It's insane to me that I've been coming back to this video for 15 years now as a bassist and I just consider it 'widely known' as one of the best bass soloes of all time... and this has less than 100k views. Victor Wooten and his work with the Flecktones is INSPIRATIONAL.
The drummer is his brother, and they have been doing this since they were little kids. Victor and his brothers toured with Curtis Mayfield when Vic was only 5 years old.
Victor just makes me want to play bass. Idk, I get really inspired whenever he plays to just be that good at some point. He actually said one time that "you make me want to stop playing bass" isn't really a complement :p
Probably the most Epic moment in Québec bass History!!! Tout le monde Était debout dire que je l'ai decouvert en 2009 l'année après qu'il soit venu a Mtl
I've seen a lot of great bass players, then there is Victor Wooten. Sorry, there is no contest. Seen him 6-8 times and I still can't believe what he can do.

I’m right here with ya thinkin the same exact thing before I saw your comment!
That is the craziest and yet most technically proficient and skillful bass solo I've ever seen.
If you like this guy, look up Mark King from Level 42, you’ll thank me later…
I was just thinking about the challenge of being the drummer and having to keep time with all of this going on lmao

I can't imagine that there is a better funk solo in existence. Technique, creativity, and style! Radio woo 10
I can't believe only 35,000 people have seen this....this shit is crazy as hell I've never seen somebody play a bass like this lol
Sorry, it's even less.
I'm probably 1/3 of the total view count
@@dekarthegreat lol same here, every few weeks I put this on
Is anyone else not getting any sound from this?
No sound!
He even got better after breaking the string. Master.
🥀🥀🥀🥀
I've got chills

Saw them in Ottawa in 2002.
In fact, it looked like he was determined to break a few more.

Yes he’s absolutely great, but for me personally the number 1 is Jaco
Awesome victor💚💚
Beat bass groove in history. Fight me. I'll go down swinging.
I wonder if he'll pay for my jaw that just dropped?
This has got to be the bass solo to end all bass solos. HOLY F**KING CRAP!
I think he was actually playing to try to break another string. "2 strings? No problem"
Currently studying Jazz Guitar. Fuck that off, I'm gonna work on my slap technique and rule the world!
THE BASS SOLO.
futureman+victor=AWESOME
Na de Béla!!!:DDD
Did the Montreal Jazz Festival ever put out a DVD of this show? I've looked in the past but never found one.
Not sure why they cut audio to it…if you can’t hear A SONG then why have the video?
No audio 😢😢
lmao this happened to me at a gig, i just played every thing up 5 frets!
who the fuck disliked this?
The Strings probably 😂😂
Fodera Yin Yang bass guitar *o*
Para mim está sem áudio o vídeo o que pode ser ?
Didn’t miss a beat after losing a string!
Da Alacaa African Howe when the Tuareg and South Africa at either the north when Alatls Alnmedin and has lost Msiky bavardgy Arab and Trki :)
he just raptured
you guys never saw victor play all his work is like that
No sound
And they say god isn’t real…
It's not a real bass solo unless you break at least one string.
He should have been arrested for what he did to that bass.
This has got to be the bass solo to end all bass solos. HOLY F**KING CRAP!
