Every bass in the world wakes up on Xmas morning hoping to find Les under the tree.
I’m watching his hands but... I. do. not. know. how. he. is. doing. this. Greatest bass player ever.
He’s amazing, I’m sure he’s using the double thumping technique and I’m sure that bass must feel super percussive. Les is one of my biggest influences.
@@jahazielramirezbass no double thumb. When it sounds like he's playing multiple notes that's because he's hammering on notes with his left hand. I cannot recall a single time les has ever played double thumb. If he wants to get more notes he simply slaps faster.
Idk man he is very good but have you heard cliff burton play?
@@clinkerboot1606 cliffs playing wasn't some kind of magic. He was compared to some other great bass players during that time pretty average. What made him unique was his improvisation and writing skills.
Les owns the bass. Bass is king and Les is the king of bass. This guy can take any song from any genre and make it better. Thank your lucky stars that you have the privilege to witness music at its finest.

whos the dobro man?
Les Claypool is really an awesome musician. Anyone that says otherwise, I feel a bit sorry for you.
Thenumberonekunoichi
Absolutely and so is Brian , these guys are masters
AWESOME MUSICIAN
Primus sucks
@rob bouchard UGH OH LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE DOESNT GET IT
rob bouchard You don’t get it, do you?
I can't even begin to wrap my head around Claypool. The work is almost too good, honestly.
Your right!..what he does is totally mind blowing!!
Dude is a freak, it's just unreal.
Imagine my surprise when he started banging out Amos Moses !! Lol him and Buckethead together you had the two best out their With their respective instruments!!!
I love his bass, but don’t learn it bc I respect it too much/it is very distant from my approach. Why mimic, when you can simply enjoy
@@wastedshores8635 well said and I agree 100% it’s so easy to go out and mimic what you hear but to go out and make your own sound!!! My top three bassist Claypool, flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, lastly with the slap bass style feildy froM corn!!!
Not only is Les the best bass player on the planet he is singing while playing doesn't miss a note that is extremely hard to do he was born to play music
Jerry is up there smiling down and waiving Four fingers and a THUMB.
The way they stomp together is almost like their minds are connected
Primus meets Country. This shit is even better than Primus itself. Great stuff!
More experienced guitarist I'm pretty sure
I was the guy with the awesome stereo who cranked it loud.
My buddy brought over a CD
Acting mighty proud
He said"Listen to this, the best bass player alive."
I said, "yeah, probably a bunch a jive."
Put that CD on, and man my mind was blown.
Les Claypool thumping that bass, playing it like it was his own.
I told my friend, "you were right, he's the best and the rest of that band is might tight."
Primus Sucks.
I figured it was overdubs.
So I went and saw him live.
He was playing every note.
Wear that crown proudly Les, you are without a doubt, the absolute best.
Les and the crew among the greatest entertainers in the world massively underrated should be celebrated internationally and rightly so
Underrated? I don't think so..unless you mean this particular "incarnation," in which case you are right.
That's it. Every bassist that's tried to cop Les' tone, is outta luck. He's playin' on a completely different rig, and he still sounds like himself. I think 80% of tone, comes from the hands of the player.
Constructive Critique
Tone is less than 1% in the fingers
Expression and feel is in the hands and fingers
I've been saying this for like the last 15 years, from experience and observation, but everyone wants to attribute "tone" to whatever equipment you have. Simply is not the case. You can have every piece of equipment as Hendrix or whoever and that's not going to make you sound like them.
i bet you can drive F1 and still would not win the race. Yes you can have whatever equipment, but you have to be good to make the difference, like Les,
@@VegasCyclingFreak As a good modern example, take a look at Jimmy James (True Loves / Delvon Lemar's organ trio). That guy has one of the most simple setups. Silvertone guitar into a fender twin reverb, sometimes he uses a white Fender stratocaster. For me personally absolutely THE example currently of a guitar player that has incredible tone range from a very simple setup.
Constructive Critique tone has more to do with equipment, but tone is not as important as the way you play, if you play in the right way you can work with anything, there is a different tone, what’s the same is les’ flare as a bassist
Les Claypool for president 2020!
Young Curt yes
Bad Orange Man got that locked, sorry Les
president of a fishing club
There are amazing bass players out there. Flea, for example. Les takes the instrument beyond anything anyone imagined. He's playing a $700 (modified) resonator bass and he sounds like an entire band. This is Hendrix level stuff. Remember: HE IS ALSO SINGING while playing this stuff. Don't forget the dude on guitar because he is tasked with fitting in which is no easy task with Les.
Pretty sure that’s his boy
Brian *Key-hoesington!*
I could listen to these guys play just about forever.
JayElStuf futSlEyaJ not me
JayElStuf futSlEyaJ 3 minutes tops for me.

