Video: D’Angelo, 8 Minutes of “Chicken Grease” Live in Stockholm, Sweden

Aww. Sookie. 5pm in New York and is already nighttime/right time in Stockholm, Sweden, where as I understand it D’Angelo is blessing the Scandiavian capital with his first show in more than 11 years AS I WRITE. As proof I offer this 8-minute video clip of a fit (hell, ripped) looking R&B Jesus ripping through a marathon version of “Chicken Grease” and by ‘marathon’ I really mean Usain Bolt breaking speed records, sprinting backwards through his Olympic qualifying heats before doing the lightning bolt dance on the finish line. Yes, today is the 12th anniversary of Voodoo, but let’s not get too sentimental (or mystical) to focus on what is important here: WE HAVE ESTABLISHED VISUAL CONTACT.

I’ll admit it.. I started to think D was gone… I’m glad I was wrong!!

Thanks Stockholm, Sweden. Our distant reletives. You were very blessed for D to return to stage in your country. As usual you did a good job of keeping us up to date.
I live in Australia.(One of the most boring coountries when it comes to real music. I am talking about the real music that heals your soul). I m getting off track now.
I stayed up almost the whole night waiting for an update on D. The last time I did this was the inauguration of Obama. Shows you how important D is to my music love. Glad to see video evidence and him doing his thing in 2012. Looks like 2012 is the year..Please keep on posting. One love.

My prayers have been answered. I really can’t express how excited I am to here this new and watch the video footage. D’angelo’s voice is still intact and his ability to work the crowd has changed. Shit is about to get real. If rumors are true about him being in the studio with Prince, Cee-lo and Questlove…man Some of these other “music” cats better throw in the towel now. Though expectations are high, I’m sure D will deliver the goods. Welcome back, brother….D’ANGELO IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  …. It’s just a pure BOMB! Back in the 20′s original blues piano rythm loops! Real Funky Music!
