me up on my channel if you wanna talk some jazz drums/music. my heroes are Blakey and Elvin, so if you got any stories to share, please do!!
Best jazz fusion ever...I am amazed with every individual here, how good they are. Ten years ago I would've say no way that one person can improvise like this, because this must be prepared, Pat must practiced years for this moment, but today i know that some persons are just to god and they can play what ever they want on instrument, yeah he certainly practiced years&years, but this moment was pure improvisation, and it was perfect. I guess you can say it's just god given gift or else, something like power to momentary transfer imagination into instrument.
+Lori Spain-Morgan "The Guitar Player, Plays & Sounds Like George Benson " Sorry, but no. The guitarist plays like Pat Matheney 'cause that's who he is. A jazz fusion original. Jeez
Andrew Bugbee I'm Not Saying Anything Negative About Herbie Hancock Performance I Enjoyed This & Only Stated What I Felt & Heard This Was An Excellent Performance To Watch & Enjoy I Stated What I Felt & Heard With The Guitar I Don't Debate What Others Say They Have Their Opinion & I Have Mine This Isn't The First Time I've Listened To Mr. Hancock.
Your incomprehension and appreciation of jazz is understandable. Jazz is liberation for people who can feel it. I hope you'll be able to feel it someday.
Relax,laid back,feet up,glass of good old red one,cigarete,puuuure joy^^ Thats My understanding of Easy-listening baby......Just Great musicians,every single one of em,a master of its own class/maybe thats why some of us with REAL good Taste of music are soooo Rare....U have to apriciate and honour those mindblowing talents..thx ;))
Good god damn, does Herbie show complete mastery here, and then Pat Metheny drives in with genius talent. Not to diminish the contributions on drums and bass by famous folks that you all in the audience MUST learn about.
Dan-yell carpenter or J.S. Bach. I actually think that they would perceive the actual harmonic richness and colorfulness of this music quite positively and appreciate it.
I think they wouldn’t like it because the people that were born before Jazz often didn’t like jazz because it was so different. Just like parents today don’t like the music their children listen to, although I totally agree with them.
INCREDIBLE!!! This is true and pure musicianship in a nut shell, i always said that music died along with its musicians in the late seventies, my friends had enough of me saying this long time ago. This proves me wrong in some way, RON CARTER is the best ever bass player regarding JAZZ period! To hear someone well into this new century just have a bit of RON's exceptionell timing and feel for the JAZZ is just INCREDIBLE!
My goodness gracious Herbie is rippin' it up! This song is a timeless classic for the all-time great jazz compositions. So deceptively simple in its form until someone like Mr. Hancock and his crew take it to the moon and back. Keep it up!
Oh wow, I accidentally stumbled upon the concert one of my professors was referring to during a class, in which Pat Metheny and Herbie Hancock play together XD Wasn't even looking for it on purpose.
This is one of THEE coolest renditions of Herbie's hit "Cantelope Island" I've ever heard (and there are A LOT of them)! Herbie's solo is, as Buddy Guy says, "So funky, I can smell it!" Pat Metheny graces us with his presence on guitar. You may recognize the "head", the beginning part of the song, from "Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)" by US3. ua-cam.com/video/JwBjhBL9G6U/v-deo.html
Please don't flame me for my ignorance, I'm just getting into jazz. Who is the guitarist and WHAT is that he's playing??? And regarding this video: As David Letterman used to say when a band did something great on his show, "That's all you need right there!"
Thanks again and yes, that IS Pat Metheny. And what he is playing is a Roland G-300 guitar which is a controller for the Roland GR-300 guitar synthesizer. It looks like the guitar has been customized with a control panel to run the synth presets without having to go to the floor. Interesting setup.
Perfection. This is (and will probably always be) definitely the best version of this song. And they most confusing thing about this performance is that there is no brass but it's so incredibly awesome. Love it.
+britocho The way he grips the pick, the guitar special device, the style playing and sound... it can only be Pat Metrheny. The strange thing is that he used to wear white and blue stripes shirts for decades.
Keys - Herbie Hancock.
Guitar - Pat Metheny.
Bass - Dave Holland.
Drums - Jack DeJohnette.
What the heck is Metheny playin'?
His decade old modded guitar
I think it's a guitar manufactured by Robbie the Robot..
Led Zep of jazz...
mad dope
This is, without doubt, the best version I have heard. Brilliant.
Can't be better than this! Musicianship on the highest level! Wow!🙏🙏🙏
Herbie's solo just killed me
Amazing.....just amazing.....and Pat Metheny on guitar...incredible....just blows my mind x
Daniel Cormier is playing a solo this saturday. A drum solo. On your face.
salamgaz
Steroids killed you..
Me too !
Watching this just takes me to another level of skill.......a skill rarely seen anywhere. HH's piano and PM's guitar......incredible.
iv'e just learned pm's part and i'm playing it with my band
Wow...soooo cool Yoav; well done sir!!
One of my favorite live performances ever.
eeeeeeeveryone just kills it, amazing ♥
agree...you might want to check a version w/ W. Shorter, Omar Hakim and Stanley Clarke ua-cam.com/video/JixfzsQWZ8c/v-deo.html
Wilburgur wow, great to know that autism cat and ss boi also enjoys jazz xD
I agree
you are everywhere dude wtf
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Dave Holland is so calm. I wouldn't be able to contain myself in a jam with those cats :)
the modern masters of jazz and jazz-fusion
Awesome stuff man. Pure gold.
Just for the records: the team is Herbie Hancock on keyboards, Pat Metheny on guitar, Jack De Johnette on drums, Dave Holland on bass. One (short) step behind God(s).
Daniele Cuomo righty
Each one one of the elites in their respective instrument
Thanks for this. It would be nice if it was in the description at the top. Gotta give credit where the credit is due baby!
Best version I've heard so far.
adriannaklid defi safe
fantastic rolling and swinging Jazzy Blues Rock
du pur délice ce "Cantelope" Island!
Best nine minutes you'll ever spend on UA-cam. 👍
Herbie Hancock is just amazing!
I can listen to this for eternity
amen
the first real jazz I listened back in 2008. and now I can play It with my own chorus.
This video got me into jazz some years back. Would've missed a lot if it didn't happen, lucky me.
Same!
I love his occasional dark/midnight blue chords from the 1960's. But it's hard not to get emotional when he starts pounding on the keyboard at 4:33.
i like this herbie. good mix and tempo. jazz in time to keep pne on the go. this will surely fire you up.
Amazing, the best Cantelope Island version!!!!!
really amazing, i think i heard this version at least 1000 times now and i can't get enough of it.
I also like Herbie being so authentic when he is playing this. When he does a mistake, he does not try to hide it or "overplay" it, he just stops and starts with a new idea :D So for example at 2:30 he kinda loses his idea or what he wanted to play, so he stops and he just really looks like he was thinking "ah damn" :D And his face when playing some scales or other lines is unique :D
whoo that herbie solo gets me every time smh
Magique !!!! le thème reste un hymne à Herbie .......
toujours le plaisir de les écouter !!!!!..........
Watched that more than 20 times. Amazing! Herbie, Pat, Jack and Dave together!!! Just perfect!!!

