- Two of the all time greats on the Old Grey Whistle Test tv show, with an amazing rendition of Stanley Clarke's School Days. I wish the album version (as good as it was) sounded as great as this.

This was the kind of music that got air time in the 70's. What a time to be alive!
Indeed it was! Real Music by Real Musicians. 1love
There was more great music and great musicianship and great album's put out during the seventies than any other decade by far easily
@@jeffbogue3718 I'd go along with that 👍
77,78 my best two years ever....
I am so jealous.
The expressions !
The happiness !
The absolute talent !
I don't want this track to end !
Do you think Stanley CLark created parts for guitar / piano, i mean melody? in 2:40 they play improv i think. main riff is in background
Never ends..in my head all the time
When these two stand there grinning at each other it just makes the world a better place...
My dad and I found this one through our mutual love of Clarke / Duke, we both loved that tight, kinda cat like meow from George during the opening of the solo, so so good. RIP dad and RIP George Duke
Listened to this song 100 times at least. What a great version.
I don't make it a habit to comment on the videos I post, but this clip makes me happy whenever I watch it. Nothing quite like two artists at the top of their game enjoying their craft.
Me too! Thanks for posting❤
I can see why. What a great combination and a classic tune.
Thank you so much for this post!
I can't stop watching this. It's a wonderful expression of human potential.
Exactly, I play bass and was heavily influenced by Stanley Clarke and Jaco Pastorious!!!🙏👍🎸
Mr. Duke's smile is contagious!! R.i.p Mr. Duke !
Insanely talented dude, exuberance personified RIP
Stanley is the man, but George is a beast too!!!
Both master musicians
Stanley Clark made me play bass because you get to solo all the time without getting cought 💜😾
Those two standing next to each other with a big o smile was the best part
Edinburgh, Scotland. 1985. Playhouse theatre. 3000+ seater sold-out show with Stanley Clarke, George Duke, plus special guests like Philip Bailey (doing his "Easy Lover" thing, albeit without Phil Collins). Stanley goes through a great set, then steps up to the mic; "You guys wanna hear Schooldays, right?" We all say "*YEAHHHH!!!!!*" They get into it, and Stanley walks off the stage for his big solo, and stands on a seat in row 4. Me and my friends were in row 6. Stanley Clarke was RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF US, playing the solo to Schooldays.
A memory that will make me smile right up to my dying day. :)
Me too! Although at the Manchester Apollo... Hugh Masekela as support? He got a couple of bass players up for a duel and a singer too - the girl just hollered and GD and SC had a laughed...
I was there - it was brilliant
He did the exact same thing and stood right next to me at a show in London!!!!
We should start a 'group@ we stood next to SC!
You lucky f**k haha!
This is Jazz!! The stuff I grew up on as a kid....Coltrane was "Before My Time..." No disrespect to the straight ahead lovers, but this is me....this is home.
This is 2019 and this is better than pretty much everything out here today. Wow ... this is what real musicians, real talent looks like!
RP47 you need to look a little harder if that’s you what you think. ruclips.net/video/LY-54Xo_Dl8/видео.html
True, but there is still great indie/underground music being made! Check out Scary Pockets and all their collaborations, John Scofield is still doing his thing, Robben Ford, Wayne Krantz, MonoNeon, the list goes on! Just don't stop digging!
stay away from mainstream music.. sure there are great talents today but back then they where recognized and almost everybody enjoyed their music, nowadays they are underground and just a few people recognize their talent and enjoy their music
YEP
The important point is nothing like this had every been seen before. Whatever you think is grt now has already been done.. by grt musicians like these guys.
Can I just say this is one of my all time FAVORITE versions of any song ever played. I know thats a stretch but man they absolutely were grooving on this one!
You can 😜
Listen to Rocks,Pebbles and sand album as well brilliant
I agree!! I saw them together on the Project. I will never forget it!! Two geniuses❤
It’s missing one key ingredient. Raymond Gomez!
This is REAL music...glad I was blessed to have experienced it for the first time today...
I actually saw Stanley Clarke perform. I'll never forget it. The facial expressions as he played.
@@nancyconyers5802 Return To Forever is coming back (next year i think?) i really want to see them, i think it would be really cool to hear their music live plus i do love stanley clarke
RIP GEORGE DUKE !!! YOUR MUSIC LIVES ON !!!
Saw Stanley in Manchester England around last year 2019. I said to my brother "I bet when he gets going the audience will be shocked as to how good, loud and brilliant it will be. " Out comes Stanley, Alembic in hand, plugs in, and with a deft flick of the wrist, gives it the opening bars of Schooldays. At this point around 500 blokes (presumably bass players, certainly musos, all turned around, looked at each other and went......."FAAAAAAAAAAACKIIIIIINNNN HHHHEEEEEEEELLLLLLL. All with joy, happiness and admiration.
This is REAL music. Unlike the CRAP music they play today….
