Japan always had a very strong music-caring culture; japanese versions of SACDs were among the most valuable and looked after and I'm talking about western rock/pop/blues artists from Dire Straits to Santana. The same interest is displayed here: these young and beautiful ladies are making sure the jazz/blues/funk spirit is kept alive and kicking, with all the benefits of 21st century technologies.
This is the pure definition of "What is the UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE of PLANET EARTH?" ......MUSIC, MUSIC & MUSIC!!! THIS HERE RENDITION of AWB's "PICK UP THE PIECES" was STRAIGHT-UP INSAAAANE!!! I Luv'd ever second of this INCREDIBLE, DYNAMIC & AWESOME performance put forth here!!! They HORNS....omg...them HORNS were freakin' GREAT!!! From the sweet tones put forth by the soprano saxist, the alto saxist's scale climbs & the tenor on the far right's beautiful rhythmic & staccato play was intense & soooo enjoyable! Bassist carried the bottom in sync adding that right interplay with the drummer's syncopatic bass pedal & snare play hits & rolls............& lets not forget the rhythm guitarist & keyboardist adding that right amount of "spice and flavor" to the overall perf. I AM SOLD & NOW A SUBSCRIBER /FOLLOWER for you guys are FANTASTIC!!! I don't see ASIAN WOMEN MUSICIANS, I SEE & HEAR AN ABSOLUTE TEAM OF HI'LY TALENTED ARTISTS, that I HOPE 1 DAY will schedule a performance in NYC - cause I'll BE THERE ! From 1 to 5 STAR rating?....I GIVE YOU GUYS 11 STARS!!!! Thank you for this FABULOUS Performance! THANK YOU to the "JAZZ MARVEL AVENGERS"!!!!
This classic never gets old! It keeps rocking with that same rythym that got my dancing shoes going many years ago when I was young lad flirting with ladies. Oh such great times.
Stumbled across these gals and I so fricken enjoyed them playing this AWB gem. Every one of them is so talented but what hooked me was in watching them play, they all so enjoyed the music..what a vibe. Carry on….
I don't know if anybody else noticed how much fun the guitar player was having but man is she cute and she's having the time of her life not to mention that extraordinary drummer what a great band
If you're a true fan of The AWB and "Pick Up the Pieces" like I am, if you haven't already, check out this version from "Live From Daryl's House" w/ original AWB member Alan Gorrie and crank it up! Very funky. ruclips.net/video/DvWvzRHDYg8/видео.html
While this tune is a great standard and this band's rendition is commendable ... One would be hard, hard pressed to imagine 1973 AWB headlining a tune from 1923 ...
This is phenomenal. The credits state that this is a Candy Dulfer cover but: "Pick Up the Pieces" is a song by the Average White Band from their second album, AWB. On the single, songwriting credit was given to founding member and saxophonist Roger Ball and guitarist Hamish Stuart individually and the entire band collectively."
YES, this was a huge album in the 70's, it was the 'good' part of Disco, but also the Jazz/Fusion scene at that time. Good Times, music was SO varied and great.
No kidding, one of the best renditions of this great song. Love the pace and energy, not to mention the individual skill and brilliant teamwork. I hope you can keep this group together for a very long time. Excellent chemistry!
What I want for Christmas 2023: The DVD "The Jazz Avengers Live at Blues Alley Japan". Whatever label these ladies record for: make it happen !!!! We are ALL waiting !!!!
Wow. This is the best I have ever heard this song played. Even uptempo, it just grooves so nicely. All the performers' solos are effortless when they play. The joyful energy and smiles of the guitarist and tenor sax player reminds me of Shinobu Kawashima. And as always, Senri is at the top of her game, and another excellent solo from Juna.
rehearsal, instrument repair or tune up, equipment storage, more rehearsal, acknowledging a player with a specific gift and agreeing as a group to showcase it, somebody had to write the chart, transportation rental, agreement as a group on a set list, that is A LOT of dedicated work. Like 👍
These ladies played this tune very well. Nice arrangement as well. And as a drummer I enjoyed this drumming lady most. She's got virtuosity but is still musical. And I love the way her kit sounds. Wow! 👏👏 Kind regards and compliments from a Dutch drummer 🥁
I’m not much for covers of songs already done, but what you’ve done with this, exceptional! Love the modulations. Love the nice I - IV groove in the middle. Love the four saxes. Very, very well done.
Wow! Raw talent! At first I thought the soprano was #1, but by the end, with multi solo, realized everyone of them is a #1 talent, even the tenor, which takes big air for that small frame.
😍 I can't stop playing this video. Love this song and Jazz Avengers have the best version. Plus they are all so classy and talented 💪. Ever do any Chicago covers?