I have listened to this countless times, awesome, jamming music. A league of it's own......
Oh My Holy God what guitar solo from Pat!!!!
jazz isn't dead...it just smells funny.
Smart comment.

And this smells funky
A master at work . Miles knew…

They ARE too good!!!! They paid their dues long ago!!!! They DID practice from young onward!!
Wonderful!
Thumbs Up To Herbie Hancock Thumbs Up To The Guitar Player, Plays & Sounds Like George Benson & Bless Jazz Awesome Performance!!

that fucking funky keyboard at the ending...
Not enough superlatives for his talent - g.o.a.t (Greatest Of All Time)!
Nothing like classic Herbie.
I will never ever get over how absolutely amazing this rendition is. OH. MY. GOD. I have the same reaction every time I listen to it. CRAZY!
lol bass @ 5:06 after Hancock's solo is just like "Fuck you're good"
No shit huh? And check out Pat Metheny blowin' out killer notes like it's a walk in the park. Crazy good.
WOWEEE REEE, I never thought Will aka. the guy behind the Autism Cat enjoyed himself some good jazz!
Shieeet my mang
@@MadnessOpus 再次用一次詩人死啊歐
偶爾歐恩偶爾LOLㄡ
Metheny is a master at inside-outside improv. Herbie is as well, creating tension by playing chromatically outside the changes.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Jack, Herbie, Pat and Dave...Amazing
Reminds me of the day when I had a Jazz club! Pure gold.....
WTF Pat Metheny, that solo... Perfection
you're listening to the music, but you're feeling Dave's holland groove. dat bass :'v
Yes we are!!!!!!!
HOLDING IT DOWN in the BASSment!!!
I agree Jazz is first a feeling. And this feeling is happy.
Your incomprehension and appreciation of jazz is understandable. Jazz is liberation for people who can feel it. I hope you'll be able to feel it someday.
Only a complete and total maroon could thumbs down such virtuosity.
+Philip Berg LOL Well said.
+Philip Berg Indeed!
+Philip Berg robots.. (as in "Aliens")
Speak clearer English please, Kostas! What do you mean?
+Philip Berg ... Agreed!
listening this to try to drown out the sound of my roommate''s country music in the next room
Joe Rizzo godspeed
Joe Rizzo .best comment.BTW did it work?
ohhhhh this great!!!! Pat Metheny and Herbie Hancock ohhh my god is a felling amazing!

