Victor Wooten - Victor's Jam

[Amezz55]

who's better than victor wooten ??? go ahead try

[Amezz55]

lol his so synchronize with the bass guitar that he don't even have to worry about mistakes ,he would play the whole track eyes closed like it was a hubby thing

[D0g3Styl3]

worlds best bass player hands down!

the 39 people who dis like this have no class, no taste in music, no idea about soulful music with feeling.

[DarkIye]

This man cooks funk hotter than chip fat. Holy moly.

[Fenorn]

Victor Wooten makes 240p kick ass!

[Ninjamads]

It is a bit sad that the two top comments are about the drummers hair and about wooten looking like cleveland. When this solo is one of the best ones i've ever heard, if not the best.

[slapbassgood]

@Ninjamads Poor you.

[Painkiller107]

sweet funky jesus.

[perks37]

At the end, he's just assuring you that it's his jam just in case you didn't believe what you just fuckin' saw

[w5cdt]

One man band!



[hembre7210]

i feel like he did the bass tracks for seinfield...

[Amezz55]

@hembre7210 possible

[ZeCockOfTheWalk]

man, when he bent the note up at 2:21, i think i came a little.

[1NovemberMoon1]

tabs?

[gregokiller2]

Hey you guys, try look out for the drummer behind Victor, took me ages.

[jimbo666ist]

...How?

[pyromaniac221]

At the very beginning, is there a term for what he is doing there? Or is it just a riff

[andrewbautista23]

@pyromaniac221 it's called intro. lol

[UltimateGamer504]

Jimi Hendrix on bass?

[Aidos8158]

SMEXI ;D

[ElectrochemicalMusic]

I am Electrochemical Reaction

If you dig Wooten, then check the tunes on my page! Tryin' to keep the lead bass style alive, and bring it a step in to the future! I pale in comparison to this bass legend, but I'm on the path

I apologize for spam, but understand that I don't have a big label or any money behind my music, so stuff like this is all I've got. If you like it, throw a thumbs up my way, if not, then feel free to ignore this and continue about your day.

[alexgrinkov]

is it Token

[gcgilmer1002]

The drummer is like,"WHOA!!" 0:52 hahahahaha

[pablooo757]

genio!!



[ECalebR]

if your a rookie bassist and you've seen victor you either wanna practice or give up.....i hope majority practices..LMBO @ RANDOMPUBES69......lol

[RANDOMPUBES69]

he fingered a girl once......once.

[bagamer13]

@RANDOMPUBES69 yeah dude she fucking exploded.

[15Holladay]

The whammy is cool, but really?

[NRPVkuroodia]

I think a just had a musical orgasm, god damn!

[tombokickass]

hes so black

[NDawg2112]

I like the bassists who don't care if they're the best in the world or not. I like the one's who feel the music they make and are proud to keep working at it.

[supersheep1001]

I'm surprised he still has a thumb left...

[MrBooBooCat]

ZZZZzzzzzzz......

[MrTruckdriver2011]

whenever I see this guy I can only ask...seriously?

[Charliedethklok7]

he has a whammy bar in his bass? holy saints fuckitous

[DontCallMeShirleySMD]

@Charliedethklok7 Les Claypool has a whammy bar on his bass too

[Charliedethklok7]

@DontCallMeShirleySMD Fuck Les, hes not as great as victor.

[tombokickass]

@Charliedethklok7 holy black jesus of ethiopia

[TheGhostTechno]

epic

[Drizzzzzttttt]

tremolo?!?!?!!!??!?!?!??!?!...­. error

[Idontgiveafdotcom]

he kinda looks like cleveland from family guy

[williamakoekje]

i hope that bass is 18, becouse it just got raped big time

[jeresbasso]

look that drummer face at 0:40 to 0:54 :D

[MorlowKing]

@jeresbasso hahahhahahahahhah. :D

[FredH26]

I don't see god I see a badass bass player fucken sick bro!!!

[DrRunaway]

[dkay182]

seinfeld transitions wish they were this cool

[RunMrJogMan]

Just unbelievable.

[AlexandreeM]

Who's Flea?

[mayquiabd]

Yeah, this is the real drum n bass

[daloser09]

This is my bass playing idol!

[claribassist13]

Freakin' amazing...

[StarTrekGorilla]

the only bass player I have ever seen with a whammy bar on his bass!

[matthewharr1]

@StarTrekGorilla Les Claypool uses one, but Vic was probably first!

[StarTrekGorilla]

melodic bass playing a la Vic!

[BlueAvenue22]

He's an amazing bass player but this music is beat

[halodemo65]

This man works wonders.

[mouthyweasel]

My grandma rocks harder than this doofus.

[lolingstones]

super mario?

