This video is from their last album “Game Theory” and is one of my personal favorites.  I’m not crazy about the video, but any Roots media I haven’t seen is still good to me.  Enjoy.

?ueslove is producing the new Al Green album.  The legend hasn’t released anything since 1977, so this is sure to be an amazing album.  Here’s a few words from qoolquest - “Shame i didn’t have a professional crew document these 3 days of recording Al’s 3rd Blue Note album. All i can say is that i’m a producer on a mission. and that mission is to make the follow up album to 1977’s The Belle Album. Al’s last great masterpiece. Sonically i wanted to take him back to the raw elements the make a classic Al record. no synths, no crunk, no snap, no cameos, just raw breakbeat drums, a bass, an organ, a guitar, and AL.”
