July 2022 and still wonder why wouldn't the bass player get 1k thumbs-ups. Absolutely outstanding César Giner.

seen ximo in Spain a few times, very underestimated!!

Temazo redondo, las armonías vocales, arreglos y los solos. Del solo de batería no digo nada porque ya lo han dicho todo, pero el solo de Ximo creo que es de lo mejor que ha hecho: velocísimo, variado, inspirado, no repetitivo, una pasada, MAXIMO NIVEL. !!!!!

Look at how much respect all the other musicians have for Nathaniel Townsley. A lot love on that stage - a sign of a good band leader.

Townsley 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

[@billbrandt1106]

Nathaniel Townsley is my all-time favorite drummer because he is always a musician first. He plays the most tasteful & interesting drum part to every composition. He is also highly technically skilled and can amaze you with how easily he does very difficult rhythms. But he doesn't play to show off - he plays to create beauty. ALSO = I love this version of Take Five. Very nice.

Kind of Pat Metheny style (versión a lo Pat Metheny). Nice. In my opinion.

[@basi-vega35]

My humble opinion: Music was great....but the background singers were a bit much.
