Mononeon is the Modern day musical Messiah as far as I'm concerned. Prince knew what was up (may he rest in peace) and if its good enough for him, it's good enough for me. As for Cory, as if he wasn't the Baddest keys dudes I've seen for years, I find out at this very moment that he can belt out strong vocals too! I constantly get frustrated by those who moan about there being no good music anymore when this is in front of their noses. Makes me think that when people say that maybe they haven't even bothered to look. As far as I'm concerned, if you haven't even tried to look into the unknown then you shouldn't be allowed to comment on what you 'know'. The great swindle of the commercial music industry is that they know people are mainly too lazy to delve into something they don't know and claim the reason they do this is because everything is bad. Refreshing to see that that there are still many out there who refuse to be sheep and continue to rep good fresh new music even if other supposed 'experts' tell them not to bother.
I’m just going to say this again: I was there, guy all the way up front on the left under Cory’s B3 wearing a light blue rain jacket with the hood up. Everyone upfront was losing their minds. It was a free show and it had and was raining. But but everyone around me knew who Cory was and some were there just for Mononeon. It was an amazing show, electric and the groove was heavy. So much so that I’m looking for it all these years later.
Hehe - been watching through the first 2 tracks - I finally managed to spot you towards the end of the 2nd one, weaving and bobbing near the front. :) Yeah you had a great spot there.
Cory Henry and the funk Apostles or the truth first time listening to them along with mono Neon who now is doing his thing world wide 5 years ago he's risen to fame Cory Henry is phenomenal Keyboardist and vocalist yes sir and his background singers is the bomb❤
Cory's dope, he knows how to sing, but he's not careful enough to maintain all his notes... Perhaps he really doesn't care. Maybe all that genius requires singular focus. We can't have it all.🤣🤷🏾♂️
Mononeon's comping deepens the pocket to such an extent it's crazy. Seen him live last week in Paris and I'm not ashamed to say I cried days after thinking about that experience. Otherwordly performance.

what a heavenly moment has been captured here. Make MUSIC not war.
My favorite part is when they slowly build the Groove from 34:29 !!! I'm Digging the Music! And Also love the cinematography (color of their clothes, Trees in the background and occasionally truck or bus 🚌 passing by, and the Blue & White sign " To West 66") The video Is so crisp and clean !!!
Rallypojken If not that, he is for sure one of the greatest of our days. At this concert he was replacing Sharay Reed that says something about the two bassists.
There are literally thousands of genius young creative musicians on youtube and soundcloud alone, in jazz and funk, other styles too. it's not only about talent but never has the talent been so extreme and so visible.
Gotta keep in mind as an audience member that you'll need to express your enjoyment of the music demonstratively enough to please the youtube commenters.
@@charliecampbell6851 Hi there, Yea absolutely, I'm a bass player myself and a fan of Mononeon. My response was aimed at sabi who commented with a troll esque statement. I was attempting to create a sarcastic retort. I think I failed.
“LIFE’s GOING NOWHERE ….” (“All is Vanity ‘ Vexation of Spirit …” - (see - Ecclesiastes … ) But there is HOPE available.. just as long as one give Hope a chance for Faith … AMEN 🙏🏽
Surely this has to be at Route 66 ;-) The interlude with the guitar player!!! is great not to forget about all members of the band for sure. Great stuff! And Mono is taking the thing to the bare bones ;-) Thnx for posting the whole gig.
I have to say. I was not a fan of Cory singing at first. But his improvement is incredible! It’s much more enjoyable for me now! (I always loved his playing though, he’s seemingly untouchable and extremely unique in that aspect... Heck In every aspect!) God bless! Shalom
I discovered this video one year ago and I have to watch it like 3 times a week - even if it's mono (ah, well not stereo I mean). "Life's going nowhere..."
How about merging Ghost-Note and Funk Apostles, record a big double album with MonoNeon, Cory Henry and these girls all doing lead vocals on different tracks, then do a big tour, like a 21st Century P-Funk/Earth Wind & Fire
In case you wanna watch this without audio for some reason, the singer with the rolling stones t shirt is a great indicator for when mononeon does something great
I was expecting to see Sharay Reed on bass at this concert in VA but Cory had an amazing surprise for us all, MonoNeon on bass. What amazing talent all these guys have. The crowd dull af!
Does the cameraman have something against bright colours or does he have something against the genius MonoNeon in particular? He tried so hard to avoid filming him. the MonoNeon you've sold me on using the thumb 👍. So funkily beautiful. I didn't think anyone could fit in so well as the supreme Sharay Reed, but man you've done an incredible job.
Cameramen in general (and there are at least 3 cameras here) don't spend concentrate a lot, if at all, on the bassist. As a musician and cameraman, I notice it all the time. Overall, the whole capture job is not very sharp IMHO. Washed-out colors, weird, shaky movements on close-ups, and the use of the fade-in / fade-out transition constantly is like using trash-can ending and counting 4's all the time throughout a set - it shows you're not tight. That's not how you cut a live show. Really bad cinematography here... but, hey, what can we do... closing our eyes I guess ;) Still a shame, what an amazing band!! I mean, really, showing the drummer adjusting his stuff while the backing singers are on fire? Common. Just stay on the damn choir. You don't have to cut all the time. Just like a bad musician fill in every 2 or 4 bars ;)
@@jas_bataille thanks for the expert opinion! Perhaps he didn't realise this bass player is a very special one. Well the band are all amazing. If you've not seen it check out the NAMM video of the amazing chemistry and gospel funk of Cory Henry and the Funk Apostle Nick Semrad
I'm a bassplayer and I'm tempted to form a {Bassplayers Matter} movenment. The disrepect bassplayers get in many of these bands are ridiculous especially when playing for a "rock" audience or "rock" cameraman
Where's the 2nd keyboard player ? I thought his supportive playing was quite essential during the Tiny Desk set. Also, the drummer didn't really seem to be interested in playing beyond call of duty.
Hiring soulless camera men or head cue person like this or whoever made the final cut on scenes can completely ruin a viewing experience all they had to do was zoom in on this man's fingers a few times. FOr future reference dedicate one cam main focus for MUSICIANS fingers and drummer feet. Thanks for sharing this amazing music!
I clicked the video because of Mononeon…I stayed because of the beautiful background singers!
yes, and yes, but the main singer too!
Tiffany Stevenson and Denise Stoudmire on vocals
They make this song!🔥
The best bass players are found playing in church ... I speak from experience . Detroit church bass players . I bow to them .
Berklee stand up
Came for MonoNeon, stayed for... the whole thing, really
same in my case. Furthemore are good songs, witch very odd on thesse days...
Me too.👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Wow, spot on and well said!
the same experts who've never played a lick in their life :)
Open heart, open mind
prweachhhhh well the industry focus on the poptart stuff but there izzz still tons of goood music out there
💯
Mono’s groove is as deep as the Pacific Ocean

