Something similar happened to me forty years ago in 1983 here in Kenya. Overheard Dave Grusin's iconic "Mountain Dance" by chance, and immediately fell in love. "Mountain Dance" was my introduction to jazz. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 22nd November 2023.
Splendid rendition...Loved your improv on the keys...Not an easy song to play...Very nice, as a full band...Job well done to all...This vid is Dave Grusin approved!....❤
I was reminded about Dave Grusin as today is his birthday. I loved him in the 70’s-80’s. Went to You Tube to hear him again and loved being brought back in time.
It is not often that I like an original composition and still think great of a cover. But, my God, I am ever so impressed by your take on one of my all-time favourites that, if you could see me now, you would find nothing but an almighty grin from ear to ear, just from the simple pleasure of having found a perfect rendition of Dave Grusin's 'Mountain Dance' ! Ooh, I'm so chuffed. Thanks, fellas and I wish you the very best with your career !!
Great cover! You've captured the DNA of this wonderful piece with much respect. Thanks guys for doing your part to help tame mankind. Everyone be careful out there..
OMG, my friends nailed it. Soulful, Jazzy and PERFECT. VERY COOL. THESE ARE SOME TALENTED MEN. THANK YOU for sharing your amazing gift with all of us. I cannot wait for your future music as you are some serious talented young men. I truly enjoyed this version of Dave Grusin's song, NICE JOB!!!!

"Mountain Dance" was also my introduction to jazz. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 22nd November 2023.
This is my " all time favorite Dave Gruisin tune,; and to hear you guys put your flavor on it!? !! Love it even more!!! I'm learning the bass line right now.
I'm so happy to hear this and watch the Bass. Going to mimic the fingering. Only so perplexed when I see 6 year old comments but I just found this today. I've watch Dave and Lee's version 6000 times by now. it's the first video every time I open youtube. Why is this just coming through? This Is Music. What all-go-rhythm did this to me? I have many questions due to this...
greatest arrangement that i've ever heard of all the cover from one of the greatest masterpiece of dave grusin's here in youtube! it's so smooth,very clear and technically simple but yet very refreshing to mind and ears because of the purity of this guy's arrangement especially on the keys and drums. so professional. bravo! greetings from the philippines. keep it! 👏
I have listened to many covers of "Mountain Dance" but none equaled your performance. The drummer surpassed Carlos Vega and has Dave Weckl influence. The bassist kept time with Laboriel. Amazing interpretation P.T.L. - For His Glory!
@@JTAUDIO2 Listening again for the umpteenth time. Everyone in your group is extraordinarily talented. Such a full sound from just 4 guys. Reminiscent of Return to Forever.
Excellent cover of "Mountain Dance," the real deal. And I just love the way you guys make it look so easy. Keep up the excellent work. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 22nd November 2023.
Not an easy song to play. Excellent cover of one of my Dave Grusin all time favs. Nicely done.
Thank you very much!
It takes courage and talent to cover a classic like this-LIVE! Kudos to all of you!
Thanks
True music played from people that really are in love with music. You make the world a better place.
I listened to this in the eighties. great times.
Thanks Man
