Two more videos hit the website today.
- Funky Meters - enough said, go take a gander…
- Super Jam - watching this one now featuring Karl Denson on sax, Ivan Neville on keys, Stanton Moore on drums and a host of others.
I guess they are having a bit of rough seas, so cameras are jiggling around and not providing the best atmosphere for filming. Something is better than nothing in my opinion….
