  • I dunno about you guys, but i much much prefer Mark kings slap style to victors, Victors style doesnt feel as free...Mark kings is like a train ride, victors feels like a cable car..if you get what i mean

  • Beautiful, i love the way he toned the end off rather than his usual slam end. Fantastic.

    Ok I read all the time about who's the best and Mark King himself admits you cant say so and so is the best bass player.

    Having said that, of all the top bass players, how many of them write, compose, sing, play keyboards and drums at the same level, and live at gigs as well as for other top bands?

    Exactly, NONE! Just Mr plain old King from the Isle of Wright.

  • Vai tomar no cú...porra...caras como esse te desanima de tocar baixo!

  • goil , dieser alte alembic bass mit led`s !

  • Not my favorite Mark King solo but surely funky.

  • those californian bitchez at alembic prooved to make some great basses again.

  • hey hey now, no comparing, just get your woman and do some naughty things... to the levs42

  • @Mandosami

    well, i get everything you are saying. i don't agree though, maybe you have only seen the absurd solo vids and not his work with bela fleck or some of his vid where he demonstrates groove, cause i gotta say... i have seen him groove the littles softest notes to the heaviest fast slaps. also, even if i were to agree with what you were saying. the = he is a guitar player still makes no sense to me.

  • @Zuurkool1 I think its still a valid point. To be a true bass player as opposed to a musician who plays a bass guitar there is a subtle difference. The energy that a bass player brings to their playing is one that melts into and works around the lower frequencies and has a primal groove. VW playing is technically fantastic, but to me it lacks essential groove. It's Too fancy and extrinsically extrovert = VW is a guitar player.

  • @Mandos

    why do people still make that argument "that person is a guitarist playing bass" why? that makes no sense... if he is playing a bass he is a bassplayer no matter how he plays. And i love mark king to death but i disagree he supersedes VW in all he as done.

  • @kungmaster

    I like both styles but victor is just more diverse and technically superior.

  • The 0 people that hit dislike after watching this video must be musically handicapped :P
