Patitucci great electric solo

[catboyzee]

Notthing against Yamaha, they make some fine instruments. But JP and this Ken Smith 6...this is THE tone. I wish he'd do just one more album with this particular bass as the featured instrument.

[flcn92]

Endorsed by Yamaha, wearing a Yamaha T-shirt, jamin' on a Ken Smith....... This cat is just that cool.

[MITCHWILD]

@flcn92 I understand that he left Ken Smith for Yamaha because Mr Smith would not let him have any free strings!

[davebase3]

The ironic thing is John didn't start playing 6 string until Chick gave it to him.

[yogsothoth2099]

in what kind of progression are they improvising? great video by the way

[chiditoboy]

asqueroso

[leetheviolet]

@chiditoboy demasiado avanzado para tu pobre oido clasico...jamas lo entenderás....la constante busqueda de nuevos retos en la musica...el jazz refleja eso.....tu musica conservadora no.......es la misma analogía de hacer entender a un reggetonero la musica metal......

[chiditoboy]

@leetheviolet  estoy de acuerdo

[cheeseerox]

also watch TOM KENNEDY BASS SOLO...great bassist....fusion/jazz...

[MyVinylFetish]

Watch his fingers,

it's like insects dancing...

What planet is he from?

Top show !!!!

[scarzz86]

[TheTomasito1971]

i couldn´t say it better, he is the best of the best.

[fredbass77]

[tomaswarr]

Vaya tela el Pati lo que se toca aqui, estaba a tope, bravo.

[MonsieurSteven]

oh ouais il est monstrueux ce solo là... pure tuerie

[fredbass77]

thanks to live at the same time than me John

i love you

[bigwm]

One of my favourite bassists, this solo is fantastic. Great composer too. Consistently BAAD for over twenty yrs. I hope guys like Hadrien Feraud create a similar legacy

[leetheviolet]

or janek gwizdala

[SuperElectricbass]

John is a pioneer and innovator an artist to say the least.Hard to fill those shoes

[fdsaw]

鬼すげぇ

[pipirippi]

FANTASTIC!

[xevastra]

u are stupid , thats other history.

[bassology123]

great bass solo.

[dureauxjorge]

Generalmente no me gusta mucho su estilo, pero ahora debo admitir que las cagó este weón, weeeeeeno el solo !!!!

[jopoopoppo]

jussi pattitussi

[israbass777]

guuuuaaaaauuuuuuu!!!!!my favorite!!!

[cihan2050]

this guy is looking like he's been holding his shit for a while and is about to burst and shit his pants

[madsike]

its "got a match", from first Electric Band Album..

[heder06]

Anyone knows the name of this song, or have the entire video??? It's the Chick Corea Electric Band. John really is a phenomenon!

[iloveyoujules]

I have that video in VHS... in fact I can see it was taken from a VHS too, so I guess you will not find it in DVD quality.

[rrastafary]

madre mia que bueno

[danielworks]

i think he needs to pratice more a little bit :D

[Mamasan41]

HA!

[ATRUEBLUEHEART]

I think Patitucci has a rare blend of lyricism, harmonic knowledge, feel, and his own voice. I also like the fact that he can fit in a band and play the traditional role of a bass player as well (in all styles). A real inspiration to serious bass players and improvisers...

[CharleeVee]

love john.

Hate Janek Gwizdala

[edub82]

killin

[GalacticWolf]

Patitucci shreds, wish he'd go back to his Smith bass tho.

[shagmby]

with a little more practice ,he may be pretty good one day

[TheBubba74]

LMAO

[shagmby]

ive seen him live and he's so good it makes u laugh

[TheBubba74]

that's why your first comment was so funny. I can't believe people didn't catch the humour in your first statement.

He's definitely awesome. Chops, brains, and feel. Patitucci is a phenom.

[shagmby]

yeah sometimes ppl over think things

[orlandoCF1]

You make me sick!!!!!

[NathanPope57]

fuckin annoying

[nicolas7910]

hes lipsynching , i can see the strings, obiously fake.