TALKING TO EACH OTHER WITH MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS. YOU CAN'T BEAT IT. 😊
can't get much better than this
Only when George plaued wif FZ 😎
@@jawadkazmi8856 Totta ! Näin tai siis roudasin molempia muinoin Suomessa ( Finland ) Kulttuuritalolla ja aivan huikeita olivat konserttinsa !
Stanley Clarke - The Jimi Hendrix of Bass ~ ~ ~ OH YEAH !!!
Wish I Said That!!!
My thoughts EXACTLY!!
Imagine those 2 together. Yep.......dreamin on!
All the great bassist/guitarists have incredibly long fingers. If you're thinking
of excelling on these instruments and have short fingers, you better just forget it.
nah, that would be jaco pistorius
I never get tired of watching this. Absolute craftsmen at work!
man that was great ❤❤❤ brings me back to my youth 😂😂😂
Wow, I can readily see what the commentators at George's funeral meant when they said that he made everyone feel better when they played with him. This is awesome. What a great quality to bring to these types of settings!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤yes in JULY 3RD !! LOL FLINT IN THE HOUSE WITH U ALL
It always amazes me as to how musicians can play their instruments without looking down at it AND, play together while looking at each other. Amazing...
Years of practice!
A breed apart Kevin
Se vaatii ( vain ) harjoittelua, harjoittelua, harjoittelua - 10-15 vuotta ~];>)
And some of the Duke runs are David Sancious created melodies and still he dies not need to look.
Its the clothes man, they were comfortable as fuck. That and being incredibly talented of course
Love how they play together,,, especially when the song is ending and Stanley has that smile rocking back and forth with George.
I loved him when I was 17 and now I love him at 65 and I’m still amazed. His his technical virtuosity is still unmatched. look at the expression on Stanley‘s face when he looks over at one minute on the clock.. he looks at George like dude he just missed an entire lead. He was supposed to continue into a second bar of a lead and looked over at Stanley like I’m done man🤣🤣🤣I guess you have to take it from here🤣🤣 and of course George Duke knocked it right out of the ballpark the man was simply an amazing musician…6:48.. that lead on base is ridiculous..
IN your camp sir. I remember blasting School Days on my big brothers kick ass stereo while house sitting for him when I was 17/18 and here I sit at 65 smiling big. Never tire of this one.
Oh my, my. Mental time machine. Saw Stanley in ‘78 at a college in Ohio.
What a show !! His upright bass must tremble in fear when Stanley reaches for it.
Stanley and George. I met them after a concert at Star World in Indiana in the late 80s or in 1990. They were fantastic, gracious and cool. These are the real musical artists. I am so impressed with this Grey Whistle Test live performance as compared with the studio version of School Days, I love both versions but am really drawn to this one.
I'm from Southern Indiana and I remember my dad going to see them there too
Medicine for the soul ....what would we do without music
Absolutely awesome 😃!! It's great fun too. So much talent here, no pretentious nonsense, no manufactured pop pap, just good funky, driven, rocking good time music. We need music like this again 🙏🎸🎹🕺🏽
Snarky puppy
Duke and Stanley, at their very best, genuinely loving playing together.
Well , let's listen this music and sound, no words , is great , great , so great.
holy shit, the Dukey treats on this one
I never get tired of this . Its classic , yet still sounds new.
This and Edgar Winter Frankenstein on the Old Grey Whistle Test are what today's so called performers should be shown if they want to see the meaning of the words true musicians. Brilliant performance.
I can't help but smile as I watch this.
George Duke was a beast!
Fabulous. Blasted this on our car stereo with the doors open in Box Canyon, CO and it was transcendental. The other bass player to add to the pantheon is Jaco Pastorius.
YES JACO PASTORIUS
Takes me to school in so many ways... ...Clarke's been MY "ace of bass" ever since Vulcan Princess days... ...and this clip is just amazing by both principals....
2:55 pur génie, cette aisance à décomposer le temps, magnifique
I drove down Highway 1 from San Francisco to Santa Cruz during a full moon 🌕 night 1am while listening to this album music 🎶
Really cool guy and mega talented love this album so good to hear a bass as a lead instrument him and Chris Squire awesome guys on bass, along with many more in the day
Right on Mac! Been there, done that, got the T-shirt!! What a long strange trip it’s been!!😂😂👍👏👏👏
Wow this is back in the day…I love it…when we were young. Stanley and George having FUN!
Clarke & Duke are having an absolute blast playing here together. What a great session👍🏼😎👏🏽👏🏽👋
Merci pour cette mise en ligne!, c'est la première fois que je vois ce concert!
This is what i call Music when you Can feel the song in your soul
Think about how primitive the k-tar keyboard triggering was, George still mastered it with its tremendous technical flaws! Saw him and Stanley live in Detroit numerous times ,I will never forget it until I am still in the earth!
state fairgrounds 1984!
If you're feeling funky, this will rock your socks off...bravo
Just played this on BBC 6 music on the Radcliffe and Maconie show, absolutely the best jazz funk music ever from these musical artisans! RIP Mr Duke
Duke and Stanley WOW you do not get any better,open your eyes musos this is it, you are looking at the gods, forever
This is fusion at its best. It is rocking and it is jazzy!
