Victor Bailey's sound was and is definetely unique through the years, playing several different bass guitars. Does anybody know what kind of bass this red one was that he played in the eighties?
Victor Bailey ? Marcus Miller...Jaco....? Nathan East....Stanley Clarke?...wish I was on this list...they all are great musicians....love this post, damn great playing....
yes, my friend, i was there i did not know them of course i was 18 or so, then i saw them and miles after he released tutu, both concerts were unforgettable, but personally i liked this one more, the atmosphere was way better, miles played in the stadium with the back to the audience all the time!!!
victor's good but if anybody should be called a jaco clone it should be that dude Richard Bona that dude is nothing but Jaco he is Jaco X1000000 that guy can play
I wouldn't say he is a Jaco clone, Richard has his own style, he may sound like Jaco at times, but that's only because of the fretless bass, Richard Bona has his own style as well.
!That's right! And besides his great bass Victor Bailey is an amazingly refined musician, just the highest level !!!!! Listening to 'Low Blow' is enough to appreciate him in every way!
Not sure clone is the what I would call him, undoubtedly heavily influenced by Jaco, as were many others, but he took that style of playing and moved it forward, Jaco stopped evolving as a player because of life crisis, someone grabbed the baton, what's wrong with that? Check out his playing on WR's Procession.

If he wouldn't took over Jaco's Style everybody would say Weather Report is missing something of their special sound after Jaco has left.
