This is one of the most exciting examples of musicians expanding upon Dilla's music in a live setting that I've seen yet. Jazz improvisation and arrangement lends a nice touch to Dilla's work when done right. The Yancey Boys Quintet take you on a journey as they go off for a good 10 minutes on instrumentation for their cover of "Fall In Love", then a cover of Dilla's famous production "The Light" and finally a performance of Jazz and Hip Hop as one.