Just when you thought you had seen it all!!! OMG
My heart belongs to the drummer. She's terrific!
She's Miss Senri Kawaguchi, Mr.
then I discovered Kanade Sato....
I love Juna.
Senri, the lady with a smile that could light up Times Square
As a pro drummer, I say yes, she's got it.
Playing a song written before any of them were born and doing so well. I love how Chizuru always looks like she's having so much fun. Well done all!
ジャズおばあさん軍団ですよね。
JAMAICA SAYS' YEAH, MON 😂 YEAH !!! Awesome sauce dat !!! 💕♥️♥️♥️

Hello Japan 🇯🇵

The sound/audio lady has done a more than fabulous job for an 8 piece.
This is the kind of girls that gets my big respect.
An instrumentalist..
Cheers....
Please come to America in 2023!!! I love you.🤩
Oh My My My that funk transcends borders and cultures

Truth
Oh I thought it was good food, but one or the other will do!
Juna is unmistakable. She holds it down!
They look like they're having FUN while just cooking that song, so satisfying, thanks for posting ladies.
Jazz Avengers, You Girls will Change The World No Matter What

Almost 50 years for this fabulous AWB tune, played so expertly by these 8 . Love this tune back in 1974 musicians, love it even more now!
If you're a true fan of The AWB and "Pick Up the Pieces" like I am, if you haven't already, check out this version from "Live From Daryl's House" w/ original AWB member Alan Gorrie and crank it up! Very funky.

Ha! still remember when my father brought that album home that night in the mid 70's.
The Ladies in the House! Y'all's did that Classic "Justice"!
Our lady on the soprano sax killin it
🥰 Beautiful,talented, and exciting. Dave Koz, if you’re watching, book them on a cruise and I’m there!
Scotland says yes !!😎
Twice.
To what? A can of irn bru and a lorne sausage bap with ketchup?
Original AWB’s Onnie McIntyre and Roger Ball would be so impressed with this rendition of a classic! Well done, girls!
Sólo una palabra Extraordinarias!!!!...fuera de éste planeta
South Africa says yes❤
That girl on drums just killing it and making it look like a walk in the park.
Well, she's only the top 10 drummers in the world. Look up Senri Kawaguchi.
それぞれの魅せ場もあり、これぞ四管の迫力ですね。生で見たかったなぁ。
Chizuru Segawa grinning from ear to ear throughout the whole piece.....brilliant. 😍 Wonderful performance from all the girls.
Yes, she's having the time of her life! I would be too if I had Senri Kawaguchi and Juna Serita laying it down on the other side of the stage!
Chizuru is a blessing to watch and she is far more talented than she often is allowed to show in this group. Look her up 😄
Every song these ladies do has a great feel and accuracy. What a treasure!
Absolutely fantastic cover. Couldn’t be tighter. Great solos.
もう50年近く前の曲だよね、 If I Ever Lose This Heavenが好きだったな〜。
Junaさんと川口さん、最強です。
Love this group and everyone is awesome, of course, but I can't get enough of Chizuru's beautiful smile!
Good grooving!!! 素晴らしい ファンになりました!!
This is phenomenal.

国内にこんな素晴らしいバンドがあるのを知らなかった！カッコ良すぎ！！
一流どころが集まったバンドですねぇ❗️リーダーはドラムの川口千里さんかなぁ❓中園亜美さんはソプラノの使い手、米澤美玖さんはあの有名な京都橘出身の榎本有希さんともバンドをやっています❗️
ワクワク🥰
Chizuru Segawa is having the time of her life! I would be too if I was included in the rhythm section along with Juna and Senri.
What an incredible group of musicians a totally outstanding performance, Senri Kawaguchi the humble genius!
No kidding, one of the best renditions of this great song. Love the pace and energy, not to mention the individual skill and brilliant teamwork. I hope you can keep this group together for a very long time. Excellent chemistry!

Пока я ростил детей выросли новые музыканты, класс барабанщице супер фанк играет !!!!

"drumming lady" sounds to me like you've never ever heard of Senri Kawaguchi ...
I’m not much for covers of songs already done, but what you’ve done with this, exceptional! Love the modulations. Love the nice I - IV groove in the middle. Love the four saxes. Very, very well done.

Japan has some of the best Jazz left on the earth!
yeah and some pretty good funk too it would seem...
@@BOLStudiosThe Blue Note in NYC is my go to spot here in America. ✌🏽
I love it when talented musicians add to an already great number. I bet the AWB also love it.

You, Ladies, are bringing so much joy...to the world...Thank you...!!!!
I've heard big Orchestras play this song, but these beautiful girls are the best~USA
Tremendous playing, so much energy and they're having a ball. Good luck to them all. I definitely have a soft spot for Miku.
I have only one criticism of this: the amount of applause is about 1/100 of what is deserved! A fantastic performance!
Fantastic, they have so much soul. They are so darn good 👍. Outstanding work 👏
Juna and Senri together, amazing. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the rest, but so talented! Love their take on this song.
Jazz Queen Senri Kawaguchi 🩷🩷🩷🎷🩷🩷🩷
😍 I can't stop playing this video. Love this song and Jazz Avengers have the best version. Plus they are all so classy and talented 💪.

Excellent! The perfect song for your band. Looking forward to a LOT more like this 🙂
