BASSIST REACTS To Primus - Southbound Pachyderm | FIRST TIME REACTION

[@Cflynn1992]

Mr. Krinkle is pretty good. Fun music video and you get to hear Les work his magic on a double bass.

[@mikeljenks]

If you watch the video pay attention to the background and remember it’s done in a single shot. It’s like watching a fever dream.

[@Thessik73]

I second this recommendation.

[@dangerkeith3000]

"Too Many Puppies" needs to be listened to!

[@PUNKinDRUBLIC72]

I love the whole of Frizzle Fry. Bought the album after seeing them supporting Jane's Addiction about 90/91.

[@dangerkeith3000]

@@PUNKinDRUBLIC72 Frizzle Fry and Sailing the Seas of Cheese are peak Primus, imo. Not a bad song on those albums.

[@PUNKinDRUBLIC72]

@@dangerkeith3000 Agreed!

[@mikejohnson-dl7vt]

Jon the Fishman 😎❤🎶🤙

[@AlltelJohnny12]

Shake Hands With Beef

[@gmoneyak]

Over the Electric Grapevine is criminally underrated

[@steveboogy]

THIS!

[@2887zar]

Primus has a live DVD called hallucino-genetics, it is mandatory viewing if you want to really appreciate what Primus does, it's really a pleasure to watch these guys live. Pick any song from that DVD or just start at the beginning and make a video for each song, the Primus army will be here for it.

[@realization2013]

Is that the one that came with an e.p?

[@NeilNolte]

💯

[@thefluxcapacitor1]

I concur. It's even better on hallucinogenics.

[@charlesboyd2876]

Try the live version of Ground Hog Day. Superb!

[@kurtsaxton823]

I'm convinced Les claypool is from another planet.

[@HandleTakenlol]

If you watch the original Men in Black and slow down the office scene he's on the big screen for sure

[@bchooper5603]

Best of all, he (like all of us here) h8s the low class rubbish who didn't vote for Harris.

[@kurtsaxton823]

@ bchooper5603 There is always a More-on that has to bring politics into everything. I feel sorry for you.

[@gwalla]

Planet El Sobrante

[@CrustyTuna]

Cry harder. Keep calling names and looking down your ignorant nose, that's how Harris lost. Also, she and people like you are idiots

[@jamestalkington6306]

It seems like les claypool, Maynard James Keenan, and buckethead all came on the same spaceship together.

[@FritzMonday]

One of my favorite Primus tunes! That intro!

[@36klm2726]

Jilly’s on Smack live @ Bonnaroo!!🔥 Also check out Mr. Krinkle!

[@mattbailey6417]

You should check out the live version he does with Sean Lennon as The Claypool Lennon Delirium at Austin City Limits. Its awesome to see him play this.

[@KennyDoege]

Lacquer head is a good one

[@jeremeywilson2318]

John the Fisherman!!!!

[@BarrenCosmos]

Seeing your face in the thumbnail is enough to tell us what kind of reaction we should be expecting 😭It’s the best day for a new Aileen video too 🖤

[@russellhoyt588]

Les has also done several side projects. They're all good, but Oysterhead is my favorite. They only had one album, 'The Grand Pecking Order.'

[@bigtaliberto3092]

Some other very good Primus songs: Shakes Hands with Beef Too Many Puppies Those Damned Blue-Collar Tweekers

[@marcwright8395]

Love love love this song 💖

[@travisbeckner6849]

"On the Tweak Again" has a nasty bass line that'll draw you in an spit you out leaving you smiling while asking wtf just happened

[@ItchyMctrigger]

Coattails of a DeadMan off Antipop album

[@Fatsatan]

We can really see your legitimate love for music when you do your reactions and i love it! DMV would be a crazy Primus song for you to delve into. Keep doing what you’re doing, you’re amazing!

[@paul9569]

John the Fisherman, Golden Boy, Shake Hands with Beef, Mr. Krinkle, DMV, Over the Electric Grapevine, Frizzle Fry, Groundhog’s Day, Too Many Puppies, American Life, Over the Falls, Mary the Ice Cube.

