[kax61]

Geweldig! Ik heb dit op video, maar heb dit hier ook vele malen bekeken....tja, als je dit vergelijkt met dat gepruts van Mark King van Level 42.

[calabazoom]

great solo? question? what kind of capsules did he use?(Sabel Lecco)

[madflavason]

TokyoEagle......1,000,000 Thank you's.... This is a Great piece!

[TokyoEagle]

you're welcome!!

[quickmajik1000]

No words can capture the intensity of these artists!

[ramzoulou]

go look for felix sabal lecco's videos

this is the brother of armand, and he is one of the best drummer i've ever seen

[pzwumk20]

you're absolutely right man. Felix is a monster drummer. the guy is a living showman, played with Sade, Peter Gabriel, Manu Dibango, Shawn Lane etc etc etc

Armand is exactly the same on bass. Man cameroonians bassplayers are blessed

[ramzoulou]

He plays with eric senpé.

and he has just finished a tour with Louis Bertignac of Telephone.

and did you see the video where he is in a stadium with a "portable" drum kit ? =D

simply amazing

[electrichaggis]

you know this Joel Taylor playing drums right ?

[marazul2008]

just Great!!!

[Alvarikoke16]

great solo =D

[adurgaram]

Nice to see this video again i taped the compilation of it at that time. Now that i here it again, Armand has got an unbelievable time in his playin awesome !!!!

[pzwumk20]

his name is Armand SABAL-LECCO not Sabel-Lecco

[rodrigobsplayer]

Dois monstros baixistas, simplesmente demais. 5 stars.

[andreasswarfeld]

killer tone come on Cameroon !!!

[jaydeebassman]

the bit at 4:11 i thought dude!!!! then afta that i was hooked. these are great musicians

[kax61]

I have been to Cameroon myself for quite a number of times. This guy must have originated from a very fortunate family. Nevertheless, he's extremely fonky......yeah! Go and funk us all.

[fenderjbass1349]

he has a 69 sticker on his bass

[bassmanvic]

man these guys are still holden it down.great music,the players are even greater.music is not greater then the ones who makes it.

[yusiboy]

[MusicianForGod]

Armand Sabel-Lecco very fast slap

[Saxement]

[sweetsimo93]

[TokyoEagle]

Could someone please translate this?

[spectorsam68]

I like Stanle Clarke's glasses! The bass playing was ok too...lol kidding. That was amaaaaazing. I like what Stanle does at 3:48 and afterward, sounds brilliant.

[TokyoEagle]

What he does at 3:48 is indeed very cool!

It's what they doo by flamenco-guitars too!

[spectorsam68]

Cool, I thought that I have heard it before, just not on bass :)

[ACUTEFAILURE]

ON THE ONE!

[bowelrock]

Nice bass masturbation at the 5 min mark:lol

[bubbles9816]

WOOOOW !!! ha ha! that hit the spot!

[smoothbabic]

hehehehe i thought i'd mention this

The guy plays bass on 'Brecker Bros.---The return of.....'

[arnbassbaritone]

What the hell is he doing, its sick.

[voncoolio]

Armand's way better than victor wooten

when you think about it. wooten may be able to go 'clackityclackityclackityclack­ityclackityclackity'

real fast but this guy has music and soul

[kazamamaster]

It's about time someone sees it the same way I do.....

[arnbassbaritone]

Pick up one of his cds before you run your damn mouth.

[kazamamaster]

I happen to have a few of Wooten's CD's. However, I have more material with QUALITY bass playing on it that Armand Sabal Lecco plays on.

Lecco plays with a more rhythmic African feel, which is why most of you can't understand what he's doing. Go listen to something else than that mainstream Wooten crap before trying to say what you don't know about...

[zman2003]

Wooten is definitely not "mainstream."

[spectorsam68]

way better is a stretch, Armand has that soul, and wow! the first time I heard him I got chills. But victor has a different kind of style, which also has emotion and feel

[50Stringbass]

at first i was like "ok, this isnt that great" but then when he started slapin i was like "woah! whered that come from? nice!"

[ArtFesti]

This guy is just Amazingly amazing !!!!!!!!!!

Yeah man!!!!!

I dont know why is not popular

Thanks for the video and please if u have more do not hesitate to post, our spirits need some more!!!!!!!!!

[ndongousman]

his brother felix plays drums ,and he is a great player to....! they played with manu dibango's band!

[xiz90]

God damn they are making babie basses around 05:15

[bankebrum]

OUCH!!