[libertyguy13]

jimi hendrix of bass 

[Bassmastamike247]

So inspiring

[bassenigma]

this video revives the part of me that dies from metalocalypse

[ccaos1991]

Drummer goin for the 7 year old swedish girl hairstyle, sick!

[cursedswordsman]

@ccaos1991 LMFAO

[novusfunk]

Victor feels it...

[judgemanmusic]

this is a GROOVE!!!!!!!

[harry61991]

thank god for people like this.

[vanpee888]

probably victor's left & right fingers are calloused so much. =P Best bass slaps!!

[GamersDemos]

boring imo idk what ppl like so much at bass. i'm a guitar guy....bass is for me just a guitar in slow motion...best dude on bass=average dude on guitar

[niklaswikstrom78]

@GamersDemos haha you must not now much about music then. But hey, keep playing those Iron Maiden solos

[GamersDemos]

@niklaswikstrom78 i don't play iron maiden :) i make my own music but in general i play heavy metal with eargasming tapping parts and shredding, i'm out of money cause i bought drawing tools but i will buy a camera soon and record myself and i'll make you eat up your words...ha...if i don't know much about music..who does?

[niklaswikstrom78]

@GamersDemos What a surprise you play heavy metal. :- )

You don't know much about music, since you fail to appreciate this piece from Mr Wooten

[Rizilo]

@GamersDemos If you won't appreciate another's music, they won't appreciate yours. If you think that speed is the coolest thing in music, then go play Guitar Hero. And I bet you can't play anything that 'sounds' good without distortion to hide everything.

[GamersDemos]

@Rizilo i never said speed is everything and please don't insult me with ur shithead hero, that game is the worse thing i ever saw, there's a new game comin out this year where you pluck your guitar into computer and do the notes, kinda guitar here but u actually learn something, anyways,never said speed is anything and when i dont play metal i also play classical and spanish music or just jams i like (kickapoo/hotel california,etc.) and there's no distorsion there

[doublethumpbass89]

wow dude you have no idea the art of bass do you? i think you shuld check out jaco if this isnt your style

[Frutoses]

I give credit to this drummer. He opened the path into the jungle so Wooten could jam all the way through.

[M95jansma]

Epic.



[HMDopeman]

gooooooshh

[TheStoffar]

Dare I say faster than funky? And Mark King funkier than fast?

[izndr]

круто

[Bobbyjameswhite]

The grand master of the funkadelic monks!

[TheTractor1979]

Victor wooten + John Myung= 2 greatest bassists of all time

[irena7777777]

@TheTractor1979  Geddy fucking Lee!!!!

[jmt391]

@TheTractor1979 as big a DT fan as I am I just don't think Myung is up there with Wooten, Claypool, Flea, Pastorias etc... Though he is amazing don't get me wrong

[noinwe]

@jmt391 Well Claypool, Flea are not even in the same league as Wooten or Jaco.

[RulloCom]

@TheTractor1979 Marcus Miller.

[hahiknewyoudpickme]

slappa da bayass!

[ganareporever]

ladies an gentlemans... thas what funk means!

[ValetoDimitrova85]

Луд, лу-у-уд, лу-у-у-у-у-уд-д-д-д!!!

[Voltron1774]

Love it!

[KOREAisHana]

I recommend Choi Woo Joon - Pudackkury

[Punks1Not2Dead3You4R]

He's not even paying attention to what he's playing, he's letting his soul do the talking, thats my kind of musician.

[alvingordon75]

maddddddd

[KOREAisHana]

I recommend Choi Woo Joon - Pudackkurry

[ninetales7]

@KOREAisHana watever dude\

[biologicmediaDK]

check my bass video out, victa style!

[ArseneWengerIsGod]

FACT: Watching Victor Wooten, no matter how many times, no matter how slowly, no matter how many times you repeat watching...will make you no better at the bass, b/c it's still impossible to pick up his RIDICULOUS technique.

God Bless Victor Wooten!

[amoyou4]

GOD ONCE CREATED WOOTEN, THEN GOD CREATED THE BASS.

[MsNothingSerious]

@amoyou4 So true!

[thelycandraven]

mad!! amazing

[ClosetLooner750]

For some reason, I find no pleasure in jaco's playing. I dont feel he stands head and shoulders above any of his contemporaries. However, Wooten, NOW THATS SPIRITUAL!!!

[AbsolutJesed]

Genial!!!

[Oudl3000]

Yeah - go ahead Cleveland !!!

[Crispito19]

Did he just make an harmonic on 0.29? With a fucking bass?

[DamageIncM]

@Crispito19

Why is that so weird?... It's easier on thicker strings than the top guitar-strings.

If I can do it all the time on my guitar, he can sure do it on his bass, especially with his talent, easily.

[Crispito19]

@DamageIncM Really? It is the first time I see this! I was amazed, I didn't know it was physically possible!

[ClassicRockGuy4]

It's in 240P but you can't even tell over his awesomeness.

