I've NEVER seen a band so happy to be playing together...

JEFF, I was wondering when you would get to this one. It is probably my favorite Snarky Puppy tune in a while. It has everything composition and performance wise, and emotionally speaking just leaves me happy and smiling. Michael League is a genius, and the guys are just SUPER talented! This song has been an earworm since I heard it 20 seconds after the release!! Thanks for the reaction... you are the man!

5:18 larnell's face is priceless 😆❤

Can't wait to see this reaction !!! I hope You feel that fresh brazilian breeze that uplift the self into a joyous state!

Absolutely ridiculous. All that talent and they leave egos at the door. The drum section😳😂 what in the world! Incredible!!! Thank you for the reaction!

Choices. So many players making such perfect choices..

Absolutely love this track.

Thanks, Jeff. It's amazing how so many players can stay locked in to the groove together.

The more times you listen to this, the better it gets! You mentioned Larnells roll towards the end of the song... the fill. I noticed the 3 drummers taking turns playing snare and kick for different passages with the other two guys playing "zones"; highhats and crash cymbals or tom fills and off-beat stuff on the cymbals. Just REALLY great coordination between 3 pros; Larnell, "JT" Thomas, and the youngster Jamison Ross. Just a REALLY great performance by this ensamble!

Just 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😅🙂🙃🙂😍🥰. Thank you so much for making a reaction to this one as well with Snarky Puppy🥰💚🤗.

Yeah Jeff, thanks, just another awesome Snarky track. It doesn't have the fireworks of Lingus or What About Me, but just a smooth, feel good groove all the way through. Empire Central, which will be released in full next month, has a shuffle tune called "R/L's" which I think you'll really like too.

I love how these guys communicate through music, how they communicate with each other, the way they layer sounds without muddying everything up. And still each listen brings something new that I hadn't heard before. I have a feeling Empire Central is going to be on REPEAT for quite a while! Jeff to help you on your Bob Reynolds rabbit hole dive, do check out Bob Reynolds Guitar Band - all 6 songs are fabulous. He also has his KZfaq channel and one of my favorite things was seeing his behind the scenes when Snarky Puppy did the Immigrance album - so cool to see their process and how all that chaotic energy transforms into incredible music.

Excellent stuff, what a track yet again

It's totally fine to have several drummers switching and stacking when you have a percussion ensemble that holds everything together like super glue. Hats off to the percussionists! They hardly get any love from us listeners.

Yep, another super fun tune (I had to do a transcription, just obsessed). It's a really interesting composition in so many ways - the basic material is pretty straightforward but there are so many small tweaks, and as always, the arrangement / orchestration is brilliant.

Congratz on reaching the 10K Milestone Jeff!! You rock!!!

Oh Yes please Jeff do some Bob Reynold"s ones! Closer and Feedback are two amazing tunes!

If you havent seen it already, you should react to a performance from the Bob Reynolds Guitar Band called Can't Wait for Perfect. Awesome live performance with a killer long form Mark Lettieri solo.

😄😄👍👍👍 loved the field they played around in. yeh

on third hearing...just fantastic!

Has a late 70s early 80s style

Ooooh, I don’t think I’ve heard this yet haha!! 🤩

Us: "Hey Michael League....can Snarky Puppy do Brazilian?" Snarky Puppy: "Hold our beers."

Get ready for another

The usual insanely good engineering. They always sound completely awesome!!

Hey bro, there is this song called Belmont on the (Empire Central Project) that has an instrument that we don`t see much, taken a very very nice solo, especially in a band this size .I know you will be blown away once you React to it!!

I am going make an allusion to the Rippingtons....a group that I truly admire. But Snarky Puppy brings that genre to much higher technical level and with more voice and energy.

I’m late to this Snarky game I LOVE it. Who writes all their stuff? I would think they collaborate??

love this track! nice reacts jeff thanks :)

I would like to see you explore Cory Wong and his band Cory Wong and the Wong Notes.

Always good comments from your extensive experience base. I'm always amazed at how many people they get playing together yet it never feels cramped or that people are stepping on each other. I've been pleased lately to see you reacting to some less well known musicians (for instance "Drift Lab" at least to me). In that spirit I wanted to suggest a fantastic Hungarian guitarist named Mike Gotthard. Plays a lot of really great fusion and in this particular cut has Gergo Borlai on drums. This is one of those musicians I'd love to see get more recognition stateside and that made me think of you. Hope you can find time-if not for a reaction- at least for a listen. He and his group are really a good listen. Best wishes. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNlyhb11p6fTcaM.html

Ok we're going to react at the same time. I should record my reaction :-)

You need to do some CORY WONG. try Meditation or Smokeshow, both live...

I haven't figured out how they use two drummers who manage not to clash with each other. And I can't understand why two drummers are necessary, especially when there's percussion. Any thoughts?

2:58 is just delicious!!!!

i would love if you react to xavi from snarky puppy at tiny desk, starting at 8 minutes.
