Вот это были времена!!!!! Жалко Джако Пасториуса нет!!!!!

the best!❤

Amazing band...jaco etc. But man Zawinul holding it down

No Jaco - no bird, only land.

I think I was at that concert at the Playboy Jazz Festival (known for Bill Cosby "playing it straight" as the emceee) at the Hollywood Bowl and the video here just doesn't do justice. This is after a long day in the sun and prior to Manhattan Transfer coming in stage. Grover Washington, Jr. proceeded them and totally blew the roof off the joint. After he was done it was pretty much anticlimactic and it was the only time that I've ever seen Manhattan transfer just totally blow. Is was very odd.

iS that Omar hakim drumming? Looks like him.

I was tebding var at Carmelos Jazz Club in the San Fernando Valley near LA, when Janice Siegalventered alone. she sat at my bar and ordered a cocktail ynfamiliar to me. it was Myerss rum and soda with a squezze of lime. Myerrs is a very dark Jamaican rum a bit bitter. i made she liked it.i made one for myself. she ordered another later. ivdidnt charve her of course, and she left me a generous tip. she was kind and very friendly. i named the drink her the "JSiegal".😊

I'd of given LARGE $$ to've been there...

Moi c'est surtout de voir les gens heureux d'être au concert et s'éclater avec de la bonne musique. Aujourd'hui ils seraient tous sur leurs portables.

Wayne did not do theatric dance gestures - he just played. His other band members danced and emoted. He stayed within himself. But it didn't detract from the music.

Birdland don’t sound right. Something’s missing. Oh yeah, of course…Jaco Pastorius. It ain’t Birdland without JP.

Love the ending...proper Swing...easy...from London with Love ❤

um, the video says 1984? not 1982

5,000 light years from Birdland But I'm still preachin' the rhythm Long-gone, uptight years from Birdland An' I'm still teachin' it with 'em Years from the land of the Bird An' I am still feelin' the spirit 5,000 light years from Birdland But I know people can hear it Bird named it, Bird made it, Bird heard it, then played it Well-stated!

I was there, Manhattan Transfer was not even on the bill, they just came on stage unannounced.

❤👋👋👋

Era la prima volta che lo ascoltavo, Weather Report e Manhattan Transfer insieme,beh,una sola parola mi viene in mente nel vederli suonare:MERAVIGLIOSI!!!❤❤❤

Fuck off. This is Music history.

How cool to be nerdy!😅

Very fortunately, I attended one of these concerts. The music was ingenious in concept and musicianship, and aesthetic experience unmatched!!!!!

Nice! Thanks for the video. It doesn't get much better 😂.

Jaco would have love to play with them❤

I've watched this video several times now, and loved it each time. Whoever had the idea of matching Manhattan Transfer up with Weather Report should have received an award of some kind. Maybe "Most Serendipitous Musical Match of the Decade". I'd vote for that.

奥が一番深い。とまらない。

I'm in heaven, man!!!

Sensational

I would have paid a high price indeed to have been fortunate enough to have seen this live. What a performance!!

Very tough to do it there. Hope your genitals weren’t hurt.

Good vibes, indeed! Thanks for the beautiful music and the moments of great pleasure.

Weren't they coked up? It is really fast.

Man who's playing the piano at 1:20 sounds terrible 😆

LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS!

Love Manhattan Transfer's version of this! Super cool!!!

without Jaco its not Birdland

AMAZING

Let's hear some love for the vocalese of the late, great Jon Hendricks.

いい、時代、ジャコの、死が、悲しい。

Los reyes del manbo

wow! What a combo!! Jjingghawmajzigill

Wonderful...

How can something be so cheesy and AMAZING at the same time?

Wayne looks about as enthralled as this shite is enthralling. Clue... it isn't. It's utterly wasteful. Cheapening of a better thing. Sad, really.

No se puede creer lo que se encuentra en KZfaq... WEATHER REPORT SI LLEGÓ A TOCAR BIRDLAND CON MANHATTAN TRANSFER... Qué bestia ❤... Es Weather en otro momento, ya en los 80'. Veo a Omar Hakeem batería (me encanta este baterista), al peruano Alex Acuña en la percusión, Víctor Bailey bajo, Wayne Shorter 🎷 DEP y Joe Zawinul 🎹🎹 el mega compositor de Birdland... Upside Down cantaba Diana Ross... Asi me dejó esto, ni había escuchado o leído de que tocaron juntos alguna vez ... Weather Transfer!! QUE TANKES!!

Time of my life all daze all nite such a lucky lad.😎👽

Unforgettable!

I met thèse fine gentlemen in a diner just outside Jacksonville many years ago. We talked for many minutes and I was impressed by their consumption of waffles in syrup. Very impressive.