Seeing these two amazing musicians big ole grins is the kind of heart warming shit we could all use.
Just pure bliss I first heard this great artist with George Duke late 1970’s and brought a lot of their tape cassettes and thrashed them to death in my brother’s ghetto blaster lol
Ending on such a high note...didnt want it to stop...saw Clarke in Vancouver around 2010 it was awesome!
I love the admiration key board players have for guitarist.
Remember listening to Stanley Clarke all those years ago. In my opinion still the greatest bass player.
Remember seeing this tour at Hofstra University in NY back in 1981 (David Sancious and Ernest Carter opened the show). We had 8th row center aisle seats and George came up the aisle during his solo. I high fived him and he stuck his keyboard out so my friend Willie Woodall could touch the keys. What a GREAT show and night that was!
Heaven just got that much funkier. Rest in peace, Big Daddy, the late, great George Duke. Thank you for the love, spirit and brilliant talent that brought joy and so much more to this planet. I, for one, will miss you so and you have truly been a star player in the soundtrack of my life.
This video has driven me to buy every Stanley Clarke and George Duke vinyl I see. No regrets.
two great guys having a blast playing music. Awesome
Such a great combination. One of my favourite tracks, too.
George will be missed. New album is very good. Him and his wife are together in heaven, probably jamming with the angels.
Phenomenal as the stars they are and as George surely was on stage.
Legend George,never forget watching this live back on the OGWT I was stunned by the brilliance,RIP Mr Duke.............
TWO OF THE VERY BEST EVER, THANK U FOR THE YEARS OF GREATNESS. GOD BLESS. PEACE & LOVE. ZULU KING.
Think of a place where you can discover musical performances that you never knew existed, but when you read who is in the clips your curiosity makes you check them out and you get your MIND BLOWN and consistently find new sources of joy posted by people who dig it and have been digging it for years and are sharing it with the world by putting these performances in this place for everyone to discover anew or relive the joy.
You have just thought of RUclips, and this clip is my latest discovery.
Arthur Name
I dig it !! I’ve been doing the same thing.
An Arthur from another mother says, "Indeed, that place is RUclips!"
Classic Bass from the legend of bass nobody can pluck those strings like Stanley Clarke
One great show so many great musicians wow
Love this I rember this tune in my 20s love this a jam now 64
Wow! Cool jam. They look like they love playing together
Their faces at 3:00 really sums it up...Pure musical bliss.
Wow.
What absolutely effortless, joyfully exuberant brilliance.
That was awesome.. I got to see Stanley Clarke in Oklahoma City in 1982 at a bar called Trump's. . Good show and I sat with a couple of good looking women
Stanley i think you are way better live than in the studio so to me you should always be on stage live jammin just like this ❤
I was really lucky to see them in Edinburgh 👍👍👍
Cannot believe I have never stumbled on this version until TODAY. Thank you so much for posting up here.
Great tribute on Stanley's Birthday today. George, you always had too much fun! Keep shinin'
Pretty much when you see George Duke @ 0:07 you know STRAIGHT UP this will be one of the best videos you have ever seen. THANKS FOR POSTING! RIP George "DUKEY STICK" Duke.
Cette vidéo est et restera un moment d' anthologie dans l' histoire du jazz / Chapeau les artistes !!
Some real music playing here by real musicians. Legends!
I love this song. It is great. It can't get any better.
THE BEST OF THE BEST! Mr. Stanley clarke. And George duke.
Unforgettable !
Mr Gomez was a pretty damn fine player too. Thanks MUCH for putting this up.
I remember seeing these two in Philly at the Tower Theater. Fantastic combo.
Two great playing together wow
geniuses both of you. i sure hope i get to hang with you GD on earth as it is in heaven one day! Peace and love everyone.
George Duke R.I.P.
These guys had such great chemistry
After years of playing guitar, someone turned me onto Stanley Clarke and it changed the way I played guitar.
Saw him live 1976 academy of music Philadelphia unbelievable front row seats can remember it like it was yesterday
There is no denying how adorable Duke is beginning @ 2:24 and he so subtle and then lays into a frenzied jam, whew, I miss George.
Saw them at the Manchester Apollo in the 90’s. Sat on the stage smoked plenty, fantastic
how could you not like this song???
Absolutely world champions
When I was 10 yrs old, my uncle played this (& level42 a couple of years later) - never forgot George Duke & Stanley Clarke🙏🙌
Pezzo con cui l'ho conosciuto, grandissimo Stanley!!!
Anche io ho conosciuto stan con questo brano grandissimo
I saw Stanley do this at the Chestnut Cabaret in Philly in the 1980's.
While standing on the table I was sitting at.
Wow.
I confess to preferring the more relaxed groove of the studio version, but the energy on this take is amazing nonetheless! Still arguably my favorite Stanley Clarke tune, and everybody brought something to the table that was most musical in this version. The dynamics were AMAZING.
