- Steps Ahead was a jazz fusion group formed by vibraphonist Mike Mainieri in the 1970s. In the heydays the lineup consisted of Mike Mainieri, saxophonist Michael Brecker, pianist Don Grolnick, bassplayer Eddie Gómez and drummer Steve Gadd. They fused elements of jazz, R&B, funk and rock in one blend of jazz rock.
The band was active during the 1970’s and 1980’s and fell apart in the nineties. They gave a reunion concert however during the 2005 North Sea Jazz Festival.
This unique concert was recorded at the North Sea Jazz Festival, 14 July 1985 at the Congresgebouw, The Hague, The Netherlands, featuring Michael Brecker and the rhythm section of Weather Report: Victor Bailey and Peter Erskine. It was never broadcast!
The full line up:
Mike Mainieri, vibraphone,
Michael Brecker, saxophone
Chuck Loeb, guitar,
Victor Bailey, bass
Peter Erskine, drums

I was there and enjoyed every second of it. Got chickenskin on Beirut, Trains and tears on my cheeks while they were playing in a Sentimental Mood. Fantastic guys, this was a SUPERGROUP. Amazing concert. RIP Michael and Chuck
Who’s still listening in 2022? I was there… amazingly fanatastic
Me too! 🙌✊
2024!!
What an incredible musicianship! It was so much fun hearing and seeing these tunes! Thanks for the upload and thanks to the wonderful musicians!
Michael Brecker is my favorit sax performer of all time. RIP
He was the best saxophonist of his generation and he played with the best of fusion giants, Steps Ahead, Pat Metheny, Uzeb and many others.
Brilliant stuff ❤️❤️❤ ... And who knew Patrick Marber was such a badass on guitar?!
The delight on Victor Bailey's face is wonderful to see. Surrounded by great musicians, what a thrill.
JUST WHAT I WAS THINKING WELL DONE
Great musicians. RIP Michael and Chuck, we'll never forget you both
Also victor bailey RIP
@@JoEsp Right
And Rip Victor Bailey
One of my first jazz festivals. I was 23 and blown off by this fantastic performance!
Chuck Lob...always inspiring! R.I.P.
Chuck Loeb plays worlds first guitar synthesizer from roland.. just wow
@@Jolafunk Especially that Roland 700 series. I’ve never heard it sound as good and I owned one,
I remember this concert. I was mainly impressed by the play from Michael Brecker and vibraphonist Mike Mainieri.
what happen to Chuck Loeb? I guess he was lifted in those times by such musicians as Brecker and Steps ahaead in general....?
What?
I was there aswell great concert (in het Tuinpaviljoen) and super festival. North Sea Jazz in the '80es was incredible.
What year what is that exactly?
Rip Victor mike and Chuck we miss you guys very much
When I watch this video over and over again, I see Michael having fun with what he is doing with the saxophone, just like everyone else who is on stage at that moment! It's priceless!
Incredible Musicians. 👏🏿👏🏿❤️
RIP Victor Bailey, Bassist Extraordinaire 🖤❤️
RIP my friend Chuck Loeb 🖤🤍
Greetings from Uganda 🇺🇬👊🏿🖤
Nunca te olvidaremos Brecker. Tu legado seguirá hasta el fin del mundo.
A few months before Steve Smith and Mike Stern came in. I saw a kind of pickup version of Steps Ahead many years later in Montreal, with Mainieri and Brecker and Jeff Watts on drums. One thing that was obvious was how much they loved playing this material.
I was there! Unforgettable ♥️
当時ラジオで放送されたものを録音して繰り返し聴いていました。マイケルのMCまでしっかり覚えている。
まさか映像があったとは!
this is a gem, never take it down!!!!
My favourite band even now in 2020.Switzerland is here🇨🇭👍❤
These guys were so ahead of their times.
Priceless even shedding tears super Band and the Great Ones here in Spirit but not Body anymore Michael Victor and Chuck Rest in Power
I was there in the Hague. They blew my mind with "in a sentimental mood" and "trains".
What year was that exactly?
I've been listening to Steps Ahead since 1983 and have only heard them live once, in Wigan (UK) in 1999 with Bob Mintzer and Eliane Elias.
That would have been Bob Berg on Tenor sax not Mintzer.
@@mmee24 You could be right.
troppo bravi pazzeschi
SUPERB late-stage offering from ALL the players! (Brecket STANDS OUT EVEN amongst these BRILLIANT fellow-jazz musicians!!)
"Self Portrait" = what dynamics mean in music
Mickael Brecker has a style recognisable between all

