  • We belong to the jazzguild of fairfield county, WINTER lives right around the corner from us, it would mean alot to young musicians if he would pay us a visit!!

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    Karen Kellett_Leone

  • Always love these two dudes, one of them is my neighbor, jazz band family. ffld. jazz guild.

    PLAY ON!!!

  • super fatty get somes!

  • I just went and added the Marcus Miller Signature Series Fender Jazz to the Fender Precision I have been using. Running it through an Acoustic B600H head with a B410 and B115 cabinet. Monster sound on both. Well worth every penny and this was early Christmas present to me.

  • Who's the guitarist?

  • @RogerCava Dean Brown

  • @RogerCava dean brown, guitar god

  • I love how he improvises when the e string is out of tune. Miller's so awesome. :D

  • Daaaaayum! I liked when Edgar Winters played this waaay back in the day but this cover just tears it up!!!! this is how funky it can be! love the whole band (I've only recently stumbled upon him on YT and I'm blown away w/each new vid I find!!) ty for the post even tho it was quite a while ago I'm glad I've gotten to see it! Much Love :D

  • I LIKE THE GUITAR PLAYER¡¡

  • Poogie Bell looks like he is having a great time behind the kit! Yeah! this song is AWESOME! Again Marcus. I wonder if he is really from here? AWESOME! What an inspiration not only the bass? but as a Musician!

  • @rvgomes1222 Well said... I concur!

  • Awesome cover!

  • marcus miller, greatest of all time

  • allan holdsworth cited dean as one of his favorite guitarists in an interview a long time ago. i think his moves are classic - musicians are allowed to be humorous! sometimes 'self-serious' musicians make for a slightly boring show. miller is just sick, of course, the essence of funky bass

  • What a great cover- it is always awesome to see professionals at work.

  • I dont like it... I funkin love it..

  • 10 people chew dentine as opposed to brushing their teeth.

  • i like how he detuned his bass, played it out of key and it still sounded nasty. this guy is beast!!!!

  • 10 people need ear wax

  • amazing. if your a true fan of music this is what its all about

  • 10 people wish they were this cool

  • Drunk Guitarrist at 2:02 !

  • I find this easy to masturbate to.

  • WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AMAZING BEASTS

  • EXTRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAA !!!!!

  • Monster Funk from Monster musicians

  • I likey, but Edgar's version is FAR better!!...Know why?...Edgar did it 35 years ago, and sounds as fresh and original today, as it did then.

  • @cheezer57 I think that is personal. This is a different version and very well done. Personally I like this one better.

  • @cheezer57 Both are very well done. Personally I think this one is better. Depends on personal taste.

  • TREMENDO!!!

  • that quitarist really love what he's doing!

  • Very nice song!

    What is the name of the players?

  • This is insane...I'm now throwing panties at the screen!

  • Awesome 

  • Quick someone retitle this to Funkenstein.....thumbs up to the top of the page:)

  • this song is heavy to carry

  • I have watched this video maybe 50 times and i NEVER get tired of it, MY GOD what a beast on BASS, man oooooh man can MARCUS play, sheesh scary to think that many of us will never be this good, but love it anyway, every time we think we are getting good we can watch this and it will bring us back down to earth.

  • Come on rookies that's Dean Brown on guitar! "Whatta live under a rock'? You too can save 15% on your car insurance w/ Geico.

  • If you have ever tried to explain the concept of "funky" to someone, show them this video along with some Verdine White, Larry Graham, Bootsy Collins and Sean Michael Ray. IF they don't get it then, they never will.

  • sounds good

    

  • 10 people play guitar

  • it´s not a human !!! they came from the other world

    a musicians planet man !!!

    AMAZING !!! Miller is the Best !!!

  • my man marcus putting his own spin on things, he will always copied and never duplicated

  • who ever dosent like this should just go watch a justin bieber video

  • it's like a hurricane

  • Fuck Off those Who disliked!!

  • the guitarist did a mean solo...

  • Murzyn!

  • one of the great 3 ..... with fender.

  • mmm why is he holding the guitar that way

  • sa - LAM - in

  • ok, he's black, plays the bass, he's bald and uses a hat, he's black, he is my new jesus

  • woww the guitar player is a freak

  • thumps up if you think he plays like a weirdo

  • Was this ever released on CD or DVD?!

