I love seeing Jesse. Criminally slept on. That crowd was feeling it. Okay so this is his best backing band to date. No question. Excellent line up. I need to watch this documentary again. This isn't relic music - this is just good music. May not be the popular choice but I'm glad he did it. If we were there we'd be seeing the big picture on this one.

If they bring a full D'angelo show to the stage with that line up?
Forget about it. Funky and tight.
Forget the formulas, rules, case studies and just all around arm chair philosophical discussion. That alone is anti-funk lol. If anyone has a problem - they should do better. That simple. Now that I have seen the entire documentary and most of the performance of what hasn't been edited down, I hate I missed that. He got it in. I for one enjoyed it - great show. That's two really great well documented performances kudos to D'angelo, Quest, Posyer, Jesse & co. Yep.

You hit the nail on the head here. I love D' to death, but he does stick VERY close to the originals when he covers. In some respects, it's nice. In other respects, I'd like to hear a REALLY heavy, innovative approach to a classic. He shines best doing his own material, because it's not easy to set up comparisons to other performers or so.

'always in my hair' and 'cruisin' -and even 'feel like makin love' to some extent- are solid covers. songs he made his own.
'bathroom window' is just live karaoke to me. that goes for pretty much the whole bonnaroo performance if you ask me.
his version of 'let me have it all' during the brooklyn bowl gig, not to mention 'really love', that shit makes me smile and long for a new, proper release...

why don't you post up something that is FUNKY...
Prince is doing a good share of Vegas funk in his shows now.....I seen it...it's cool..but he's not even as funky as himself anymore..
taking digs at new artists who are doing their thing doesn't make Prince look any better...you should know that...it only makes you look like the idiot who is getting his posts locked on his 5th screen name..
change the name..the game stays the same... you don't even know shit about Prince's music...lol. just becasue you got a replica shiny Purple Prince trenchcoat doesn't mean you know about prince..
like I said..you look like a fool little x...
I remember when the Rainbow Children came out you said that "This is what Gospel should sound like"..

I like plenty of new working artist.
However, the artist video you posted was not a good take of what you intended: something funky
Hey, I give two fucks bro, go cry about it.

but I do know this that video you posted not as funky as you led to believe

in that he fronts as a lounge cover act of R&B from the past and yet he is cool with being in that David Allen Grier character of sayingg I got a song, you want to hear, hear it goes.