Je les avais vu à NICE FRANCE ! Assis derriere PETER ERSKINE ! fantastique formation de musiciens extraordinaires !
Peter Erskine and Mike Brecker intro-duet on 1.10.00 is worth waiting for. Audience crys for more and they sure got it!
Steps Ahead and some of Weather Report in the same video! How cool!
Victor Bailey, bass, rest in peace.
Wow. i had no idea Chuck played with Steps!!! RIP Chuck and Michael
This is so phenomenally epic! This goes straight in my music history and historic concerts folder
This is the best stuff ever!
Now this is one concert that I really would have liked to have attended. Thanks so much to UA-cam, I can at least enjoy the second best thing - a video recording.
By the way, I just marvelled at Michael Brecker when he transitioned from playing the EWI solo version of "In A Sentimental Mood" to "Trains". Just imagine having to play those too pieces back to back live!!!
I am totally amazed by how this footage still exists.. I had taped this on betamax but it got lost over time.
= THANK you for this Unique post!
Saw them at umbria jazz, guess a few days before /later
Incredible!!! Absolutely incredible!!! Thank you!
Young and amazing Bailey, incredible band! Thanks!!!
Thanks for posting this. I heard them in Pori jazz in Finland on the same summer. Great music, great team.
Oh my god, what a concert....

The highest point of an entire fusion era
Amazing Fusion 🔝
OMG! Thank you so much!!
I just discovered your channel. Thank you for posting material like this!
TOPISSIME !!!
As good as it got at ”the time”. Lots of new technology to integrate. The music still comes first
R.I.P Mr Bailey.
Excelente música. Grandes intérpretes. Muy buenas grabaciones.
Muchas gracias.
The walking march of Victor Bayley sound like a upright bass. 😯
Thank you!
RIP Víctor Baley! 😢 Only the Good die young.... What a huge loss to the continuity of modern jazz bass repertoire and performance...
Saw this incarnation of the band two weeks before this performance at Summerfest in Milwaukee.
1985 Stereo vid.
Great!!!
Que des souvenirs
Super
Erskine wasn't just a fill-in; he played with Steps Ahead for years after Steve Gadd did not want to stay with "Steps" after a brief Asian tour.
Do you know why he didn’t want to play with them?Gadd I mean
Erskine the best for steps
i loved watching Michael listen to the music 2:36
54:38 In a Sentimental Mood
I'm glad this exists, but the camera work is all over the place. During Oops, the camera guy was fixated on Mike Mainieri while Brecker was going absolutely insane! WTF?!?!? It was during this time the bass got turned way up in the feed for no discernible reason.
It's unedited. Raw material. Some material was broadcasted and edited afterwards. This is the live edit, not meant to be broadcasted.
Like it or not, live music is a wonderful thing.
Fortunately it was captured for us!
RIP legend
@1:01:00 I cant believe how solemn the crowd is... altho I've read that europeans enjoy their music in this manner, i tend to think that, as humans, at least a small few in a large crowd are bound to break out in dance upon experiencing great music... simply as a natural, if not primal, reaction. Even if 'customs' says otherwise. I remain surprised at the calmness bc i'd be goin off! What a set!

I was in town during this gig. Pity I was in first grade at the time 😑
I always knew my grandmothers were hip but I never knew the same people that made their kitchen tables made Maniari's axe. One had the yellow and one had the red.

Crazy about POOLS version
Great music and memories. WOJ needed to use professional videographers. It looks like a high school production. Chuck is burning a solo and the camera is fixated on Michael not playing. Weird.
No humans knows how to win with the evil, except the God.
Why the one filming , need to be so much time in their life faces.
3 of these cats are dead. Very sad.
Right Chord Leadership SOOO SAD
What's the name of that first tune?
Such a shame!!!!! Such a great Band and Such a lousy camera work......they show us the wrong players while another one plays his solo......unbelievable
Looks like they uploaded footage coming from only one of the cameras. Really sad, coz this is one heck of an Ensemble of Musicians.
Horrible camera!!!!! What a shame!!! How could camera man be so LAME!!!
Looking at this conveniently I would agree but looking at this intricately I wouldn’t agree 😃
Turn the bass up please I can’t hear it.
The sound is all over the place in this. The drums and sax are the loudest. I can hear the bass just fine though and I'm having a 70 dollar Bluetooth speaker
Where's the song list homes?
Does anyone remember the title of the first piece?
Oops
@@ewi4000 Thanks, got it!
What Primus would sound like if they didn't s***
worst camera director ever
Sorry man steve smith didnt make it like erskine!!!, ask anyone
'Modern' Jazz ...inverted commas and question mark...........keeps taking Step Backwards !
Horrible mix, too bad because the band is killer (ofc)
Loved this version of Steps.Terrible audio mix (and out of phase) poor directing and those awful PV amps. These guys deserve better than this ! Music on tv was pretty bad back then (mono)and internet audio only adds to the shortcomings.
