What an unbelievable concert with the classic Yellowjackets lineup of Russell Ferrante, Jimmy Halip, William Kennedy and Marc Russo at the top of their game delivering quite possibly their greatest music ever. It doesn't get any better than this. I love it!

Most of us, i would imagine, have loved these guys for so long. Hearing this early music of theirs just delights me.... It is so melodic and accessible and skillful and joyous! Dang-They sound GREAT!

Im a musician from South Africa and i have listened to a lot of live shows on youtube,but this one had me to tears. To me personally this is the best I've ever seen from the YJ. And it's the 1st time watching this performance. Thank you so much for uploading this video.

Jimmy's solo on "One Family" is so stunningly well placed! It doesn't struggle against the intent of the song, it actually helps the song make a statement that would have been lost without its inclusion. This is genius!

I could cry when I hear older Jackets with Marc on horn.... NO COMPARISON....Mintier was a long time label mate buried.....like a water boy.. He made his connections to allow him to help get gigs overseas for years. ..gigs equal concert money. It also contributed to Jimmy leaving, too much travel, lower music quality.