  • Marcus Miller on Bass and Frankenstein on Guitar (0:30)

  • that would have to be the most tense lead guitars ever

  • Overall I liked it. But that was a lame guitar solo.

  • @djsmps

    That's funny...I thought it was a pretty damn good solo.

  • Wow Marcus really knows how to play his "instrument". No bad words intended, good job marcus!!

  • I love Marcus's groove. Very nice player.

    Great band.

  • I there any way I can purchase this video/CD? I checked itunes and found nothing!

  • Marcus Miller is one of the best bass players alive! I liked this song when Edgar did it a million years ago, but IMHO, Marcus and that bad-ass band took a masterpiece and made it a whole lot better!

  • sticking to the safe notes is always "safe".

    

  • Play on Brother !

  • the guitarist is a killer

  • epic bass line, epic guitar line, epic drum, epic gr00ve, just epic

  • Whoever voted this down SUCKS SO MUCH COCK.

  • ok, that guiarist is BUGGIN OUT... i love it :)

  • That Dean Brown may have some crazy movements and facial expression, but he is tearing up that guitar - freakin amazing. This groove is unstoppable

  • @Jadyellow8

    dean brown is actually one of the best guitarrists I've ever heard. not only that he can play fast as hell if he wants... (yeah i've heard that in an instructional video of him, but he said it was quite boring for him xD ) he is also the master of under statement.

    a great player and a humble person.

    and marcus rocks as usual.

  • you can't see half of the guitarists face!

  • I like Edgar's original better. This is a little too laid back and choppy.

  • @61SG - the original can't be topped, period.

  • @GaryNull

    Absolutely. Just say Edgar Winter last week. He rocked it out!

  • what's with the guitarist?? hahahahah

  • Bass solo is CRAZYYYY!!!

  • does anyone know E.Winter's reaction to this/these Marcus miller covers? It would be interesting to find out. Fun!

  • so proud to say i own one of those basses

  • What is wrong with that guitar player???????

  • my band plays this, and whenever someone says, "oh, frankenstein by edgar winter?" we say "no, frankenstein by marcus miller..." because even if winter wrote it, miller's version is so much better.

  • @ajm115 hell yeah! XD

  • this is nothing short of kick ass

  • drummer is nuts

  • Dean Brown moves like Jack Black.But he plays 100 times better. pure feeling

  • props to the guitarist

  • best song?

  • Dear Marcus:

    Please produce another live CD!

    Thanks!

  • this is the coolest shit ever...All these guys have amazing talent...kick ass solos everywhere you look

  • This is out of control.  So good.

  • holy shit dean brown is awesome,who cares how he moves? HE'S FREAKING FEELING IT!!!

  • did the edgar winter group write this song? cus the bass is much more technical here.

  • They should rename this Funkenstein Markus you sir are a Virtuoso !

  • one of my altime favorite bassists next to Wooten and Entwistle

  • Great Vid! 5*

    Btw, does anyone know the guitarist's name? Thanks!

  • @Paddoman05 Dean Brown I belive

  • Thanks!

  • Can you imagine trying that De-tuning bit on stage! it would be disastrous for anyone but Marcus .

  • maybe the questions about marcus bass playing can be explained quite simply by understanding the dude is a genius on the bass,and obviously music talent around him pushes it to stratespheric levels. huhhhh

  • 2 gud.....................

  • 4 wurdz

  • why do all the critics gotta fucking diss the good shit? why even bother watching this if you dislike it! fuck off!

  • daaaaamn they really are musicians

  • Very nice bass player, i like :)

  • more idiotic comments from the peanut gallery these cats are master musicians WCF

  • continuation:

    Usually, this kind of music gets inspiration from jazz and not from rock - this is why it's a pretty good trompet solo solo. Instead of marcus' - that was just way too long.

  • Dude you think they were improvising? EVERYONE that you listen to play jazz music solos improvises.

  • I dun hate you :D I just wanna say : He would repeat everything anyway its just his style. Bass players can't do the same solos as guitarists because they hold the band together. I take it you know something about jazz so I won't do simple shit :D, you get the idea. Plus its more for the musicians listening on how hard it is to come up with it (improv) and restrain from going ape shit :P aka go crazy

  • dude, there's nothing for a bassist to hold together during a SOLO. oh, and i actually play bass myself, i know about improv lel - and when using the scale that Marcus uses in this solo, he hears everything beforehand - i'm not quite sure i understand what you're saying tho, i'm sorry :p

  • Well what I mean is that he is bassing (lol) his solo on rhythm more than pure awesome if you know what I mean.

