Moonrigde/Potpourri

Svete Bailey plays Moonridge/Potpourri on Bass Exreemes with Victor Wooten and Greg Bisonette

[@zacstein5219]

A true master, only have ever been a handful of musicians like him, and an even smaller number of bassists.

[@MusicbyErnieLeblanc]

This Is One of My Favorite's! Steve Bailey is Incredible!

[@ropy89]

this is beyond everything i expected...i mean,through out the whole track in every second he plays things some would need at least a year to learn that little phrase to play perfectly. this is discustingly and redicilously beatiful and so out of space man ! ...just...awesome...

[@АлексейРозенбаум]

Стив Бэйли это просто монстр бас гитары!

[@ropy89]

i dunno what to say...really... i mean,listening to this is stunning but watching it is straight up paralyzing !!! undescribebly beautiful,just like music was ment to be

[@mrdiazzz007]

did ne one catch the "here comes the sun" quote at least thats what it sounded like to me. steve is the man!

[@Chris_Davis_music]

Coincidentally I was at a Gregg Bissonette Clinic in 2004 and he said Ringo was his favourite drummer. Did a whole Ringo medley.

[@markrobinson8410]

He's definitely a master of bass

[@xxtyan]

un grand homme et un sens des harmoniques, c'est sûr !

[@SuperXavier30]

6 String!.. amazingly smooth!!

[@jdthecrazy]

Awesome! Kinda does make me wish for a fretless 6.

[@mattharriss3835]

That's my Bass!!!

[@alecrisser12]

I'm trying to learn this piece right now... Wish me luck cuz I'm going to need it.

[@denisleroy9340]

All you need is practice. Steve used to practice 12 h a day for years...

[@alecrisser12]

@@denisleroy9340 I practiced for about 2 to 4 hours a day regularly for the first two years of my learning. I try to get in a lot of practice, but having a job and a social life makes that 12hr kind of practice impossible. These days I usually get in at least an hour of practice about 4.5 days out of the week, and you could probably double that amount with every other week that passes. Practicing advanced techniques and songs that are well beyond my current skill level is not only a fun challenge but seems to help me learn a lot quicker. I think listening to and attempting to play music by Primus, Steve Bailey, and Victor Wooten from early on seems to have artificially inflated the number of years of practice I would seem to have. Then I'll be thrown back into my place by some simple music that uses a progression I'm not familiar with.

[@davidgoode7416]

Awesome!

Amadeus lives!

[@Grindi73]

this is so epic

[@alecrisser12]

When you reach level 100 in bass playing! I can actually tell a couple of times when he messed up, but he doesn't miss a beat.

[@Soulfide]

I wish I could get tabs or sheet music for this

[@mykezakjd]

To ftfrito I complete respect what ur saying. I disagree somewhat but I can understand where you are coming from totally But I want to debate it that has Steve done anything that compares to onkonkel y trompa and Portrait of Tracy (they kinda go together), cuz I'm not shore he has. And with Manring he does have that hyper bass which I believe jaco would have been able to rip on had he had it in his time But it's fair enough you disagree dude cuz u got a fair point

[@mrdog66]

Jaco invented the electric bass as we know it, well he and Stanley. Steve is a great artist and musician, period. When you get to this level it's hard to say, but one thing is for sure, Steve's doing it on 6 strings, Jaco never lived long enough to play one.

[@daleford9606]

@mrdog66 please don’t tell me you’ve mentioned Steve Bailey in the same breath as Jaco (or indeed Stanley Clarke). Plus, musicality has nothing to do with the number of strings used. Are you basing your assertions on this empty assertion on this one rehearsed performance or on a career of genre defining bass playing? 🤔

[@TehDuckOfDoom]

It's the guy. Greg Bisonette.

[@БорисКононов-я7в]

Не все знают секрет извлечения флажолетов.Он владеть этой техникой мастерски...!!!Нужна точность,хирургическая..., ещё и джаз бас,без ладовый...

[@benbassrobinson]

Are these tunes on an album?

[@TehDuckOfDoom]

Nope, it's Aria Custom.

[@arekussu]

moonridge/ potpourri.. is this a piece from steve bailey? or are there more versions to this? A original writer perhaps?

[@Scheater5]

Don't say that in front of him. He's got small hands, too. Most of that stretch is just in having the right technique.

[@sebastian_arroyave_author]

i think he goes much further... his perfect pitch have no parallel man. what about 13th chords in perfect pitch on a fretless!! and when he gets an upright¿? man you know that guy does play the bass, in every way he's the maestro of modern bass, and he's a very complete musician. and beyond virtuosity there is an honest artist & and a compromised musician

[@HFsrj]

I mean he plays great stuff but he does tend to be off tune a lot...

[@TehDuckOfDoom]

At times like this I regret my fretless is only 4-string. )

[@johnrobinsoniii4028]

A six string Bass.

[@BustaMonkey1234]

its weird ucz jaco was a gud massist. but i always thought his solos were bad. and i gata say. steve, manring and wooten are proably my bigest influence in this type of bass playing. for metal. i wud say john trijilo, ryan martinie, mark mcknight, shavo odadjian, and the bassist for the band slayer (also the lead singer) i got alot of influences. in all deffernt types of music. i have no idea way i was trying to say. >:P

[@mykezakjd]

Do you not think Jaco is the best Fretless Bass plasyer ever?? He kinda is the original. I'm not a huge manring fan personally but I get what ur saying, even tho I like Bailey better. Personally I think Jaco is better than them both, do you not?? Just wondering dude later

[@fatherof3husbandto1]

First rarely means best. Just first. Great that they were the innovator, but the best part is the next generation getting ahold of those ideas and just hoing stratospheric with those ideas. I live satch and Vai, but the new kids these days are murdering them. And I love every bit of it.

[@fatherof3husbandto1]

But i get it, having to admit the guy who was the bid d on the block when you were a kid is always going to be your best, the scary part about admitting our heros have been overshadowed is we have to admit we are getting old and irrelevant.

[@rbeforme]

Apparent unpopular opinion: this sounded like shit.

[@CitizenKang]

Can you show us what you think sounds good? Criticism without context is pointless.

[@ticearpey3235]

It’s a Tool fan. Don’t be surprised.
