"Delightful Spekkio" (Chrono Trigger) LIVE Jazz Cover // J-MUSIC Pocket Band

- Our live cover of "Delightful Spekkio" from Chrono Trigger, originally composed by Yasunori Mitsuda. This arrangement by Patrick Bartley.
Ok, honestly, this has to be the wackiest part of Chrono Trigger, and one of the most unique moments in RPG history, for sure. Don't you just hate it when you travel ALL the way to the End of Time, wigged out of your utter brains, and you meet this fluffy mankey-looking creature that tells you the only way you'll get magic powers is if you run laps around a room 3 times (oh and don't run the wrong way)? Well, the saving grace of this weird encounter is the fun, bouncy, friendly soundtrack, that almost reminds us of something Cannonball Adderley would play - and that's where we took it! Everybody gets a piece in this one, and Jasper busts out the bass clarinet once again to make the bass line even phatter! This track is sure to put a smile on your face and get you up to dance (at least it did that to us and those in the room)! Which characters did you first take with you to get powered up by Spekkio?
*Fun fact: I (Pat) once heard Yusef quote a melody that sounded like this on the song "Work Song" from a live record "Nippon Soul" by Cannonball Adderley, and I almost jumped out of my seat because I thought Yasunori-san heard that specific solo and made a melody out of it. I was SOOO shocked! And then I realized that it was a song I didn't know, which share's the same first 4 notes and rhythm as this track - "Let's Fall In Love", an old pop song turned jazz standard back in the first half of the 20th century... I felt dumb but amused. Lol. Thought I'd share that.

Now run 3 laps around JM-E, thinking about the magic of their covers. (oh and don't run the wrong way!)
Never noticed the song lends itself well to a New Orleans second line interpretation before.
I was thinking the same thing. It really has that New Orleans feel to it.
Well this absolutely put a smile on my face.
Best extra info in the description.
Ya this one wa fun to read. The excitement to share and passion comes through for sure :D.
Edit: "Maney-looking creature" is a great description. I once tried yo describe him as a rotund, white ball dancing chicken.
Bass Clarinet ftw!
WHEEEW Jasper taking it OUT!!! The crunch is real!
Excellent as always! Keep the CT covers coming.
Water/Ice - Pat and Dom
Shadow - Jasper and Mat
Lightning - Olin
Fire - Chappy (I think the Mario hat influenced me here LOL)
Good musicians don’t come easy. Holding together is much much harder. Shed your pride. Work together.
So freakin' good. Chrono Trigger is such a broad-spectrum game in terms of score, and you guys keep knocking it out of the park!
So amazing. Hope you collab with @insaneintherainmusic some day!
This is bouncy in all the right ways!
Cool.... Good job bros. I'm proud of you, guys. Nice Jam!
Everybody, sharing! sharing this Video!
omg i love this song, this is one of the few songs i can play without a score on the piano, it's so fun to play. XD
BASS CLarinett
Hawt Damn, got me up and dancin'!
Daaaamn... Felt my body and soul rockin' back and forth the whole way through this one. Amazing.
Totally awesome guys!
Great stuff you guys!
This is a real banger arrangement!
Demais! Vocês são ótimos!
I like this a lot.
5:25 I Mean You! Love how the previous few lines lead to the quote perfectly.
One of my favorite songs from CT - well done, guys! Awesome!
Nice groove guys, love CT. 🐈🐈🐈
That Sax Solo Was Dooooope! Groovy groovy yeeeeeeea
All the Chrono Trigger covers are on beat! But am I the only one who would like to hear them play Bloody Stream? The second Jojo opening? No? Am I crazy? Probably.
IPSO FACTO MEENY MO
IPSO FACTO MAGICO
I'm a 25 year guitarist, and you just hit me with that "magic"... I can do blues but that Jazz...mmm hits me right in the heart. Ooo, Yeah. Teach me. All of you are True Musicians... not these fakes (performers).
Beautiful
Groovy
...
Please do "The Bear Necessities"
The feel is right
Was anyone walking around the room three times to get that magic? I love this

I don't know if it's pure coincidence but it seems every game chuggaaconroy plays makes their respective community become super active again
definitely. i mean, he basically made Xenoblade as a franchise popular.
Do views help with earth credits? How many times must I enjoy for you to get more?
Don't Think Twice cover from Kingdom Hearts 3 please
This is great! I love your description of this otherworldly scene for people who havnt played the game, its so out if left field, and in a great way!
Speaking of seeing him dance in the middle of the room, in his white fur (feathers?). I found this video that is equally as great cover, for different reasons.
