And I thought....
And I thought real soul and funk would never been shown on TV anymore but when I saw this live gig with Prince, Beyonce and my personoal hero Maceo Parker on saxophon and I was proven wrong.

Re: And I thought....
Wow! I'd forgotton just how great the Purple One was... fantastic.
 He's underrated as a guitarist. Was that definitely Maceo? - should have made more of him. I saw Fred Wesley and the JBs about 20 years ago and they blew me away. Funky as hell!

Re: And I thought....
Yeas its Maceo with Candy Dulfer and Fred Boyer (ex-Parliament-member and now in Maceo's band).
I've seen Fred Wesley with Pee Wee Ellis about 4 years ago. Well and Maceo plays every year in Hamburg or Berlin, so I don't know how often I've seen him. He's the greatest. The first time I saw him he said that yesterday he had become 60 than he played, sang and danced for about 3 hours plus 1 1/2 encore. I was killed and couldn't move anymore, just too much dancing and he said that now he is going to a forfree jamsession in an other club. I hope I'll be that fit when I'm 60.

Re: And I thought....
By the way. Here are some great concertclips by Maceo. The first one is with Fred Wesley and the second one is with his new lineup. They really rock but a movieclp can't give you the real maceo-feeling when you actuely see him life.

Re: And I thought....
That's one hell of a band!
I've lost count of how much Pee-Wee, Fred and Maceo stuff I have. Also been listening to a lot of Candy Dulfer. I uploaded a video there a few days ago you might like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRpZb3XPrXw Has anyone got the DVD "My First Name is Maceo"? I bought it, and it's great! Fred Wesley does "House Party", and the special guest band is the Rebirth Brass Band. I have some good CDs of theirs too: The JB's Reunion - Bring the Funk on Down Pee-Wee, Fred and Maceo - The JB Horns Fred Wesley - Wuda Cuda Shuda I always love good funk

Prince's guitar solo sounds great.