[@raeje]

I definately second John the Fisherman (and anything that is on the Suck on This live album) - also "Welcome to this World"

[@viggo9454]

don't forget lacquer head

[@anthonydawson8080]

Golden boy doesn’t get enough love. Fun to play too

[@ramfat]

Check out Claypool's band "Sausage".

[@rayv0125]

Riddles are abound tonight

[@empiregone]

Loved it and I was hoping she would review this 🤩

[@haamurabaigreyhome4713]

Good to see Aileen back with some Primus! ^_^ May I suggest a live vid next? Full title of the vid is: 'Primus - To Defy the Laws of Tradition (Radio Jam)' The vid is from May 1989, whilst this particular upload is from 18-yrs ago by a guy called Gilgamex. I specifically mention these details as it's still the best quality upload of this vid. 👍

[@HBC423]

A festival here in Chattanooga TN was postponed for a storm, we were chillin under a bridge and Les rode by on his electric bike. Luckily they still got to play that night, it wasn’t a Primus show though, Colonel Claypools Flying Frog Brigade… he has a lot of bands with other artists besides Primus

[@mikeallred2842]

Listen to Lacquerhead by Primus.

[@AZURAKAZ]

Their cover of Devil Went Down to Georgia has good claymation.

[@addy3164]

Try Over the Falls for a different perspective of Primus

[@RobertTello-c9e]

that’s great you reviewed this. Primus is definitely an exotic taste. But always hits the spot

[@nicolasguillory1618]

Too many puppies next!

[@AaronScutt]

Officially the most excited I've ever seen a bassist about claymation while listening to a Les Claypool masterpiece for the first time. 🤨

[@KiltedHammer]

I think you would surely enjoy Les' collabs with Buckethead under the name Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains (C2B3). Any song will do.

[@johnare3617]

John the Fisherman ❤🎉

[@doorofnight87]

Really enjoyed the song, no idea what genre Primus is and I have thoroughly given up trying (I am crazy enough as it is). Really enjoyed your reaction!

[@SrChr778]

Primus Time! Yaaaaay!

[@davidbrennan8097]

You would really enjoy 'Ol' Diamondback Sturgeon'! Very nice groove to it while a bit more mellow than most of Primus' music.

[@derekj7468]

Gotta do John the Fisherman by Primus it was in Guitar Hero 2 and on South Park

[@Bruce-Wayne79]

I love you Aileen 🖤💜 thx for another great video.

[@JeffCarlson-p2n]

Hello aileen, swing your face and reactions make my day. As a bassist also groves get to me as well. One these days I hope to work with you professionally. Have a great day

[@JPjaybird]

Primus is so original.

[@mpete1000]

Love this song from Primus, Next you should do Damn Blue Collared Tweekers from Woodstock

[@user-wz7ov3cx1l]

@AILEEN - You So ROCK. THANK YOU for all of your reactions and bringing back all of my favorites. KEEP KICK'n ASS

[@nme1605]

Every time I hear this I can't help but think about the guy I saw dropped on his head in the Fox theater in Atlanta mid 90s

[@paulsmith2516]

Ok Aileen we got the Les bit now but it's Clay-POLE as far as pronunciation is concerned. I know it's spelled -pool like swimming pool but it's defo POLE. 🤷‍♂️

[@barryhouman]

You should also check out there songs John the fisherman, Anti-Pop, and Shake hands with beef

[@Mup504]

Tommy the cat live at Bonnaroo Frizzle fry Too many puppies Damn blue collared tweekers woodstock

[@n3rdstuffz]

John the fisherman, those damn blue collar tweakers or Over the falls would all be great next

[@markanderson4338]