[aperisimo]

lol

[adasiecek]

amazing!

[keithman8]

shit! It sounds more like a sax then a bass. Amazing though, not only what he is playing but the way he plays it with every one else.

[mattjazz3]

My guitar teacher went to school with him, he shreds.

[kirk7524875248]

This is pretty sick. Jeeez.

[kronasdot]

I really hate the stupid ignorance of these fuckings apes of music.

They don't know anithing...

Music can't be measured on whos better, punkass!

[Nikkorea]

you really cant put a GOOD SOLO down.Even if the recording was bad, the solo was AWESOME.Patitucci, hats off to you!

[quencho092]

for some reason bass soloing on a 5 or 6 string past the 12th frets.....doesnt sound too much like a bass....more like a buzzy guitar solo that would have sounded better on a guitar

[musicman9897]

its just a bad recording

[bananouz85]

i was a jaco, pattitucci, miller, wootten fan.... until i saw sergino gianni.... look for him in youtube .. he's user name is" Bassisti "... he eats them all together... watch all his videos and be amazed...

[lorenzini]

NO one is going to "top" Patitucci's solo here.  It's as harmonically, rhythmically and technically advances as any bass solo EVER and that's the truth.

Your opinion of this other dude must be high, but man, it just couldn't top this one, it could just be as good.

[bananouz85]

yeah... i never referred to the solo itself... i meant: Serino gianni, has either equaled or surpassed (i choose this) the skill, technicality , rhythm flow & feel, and harmonic beauty in general as a bass player. but each one of these bass players have solos that no other can top. thats why we learn them all... needles to say this solo is amazing.

[rustyhook100]

Oh my god...........so true! but i dont really care for the bass tone

[locohendrix85]

personally I admire bassits like V wooten patitucci and M miller but nobody compares to JACO nobody!

[mrgone984]

Hi guys,

if you wanna hear some new Bass Playing

go and check the "Low kick-freedom jazz dance " video.

i saw them at the EURO BASS DAY in Verona, they're brilliant!

cheers

[Raymundi1]

Hi is one of the best players in the world. I admire his works with Chick Corea and as a soloist. But my favorite is Jaco Pastorious, he was the best. His sound was unique.

[skafre]

His skill is amazing, but I think that it sounds bad. This just isn{t a good el bass solo concept. Listen to Teen Town or Cruise Missle instead.

JP is a fine musician though. I love his slow au bass playing. No one has better tone.

[bububuvard]

Ha man Jaco has his own style and so does John Patitucci? They are both musically gifted, that's for sure, and they are both virtuosos of the bass, period. They are both amazing to watch and they are both different.

And because Jaco is hella high when he's playing =)

[AriaDiamond007]

An astouding perfomance! Nice!

[funkbeastbasslover]

1:35-1:42....my god.

[uuaydin]

i sometimes hate this guy. too good.

[airraidsiren82]

wow!!!! awesome!!!

[funkbeastbasslover]

patitucci is a monster, and i hate to brag

but i get to see him at faculty jazz recitals cause he teaches at my school!!

[baybesaisai20088]

yo wa school do you go to?

[funkbeastbasslover]

CUNY City College of New York

he's a Professor of Jazz Studies and he's in the faculty jazz ensemble playin upright bass of course haha

[thefunkapuss]

why does it say speical thanx to jesus christ? lol

[therealdimp]

why not?

[EberhardJulius]

yes, why not? corea is a scientologist, patitucci a christ...

[heelarzo]

patitucci rules!!!!!

[grsouto]

is that a common six string bass or is it a piccolo?

[UK2AK]

It is a "common" six string bass, a Ken Smith, tuned B-E-A-D-G-C. Because the highest string is C, it gives him that higher range for soloing.

Wow, this really is great.

[medeski86]

Man, now patitucci trys to play it all east coast tradition, but we know his true roots!

[futboler454]

What makes this different from "east coast tradition"? What does that mean?

[erdemabi]

haywan herif ...

[luiso100]

not bad