  • haha keyboard assasins out in force here too?

  • How's he supposed to wear it?

  • Oh yeah baby thanks for posting this gem! Here's some stars for you

  • Don't be hatin' on Dean Brown... he's a sick guitar player.

  • i like miller more than wooten, he may not be as fast as wooten but his note pack alot more of a punch

  • i think the same way :)

  • I agree - both players are big idols of mine, but sometimes the guys that do tons of double-thumbing have way too tinny of a sound (so that every percussive/lightly touched note is audible). MM never seems to sacrifice his tone for a flashy technique.

  • Great jam... i didn't know Dean Brown was so retarded when he solos.....like Iggy Pop on acid.

  • Guitar Crazy

  • Let's see you post something better.

  • i'd post a vid of me + your mom & sister but youtube would take it down quick

  • I had that problem when I posted that video your mom recorded of you & your dad

  • Why does the drummer makes me wanna cry ?

  • because he's just filling a blank spot..and nothing else

  • BEST MARCUS MILLER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • man, this is is AWESOME!!!! I love this song.

  • Wow.

    If you have such a low opinion of what is a perfectly respectable (and, frankly awesome) take on a classic tune, your rendition of this song must be amazing. I just saw your channel page, and man are you a fucking incredible musician!

    Oh wait...maybe not.

  • you shouldn't reply to that kind of person... he probably likes marcus, but he sits alone at home, has no friends, is bored and then he writes shit about great artists and when you people reply, he is quite pleases, because this it the only way to get attention.

    so next time we just spam his comment, and leave it.

    btw: marcus is a funky wizzard, and crapht sucks xD

    funk on!!!

  • i love marcus, any1 got any sort of tab of this song?

  • figure it out damn this song simple.

  • true, but for people who don't play for such a long time or rarely play stuff like this, tabs can be very helpfull to see what the musicians like to play; helps figuring it out later.

    I'm not saying one should just play tabs (trust me D3m learning it yourself is hard and takes a while at first but really pays of :P) so ... yeah ;)

    Ps: The song's great :D and MM (+band) rule :P

  • That deserves a standing O, fantastic!

  • Is this on DVD?

  • As for Dean Brown, I recommend all of you his another great album 'Groove warrior'.

  • joking? he'd dean brown man xD

  • guitarist name?

    anybody who knows plz answer

  • Dean Brown.

    Check out his album 'Here' from 2001.

    That's a masterpiece.

  • Dean Brown

  • The hell?? When came to Korea and I didn't know about it?

  • Marcus' groove is as good as it gets period, no excess, just the goods. There's is more substance in his playing than all the self-loving, self worshiping bass bafoons on Youtube put together. It's all about taste, why can't all bass players realize that.

  • That's Poogie Bell on drums.

  • who's teh drummer?

  • Organ version better

  • good trumpet player

  • guitarist is overdoing it for my taste...

  • i think he is high, the guitarist. he almost fell round minute 2

  • Brown seems to behave as a leader. ;]

    Wow, great solo!

  • He always behave like that ;)

  • tight

  • whos the guitarist

  • Dean Brown

  • thanks champ

  • Haven't got words for this

    amazing stuff!!!

  • Love the groove at 0:58

  • love the chords 4:16-4:19

  • It's Awesome but the guitar player is a bit out of his mind....

  • the good stuff

  • I just discovered him. I work in a little shop, and play his music at least once a day. Everyone comments on it. Even the little kids that come in like it!

  • Good discovery! Marcus is off the charts, a real solid performer.

  • ...and how about that smokin' trumpet player....and the other guitar player..? Wow! It would be fun to go to one of their performances.

    ...and marcus...you are hot, hot hot.

  • Your in the pocket, right along with Marcus, all the best to you!

  • e foda p caraio

  • Holy crap

  • great playing!!!

  • excellent performance but check out japenzilla's version....

  • Edgar's is way better but this version is still pretty awesome.

  • THAT'S MR.POOGIE BELL!DA POCKET MAN

    !

  • amazing !!!!

  • I cant explain it with words, how much Marcus' music means to me!!!!!

  • coool im trying to play this song with some friends