Good God, what a lineup. Sounds amazing, thanks so much for posting.
Herbie the heritage master class and Miles Davis cie....genius merci👍
Awesome....I Love Jazz!
Que bien suena !
In the groove is the only place to be,
This is absolutely off the charts. My favorite version of this tune. Four Masters. Superb.
658 thumbs down from Pat Metheny hating Kenny G fans.
Liquid Gold!......keep it coming!
I'm a fan of progressive rock/metal and I can see what influenced bands like dream theater so much
Dave Holland is The Rock
Fantastic!
Can anyone share this memory with me when he visited Nuremberg (Germany) for a concert? Very unique and unforgettable!!
I think most of us start out as music snobs. I did. Your right, its so much more fun to take it all in.
The guy playing the guitar is Pat Metheny love his trio gigs!
2019?
always !
@@claiborne5962 every day!
... come back in 2029, we'll still be here ;)
Nope! :(
2021.
JAZZ contemporáneo con brillantez y virtuosismo ¡¡¡¡¡
I just love Jazz
I always think: What if W. A. Mozart could hear that...
Dan-yell carpenter or J.S. Bach. I actually think that they would perceive the actual harmonic richness and colorfulness of this music quite positively and appreciate it.
I think they wouldn’t like it because the people that were born before Jazz often didn’t like jazz because it was so different. Just like parents today don’t like the music their children listen to, although I totally agree with them.
Beethoven has created jazz
@@conzo4620 The parents may not like it at first but in time they (we) learn to appreciate it.
Hmm i’m gonna change my genre #haha
That black man is my new religion.
Herbie et Pat Metheny , deux géants de plus dans l'échelle de la perfection...Merci à eux et aux autres avec ce Cantaloupe Island hors du commun...
INCREDIBLE!!!

It's not much of a fusion jazz version, but yea it's freakin' awesome
La bonne vieille version de pat metheny avec herbie
Êxtase é a palavra que expressa o que sentimos ao ouvir esse "Imortal".Toda a atmosfera, que nos envolvem essas melodias, tem cheiro e sabor.
Superb!
This just draws you in completely. I hardly realized 9 minutes had passed since the video started!
What's that crazy Guitar Pat's playing!
Has to be an Ibanez, but what?
+Dave Kana Roland Guitar synth from early 80s, which looks modified with a control panel of some kind.
+Lee Barry Thanks, I had no idea!
Not modified. The original design of the Roland guitar synth was first an entire guitar with the system retrofitted to it. The pickups came later.
when michael league grows old, he'll look like pat metheny
+Tushar Lall and sound like Pat M.
then i gotta love pat too :V
.-.
grows old & grows hair !
pats look is essentially peak level jazz fusion aesthetic. if a berklee practice room in the 80's was a person.
My goodness gracious Herbie is rippin' it up! This song is a timeless classic for the all-time great jazz compositions. So deceptively simple in its form until someone like Mr. Hancock and his crew take it to the moon and back. Keep it up!
One of the best songs with one of the best musicans.
Oh wow, I accidentally stumbled upon the concert one of my professors was referring to during a class, in which Pat Metheny and Herbie Hancock play together XD Wasn't even looking for it on purpose.
i think your teacher is a good person xD
Professor actually lol His name is Samuel Morales, I believe there's some of his music in internet, probably from his Quintet.
SM Quintet, that makes it much easier to find lol
I want mr dejohnette as my drummer when I transition to the next level
Any time, any space, any dimension!!
Thats some highly advanced music right there. Wow.
Grandissimi artisti, semplicemente,meravigliosamente, grandissimi artisti !!!!!

Me too
Perfection. This is (and will probably always be) definitely the best version of this song. And they most confusing thing about this performance is that there is no brass but it's so incredibly awesome. Love it.
That's Pat Metheny in the guitar...right? Could somebody confirm this please?? :D
britocho Yes, he is. A living Jazz legend ;)
+britocho From his Shirt i can assure you he's Metheny.
+britocho The way he grips the pick, the guitar special device, the style playing and sound... it can only be Pat Metrheny. The strange thing is that he used to wear white and blue stripes shirts for decades.
+extremadrummer His sound is unique. So is his hairstyle. :D
i confirm sis
How could you possibly ask for a better group of musicians?
Hay que quitarse el sombrero con este gran pianista de JAZZ ... GREAT HANCOCK ¡¡¡¡
Haven't seen Herbie since we partied at the Smiling Dog Saloon in Cleveland decades ago. Always a treat.
527 people need a new brain...
+Martin D haha lol … Take the A brain … just one funny thought haha :)
Ok, where can I donate for them ?
553
How many is it up to now?

I will give someone a lot of money if they can make a tab of his guitar solo
+jrubin1994 do it yourself, its in transcribing you learn the most :)
Magic rythm, i so like this !!!
great playing; both, herbie and pat
