I was there - front row - spoke with the guys mid and after show. Buzz was incredibly genuine, generous, warm and welcoming like I was an old friend. This was the most enjoyable show I'd ever been to - and this video only ever reaffirms the grateful 2 days I had the immense pleasure to witness incredible greatness. It's still beyond me how good someone can be on an instrument - never a flaw - never a mistake - just absolute perfection... How is that possible?
The first song that they are playing is called,"The Zone" from the "Rhythm of the Soul" CD.The musicians are: Dave on Drums,Tom Kennedy on bass,Jay Oliver on keyboards,Brandon Fields on tenor and soprano sax and Buzz Feiten on guitar.
This was without a doubt one of Dave's best groups ever. The addition of guitarist Buzz Feiten really added to the overall groove and fullness of sound! If you don't have the album "Rhythm Of The Soul" which featured this core grab it!
Their crowning achievement was 'Synergy', both the album and its 7th track of the same name. When I give the gift of music, this is most often the CD I choose. I run the Buzz Feiten Fan Club group on Facebook, and this fusion masterpiece anchors the great guitarist in his technical prime!
We old SIMPLY THE BEST EVER!!!!!!!!!l There tons of excellent musicians but Dave is Premier!!!!!! What's killer is he makes it look easy - mind blowing!
I just realized that I was attending M.I. during this time and saw this concert. I also had the pleasure of having a picture taken with Dave Weckl. One of my Idols growing up.
+Mark Kilmer he switched into sabians after 2000, after finishing his recording of Transition CD (still playing zildjs on that record) ... this is from 1998 = rhythm of the soul era so stil Zilds)
+miles 178 That's what I wanted to say :-) I know he plays sabian but as I grew up seeing him playing zildjian and now he plays sabian, I don't know a lot top players switching brands.
Buzz Feiten is actually on the Olivia Newton John "Physical Tour DVD from 1982 that I have. The other guitar player is Michael Landau! If you listen, you hear some very good playing! Great concert!!!!
This is one of the best shows given by master Weckl and this amzing and gifted musicians, I watch it over and over again from time to time just to remember how incredible this music and band was. Dave should call them over and make a final last piece.
Im 25 and just started getting into fusion. That solo by Buzz in Song for Claire is one of the best guitar solos I've ever heard, hands down. Wow! He just goes exactly where you want him to go. Not a bad note in that solo.
As many people already said, and considering of course that all are top level musicians, I really love how Buzz contributes with his performance on here. Such a talented as underrated guitarist.
The most terrifying drum solo I’ve ever heard , Dave weckl is off the charts , he’s illegal. Not from this world . Thank ya David for existing. GOAT by miles .
The funny thing about these top level drummers is they're only there because they worked for it when you're as technically skilled as weckl or gadd or buddy rich you can play whatever you want and it will be considered amazing, feel is definitely a more difficult thing for a drummer to grasp but I believe anyone can develop it if they play for long enough
Tom Kennedy is just as good with his bass guitar as Dave is on drums. This is pure dynamics and skill on display here. That last number was explosive and awe inspirational. If I could do that then I would have all of the skills and talents to perform for anyone! And those drums sound incredible. He pulled out everything he had in that performance.
TUTTI Superlativi Assoluti!!! MA *COSA FA*, Weckl: è davvero incredibile............... Non c'è un solo istante in cui non sia Sublime, nel suo modo UNICO di Suonare....... Perfetto. Assoluto IN TUTTO quello che fa. Weckl?..... SEMPLICEMENTE: IL PIU' GRANDE DI OGNI TEMPO. Da lasciarti senza parole.............. (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Saw this amazing version of the DWB in Nashville 's Gibson Cafe back in the day... One of the best live fusion performances I ever saw... They killed, knocked the roof of the motha'!
Would you be so kind as to give me some detail behind the RLLRRLLR RLLRRLLR sticking? I see it perhaps as an 8 or 16 note pattern and interested to know how it might be used and how it is most effective? Thank you for the insight.
Risenson Inthesky its a simple „inward double stroke“, which simply means, it begins with a single note. It can be played in any time with every time (8th, 16th, triplets and so on)
Wauu...amazing,para mi Weckl sigue siendo uno de los bateristas mas completos de la historia...excelente interprete,educador,compositor,productor...commpletisimo.
Really like that 8" Tom with the built-in snare strainer. I'm surprised it isn't part of his signature line. However, it's too bad Yamaha built that only for him & was never available to the public.
That foot pedal rhythm starting at 1:17:37 is awesome. I would like to learn more about your method of keeping that going so smoothly. Actually that whole drum solo is beautiful. I'm pretty sure that I could get the fills done, but I can't seem to find the foot Independence as well.
If you were born on the day of this show, you'd be able to legally buy a beer in about six weeks. And that's weird, because to me it feels like this album came out yesterday. ⏳sure does ✈️ !

This mix is still strong in 2024!!!
Dave is my favorite.
Seen him play some and it was amazing.
