This is a great jam session, Aaron Mills is an underrated funk bassist, he has great skills like Bootsy Collins but never got the recognition Bootsy had gotten for being a funk bass player.
Saw Cameo several times back in the 80's and they were a band that put on a full show. First time I saw them, they opened the show for 3 other groups and as the opening act, they stole the whole show. When they came back a year later, they were the headliners. Anthony Lockett played lead guitar and would climb out of a coffin playing a funky blues song. Aaron Mills solos were legendary! One of the best RnB/Funk bands ever! Aaron Mills, Larry Blackman, Tomi Jenkins, Charlie Singelton, Nathan Leftenant, Gregory Johnson, Anthony Lockett, Wayne Cooper, Jeryl Bright.
A Great Rhythm Section, But Shows The Importance of Having a Person That Can Sing Lead, and Entertain. Great Thing to Realize That You Have to Play to Your Strengths, and Allow Others to Do The Same. That Is The Best Way to Success.
The best funk I've ever heard in my life, this gets anyone's batteries going. Please keep doing sessions like these. Of all his videos, this one is by far the best. With this I began to get up every day with the courage to continue fighting. Thanks for your magic guys
Will never forget when AARON TOOK ME TO MY FIRST MUSIC AWARD SHOW IN NEW YORK I WAS LIKE A KID AND A CANDY FACTORY AARON MILLS TO ME IN THE STUDIO TO RECORD ON MY FIRST PROFESSIONAL SINGLE WHICH WAS CALLED AT THAT TIME GO-GO ON SUGAR HILL RECORDS THIS GUY ALWAYS REACHED BACK AND GOT A MUSICIAN OR VOCALIST AND GAVE THEM A CHANCE TO GROW THANK YOU AARON MILLS MY MENTOR MY BROTHER MY FRIEND
Cat's are tight. Saw Aaron with Cameo back in the nineties at Kimball's East in Emeryville Ca. Venue is closed now but it was the place to be for our 70's and 80's bands at the time. You know how a band starts to hit that musical bone within and you really start to feel that groove? Aaron kinda led that charge that night. And he and the band knew it too! Cocky azz sons a bitches. Said with much respect.
Awesome. ! great Funk as in the best times.I wish more bands like that regrow again and come back the good times. Go ahead Aaron and company. Today you have no competitors doing this great music. Out there they don't know how to do it. !
Ok now I've got it. After listening to this a few times it reminds me of groove train and there's s piece in here that also reminds me of the bridge from the song jungle boogie.
Aaron Mills is soooooo underrated as a bassist!!!!! His sense of groove and pocket is impeccable!!! He has serious chops but never over-plays!!!
I ENJOYED PLAYING KEYBOARDS ON THIS SESSION!! TRULY A FUN & FUNKY TIME. GOD BLESS MY BROTHERS!!
I really enjoyed watching you all play - very, very impressive. You're all so talented.
Good job!

I'm truly inspired, I want to jam just like y'all do .. takes me back to being obsessed watching the bands play live in church as a kid
Aaron's Bass lines were what made Cameo so great in the early 80s. I would buy an album of this jam session in a NY minute!
It's been 7 years since this video was posted and I keep coming back to it. PURE FUNK ! ! !

The funk is thick, Aaron Mills rocking African royality king gear and the band holding it down
Yup!! Tha funk is sure as hell thick and real thick too. Got me making that face because it's so stank.
Aaron Mills, a former pupil of the late great legendary Donald Byrd. When you're mentored by the greats, your abilities are multiplied.
This is the kind of band I want to be in.
The bass behind that Cameo Funk !!!
Some of the funkiest music I've heard in a while. This brothers are locked in tight.
The essence of classic funk, in the pocket and tight. Thank you Aaron.
