Charlie Hunter and Carter McLean playing a day gig at a brewery? That's like walking into a local chess club meetup and finding Boris Spassky and Bobby Fischer going at it ...
It's more common than we think. Picture walking into a regular degular Pub in Oxford called the Eagle and Child, and there they are. CS Lewis and JRR Tolkein talking about dead languages, Beowulf and the weather.
I absolutely love the faraway looks that Charlie gets on his face when he plays. What a laid back, awesome, talented genius. I've never seen or heard of Carter McLean before but I now have someone to research because this drumming melted my face off! 27:20 - about 28:48 made me stop everything I was doing. What a badass!

Yup, and he's been doing it for a _long_ time. I'm just wondering why he's playing a brewery -- nothing against breweries; it just seems he'd be doing higher-profile gigs.
wow imagine just looking over in the corner to check out the amazing sounds, and it's friggin charlie hunter and carter mclean! what a great afternoon that must've been.
Love your channel dude...and I'm not even a guitar player. I'm not that sophisticated...I just know how to beat the shit outta shit with some sticks and shit. :-)
I watched it 3 times and still working sometimes I listen to it. You're great musicians, I hope I get the chance to watch it live one day. Also I'm a drummer, I really enjoyed your playing Carter. Awesome. Greetings from Turkey, please share more.
Literally an exceptional drummer who can play in a trio for 2 hours without having rehearsed and who at the end of each song concludes perfectly at the same time as the other musicians who had rehearsed.
Great to see/hear musicians just create and feed off each other....developes your ability to listen and thus, you will be a musician others will want to play with.
All of the genius and musicianship of this video has been praised in great detail. They're geniuses, I adore their style. I second all of the praise. That said, I want to know more about the drummer's Adidas sneaks. I want a pair.
@@erastusc4908 Ahhh, nope :D you're talking about _triple strokes._ It's still 16th notes, he just doesn't play the 'e' of each beat. I was talking about the dynamics, choosing to play hard on the '&' of the beat gives it a great funky vibe. Charlie sees that too. Now triplets would be what Carter plays at 17:19 ! Those are triplets
I really dig Charlies sense of time, always tapping his foot right on the beat, I’ll be playing with some cats that tap their foot all over the place and you could imagine their time because of that.
Does anybody know what the stick hack is that Carter uses starting at around @9:05? Looks like a tube or pen casing attached to the end of a Questlove sig stick. Killer sound.
David Arbelaez Lol no cause if I did then I expect everybody to be Charlie. He uses 100 and peaks at 120 at which point he needs a drum solo or dialogue
@David Arbelaez We use maybe 70% maximum of our brains. we do not mobilize all our cerebral capacities at the same time. Depending on the activity carried out, different areas of the organ will be more or less solicited: vision, understanding of language, calculation, immediate and long-term memory, coordination of gestures, etc.
@@lieutenantcolumbo114 the myth that we don’t use the full capacity of our brain is a myth based off of awful medieval science. Obviously all parts and pathways aren’t firing off at once, but to say we can’t “unlock some secret potential” of the brain is super lame to be spreading around
Great video. Guitar went out of tune a few times during Jealous guy but Charlie kept on playing regardless. He didn't seem to let it get to him. It's almost as if if tried to avoid the top string because he knew it was going out of tune. A sign of a true professional. And he didn't lose a beat! Great sense of rhythm. Cheers, Joe
Nice one Joe! The high E string was clearly flat during Jealous Guy. Charlie grimaced (more than normal) and on the third run of that phrase, he tuned the string up a bit.
@@dmljones2550 Charlie totally knew the lick. Pretty common for jazz guys to do off the cuff quotes of songs they love. And at 8:15 they're jamming John Lennon's "Jealous Guy" so you know Charlie's a Beatles fan.
Charlie came up in a band called TJ Kirk that stood for Thelonious Monk, James Brown, and Rashaan Roland Kirk. They played a fusion of jazz, blues, funk, rock, and even what seems like hip hop at times. Charlie definitely can't be placed in one genre.

Harry Joiner hmmm aint both dead?
Exactement how i feel🎉
Has been known to happen
That's when musical magic is made. I've seen and been apart of some that were the best ever played live.
It's more common than we think. Picture walking into a regular degular Pub in Oxford called the Eagle and Child, and there they are. CS Lewis and JRR Tolkein talking about dead languages, Beowulf and the weather.
I want a pair of brains like Charlie’s.
Charlie Hunters smile is contagious happiest man just rocking the guitar....His playing is absolutely incredible!!
I've been playing guitar for 61 years now. and I have never thought of that idea, brilliant.
38:34 my feeble human brain cannot fully comprehend the majesty of these two minutes
I love two piece bands! Especially when it’s musicians of this caliber. So smooth, so dynamic, so superb!
If you close your eyes, it’s a three piece
I absolutely love the faraway looks that Charlie gets on his face when he plays. What a laid back, awesome, talented genius.

@@DaveZula thank you!!
This is my favorite live music video on RUclips of all time.
These guys make something that is incredibly difficult look easy -- it's not. Both master musicians. Thanks for posting.
Two incredible musicians playing off of each other in an intimate setting. These are the best shows to see.
Their clever creativity seems boundless. And they don't get boring.
I'm new to Charlie Hunter. These guys are amazing. Is Charlie playing the bass and guitar and the same time? Nuts
Yup!
Yup, and he's been doing it for a _long_ time. I'm just wondering why he's playing a brewery -- nothing against breweries; it just seems he'd be doing higher-profile gigs.
@@BassByTheBay I guess it’s just because he can, omg this is so good
@@BassByTheBay jazz gigs for ya
Err, yeah. It’s no big deal. You just play guitar like you normally do, then underneath that you play bass using your second brain.
wow imagine just looking over in the corner to check out the amazing sounds, and it's friggin charlie hunter and carter mclean! what a great afternoon that must've been.
Awesome!
Hahaha, exactly, thank you Michael for getting me here
Love your channel dude...and I'm not even a guitar player. I'm not that sophisticated...I just know how to beat the shit outta shit with some sticks and shit. :-)
I'm new to the Charlie Hunter party and i'm pissed i'm late. So damn good. Gotta make up for lost time.
Check out his Natty Dread marley album..opening track is killer
I’ve been checking out live shows on ReListen and YT and this show is my favorite.
I watched it 3 times and still working sometimes I listen to it. You're great musicians, I hope I get the chance to watch it live one day. Also I'm a drummer, I really enjoyed your playing Carter. Awesome. Greetings from Turkey, please share more.

