Had never heard of them in my naivete in early 80s in Milwaukee's Summerfest. They were on small stage and no one was watching so walked right up to front row. They rocked. The next year they had a full house.....will never forget them ending the night with Aaron singing "Amazing Grace."
This was great!I thought I saw all the letterman performances but the last two I didn't.Thanks for the videos!We will miss you Art and Charles,Rest in peace my friends🎹🎷
Don, you are wonderful to go to all the work and share your Letterman videos with us. To spend just a little while enjoying our Dave from yesteryear, is priceless! ;-) Thank you so much!
We used to follow them around New Orleans when they played at block parties in 1977-78. We always got the shy crowd dancing and they were amazingly grateful to us. The percussion was astounding.
My first exposure to the Neville Brothers was in the lot before the concert. Grateful Dead was in Pittsburgh Pa, summer 87. I was smoking a joint with new friends,and the brothers stopped and smoked with us. The people i was with said "we better get inside",after the brothers walked off. I had no idea who they were 😂❤️🔥
This collection in fantastic but the last song (24:40) is priceless: The heart and soul of New Orleans, The Meters and The Neville Brothers... TOGETHER !!!
great compilation - thanks. the final song 24:50 with the Meters (George and Zigaboo) is a standout. strong lead vocal by Art. not only marcia ball but isn't that trombone shorty?
Yes, it is. It was just a surprise to see Marcia Ball. You don’t see her on tv often. Man, the talent on that stage! Neville Brothers, Meters, Shorty, Marcia and Paul & Band.
...upon watching the whole video, I didn't see the tattoo in any of the clips??...what I did see was gradual aging...until the jump from 1996 to 2005..wow!...everybody really got old looking(especially Dave)!....:(
Don Giller you’re welcome. Thank you for putting these appearances together for us. It is a wonderful tribute. I did confirm that it is Marcia Ball. She is a great blues singer/songwriter and New Orleans style piano player.
Aaron Neville a giant of a man,talented and yet humble. The Neville Bros -what a gift to music ! 👌

Rare band that can keep it fresh right through to their old age.

For those unaware, Art Neville died today. Age 81! He sure looked and acted younger than his years.
Thanks for sharing this !!!
Rest in peace Mr Nevil? ❤
OMG how good is Fire on the Bayou! Just superb.
Rest In Peace ✌ Mr. Art

Don! You da man!
Cyril is a great entertainer for the music
The highest level!
That's a take!
Personnel on camera?

In time.
Was that Marcia Ball singing backup on Fire on the Bayou?
Don’t know, but thanks for correcting my typo. :)
