    The drums compliment the bass the bass compliment the guitar, the guitar compliments the singer and the singer just shows up late and doesn't help pack up or set up

    I’m a drummer, but to the bassists in the world never let your band hold you down from sounding good
  • @Terribadguy.
    Bassists are the unsung heroes of the music industry. None of my favorite songs, riffs and licks would sound nearly as good without you guys. There's so much expression you get out of a bass and sadly the average person would only notice if it wasn't there. I remember when I first started teaching myself guitar in middle school thinking "why doesn't this sound right, I must be playing it wrong somehow" only to realize later on that I was only missing that sweet bass.

    It's the way he builds that tension before coming back to the starting note

    As a drummer, nothing is better than a bassist who knows how to take it way out of line and bring it back at the perfect time. Kick, rhythm and bass all in sync but doing totally different things. One of the best feelings ever

    “Now look at your head, right?” As a bassist I aspire to say this to someone one day.
  • @JonahGhost
    That sounded so fly I listened to this short 7 times in a row.
  • @PartyMartyDrums
    Saw him do this at a clinic at Berklee in 2005. It never gets old.

    As a drummer, there’s nothing, I mean NOTHING, like the feeling of being mentally locked in with your bassist. Something about that shared groove is euphoric

    I love the "instead of just doing this" perfectly in tempo, even the accents hahaha

    I had the pleasure of taking Vic out for Hibachi in Rochester, NY. He's an Incredible Bass player and an even more Stellar guy 👍🏽
  • @Gobbostopper
    the bass harmonics over the riff sounded lovely

    Victor Wooten is the package deal as a musician: talent, skill, and an absolute love for his craft. His bass playing is the stuff of LEGENDS
  • Victor definitely is channeling Joco big time! I was lucky to catch one of Victor's life shows back in the 90s he was jaw-dropping back then but continue to improve to stratospheric levels is very evident in this short clip he continues to blow everyone away and at the same time help other musicians be even better musicians what more could you ask for as a musician? Deep respect!
  • Such a genius. I really hope music never forgets the impact this man has had. Absolutely legendary.
  • So good. …Victor has such a great approach to music. To see him live is an entire lesson in musicianship. His skill stands on its own, but the way he steps into the shadows while others solo shows his humility and not needing to always be front and center. He makes me want to be better, meeting him was how you hoped meeting your heroes would be like. Thank you Victor.

    He IS the VERY best. I’ve seen him twice and was amazed both times. And he makes it look so easy.