Love that you identify as a bassist! So now you must react to the following two performances: Mr. Big - Addicted to that Rush (Billy Sheehan on bass) kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6LLf6Jse6-lm80si=ZCRQsCOEFQJpQZb1 Level 42-Love Games (Mark King on Bass) kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5jEaH-dg7eeqs0si=nGGeBpLgvETvKmzA Bonus: Jaco Pastorius- (the Jimi Hendrix of Bass) A genius that changed jazz bass forever kzbin.info/www/bejne/gImyn5uwpKhgn5osi=5ZpGOPhaTEVbSCa0

[@DavidMiller-dt8mx]

I'm so glad you reacted to this. It's one I always recommend, but I rarely get a response. The kid inside me can barely suppress a giggle. I see others are suggesting some amazing tunes - you won't go wrong. Let me say that the song that started me on Primus was Too Many Puppies, but every suggestion is a don't miss!

[@uoabigaillevey]

This song is such a vibe lol.

[@carlosspeicywiener7018]

I'm just going to pretend that you chose this because I recommended it. 😊

[@thseed7]

Primus is one of the best Live performances you'll ever see. Saw them most recently a couple years ago at the Ogden in Denver. Never fail.

[@noctisambulo7408]

Pleanty of great Primus tracks never got videos

[@mikejohnson-dl7vt]

"Too Many Puppies"(Hint: It's NOT about Doggies)😞❤👨‍✈️

[@timengland91]

Great reaction Aileen you need to listen to there song (going over the falls) its about people making barrels and stuff to try to go over the falls and trying to stay alive a lot of people died trying to do so.

[@jtwoodward7893]

Favorite Primus song all time

[@edtgedtg8397]

❤ california ed ❤ clay always has something new to drizzle gue on your brain 🧠 thanks for the great reaction 😀 ❤

[@qp773]

What a nice surprise. No joke, I watched 4 or 5 videos just last night of hyraxes (closest relative to the elephant) and now today we're blessed with Aileen and this reaction

[@freddiemossberg7204]

I always felt this was possibly inspired by Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun by Pink Floyd.

[@KenPassey-hd2mc]

You've just been Claypooled! The finest bass player ever ! 😂😂👍👍👏👏

[@obsidianthe7th]

I am BEGGING you to listen to DMV, he is tapping on the bass the entire song and it is glorious. Also if you want another amazing bass line accompanied by a WILD claymation video Laquerhead is a CLASSIC

[@ThistleAndSea]

Aileen, you are so pretty! 😊

[@numajoff]

Love this song. Has a Tool vibe to it

[@tattoodude8946]

I am so happy you did this song! The video is distracting to the music but also amazing. But I love the tension in this song! One of my favorites for sure.

[@DarkSolidKnight]

The Mars Volta - Son et lumiere + Inertiatic ESP

[@FritzMonday]

Aileen, you gotta check out one of Les Claypool's side projects called Les Claypool's Fancy Band. You'll dig it !

[@ChoobsX]

What a song, a rare dare I say serious track from Primus? Its just so engaging with a great vibe! Some of Tim's best drumming imo and you owe it to yourself to listen to the longer album version instead of the video version.

[@CharlesEmory-y4h]

I would suggest 'Mr. Krinkle' for your next Primus reaction.

[@benjaminfallowfield5658]

If you have ever seen Charlie and the chocolate factory ,Primus did the entire score

[@travisbeckner6849]

You have to hear "De Anza Jig" and Les on that banjo bass

[@Cali_Comix]

Introduced my Metal head friend to Primus, and out of all the songs, he chose this as his favorite. Still miss you, Jason...😢

[@AdamAmbrose2112]

I've been waiting specifically for the reaction to this song; I love it so much. Thank you! Also, I just want to say: Too many puppies are being shot in the dark Too many puppies are trained not to bark At the sight of blood that must be spilled so that we may maintain our oil fields

[@soulpatchjackson3076]

Primus is one band I have seen the most live, and was not on purpose. They just always there. Good stuff!

[@scottmatzeder9162]

"Shake Hands with Beef" is Pure FUNK! The "Claypool Lennon Delirium" is Les` Collab with Sean Ono Lennon....yes John Lennon`s Son....Fantastic!