ppl sleep on Cory & his singing. This mans came from church. Keep up the greatness g
He’s getting better lol

Those singers, I'm in love. The band, I'm in love. The Groove, I'm in love. MonoNeon, say no more!
This is my inspiration for the day ...
What a great band. Love the vocals and all the musicians are super. Big fan of Mono!
Cory Henry is a hell of a musician.
CANT BELIEVE I HAVE ONLY JUST NOW DISCOVERED THIS VIDEO!!
this is amazing.
The guitarist has nice crazy interpretation of his music. And I love how his picked his convo
This broo play guitar with Nirvana t-shirt makes me smile 😊
This is hot as hell!!! Loving it!! Mono, you's a bad man with that bass!!!!!
My favorite part is when they slowly build the Groove from 34:29 !!!
I'm Digging the Music!
And Also love the cinematography (color of their clothes,
Trees in the background and occasionally truck or bus 🚌 passing by,
and the Blue & White sign " To West 66") The video Is so crisp and clean !!!
MonoN is probably the best player out there. Always the best playing in the actual context. And the badest fills in the history of the electric bass!
not sure, i think he is at the same level as Cory, we can just talk about who we like more.. thats all we can say
Its two musical genius on the stage. Corey can probably get on every instrument on the stage and wear it out. Neon very tasteful.
Rallypojken
If not that, he is for sure one of the greatest of our days.
At this concert he was replacing Sharay Reed that says something about the two bassists.
are u sure ??
Good enough to tour with Prince.
MonoNeon is the Funk Master ...and the girls on too cold...great band all together !!!
I though this kind of musicians doesn't exist any more.. great band
There are literally thousands of genius young creative musicians on youtube and soundcloud alone, in jazz and funk, other styles too. it's not only about talent but never has the talent been so extreme and so visible.
Very proud to be a Bassist
I love tha mix80s/early 90s 2018 sound they created.. awesome!
That band is too good for that audience.
FACTS. They have no clue
Exactly, where's the crowd participation.
Facts lol
They ain't got the funk
Gotta keep in mind as an audience member that you'll need to express your enjoyment of the music demonstratively enough to please the youtube commenters.
27:35 It's a crime no one in the audience understood how sick that was. Straight up stunned the drummer.
Lol harmonics are ez af
@@TampaSkwad Lol so is major scale, Minor scale, penatonic scale, arpreggios, 3rds, 5ths, harmonic minor all ez af Whats Your point?
@@datanoster harmonics are a technique on bass and guitar. Just know that Mono is doing something EXTREMELY difficult. Absolutely insane.
@@charliecampbell6851 Hi there, Yea absolutely, I'm a bass player myself and a fan of Mononeon. My response was aimed at sabi who commented with a troll esque statement. I was attempting to create a sarcastic retort. I think I failed.
The bass playing throught this is absolutely sublime. Just incredible.
Guitarist is plays like Terje Rypahl👍 Band is so good.Thank you✌💓
Is that Adam Agati on guitar?... saw him with Marcus Miller a few years ago, Cory has a beast band. The crowd was weak.
Thriller. Total Love, this is too good!!!
Mono Neon is something else.
I am absolutely amazed~great concert~excellent choreography, fantastic show!
The top of the groove on the first tune made me laugh out loud. So, damn good!!! And it just continued to get better. My day is set to 'GO'!
“LIFE’s GOING NOWHERE ….”