[mattybass1]

This song reminds of "Run for Cover"by Marcus Miller

[wetwizz]

If you look really closely, there is a drummer behind that guy with a bass.

[Iknownotofothers]

@wetwizz orly?

[drdave313]

@wetwizz THE ALMIGHTY GREGG BISSONETTE!!!

[Malzarin]

LOL, he isn't even pushing himself here! Love it!

[Nuggy16]

tell you what though, the drummers got the funk

[tomdbeddig95]

u ever want to humble a bass player, show them this video :P

[Lupobass1]

Probabily faster than a neutrino!

[Tremblay343]

@Lupobass1 lmfao you win

[schwarszendeust]

WOW!  0:57 OMG! epic funk tone dude!!!

[eltsacllih]

He sleeps with that thing. Notice he plays half of that stuff with his eyes closed! Slap game is sick!!!!!!!!

[simplerock17]

napahakahusay mo sir victor wooten idol!!!!!

[Brennonicolini]

We, bassists, know that "THATS NOT EASY"!!!! i can only play simple songs like another brick on the wall. NOW THATS THE KING!!!!!

[TigerTaint]

ok, seriously. the first minute of this sounds like a "shreds" video. all you hear is muted picks and sloppy notes. once the beat kicks in, THEN it's impressive.

[Ycros]

@TigerTaint Only because the crappy recording lacks *bass*

[ImAlbertTV]

Whammy bar bass!!!! :D

[dahaka60]

Is he realy a man?

[labonfy1]

ESPECTACULAR !!!

[Skeif13]

@0aapo I don't know what you just said, but I laughed anyway.

[Amezz55]

@0aapo lol Wait What? can you articulate more whatever you said

[0aapo]

@Amezz55 holy fuck i shouldn't use internet when drunk.

[Amezz55]

lmao i totally agree, WARNING don't drink and surf the net

[JoeForACowboy]

Does anyone else sing the theme to the Cleveland Show when they watch this ?

[amzrable]

lol...his bass has a whammy bar.....=D

[interloperftv]

@amzrable I bet his bass could even play itself.

[CrispyXR]

haha looks at the drummers face from 0:28 - 1:00 , he keeps making funny expressions :D

[13Sam1]

@CrispyXR Drummer: how the hell am i going to keep up with that?!

[cestoiber117]

This guy is so funky he makes Bootsy Collins seem like classical music.

[zonwuka]

@cestoiber117 noooo

[marioeperez1]

36 ppl could not take there eyes off the video and they accidentaly clicked on disslike

[WCPweCanplay]

why no music now a days, groovy like this...*sigh*

[ItsMeeCambeey]

Legend



[wawenski]

wow he's great haha :-)

[samyinn]

God it looks fake but it's definitely real

[akerswizard779]

Victor Wooten and Flea vs Geddy Lee and Les Claypool would destroy the world.

[BassistFive52]

@akerswizard779 geddy lee and Les Claypool would win.

because GEDDY LEE IS A FUCKING GOD

[gmj2012]

OMFG! Another bass guitarist genius to follow now & love! I'm such a drum and BASS slut, lol. He's worth ruining my rep for.

[anally333]

is the drummer a girl or a boy...

[GabrielDhalaman]

CHECK CHICO GOMES OUT,PEOPLE...

revolutionary...on youtube,he is old himself

invented THE TRIPLE DOMINIUM for bass

[FriendlyShadow1]

Look at that drummer staring in disbelief. I don't blame him. ^^

[xshredbassx]

I never get tired of this!

[Malzarin]

Ok, that was................ aw screw it i'm still picking my jaw off the floor!

[OhMyFuckinGlory]

bass > guitar .

[gefsty]

@OhMyFuckinGlory you mean >>>>>>>>>>>> if you reffer to technique like that (with all of my respect to the guitarist :) )

[rocktheintertubes94]

That bass is actually pure diamond, so it can handle his thumb whacking the body of the bass. Normal wood would simply turn to dust.

[verigar]

His fingers must pierce through walls

[makemydayization]

aaaaaaaah he's crazy

[TheSonsofHorusx]

he must have like a cybernetic thumb or something

[KahunaGraffiti]

now all this needs is bootsy to jump in too

[nackykun]

Yeah slap that bass

[MAGICm4st3r1]

35 people dont get funk

[Kobokon]

FUNKIN FUNKY!

[alpha1shadow]

he's like the eddie van halen of the bass to me.

[bashamus]

over 829 000 views? I think about 1000 of those are me.

[goddim2006]

Daaaaaamn, everytime I hear this guy makes me wanna buy a bass!

[Amezz55]

damn 1:31 you can hear 3 sounds ,

[andrewbautista23]

it would take many years for you to be able to do this. i know, i practice myself.

[ashleesimpsonstar]

[sanghoro]

[willy1986tralara]
