Don't know where to begin....one of the Baddest Bands to ever do it. Cyril's voice is on my top 5 along with David Ruffin , Marvin Gaye, Paul Williams and Maurice White. And the one time I met him, I told him so.The other musicians in the Band are awesome. And lastly , Willie Green , his playing is Magical !
Heard then in late 70’s and early 80’s here in Oregon and got to meet Mean Willie Green after one show - what an amazing person. Not just a great funky drummer with that New Orleans style, but a truly genuine gentle spirit. Love the sax and all the rhythm complements. So kewl.
I was blessed to see these four brothers live twice & so glad to be viewing this video snap shot from 85. Art Neville(Pappa Funk)- great singer/organist, Dr. Charles Neville-The Horn Man- and a singer on that sax with a most unique sound unlike any other(R.I.P.), Aaron Neville -The Voice-finally became an overnight sensation after only about 30 years in the game , and the baby brother-Mr.Soul-Cyrille Neville-great drummer & a voice that wakes the spirits. From the great city of New Orleans these four gents helped take that city's music to the world. I thank them for this uplifting music. Thanks for posting this video!
@ MRnewkTrane... So sad to get to know that Charles Neville has passed away. When did this happen? How old was he already? Anyway...such a sad loss for his relatives and friends!!
The Nevilles...New Orleans gumbo....hot like chilli pepper, sweet like cherry wine, gits ya deep down in ya very soul, make ya shake ya booty All Night Long. Soul/Funk/Caribbean/Blues perfection.
I was lucky enough to see and hear this amazing band throughout the late 70's / early mid eighties and beyond.. their music still inspires me to this very day to never give up playing music! And to top it all off, they are all very real / nice people. I remember reading an interview with "mean Willie Green' in a drum magazine and he was talking about making a soup (with real ingredients) and for me, it all tied in perfectly with how REAL this music is and will always be!
Where was I in 1985? I thought POP was all I had to avoid. I forgot that ROCK was still going on SOMEWHERE. From Outlaw Country to the Neville Brothers.

Days late in checking my mail- Dr. Charles passed in late April. He was 79 yrs young. The music as always lives on.
@@helithemaddog4994 And Art Neville too :(
Laid back and tight. Paradoxically. Almost no one can do this. They did it. Feels soooooo good.
Excellent comment

You got it!
🤓👍🔥
Have seen the Nevilles (and the Meters) hundreds of times.
This is one of their BEST live performances recorded.
Look around. There are much better videos of them than this one especially around 89-94.
@@jamestemple8970 I will, and I have even much better memories.
Yep
🫵🏾some of the best concerts I've ever seen🫶🏾
Nice to view this history. Finding their bearings. And it only got better through the years
The best LIVE Band ever!
I believe they might well be. I could really kick back and be there. You are lucky to have seen them LIVE.
Can’t argue with that 😊
Cyril Neville would be a better Pirate
of Caribbean than Johnny Depp. :)