Les should get on with it with Primus and start kicking ass like in the 90's. Not do cover songs from a kids movie, although he can do what he wants to do.
the lastest primus has its moments but nothing close to the early stuff. i guess aging cuts into the creative magic. very few bands can recapture their spark.
but i don't expect them to. too many fans expect a band to still sound the same even though their lives are totally different. like Trent Rezner is not the same mad angry dude. but he somehow still makes good tunes....as well as bad ones.
and i'm blabbing too much now JayElStuf futSlEyaJ
Obviusly Les is bass playing GOD, but that guitarist is also a FUCKING BAD ASS!!!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Both are very special. Musical geniuses.
Bryan Kehoe. I love his brillliant bluegrass/cajun style... he's a master.
I could watch Claypool play bass for hours - thanks for a great video showing off his magical fingers!
Thanks for all the videos and sets and songs youve posted over all these years.
These 2 are on an entirely different level!!! Excellent show!!!
Les and his "vacation band" lol he has said many times that he does gig this with Kehoe purely for good times with good people. Would be amazing if they toured together again
The smaller the circumference of your thighs, the better a musician you will be.
The greater the circumference of your thighs, the greater a BBQ chef you will be.
I have no conclusive evidence for this claim.
I've no definitive evidence to refute.
Johnny Winter had legs like the lead in a mechanical pencil, so there’s that...
@@davidc1961utube But could he BBQ?
This is fucking incredible thank you
I'll take the version of Stayin' Alive in this video over the original anytime.
AAAAMEN!!!
As a Canadian I should be ashamed that I never realized until I saw this vid that Bridge Came Tumblin' Down was a Stompin' Tom cover lol. Nevertheless its really cool to see Les pay some respect to a Canadian folk legend, amazing cover!
I've been a Stompin Tom fan ever since the 90's( in my 20's then)
Saw the legendary Stompin Tom many a time and a true ' Proud Canadian ' he was.
Respect to Les for honouring and covering a Stompin Tom song
Les is a fan of Rush And Gordon Lightfoot .
What a shame this audience just wasn't into it. It looked like a really fun experience to be a part of and they took it for granted. Most of Les' interactions they barely even responded to. I mean, nobody even sang their part of "South Park" and the show fucking takes place there. What a damn shame.
AlwaysQuinning location location location
Yeahhhhhhh. Rude unappreciative audience.
Every time I've seen him I was completely mesmerized the entire time.
But, I Am a drummer.
Or at least try to be.
I know what you're saying, but also I can almost guarantee the band was and generally always is having more fun than the audience at EVERY show, and would be even if there wasn't any audience there at all. I think this is true for any good musician, the music is its own reward.
The money definitely doesn't hurt either and I'm sure they got a decent amount of that too, if they got a full month of my rent per person I would be very surprised (meaning they probably got paid twice that at the very least)
Umm.... I'm actually glad there wasn't annoying mother f****** screaming and whistling.... hollering hell yeah like a bunch of douche nuggets.
We get to hear the music, so that's what's up.
Loved Amos Moses cover, that was awesome! Could you imagine Jerry Reed and Claypool, woo hoo
ALSO: the pickup right below the fretboard: he actually slaps the string onto the pickup for that percussion effect. It's brilliant.
Tuned In from 🇯🇪🎸🇬🇧
It's really not fair how good Les is on that bass!
There all the exact same rhythms for every song. Look at where he stays on the fret board. The only differences in the songs are the bass hooks, lyrics, guitar work, and tempo
@@brandonrichardson8681 Why does it matter he has similar rhythm and similar finger placement along the board? People aren't enamored with his skill because of the hooks, lyrics or tempo (though they do play a part), it's because he can play the bass guitar as pretty much as a solo instrument at his best, and a rhythm guitar or percussion at his worst. He is the only bassist in a major band I've seen transform the bass like he has. The majority of the time the bass is either non existent or barely heard in the mix, or is a great backer piece. It's not about the extent of the board or the elaborate rhythm he uses, it's the skill in which he plays with.
Their show in Bend Oregon was one of the best shows i've ever been to.
I 've watched this 100 times. still can't get enough! BRIAN'S DOBRO is UNBEATABLE. "BLUEGRASS???" I think so . "AWESOME work!"
anything this man touches turns gold
Even his pick ups.
Unreal. I also do not know how in the f*#! he does what he does. Pure sorcery 🔥🤟
Am I the only one who thought the only thing missing from the original "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver" was slide?
Claypool is simply fantastic! This duo is killa….
this is a bit too good. dangerously so.
bad*
@@QuartQ3 No
@@-Bishop- thats the joke. you see when people say "primus sucks!" "primus is terrible!" ect ect... they actually mean that they're good!
@@QuartQ3 Primus sucks!
This is more country than any country singer on the radio
Thanks
I haven't heard jerry Reed since I was a kid. I couldn't stop smiling.
!!!!!MALDITO SEAS LES !!! DESDE QUE ESCUCHE ESTO NO ESCUCHO OTRA COSA MALDICION JAJAJA !!!!TE AMO LES !!!!
Whiskey and a bass guitar is all you ever need in life......
