I first listened to this more than a year ago (first week of July '22). Since then, whenever the original by Head Hunters starts in my playlist, I instinctively switch to this - as it's my preferred version. These guys are so good. The individual tones and collective tightness take the cake. I don't usually notice a drummer's' "tone" that much, but this drummer, Arno Haselsteiner and his rig are just too good. Also a big shoutout to whoever did the sound tech / production work (Enrico Coromines, as the description suggests). I hardly ever comment on a UA-cam video, but this is just so good, and has so few subs and views, I felt like I must tell these people how much I enjoy their music and how much it means to me, after 1 year of regularly returning to listen to this.
What a cover should be. Surprisingly original - in such a way that brings a smile to your face, and yet retains the magic of the original hooks. Awesome job, gents
Thank you so much! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed the video! 😊 It means a lot to us. If you know anyone else who might like our music, feel free to share it with them. Thanks again for the support!
Over the years, there have been many cover versions of Herbie’s iconic funk classic but I must say this is one of the more innovative and inspired version, packed with memorable individual moments. A refreshing sumptuous musical treat indeed. Bravo, gents!
AMAZING!!! HANDS DOWN!!! This song means the world to me. Back in 1992 in grade 8 when my music teacher Jim Finkbeiner (saxophonist) introduced me to the Maynard Ferguson version of "Chamaleon" I was hooked on Jazz and on my trumpet. And now watching these great and awesome beast of musicians play this classic song it's quite the treat. Well done guys. Such coolness and accuracy and the tempo so solid...in the pocket. Loved the arrangement.

Super geschmackvoll arrangiert und performt! (Übe gerade die lead-in Phrasen und Teile von Michis Solo; und wow, die Synthie-Sounds von Olivers schönen Keyboards sind _fett_ , fett, fett!)
Thank you so much for your kind words and for stopping by! If you are interested we are going live every Thursday at 9 PM Berlin time and talk about jazz fusion music.
I believe Herbie Hancock and his band would give them 👍
So nice from you!
@@GrooveGalaxy I agree. Herbie Hancock has really good taste in funky music!