His dynamics and skill make it look like he invented the instrument. ✌️
The first song that they are playing is called,"The Zone" from the "Rhythm of the Soul" CD.The musicians are: Dave on Drums,Tom Kennedy on bass,Jay Oliver on keyboards,Brandon Fields on tenor and soprano sax and Buzz Feiten on guitar.
Thanks for your info bro 👍👍

A great album, but "Synergy" is even better, IMO.
I agree. I bought it as soon as it dropped in '98. Great jams!
@@brookelyn7714 really

Everyone always talks about Buzz on here, but Neil Larsen is what brought me to this channel lol.
Watching guys like Weckl always makes me want to play.
This is the MOTHER of all fusion jazz!!
Twenty years ago, and listen and listening again...The best days of Dave's dynamics...Awewsome...Here From Brazil never stop listen...
We old SIMPLY THE BEST EVER!!!!!!!!!l
There tons of excellent musicians but Dave is Premier!!!!!!
What's killer is he makes it look easy - mind blowing!
Wow!
Such an amazing drum mixing.
I just realized that I was attending M.I. during this time and saw this concert. I also had the pleasure of having a picture taken with Dave Weckl. One of my Idols growing up.
The undisputed champion of dynamics and finesse.
Jesus ... this band was totally about finesse and elegance! See Buzz Feiten's WikiPedia pages, one for his career, and one for his discography.
Buddy Rich? Yes, I TOTALLY AGREE ! ! !
Frank you called it, The King of Finesse... Nothin but Net.... Everytime The Man Plays.
HELL YES BRO!!!
Totally agree
My favorite edition of the Dave Weckl Band. Jay Oliver really can play his &%$ off and Buzz Feiten just added something really special to the unit.
Dave é o melhor do mundo!
Nunca vi um batera tão completo!
Eu já vi ao vivo no Coliseu no Porto com Chick. Não há igual
Vinnie Colaiuta !!!
wooooooooooooooow .... the best years of dave weckl band
greatest upload !!!!!! thank you sir for that
+miles 178 Same for me, my favorite periode! He was zildjian... I'm still not used to see him playing on sabian!!
+Dimitri P He was playing sabians in this vid what do you mean?
+Mark Kilmer yes! I'm still used to see him playing Zildjian... :-)
+Mark Kilmer he switched into sabians after 2000, after finishing his recording of Transition CD (still playing zildjs on that record) ... this is from 1998 = rhythm of the soul era so stil Zilds)
+miles 178 That's what I wanted to say :-) I know he plays sabian but as I grew up seeing him playing zildjian and now he plays sabian, I don't know a lot top players switching brands.
Jay Oliver...my absolute hero of all times....
There's a reason he's on every single Weckl album....
full ack.
Buzz Feiten is actually on the Olivia Newton John "Physical Tour DVD from 1982 that I have. The other guitar player is Michael Landau! If you listen, you hear some very good playing! Great concert!!!!
The best dave weckl solo that I have seen far now and very nice overall performance
Such finesse in playing! Dave rocks
He even sounds musical when he drops a stick! (See 1:03:23)
This is one of the best shows given by master Weckl and this amzing and gifted musicians, I watch it over and over again from time to time just to remember how incredible this music and band was. Dave should call them over and make a final last piece.
Jay Oliver is a killer player!!!
Keep it up Jay!!!
Im 25 and just started getting into fusion. That solo by Buzz in Song for Claire is one of the best guitar solos I've ever heard, hands down. Wow! He just goes exactly where you want him to go. Not a bad note in that solo.
Access Denied
1:24:25
Thank you Dave !!
Wowow! Incredible musicians=- All of them- it just does not get any better
I used to play in a jazz/fusion band, and we did covers of Mud Sauce and 101 Shuffle. They were such great improv tunes and a lot of fun to play.
Well, i'm buzzed!
He's a genius! 👍👍
Insane performance. Incredible. All the musicians are virtuosos. Weckl’s playing is smoother than a baby’s bottom covered in talc powder.
Love the DWB! Amazing - saw them live in '98 in Portland. Great players. Thanks so much for sharing.
I like Weckl gigs from the 90s. Better than the current ones
This is outrageous. Been listening to Buzzy since the Peaceful World and Isle Of Real Rascals albums.
Wow this is so damn funky !!! Love the guitar work !!!
What a line up.. This is my backing track song that I use to work out the funk. Love this BAND.
Best jazz rock band on Earth
Best drummer of all time. I’ve never seen a bassist like this as well.
I love listening to talented drummers
As many people already said, and considering of course that all are top level musicians, I really love how Buzz contributes with his performance on here. Such a talented as underrated guitarist.
Tenho 70 anos e 60 anos de música, ficou estarrecido com TD w estou ouvindo, mágico, acima de TDS as médias genial.
The most terrifying drum solo I’ve ever heard , Dave weckl is off the charts , he’s illegal. Not from this world . Thank ya David for existing. GOAT by miles .
Dave was already a genious back then. Even improving today (if it was possible...) with refinements. Real master
There's so much going on and yet there's still space in the music!
What a wonderful, amazing band.
