...Getting up close to playing of this quality is a very sobering experience.

This music is not my thing either but a big +1 to what Chris says here.

Thanks Mike! What a great video. With my friend Tom playing trumpet too. I saw the LC gig at Ronnies (first set) and was sat right in front of him, a bass education as always! He is always kind enough to remember who I am and stop to say hi - what an absolutely TOP guy and player.

Love it - more if you have them please!

Who is the tenor player who play the last solo? I like his ideas.

Ditto, his horn needs a polish though....

I'll get my coat.

It may not be the most original music or concept, but I'd happily buy the DVD just to enjoy the music and the effort and knowledge that went into writing and producing it. I'd hate to think how many phone calls etc it took just to make that date happen! I have an enormous respect for what LC has achieved in his playing and music - so please pass the message on. I'd love to have seen the Ronnie's gigs, but this will do nicely for now.

Thanks again for the post.

Fantastic video! Huge respect for LC.
