Yes!

DYKE & THE BLAZERS LIVE!

I loved Babi i hung with him and Jordan in London with the Vinos in the 90''s. Good times!!!

Oh man, I keep coming back to this piece, and I learn more each time. Got to hang with Will once surrounded by the other-best musicians, and I wish I'd have heard this when it happened, because that is where fusion was literally born. I'm wondering if it was a Hiram tribute? Loved him too. Real groove can be taxing & use up real energy, but even our love comes from that flaming nuclear star 🌟 right above us. Lol, sorry, the music touched me. Was great to see Ricky's solo and all the others, and thank you for creating this funk/music/love 💘 thing that picks everybody up.

that was really awesome, Thanks 🙂

I saw HB play guitar one night at Mickell’s with David Sanborn’s band. I’m pretty sure it was 1977. He sounded great with his beat up Strat and a Fender amp. The whole group was sensational. I also remember being impressed by Herb Bushler on electric bass. But you could tell that Sanborn was definitely a star in the making.

Thanks Paul. I love your love of music even though I didn't always get it in decades past. Thank you.

I just read he studied with Pat Matheny at college ...What Else can you say.. RIP Hiram and Lyle Mays two of the finest

❤️

Thank you sharing! Will Lee is a monster! RIP Hiram!

I so miss my friend. Babi Floyd was a very special person in my life. He was the kindest, most generous of souls that ever walked this earth. Taken from us way too soon. This was recorded after he was diagnosed with throat cancer and had gone through surgery. Which is why his voice sounds so rough. But the passion, the talent and the pure joy still shine through. I was so blessed to have known him and to have had him in my life. The world was a light, bright, positive place when Babi was in it. He really knew how to turn lemons into lemonade - always, no matter what. I've never known anyone like him.

I will neuer forget the first live-gig with Hiram, I heard. He played in the David Sanborn Group back in 1987. A phantastic gig with Hiram's outstanding guitar-playing. Later I heard him twice with his own group ... from another planet! Later I visited his website in order to check out his upcoming gigs and found out, that he had passed away. What a huge loss! May he rest in peace. ❤

CHARLEY DRAYTON ON DRUMS!!! THE ORIGINAL DRUMMER ON THE TRACK!!

I saw Hiram Bullock walking on the street from my taxi on the way home from the taping of Letterman. I yelled out "Hiram!" He looked, I said "good show!" He was good! I was fifteen.

He played the guitar solo on Dave Matthews-Space Oddity, which MF DOOM went on to sample. What a great lick.

Most dangerous band. Every night after the news, my sophomore year. R.I.P. Hiram Bullock.

Oh Hiram.

Paul was the weak one in that original letterman band. Hiram, Will, and Steve were the players. Paul was the Holiday Inn style player.

5:13 to abouts 5:18 i will forever be amazed at the epicness of how he finished that phrase. can we say bebop!

Ricky wrote this on Hiram’s debut album.

Beautiful! Hiram was astonishing.

Paul Shaffer and Hiram Bullock worked together on the album of Burt Bacharach Futures 1977. Great album of Burt

Yeah these cats did a very very nice job on this.Hiram would proud!!!!!

Hiram!!!!!!!!!

Good to see you jammin here Delmar!!!(rip)

Yesssssss!!!!!

I remember the very 1st time going to Mikells on a Tuesday night open mic with Gordon Edwards ... all kinds of every body were there ... all kinds of baddest musicians playing .... And I got up there just to play one of my favorite STUFF tunes , “Reflection Of Divine Love” on this old Gretch Guitaf I always had & played this’s days ... but just before , I was so intimidated because of all the great guys that were playing that night .... But I figured, lemme just get up there & just play & just enjoy myself ... just acting like I was just playing in my room or something .... Right about before the 1st or 2nd turn around in the song, Gordon Edwards just got up from the bar where he was sitting having a drink , and just turned his back & stopped the music ..... I was almost afraid but as I looked at everybody’s expressions .... and just watched him put a paper in my pocket ... He just yelled out .... call me ... and when you call just say “, The Guitarist that I like “ .. lol 🤗 Every body laughed .. And I just went back to playing and finishing the sing off with a more relaxed joy .... lol🤗 (But I just learned a bit better that lesson , of letting one’s little light shine no matter how great others are surrounding around you .... Just play your heart’s joy ... just for the joy you get out of it ... with no ego ... Just Let Your Joy Flow ... and be natural ... ) Joy will never mislead you if you just REJOICE in your labor & groove ... with no ego .... just ENJOY Yourself 🤗🙏🏽👍🏽 And though he was the smallest , Rudolf The Red Nose saved the day 🤗....

Happy Birthday to Jaco Pastorius (on December 1st!)

This is just great! Hiram was THE man for sure and to hear Paul’s candid conversation about Hiram is awesome. I was definitely a fan and follower of his on Late Night, and would tune in just to hear Hiram play!

A great tribute to Hiram. Such a tragic loss. Nick is superb player!!

This band was THE reason why I watched The David Letterman Show. Just to hear these guys was a treat within itself. Good stuff.😎

Hmm. That's two videos I've seen now where Lew changes mouthpieces midstream in the middle of a solo. He sounded fine to me on the first mouthpiece. I wonder where that came from. Was that a parduba double cup he switched to or something? Interesting.

I don't know if there is such a thing as "the best" guitar player ever but I do know that there was no better guitar player than Hiram Bullock. Ever.

A classic jam for sure

The ending on the original is cold the drums and that piano solo

As a bass player both of these guys are among my biggest influences. Yes there are many GREAT players out there but when it comes to the groove this a good as it gets. Both of these guys live it and play it. I've read interviews with both players and this what they preach. Darryl Jones said that this was the one of the main reasons he got the Rolling Stones gig.

THAT'S THE TICKET.......

Perfect Moment!

saw this drummer in japan , with Hiram Bollock , my mind was blown

they need two bassist to even try to sound like jaco

Okay, i had my doubts about Mike playin "in there" like Hiram on a Hiram original, but he absolutely played both in the spirit of Hiram and in the style of Hiram -not easy , and he made it sound and look easy ! BIG UPS !!

What a drummer...!!

Hiram would proud!

Dunno which I should like most........

DAMN!

Real music, real musicians.No BS

Check out Mohini Dey`s version of Teen Town. A child prodigy. She's surpassed many well seasoned pro's with her technique and own unique style at age 17. You won't be disappointed.

Charley Drayton a genuine class & groove