Vanity ‘ Vexation of Spirit …” - (see -
Ecclesiastes … )
But there is HOPE
available.. just as long as one give Hope a chance for Faith … AMEN 🙏🏽
HAPPY MERORIAL DAY 2020 TO ALL...EVERYBODY HERE DID A SPECTACULAR JOB....From The SINGER'S...THE BAND...THE FANS...& OF COURSE MR.CORY HIMSELF💜💜💜✔💯🙏.
Cory's voice is getting better and better each day, awesome !
Tiffany Stevenson and Denise Stoudmire are too good for that audience. Prince would have hired them SUPER FAST
Surely this has to be at Route 66 ;-)
The interlude with the guitar player!!! is great not to forget about all members of the band for sure. Great stuff! And Mono is taking the thing to the bare bones ;-)
Thnx for posting the whole gig.
Guitarist got a lot in the tank… Comp chording is killer… tasty fills.. want to hear him cut loose!
*This is a vibe right here.*
Cory Henry is a prodigious keyboardist; but he's surprisingly a much better singer than I expected. And 43:42...
my man
What a fantastic bassist...!
I have to say. I was not a fan of Cory singing at first. But his improvement is incredible! It’s much more enjoyable for me now! (I always loved his playing though, he’s seemingly untouchable and extremely unique in that aspect... Heck In every aspect!)

" Talk about some good music " this is where you find it, then again you don't have to look for it just open up your ears and listen.....
I discovered this video one year ago and I have to watch it like 3 times a week - even if it's mono (ah, well not stereo I mean). "Life's going nowhere..."
Mono reminds me of a modern day Stanley Clark 🎸🖤
How about merging Ghost-Note and Funk Apostles, record a big double album with MonoNeon, Cory Henry and these girls all doing lead vocals on different tracks, then do a big tour, like a 21st Century P-Funk/Earth Wind & Fire
those singers are crazy stuff.....maravilloso
still got this one on repeat
El Mono Neón "agarró" prestigio "bien cañon" al ponerse al lado del gran Cory Henry jejeje. Gran presentación!
lo cogió todo cuando trabajó con Prince...
Es Corey el que está tocando con Mononeon...y el guitarrista de M Miller y esas cantantes impresionantes
CoryNeon.. LA MEILLEURE COMBINAISON!!!
Great Performance!!! Oh, that girls vocal :)
I'm catching strong Spirit of Sly and The Family Stone vibes here !!!!!
Stout is pleasing in every way....visually & vocally
These are the heroes we need!
Thanks so much for posting this for us. Love and appreciation from NYC.
In case you wanna watch this without audio for some reason, the singer with the rolling stones t shirt is a great indicator for when mononeon does something great
That camera on a stick popping from nowhere, tho. lmao.
They are great!
Positive ,mind enriching music.
I'm really an alcoholic and feel this..❤ I'll be back on set soon😢
Enjoyed this so much
The best combo band 😊 Mononeon top!
PHUN-KEEE AS CRAP!!! Great band. Life music!
Straight funky jamming
13:39 Mono you're a beast!!!
I was expecting to see Sharay Reed on bass at this concert in VA but Cory had an amazing surprise for us all, MonoNeon on bass. What amazing talent all these guys have.
The crowd dull af!
Lotsa a Jesus Loving Low toners.. and Cory to!
Mono draws me to this, good line up
The torch has been passed on x
Cory & MoNo's god player from heaven!!

Shirt in purple. I love it. Printed on both sides so I can advertise for you my Funk brother!!
Bassist got the best view of the best seat in the house.
And getting a nice back massage from the bass cab behind him =]
In a way this reminds me of George Duke and his fantastic band end of the seventies......
Amazing!!!
Oh here we go 2nd tune in, Mono's bringin it!
What an incredible sound, mood, passion… the perfect circle, sa uncle pat says….
This is just lovely, innit ?
Super voice and music
that feel between mono and the drums is insane 26 mins in, filthy
That Cory Henry Logo looks like a campaign bumper sticker.

beatz04 the balance is there
Mono is with the funk apostles or just for this concert?