So funny seeing Carter’s kit slowly but surely creeping up towards Charlie during the whole set :’)
That's why the drummers chair should be on his carpet too. ;)
@@NoBody6662 1:09:20-1:09:40 😅1:16:00-1:16:10
The groove is ridiculous. All I want to do is sit down and rock back and forth in total contentment.
I love these full length concerts so much. Thank you for posting these.
Great to see/hear musicians just create and feed off each other....developes your ability to listen and thus, you will be a musician others will want to play with.
isn't it great to find a new favourite something?
One must see Charlie Hunter live prior to leaving this short journey called life.
This is great love the energy and the simplicity of the setting. Please show this to your kids 😁
How do they make it look so easy?! Legends, the both of them. Thank you for uploading.
incredible drummer!
Skipped a bit back and forth through the video, fun to see how the bassdrum moved further forward during the show.
Great footage, thanks!
two incredible musicians
Incredible - thx for the upload
Love that chortle when they finish up the first tune. You had to have known that it was going to be a great day.
So much substance! Amazing dynamics and natural intuitive flow.
Carter could make a nice 6 ingredient omelette while keeping the beat going.
I love the sound of base drum!
I love so much.
Nothing short of amazing

CH & CM are music graduates. No wonder they are superb in what they do. This is fire!
So great bros
This is absolutely incredible. Thanks for the upload!
One word: bravo! 😀
I can't describe the greatness of what he does with the hi-hats at 1:28:52.
Triplets?

Love this. Thanks for posting these gems mkdevo!
Simply amazing, THANK YOU for this!
You are the master of groove, time and taste. I genuflect in your presence.
Man, I haven't sat in a room and just listened to some good 12 bar blues since I was a little kid. This was so excellent, thank you!
So good. Charlie is a beast on the strings. McClean is a groove master percussionist. 🔥
This is all just so good
Wow ... Awesome .. Love the hybrid guitar & style
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Pure joy.....
Ah! Thanks for posting this 😀
That kick sounds incredible
The whole kit!
That's literally one mile from my house, how did I not know about this? Pretty New England area Ridgefield.
Just great...
This is sooo great! Thank you! 👍👍👍
Brilliant.
Speechless...
"The Amazing Duo"
So tight!
Holy shit this is amazing
Great music and musicians
I love the face reflected on CH's gtr @ before and after 21:00 !
I don’t want to set the world on fire rendition was fantastic.
6:18 his fingers have total independence, I can’t even imagine how difficult that is to play.
Which one
Always fascinated with musicians that attempt to pull double duty playing rhythm and lead parts
this is no attempt sir
とても素晴らしい！是非日本でもライブやってほしい！
Pure gold:)
1:09:21 is the jam I come back to once a month.
I hope they enjoy this one hundred years because I know they sold their souls to play like that.
charlie's bass sounds like an alien that has a lot to say, it's wonderful
Just Chilling, what you gonna do now? I don't know, but what sonever it is, it gotta ti be funky.
Get it Ernest… 👍😎👊
Can someone post the tracklist? Or just tell me which song is playing at 25:00
:) 31:36 "sing it!" "I'm trying" so funny and so cool :)
Sooo nice! I’m hooked, I want that guitar! (or thing!)
André Cajeron Novax Guitars👍🏼

Noice! thanks for upload!
How did I just happen find this video? One of my favorite drummers and one of my favorite hybrid-pluckers playing together live?! I'm in...sa-weet!
Flawless and 🌞👍😎🤘
yesssssssaaaaa
Dang, I love this stuff!
Is that the world's most beautiful sunset in the background?
Song at 57:48 - How You Gonna Keep Em
Thanks for the upload! Great concert!
Does anyone know if Jack Pearson and Charlie have played together? This is such a fun and great set!
Love the 36:20 Wishing Well Terrence Trent Darby cover. Super Dope!!!!
9:06 - love how you turned on the snares with the beat
Does anybody know what the stick hack is that Carter uses starting at around @9:05? Looks like a tube or pen casing attached to the end of a Questlove sig stick. Killer sound.
@carter mclean I would also love to know, sounds ace!
Anyone figure this out? Love it.
@@corysnider6851 Headhunters Ninja tips sticks
This is amazing to jam to. Try it as a backing track :D
Figured out the song at minute 35 that they are covering. Wishing well by Terence Trent D'arby! Been trying to figure this out for over a week!
such a dope cover!!!
wow.
still love it!!
That D'Angelo cover at 1:13:20!
pure butter
He actually played on the song! Definitely so cool to see his own take on it
He seems to be using more than 100% of his brain at all times ... I can't dis
And if you think about it - his face does look like it's on some sort of science experiment all with tubes and wires attached all over.
Do you dis those who aren’t using 100% of their brain? 😉

@6:12 - Did I hear a phrase from "I feel fine" by The Beatles?
Yes but I think it was unintentional.

nicholas valcke give a listen to john scofield or martin, medesky& wood, in the same side of bluesy funk.
