He forgot the start of his own song then proceeded to direct the entire band how to play the rest. Absolute legend of a bass player and overall musician
These musicians are off the charts. Victor is just astoundingly great. That groove he lays down is filthy and he makes it look effortless. Well done everyone
Victor's true gift is his humanity. I pray that his medical challenges subside, so that his true gift can shine - unobstructed - through his music once more!
jazz musicians in general are known for playing at the same or an even greater level than they did in their youth. if you are dedicated to your instrument, you wont ever regress due to age
@@ikigai47 yeah but he has a neurological disorder that limits the movements of his left hand IIRC. Notice how he's playing with one finger as much as he can get away with, the way his left index curls behind the neck sometimes.
I am not a musician. Great music is one of a very few pleasures I get out of this sh**hole world. These guys bring joy to a dark place. I think I'll burn one and watch it again. 😊
Shared an elevator with Vic Wooten way back in the day at a Flecktones show, he was super nice. Then he jumped on stage and proceeded to make people's minds explode. I love that down to earth humbleness he embodies that tends to be an endless well of musical inspiration .
Victor is like a Hall of Fame quarterback. He makes the whole team play better, shine better, and be better. Very nice jam fellaz! Thoroughly enjoyed that.
È veramente un maestro di vita. Non cerca il successo per sé ma per tutti. Intendo dire che gioisce non solo della sua gioia ma anche e soprattutto di chi suona insieme a lui e, vi dirò, anche di chi ascolta... È con il cuore che fa quello che fa. Mi piace davvero tanto e lo stimo molto. Se ciascuno si prendesse cura di se stesso, di ciò che sente nel cuore, che è quello che ti fa gioire anche della gioia altrui, il paradiso sarebbe qui in terra...! ❤🎉
I’m a life long metal head and recently I’ve also been getting into this jazz fusion stuff a little bit, thanks to learning Megadeth songs featuring Chris Poland, from “Peace Sells… But Who’s Buying?” It’s really opened my mind up a lot musically and I’ve improved so much, thanks to him, and this genre.
If you want some pretty metal jazz fusion, check out some mahavishnu orchestra, like their songs vital transformation or dance of the maya Another good rec would be the trio albums with Shawn lane, Jeff sipe, and Jonas hellborg
atheist's "unquestionable presence" is super sick if you havent heard it (im assuming you have) but yeah jazz is absolutely beautiful, my favorite jazz albums to show people are wayne shorter's "speak no evil" and "juju" and miles davis' "ESP" and "miles smiles". these albums have such an unconventional approach to melody and harmony but it sounds so otherworldly and beautiful and DARK like a lot of metal
Just bought a Bass through American Musical Supply and love it. Thanks for allowing me to come back to music and to regain my passion for professional playing. Played sax for years and will be getting back to it again soon as well. Love this.
When I was 14 going on 15 in high school, my music teacher, “The Bassman” played victor wooten for us. Changed my life. And I’m not a bassist. Was a guitarist, then singer songwriter, then dj for the past 22 years… now back to adding in my singing. Victor’s prowess opened me up to the possibilities of my career and musical capabilities. I went on to sing on stages around the world, impromptu, not planned. A lot of it stemmed from the creativity I absorbed from Wooten. I’m 40 now and I will never forget the first time my world turned on its musical head with the intro to Victor! This was great! ❤
Victor is a great steward of music. And AMS is the best! I've been able to get A LOT of gear thanks to the payment plan even when my credit was garbage.
So stimulating in this AI era! Music is meant to be made by humans like Victor and his friends. On the spot. The feel of grooving together and enjoy that lift-off. Great. TY.

This is an example of truly proffesional writing and jaming. Ni one rocking out, even if theirnown parts. Total give and take input. This was a fly cat turky jive shit jam ritchere
Victor is a life coach. He makes everyone around him better.
This. Just listening to him talk gives me a feeling of wellbeing. Never mind that he's one of the GOAT on bass also. 🙂
He is the nicest person! I am so truly happy to have met him!
Truth. He’s an incredible human. Love his style, his personality, his philosophies, and his ability to make music enjoyable and fun.

What a gentleman, it's almost as much fun watching him interact with these guys and be such a great leader as it is listening to the music :D
Victor makes it so simple and fun. It's just some funky D.
Victor is a source of inspiration for how and why we enjoy music! Sometimes we forget, luckily he keeps showing us the way
Victor is the coolest! Must be such a joy to play with him.

victor make everything seem simple and relaxed,. eaven the easyest stuff sounds great when he plays it

Yeah Franky “D”!!
Very tight!
This is why Vic is the GOAT.
Love that he said "Hendrix Chord" too :)
It’s really just a game to these guys! Everyone is so chill and fun and the music is insane. Last year I read his two books!
Great work, Victor! Thanks so much for including my Nephew, John Peterson! Also, check out another uniquely talented Nephew, Mike Hall Bass!!!!! 🎶
Man, they make it look so easy... Amazing.
Raise us all up Victor. Great Stuff
It's a good time to be a Wooten Fan. Funky D is insane, I want this mix forever. I want this arrangement tattooed on my forehead.

Thank you for that!
Hope the family is well!!!

Ehi Victor we are waiting for you in Palermo next month!! Funk funk!!!
