🎼 🎶 These beautiful and talented young ladies and guy are ambassadors of music and play like the masters of jazz funk . I adore the music played by these geniuses of their craft. I hope to see Harumo 🎷, Rina 🎸, Emi 🎹, and MiMi 🥁 live, for they are a gift to this world!🎵
This song from the Jazz Crusaders was the first 45 jazz song I ever bought. That song got me interested in jazz. This was a great cover of that wonderful song
If I didn't know better, I would think Jazz and Funk originated in Japan. I am 70 and I have not heard this kind of Jazz/Funk/Blues for a long time,...very refreshing 👍🏾
The Crusaders live in Japan in the 80s is still one of my favourite albums. The Crusaders ‘sound’ is hard to find again. You girls do it well. I am a fan. Stix, Joe and Wilton are smiling big smiles dead or alive.
I saw Next Crusade led by Wayne Henderson at the Osaka Blue Note a long time ago. The groove reminds me of those days, it's great. TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI and The Crusaders go well together.
So much wonderful music from Japan for decades! This group is pro all the way. What a great performance. I could listen all night. I took notice in the mid 60's when the Ventures introduced them to 'American' guitars styles in several genres. Tribute groups sprang up all over. The Ventures have played and created music ever since. Unbelievably long careers. Many of these groups should go international, including this one. THANK YOU!
I love all these girls but I'm pretty sure I have a crush on Rina. The guitar player is just awesome. Larry Carlton played this with The Crusaders back in the early 70s.
This is a cover of The Crusaders tune from the early 70s which featured the great guitar player Larry Carlton who played on many, many Steely Dan songs. I don't know how anyone could relate this to AWB. Haaaah.
Nope. They's so much better than that. Far superior. They need to play the Filmore, and the Monterey Festival. Seriously. Thrrow in Montalvo, for good measure, too.
This is the BEST thing I've heard on UA-cam in a long time! That guitar player is amazing! BUT YOU ARE ALL SO VERY GOOD! Keep these videos coming, they make me very happy! HAPPY NEW YEAR TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI!!!!!!!!!!!!
I discovered this band last week. However, I have this fantasy of going to a theater, blindfolded by a good friend saying, you gotta hear this band first, before you see them. After 5 minutes of such pleasurable music, taking off the blindfold and seeing the artists. Not just amazing musicians, not of American descent, but beautiful Japanese women playing with such heart and soul.
Love the groove ! The guitar solo was cool -- definitely some unexpected twists and turns ! The guitar melody sounds much stronger at the end, doubled with the saxophone.

I discovered this band 2 days ago and it’s safe to say I’ve had a spiritual awakening. Timeless, beautiful, simple, music.
10 hours ago, me 😉
Yeah. Tight, Excellent.

@Clem Fandango BIG facts. Too many steak video recommendations 🤣

Harumo is the sexiest sax player on this planet! All are excellent musicians, though!!
At 2:30 Harumo was on 🔥 Love it.
I have been a fan of the Crusaders for decades. This band does them proud!
Only recently,,
I like their groove.. put Juna back on.. I really think I could learn from watching her..
Rina is so much more excellent and talented at holding the bass line steady.
Coolest Japanese gals! You guys get better every time I listen. Koni chyuwaa, Arigato Gojaimas from Southern California
These gals are my new hero's....Mimi on drums is amazing.

Yes indeed!
Would love for them to cover "Rainbow Seeker" & "Spiral" from that live album
Killer tone on that horn, even sounds like Wilton Felder 😳
She sure does...she nails Wilton's phrasing & tone
Yes, this is groove. Please give us more. Happy new year from Northern Germany
I join this from the South! ;-)
And Happy New Year from another place in Northern Germany aswell. Seems that we love you here in a special way and you should visit us.
And here comes a big hug from Austria 🙂

Your post reminded me of the great pairing of the Ventures with Yuzo Kayama so many years ago.
@@calcanadian Yes! Simply great!!

@@independentthinker8930 thanks, ...bro...i love to hear her song very soulfull manner.
I just want to look at the drummer for hours
I love Kawakoh's dry groove. I hear Steely Dan in there😉👍 You guys are great!
I was just getting ready to say the same thing. Thats quite a compliment by any standard. Love their music, all of it.
Funny I hear the Average White Band
@@johnholkham2420 AWB? I think that disco polyester has caused a rash on your nut sak. WTF?

Excellent
Heart and soul here
Thank you!
They need to play on Saturday night live!
Nope. They's so much better than that. Far superior.
They need to play the Filmore, and the Monterey Festival. Seriously. Thrrow in Montalvo, for good measure, too.
SMOKING‼️
Mmmmmm....... lovely MiMi on the drums! Queen of the drums!
Gorgeous Harumo Imai on the sax!