[@richardlandrum1966]

I got to see CLD at Bonnaroo 2016. Fantastic!!

[@ZIG4ZAG20]

What an ingenious device Boredom encompasses my time I don't know what I should do🤘✌️🖖🎸🎤🥁

[@gerardoboraggini3776]

For me Les Claypool is one of the best bass player 👏❤️ thank you for another great reaction

[@russellhoyt588]

Check out 'The Toys Go Winding Down.' I don't think I've seen anyone react to that one!

[@daveb3397]

Feels like a Pink Floyd inspired song.

[@KevanCorkill]

Hi Aileen 😊 Tremendously fabulous reaction to Primus's Southbound Pachyderm 😊👍 the more you you watch Primus or listen to Primus as I should say the more you find out that any and all of the videos make your mind as you say go into a fever dream and the true enjoyment is listening to the tremendous artistry and musicianship. For your listening and viewing pleasure, here is a live version in 2004... kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmWsp4aegqp-mrssi=yIQdo5qmRpSGiDiX Yes, they do show the video that you just watched during the performance. Have a great day you and Arya with much love 😊👍💪❤️👑👑

[@duncanny5848]

The music was great. The vid was madness of the best kind. all superb. My first time hearing Primus, and will listen to more! Impressive does NOT cover it!

[@johnreamy2744]

Primus covering Rush's Closer to the Heart live at Red Rocks! kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4KWh513gqlonaMsi=L-qXuk3BKzJI9ENT

[@janniksiiger3367]

Don't care which one you pick, plenty suggestions already. I will be watching.

[@timspellman47]

Shake hands with beef.

[@petoasaurus]

How about "Those Damn Blue Collar Tweakers" or "John the Fisherman"?

[@brando8770]

I’m excited for this one

[@tacorrific]

You should check out P-Nut beat the bass on 311 - Feel So Good

[@markrichardson8378]

Golden ticket from ,Primus & the chocolate factory is worth a spin.

[@momomarquis271]

Please do Those dumb blue Collard Tweekers live at Woodstock. Thanks

[@AnotherPostcard]

Anything from the Brown Album!

[@josefu_velen]

Southbound Pachyderm is probably my favorite Primus song

[@garysamuels2541]

This is one of Les's favorite songs to play live. The message is to spread awareness of the extinction threat rhinos, hippos, and elephants face. He also has a winery called Purple Pachyderm, which is very tasty.

[@mF--H8]

You have to listen to Mr. Krinkle

[@brettmarlar4154]

I don't think that Primus has tobe "thrust upon you". Everyone is free to choose to engage with them or not. The only thing that no one has a choice about, is how the experience will affect you. The same goes for any experience, because you won't know until you experience it, how you will be affected. But as far as the "fever dream" aspect; I would say that psychotropic elements were involved in the writing process. So you're not wrong. But when you look beneath the surface, there are layers of meaning to Les' lyrics. Plus it says something when you can take an odd meter and make it groove so naturally.

[@Southern_Pacific]

First time seeing the music video but have listened to the track dozens of times on the CD 💿 blown away by the video.. btw Aileen I subscribed after the Winona’s Big Brown Beaver 🦫 reaction.. In my top 50 all time favourite songs.. Dave

[@JonMalbrough]

I cant wait for you to do the Fisherman Trilogy

[@F13fan]

Lacquer head! Please!(official video) And over the electric grapevine! And whenever you do Mr.Krinkle definitely do the official vid. Blue collared tweekers do the live performance where he has the silver helmet on

[@HiHoSilverAwaaay]

Yay more Primus!! This song was a blast to watch live when they came to Reno. Day I-lost-count asking for Palantir - Lost Between Dimensions

[@DarthRaider520]

This is a deep track. You're on course with Primus. Just keep doing it. Just know that Sailing the Seas of Cheese is a magnus opus and redifines what we know about music.

[@MegaSargent1]

Not as crazy as some of there other songs as far as the bass is concerned Tommy The Cat was unbelievable but the drum work in this video was fantastic keep the Primus songs coming