Every video I see him in I am amazed
Never ever thought, I would ever hear this song, British kept coming, from a rock band, what in the actual flying fuck? Love it tho!

@@warrengdrum1 o ok thanks u so much
Awesome!! Thank You, to all involved in getting this posted so that I may enjoy it. Les Claypool is the Best!
It's a bit of an understatement that the crowd is such coczandweanie breaths that no one can say primus sucks higher than above the decibel level that les and his rawBilly brother are able to get 30 seconds of any one of those songs that I don't care if les and him kicked my tent over and kicked me in the nuts and then I got told to come front row because I would 100% earn those 2 bad ass muthrz time because all you tirdboners at that show like don't give a shit about the fact your blessed to have such A twisted warped brilliant pair of noggins.come to Wv...please I promise you would not regret your decision to where youd have to check your watch or try to get in meditation ritual mode just to enjoy the mountains and trees and birds.marvins mountain top aside from all wv loves ya always will love you.green naughdahyde took me to the depths of hell and strait down further to salvation.west is the Best.wild and wonderful for a damn reason.primus suks
Just found this . Thanks from a friend.
ty 4 upload !
there is NO ONE that comes close to Les.
Victor Wooten is better, but Les is more.
whats is the pickup on that bass? and what type of bass?
That was just great.
Great to see Chris from the Black Crowes make an appearance!
This is awesome!!!
I was at this show. Love everything about Les
Love this!
You guys are great!
In a Bizarro world this is Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill
That cover of staying alive is so damn good
What's funny is that wasn't even staying alive that they played. He just played a traditional easy country riff, and spiced it up. All the songs had that same rhythm.lol every song he does. Primus plays the same seven songs on every album. He just changed the hook. I'm not downing him. Just saying. I'm a musician, and have studied his style, and cliff burtons style my hole life
@@brandonrichardson8681 Well yea for duo de twang its similar rhythm because for country music the instruments make the rhythm. But saying primus makes the same seven songs is very incorrect. Obviously you haven't studied his style that long or something to say something like that.
Never ever ever has there been a better bass player....to think he auditioned for fucking metallica...
I was there. It was Epiiiic!
I love these guys. They are awesome!
Wow! Claypool is friggin AWESOME! With the exception of Flea, no one comes even close to the talent that he possesses. Great video! Thanks for posting.
Brian Hancock flea V les for the title of bass god
Les wins in pure technically ability. Flea wins at stage presence and personally tone
Apples and oranges..
Victor Wooten
Marc Brownstein
Just awesome!
I love this !! A little more bluegrass!! 💗
Les's thumb is the strongest thing in the universe.
Just Wonderful.
Some of the best ever
Nice recording! Thanks for uploading,
Merence Tckenna Come to watch this and find I've commented on it 5 months earlier.
watch it again a year later!!!
it's a good thing I don't play bass just so I can purely enjoy Les' work without twisting my brain trying to reverse engineer wtf he's doin.
I was thinking the same but I'm a cello player, so it's a bit too close for comfort.
Such complex beauty from simplicity
this is awesome
Chris must be kin
this is rubbish, when does the real music start?
At 0:00
1:16
When you cease to be tone deaf.
WOW That's GOLD
Les rocking on acoustic bass with a Resonator is so awesome..Never seen one on a bass
Thats some next level shit...
these guys are amazing. Les awesome as always but his buddy is a great accompaniment
I would like to see him and Sea Sick Steve play together.
+John Coleman Vidrine i saw them play on the same the day. that almost counts.
WORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!that would b epic
Les and Dweezl Zappa would be fun too.
Awesome
OK WOW. Better then ever,
I have this on a colored vinyl. I got it from New bury comics. Definitely worth it. I do believe it is limited. :)
Dude is One of a kind!
Les = amazing
The Best ever
damn sweet guitars
Brown Beaver and then Amos Moses?!?! This gonna be a sick set
Nothing better than a guitarist who doesn’t know how to play a slide at all teamed up with a great bass player.
i cant help but notice every now and again Les throws Bryan this kinda look that reminds me of that look a boss give you when your in the middle of work, and he wants to see your working exactly the way he likes it. this duo is great tho gotta love les
"I fucking love it" Les Claypool is a very interesting Artist always Funky hope to see primus!!!
Viewers are probably wondering where El Sobrante, California is. It's right next door to Berkeley.
les is oooowwww
Ahhhhhhh ... real music, by real musicians, making a real good time. Yeeeee haaaaa!
The Best.
I got to see Him on this tour. It was at a "hemp fest". it was a bunch of carbon copy "rasta" white dudes all weekend, and then this godly shit at the end.
Nice Third Stone from The Sun snippet in Jerry... :)
this is great ! I like country music
P holy crap that is amazing.... Damn that should be the new group right there
Les is the best
Le classe internationale !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm here for the Stompin' Tom cover. Love from Canada.
goddamn genius!
LES IS THE BEST
