I know this is going to sound like hyperbole, but from a sheer technical standpoint I think Charles Berthoud is the greatest living bassist right now. He does things that I've never heard anyone do -- Wooten included -- and he does them with absolute clarity and precision.

[@JennerationX100]

I drum for a living. When he slowed down the second groove at 27:48 he shows his caliber. It's so impressive to slow down that much and nail the technique and timing. I'm really impressed by him.

[@GingerDrums]

@Space Daddy I also play bass, I kind of get what you mean, but nailing a 60bpm ballad is more of a feat of professionalism and competence than a double time bop tune. There is nowhere to hide when the space is given it's due.

I remember see him live at a jazz concert with Bella Fleck and thinking this guy is incredible, but there were times where the tone and chops seemed a little rough. I’ve been playing music for more than 30 years and feel that @CharlesBerthoud is the best bass player alive right now. His tone, clarity, and technical skills are amazing. Even Vic himself acknowledged how great he was. Love your channel and hope one day to see a breakdown of how of Berthouds geniusness…

[@JCtheMusicMan_]

One of the biggest thing I have learned from Victor Wooten is his philosophy on learning music (or anything really) is by immersion. The analogy he uses for learning music should be like how children learn language. They aren’t required to learn language theory and then start speaking. Instead they start “jamming” with experienced speakers from the start. To sum it up, approach learning music by doing it and learning on the fly as you go.

[@yofuman]

Victor might be the best or at least most approachable teacher of music I've ever heard. His videos where he instructive amazing

[@J.M.81]

Marcus Miller also did Double Thumping before Victor showed up - not that often and excessive 😁 but he did !! That first example for Double Thumbing that Charles was playing, is a Marcus Miller lick as well Of course Victor brought it to another Level …

[@BassByTheBay]

Indeed. I believe Freddie Washington also does it in Patrice Rushen's "Forget Me Nots". Not sure, but I think Mark King also was doing it. But no doubt that Victor took it to another level.

[@FawnDoeMusic]

@@BassByTheBay Ya Larry Graham also does it a bit on Pow as well. I think that's 1978. Wooten wasn't the first but he's def the dude who did the most for popularizing it. Edit: I think he also does it on Release Yourself. At that's 74' - go figure the dude who invented slap bass has tried everything lol

[@HighChiefTauai]

also, Victor often credits his older brother Reggie for showing him the double thumb. Reggie does what Victor does just on guitar.

[@SamRoads]

I think Stu Hamm might also be in the picture for certain techniques Victor popularised?

[@anthonydavis5993]

Agreed! .... That's not a Marcus Miller lick it's a song! I was just listening to it on my way home before I got this... Man I was going through the comments to see if any caught that he PLAYED a MM song while they were on Victors jock! I enjoy there Scary Pockets for the most part but they're musical view leaves a lot to be desired.... They had that "Best horn section" one and didn't mention Parliament/Funkadelic... What till y'all get in your 50s' to hold such esteem for certain artist, live first then look back. ....dude played a Marcus song praising Victor Wooten... Wow Couldn't think of a Victor song....

Inspiring. Infectious. Informative.

[@TeaBroski]

Charles is, unironically, the greatest bass player of all times. He's young and times are less open to popularize his talent than they were in the '70s and '80s. Yet, he's bringing whole new meanings to what "playing bass" means and I'm sure he'll keep refining and innovating. Thanks Charles

[@k0sac0]

Charles is a virtuoso without a doubt, but if you aren't in KZbin (english) and bass enthusiast, you probably don't know who he is. Look for Brazilian bassists, Italian, bassists, Indian bassists, Japanese bassists, African bassists, Turkish bassists, Cuban bassists, etc, you will see and hear things that Charles (at least publicly) haven't even try. At least to my knowledge he hasn't done anything that has changed the way we play bass. He is super young, he may do it at some point, but as of today he is not there yet.

[@TeaBroski]

@@k0sac0 I browse around the bass community since when Davie had less than 30k subs and I’ve never seen anyone at his level, ever. His tapping techniques are incredible and he’s able to add impressive dynamics in ways that were not been explored before. Also he’s not just a bedroom musician but a stage performer. 40 years ago he would have been acclaimed on par as Pastorius or Wooten but times are just different imho

[@k0sac0]

@@TeaBroski mate, I've been playing bass for over 20 years now. I can tell you there is a continuum, on technique (which honestly is not as important as 1, groove, and 2 vocabulary) didn't you see when the guys in the video where astounded by the harmonic chords, he says it's sooo pretty! That's vocabulary! But any way, 40 years ago Charles wouldn't have the technique that he has now, cos they weren't invented yet. Jaco's fingering is, till this day, unique, he developed that way of attacking the strings. Charles studied those techniques, he mastered them, but he didn't developed them. So let me tell you who developed the techniques that you like him playing. Right hand, percussive style is Jaco, and a little bit later Rocco Prestia; taping Sheehan; for slapping it goes: Larry Graham, Marcus Miller, Abe Laboriel, and Victor Wooten. Honestly, Remco Hendrix isn't even close to the level of virtuosity that Charles has, but what he does with his bass is way more interesting and creative that what Charles does (at least on his channel). Mono neon, Ben Ezra, Pipoquinha, Mohini Dey. That's why I love Davie504, cos he uses his platform to spotlight other musicians, including Charles. There's a whole world out there mate, enjoy it all. PS you should explore Adam Nelly's channel he does a way better job in explaining what I'm trying to express.

WOW! What a great video :) Victor once said: "If you want to give a child the opportunity to learn to play a instrument, let the child play the instrument as the child want's to play it." He had a someone in the family on a visit at his house, who had his 5 or 6 years old child with him on a visit. Victor took a bass and put it in front of the child who started to tap the strings on that bass. "There you have it", Victor said. "You can of course play the bass like a piano" he added, and then he started to tap the strings. All because of this little children :)

I remember when my 13y.o. little brother came home and showed me he had learnt "Can't Hold No Groove" and actually had the same groove and feel - blew my mind! Two years later he learnt Wooten's version of "Isn't She Lovely" where one hand plays the melody while the other plays the vocal line. That being said it's one thing to learn and copy how a person plays something, another to create it in the first place - what a talent Victor Wooten is!