The funny thing about these top level drummers is they're only there because they worked for it when you're as technically skilled as weckl or gadd or buddy rich you can play whatever you want and it will be considered amazing, feel is definitely a more difficult thing for a drummer to grasp but I believe anyone can develop it if they play for long enough
Yeah! My favorite iteration of Dave Weckl band - w/ buzz!
That stick recovery @1:03:21 was incredible :O
That sax and keyboard duo at 58:30 is legendary. Pure understanding and collaboration
HE IS THE LEGEND
Thanks a lot! These guys know their craft!
Nobodies cymbals and drums sound as good as Dave's, absolutely genius playing.
thank you weckl
Wow, Amazing!
Tks for the video.
I really like that group I wish they'd still be out there
many thanks for downloading this awesome stuff!!!
Even Dave Weckl voice is awesome.
Wow Some More Good Weckl, Big Surprise! Thanks!
And 8 People Need To Be Shot
Tom Kennedy is just as good with his bass guitar as Dave is on drums. This is pure dynamics and skill on display here. That last number was explosive and awe inspirational. If I could do that then I would have all of the skills and talents to perform for anyone! And those drums sound incredible. He pulled out everything he had in that performance.
Wow - what a great, great * 100 video!! The version of 'Someone's Watching' (located in the 30 - 40 minute range) is nothing short of amazing!!
Now this is the fusion I like! I don't like that weird stuff where they just play random notes, it's noise, this is music!
TUTTI Superlativi Assoluti!!! MA *COSA FA*, Weckl: è davvero incredibile............... Non c'è un solo istante in cui non sia Sublime, nel suo modo UNICO di Suonare....... Perfetto. Assoluto IN TUTTO quello che fa.
Weckl?..... SEMPLICEMENTE: IL PIU' GRANDE DI OGNI TEMPO. Da lasciarti senza parole.............. (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
His drum mix sounds amazing!!!
AMAZING, AWESOME, WONDERFUL!
Superbe concert ! Merci !
Saw this amazing version of the DWB in Nashville 's Gibson Cafe back in the day... One of the best live fusion performances I ever saw... They killed, knocked the roof of the motha'!
Wore that album OUT! Love it.
1:22:32 RLLRRLLR RLLRRLLR
Thank you, Mr. Weckl!!

wwwwoooooooooooooooooooooweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! WHAT A LICK!
wwwwoooooooooooooooooooooweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! WHAT A LICK!
Thank you Mr Dave
Dat music is great!
To all young musicians: listen and learn from the best, Dave and the band!
Wauu...amazing,para mi Weckl sigue siendo uno de los bateristas mas completos de la historia...excelente interprete,educador,compositor,productor...commpletisimo.
28-08-1998 it was a friday not a thursday :) Joking :P
Great upload! Great concert with awesome musicians!
Louie C.K. has a beautiful melodic sense on the clarinet. Breath taking!
that shit just made my day! gracias man
Dick Nixon it's good to observe I wasn't the only one seeing that
This is even funnier now that Louie was caught doing weird shit.
That might have been funny if he actually looked like Louie C.K.
real master, even back then at this young age....
This was the way after I graduated😢
The best gig, the best band
GREAT! The 90 : all time best of fusion!
BAD-ASS ... Buzz Feiten, one of the greatest guitarist of all time. Hands DOWN !!!!!!.
Increíble esta vara!!!
Prelijepo nice srdačan pozdrav
Incredible. Classic Weckl. WOW.
Someone watching and song for Claire are in my top 3 of weckl's song .
+Thomas Duchein Such beautiful compositions!
Awesome!! Thanks for the video :-)
Really like that 8" Tom with the built-in snare strainer. I'm surprised it isn't part of his signature line. However, it's too bad Yamaha built that only for him & was never available to the public.
At 1:14:27 is the most incredible drum solo I've ever seen in my life, no questions asked.
Jay is a genius!
Tom Kennedy on Bass ? ... Genius indeed !!!
So much power from Dave
Sobre natural esse solo! D guitarra coisa mais linda! Me faz viajar
bloody hell.....Dave came from mars.....
That foot pedal rhythm starting at 1:17:37 is awesome. I would like to learn more about your method of keeping that going so smoothly. Actually that whole drum solo is beautiful. I'm pretty sure that I could get the fills done, but I can't seem to find the foot Independence as well.
I' m in P100!! I was there part of the crowd..
Insanely GREAT........Better.........and BETTER.......with Each passing year.
Awsome band!!
sono certo che sia il migliore per qualsiasi band. Dave suona per dieci.
Brilliant then, Brilliant now !!!!!!!!
Acoltiamola tutta, la musica. Signori e Signore mr. Weckl.
If you were born on the day of this show, you'd be able to legally buy a beer in about six weeks. And that's weird, because to me it feels like this album came out yesterday.
⏳sure does ✈️ !
The master of the universe!
Guitar tone is magnificent
Dave il solito bravo batterista ma una ottima esecuzione del tastierista poi tutti bravi precisi ma soprattutto dei bravi professionisti complimenti.