[musicman9897]

fuck one more to clear things up since youtube doesnt let me delete posts, sry, but wen i said previous post in the last post i made i meant my first post

[musicman9897]

so sorry apple 0192, i thought the previous post i made got deleted i still dont think ur right with the 80% of the time grooving thing, but just with less harshness, that was all directed toward kazamamaster, who thinks wooten cant groove

[musicman9897]

o and that was to kazamamaster

[fertocambel]

hahahaha,funny comment about the seinfeld thing!!!

[ejlarsonstratford]

i meant to sat my last message to kazamamaster, not u.

[kewl2006]

jesus christ.. this guy is among the ranks of the greatest bass players i have ever seen in my life...

he could do the seinfeld thing, too

[DMCpro6944]

Cool, i saw them live!! American and African style mixed together, very slappy!!

[Apple0192]

he's good! Really good but not to diss the guy (because he is probably twice as good as me) but idk..his slap felt awkward..for me anyways..I love the tone he is getting from those strings anyone know what brand they might be?

[kazamamaster]

Akward? Man you need to listen to more worldly musicians...Armand Sabal Lecco is one of the greatest bassists to hardly be known. He's actually done much work on the reknown albums Mistura Fina and Another World by Patitucci. Lecco is a monster on bass.....BTW, the bass he uses on this gets that tone, it's not the strings..

[Apple0192]

hey listen the man is great, but I've played/gotten lessons with alot of bass players in my time Victor, Marcus, Stanley, Michael Manring, Flea, (along with other amazing musicians such as Beal and Tony Trischka) and thats just to name a few. He just seems awkward with his slap pattern is all, and thank you for informing me about the bass and I would say it might be more of the amp if anything (depending on brand).

[kazamamaster]

His pattern isn't awkward. It's his rhythyms that you might not be accustommed to. Check out East River Drive by Clarke. Lecco plays some sick stuff on that Cd..Anyways, the bass is a MusicMan Sabre. Amp SWR 4 x 10

[Apple0192]

all I'm saying is that 80% of the time he's got it in the pocket and then he gets too wrapped up in flash that he forgets to groove sometimes and that just creates awkward feel such 2:18 to 2:35 feels awkward at some points because he's not feeling with the drummer he's in his own little world recovers at 3:05 and makes it really groovin but once agains goes into something awkward at 3:17-:24 Its fancy but not lockin, and when I said he was twice as good as me that was modesty.

[kazamamaster]

Groove? Man please don't bring up groove and say you've taken lessons from Wooten. Wooten does not groove by any means.

Lecco grooves much harder than Wooten. You don't play bass with John Patitucci not grooving. Another World was grammy nominated for the writing which I think Lecco did/played one.

[ejlarsonstratford]

bitch...

[musicman9897]

saying wooten doesnt groove is like saying jimmy page cant make a good solo, and that guy didnt miss one beat, now go jerk off you shmuck

[musicman9897]

saying wooten doesnt groove is like saying page cant solo you shmuck, fuck off. you obviously never listen to wooten and just take him for some show offy fuck, which he isnt

listen to some flecktones, or him in the current line up in chick coreas electric band, that mother fucker grooves harder than ur mom did last night

[SirJuice48]

it's not the bass he uses to get that tone, it's his fingers and the notes he chooses to play. If you had that bass I'm sure you'd have tone nowhere near his

[uaerm]

cok sakat valla:S

[TokyoEagle]

In English please?!...

[jjaaccoo]

Very good! Thanks for the video.

[J90820]

both these guys are beyond incredible, i can see why wooten gets his inspiration from stanley..jeez

[Nuthineverworks]

Ziisus Christ ! Dewd is like Jimmy Hendrix on Acid with the Bass...

[dabitv]

Power of bass:)

[lekaiserfranz]

Small rectification: his name is " Armand Sabal Lecco " not " Armand Sabel Lecco ".

Thank you for this video !

[juankavamo89]

Man, I discover Stanley Clarke a few days ago, and I feel that he's one of my favorites.

[jimd87211]

this guy is amazing

[ACUTEFAILURE]

We are very similar Armand and I.

[jcsgroove]

I was backstage about to barf a kidney cause I had to go onstage right after this!!!!! hahaha! Don't know how I survived!!! One of my best musical experiences ever!!! Stanley is still the MAN!!!!

[lilkrissy123]

Really, what group do you play with?

[heenez]

F#ck yeah !!!!!! Those are Nasty chords by Clarke!!

[originalsky]
