The Chicken" or simply "Chicken" is an instrumental funk tune composed by Pee Wee Ellis that was the B-side to James Brown's 1969 single "The Popcorn". The tune gained greater exposure with versions by Jaco Pastorius. Bravo, Mr. Pastorius!
I've lost count of how many times I've commented "I have a new favorite song!" to one of your videos. Gentlemen...that was amazing. Truly. Flawless and pitch perfect. Thank you all once again. Blessings from Kansas~
@@francescosilvestri1406 This is the only rendition of this song I've ever heard, so I really can't judge the tempo. Being an old jazz man I think it's a great jazz jam. Blessings from Kansas~
Whenever Joscho and Bireli play together, you KNOW it's going to be very, very special. Pure mastery and artistry. Volker Kamp, the wonderful bass player too.
Was raised on jazz in the 50's, my dad having his own trio. When I picked up the guitar he gave me my first chord book, by Joe Pass. At 70 years young, Joscho S. on UA-cam is my go-to! Merry Xmas gentlemen, and thank you for all the beautiful music...
Funky! Every time you post a video it inspires me to pick up the guitar and try to be 1/1000th as good as you guys. You've just set me back a few years with this one!
I would argue the 'funk' mainly came from Brecker on this one, but this tune is one for the ages; Jaco is beyond a legend Thanks for sharing and excellent job!
Amazing stuff! You never fail to blow me away with your excellence. The term mediocre isn’t in your vocabulary. Thank you yet again for another great performance! 👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹
Very nice improv anything associated with Jaco Pastorious catches my attention as I’m a old Florida boy just like Jaco born in 51 me 52 both grew up in old Florida those were some nice times and I loved his work in Weather Report Punk Jazz and Havona my favorites man I miss Jaco RIP my man😢
Joscho please come to Istanbul. We were so happy to see Maestro Bireli here last week . Now it is your turn😊 You all are amazing. Thank you. Edit Sep 2024. I got my ticket 😊. Looking forward to watching you play. Thank you Joscho 🎉
Superb performance by your brilliant trio! I love it! I recently bought the "Biréli Lagrène play Loulou Gasté" CD at an F.N.A.C. but alas, I can't find any Joscho Stéphan CDs. What a shame!
Some of Joscho's & the Trio themselves are on iTunes/Apple Music, but not all of them unfortunately 😭 They did a version of Cherokee with Mathias Strucken on Piano that I wish that they had recorded & cut for release but they didn't/haven't as of yet. And this one is another one that I wish that they would cut & release
I had a really bad day yesterday and woke up this morning needing an attitude adjustment. You guys delivered the exact adjustment that I needed. Thank you! ❤
If you tried to put the nylon strings that this guy plays on a classical or flaminco guitar the bridge would go flying. I know about string tension because I have actually measured it on many strings at many different scale lengths.
I played with Jaco for a short stint and was wondering if you guys would be ok with me Playing a drum track to this and Posting it here? It feels really good and I would love to play along.. Great job Guys.

Thank you for crediting the original artist. ♥ Most people think that tune is from Jaco.

Two absolute masters of the guitar with instantly recognizable voices. Thanks Joscho for this classic and for honoring Jaco right! Bravi tutti

Great technique, but a bit too accelerate, don't you think?

Great rendition. With a tribute and the great bass line, the bass player should get name in the title also.
Your music is a cure to soul, outstanding talents!
So very good. And the bass is just killin it also!

Привет из Сибири
I came here for the lead guitars 'cuz I'm not really a "bass" guy. But geez, this dude's killin' it. 'specially considering it's a standup.
Thanks!
Great Stuff is going on..
Funkadelic Funkenstein 👍👍

awesome! But a tribute to Jaco with no bass solo? Come on guys show the bottom end some love! Thanks for another great tune.
I played with Jaco for a short stint and was wondering if you guys would be ok with me Playing a drum track to this and Posting it here?
It feels really good and I would love to play along.. Great job Guys.
Bass master.
круто!)
Great! Does anyone know what guitar Joscho plays on this tune?
1:32
"Wow"
0:47 Bireli what?
If you ain't tappin' your feet you ain't got no feet!
Meisterhaft, gute Musik braucht nicht viel, wenn man sein Instrument beherrscht.
The groove is the lighter than my budget in today's economy 😩🔥🔥🔥
Where was the basssolo?
Cmon
Who even does bass solo on Chicken?
3:52-3:54
Wauv!
