this is beyond everything i expected...i mean,through out the whole track in every second he plays things some would need at least a year to learn that little phrase to play perfectly.
this is discustingly and redicilously beatiful and so out of space man !
its weird ucz jaco was a gud massist. but i always thought his solos were bad. and i gata say. steve, manring and wooten are proably my bigest influence in this type of bass playing. for metal. i wud say john trijilo, ryan martinie, mark mcknight, shavo odadjian, and the bassist for the band slayer (also the lead singer) i got alot of influences. in all deffernt types of music. i have no idea way i was trying to say. >:P
I complete respect what ur saying. I disagree somewhat but I can understand where you are coming from totally
But I want to debate it that has Steve done anything that compares to onkonkel y trompa and Portrait of Tracy (they kinda go together), cuz I'm not shore he has. And with Manring he does have that hyper bass which I believe jaco would have been able to rip on had he had it in his time
But it's fair enough you disagree dude cuz u got a fair point
Do you not think Jaco is the best Fretless Bass plasyer ever?? He kinda is the original. I'm not a huge manring fan personally but I get what ur saying, even tho I like Bailey better. Personally I think Jaco is better than them both, do you not??
well although i like Jaco, i have to say i prefer manring and steve. And i think they r both better than Jaco, my god im gonna b crucified for this but oh well. JAco was good on his own time, and influenced these guys but i think they surpassed the master. just my opinion. peace
I like him but I think most of his stuff sounds to much the same. I think Manring has more skill and orgionality. Even Wooten said that he thinks manring is the best fretless player he's ever heard.
i think he goes much further... his perfect pitch have no parallel man. what about 13th chords in perfect pitch on a fretless!! and when he gets an upright¿? man you know that guy does play the bass, in every way he's the maestro of modern bass, and he's a very complete musician. and beyond virtuosity there is an honest artist & and a compromised musician
that's right, he's the best bass player in the world actually and one of the most modest too, as u said, he's the maestro of modern bass, but it's the example to follow on the attitude that such awesome musician have to do.
So many people underrate steve's technical virtuosity so much. Even though he hasn't been getting better lately nowadays since he doesn't practice too regularly... he doesn't get too much credit for the way he can use artificial harmonics. Amazing imo, to be able to play artificials like that. Not to mention just the runs he can do fingerstyle in general
Superb Man... Bailey is a genius, his musical notions are higher developed than the most of the greatest bassists around, it makes my day watching this video!!!
I have a fretless 6 but I can't even play the few opening harmonics, because he stretches from fret 7 on the A string to fret 9 on D string and fret 12 on G string. My fingers are way too short to do that.
This Is One of My Favorite's! Steve Bailey is Incredible!

Where's the beef? Bailey always has such a thin tone. Great playing, incredible intonation, but the composition was quite lacking.

6 String!.. amazingly smooth!!

Jaco invented the electric bass as we know it, well he and Stanley. Steve is a great artist and musician, period.
When you get to this level it's hard to say, but one thing is for sure, Steve's doing it on 6 strings, Jaco never lived long enough to play one.

Don't say that in front of him. He's got small hands, too. Most of that stretch is just in having the right technique.
