Summer NAMM Duet Jam with Eric Gales and Victor Wooten Part 2

[@wookieschnitzel7595]

Victor playing whatever the moment calls for

[@insaneconqueror5421]

Sign of a good bass player

[@royjones3099]

The all time great Victor Wooten....

[@venusspacey9685]

Thats what he tell you so you can stop practicing. He dont want you on his level of skill.

[@edgarcardona6641]

@Paul comparing instruments is just stupid.

[@stickjackal4867]

@Paul actually bass and guitar are nothing alike. They use a completely different theory altogether. Bass players play in modes. The only thing that is the same in theory is the key. Other than that the approach is much different. Bass players learn modes so they can complete the gaps in the guitars phrasing. Ur comment couldn’t be more ignorant. Good bass player actually tend to have much better ears and overall improv skills than good guitarist. The bass is a rhythmic instrument while the guitar is melodic and harmonic. I think u get the point by now.

[@onzkicg]

My goodness, how come that guitar player isn’t in my radar for all these years?? He’s awesome.. full of soul & control.

[@evananglim3683]

Check out Joe bonamassa and Kingfish too if you don't know them.

[@Jeff4014]

@@evananglim3683 i know them but Eric gales is just from another planet....the perfect combination of shredding- speed- feeling -groove- tears(when he cries while playing)- amazing chords- and upsidedown and backwards guitar playing...

[@stigmurder99]

This guy...

[@robrig55]

because he's out of this world

[@NavidKhan84]

Eric is Andy Timmon's level playa!! Upper echelon!

[@philipschrantz8402]

Victor has occasionally been criticized by some for overplaying but this shows him at his most musical. There’s much more to his playing than the pyrotechnics he’s known for. I’ve had the privilege of talking to him and he’s true gentleman, humble and musically generous.

[@Acoustribute]

Victor looks at Eric at the end like he's absolutely blown away!!!

[@tbonetrueb6011]

this is what Victor is use to; musical excellence

[@onzkicg]

Love Victor Wooten, it’s like he’s every soloists dream- he will lay out a solid groove no matter who is playing- guitarist, sax, keys, vocals, name it- he will pave the way for you , fully customised on the spot- for you to solo all you like.

[@dmreeoogdaq]

One day, Eric Gales & Derek Trucks are going to evolve beyond human musical expression and morph into pure energy, taking their guitars with them in the transition and becoming beautiful additions to the universe's vibrations and colors.

[@RM-gm7lu]

+dmreeoogdaq I like the way you think...who knows, humans of the future might not have a body...evolve beyond it

[@jeremyfarrow1166]

eric and derek got together several years ago in the studio and covered "Layla". and it's killer as you would expect.

[@damonjohnson8337]

dmreeoogdaq this is like the best comment ever

[@holygroove2]

When they play a lot, you have to listen a lot. Glad for KZbin. This is gorgeous on many levels!

[@CliffHuxtableSweater]

crazy thing about music...all the records and shows ive heard, I can say that erics solo at the end is one of the most musically soulful solos I've ever heard. it's like he's pulling straight from his heart. EVERYTHING makes sense. doesn't feel like a bunch of scale riffs. feels like his state of mind at the time and he has to tell u thru the notes. absolute fire.

[@xsolent]

You get it.

[@pierremorand9159]

Hess very goos but its too mich what you say

[@ibean365]

SAME SAME SAME SAME SAME....that was pure Magic right then an there

[@RohitSharma-hh3me]

literal fax, the guitar is a part of him

[@MrAndrewCreech]

He's singing through the instrument, not regurgitating muscle memory. That's the highest level.

[@anthonyhouse3454]

That is such a gorgeous guitar

[@whiskeyhangover1438]

Every time I listen to Eric play I get overcome with so much emotion that I think he is so at one emotionally with the instrument it just comes at me like lightning bolts! Thank you Eric.

[@LUckybones25]

I get it.

[@chaneciaporter9204]

Y’all gotta give my boy Victor some credit here my guy straight murdered that bass 🎸🎶🤘🏾😈❤️❤️ (with the time he had 😒)

[@chadpreslar7152]

I dont think anybody has a problem giving Victor Wooten credit. He is legit top 10 all time.

[@philwhite6881]

@@chadpreslar7152 Top 10?? top 2 maybe :)

[@MisterGrooves]

Victor Wooten playing on the same amp and cab I own. Life choices validated.

[@stevemccarthy165]

Fantastic. I just love to hear two people inspiring each other as they play, pushing boundaries, and setting new benchmarks for those that follow. What a stunning jam.

[@hailesionsam300]

Wanna see them jam with Tony jr Royster and Corey Henery

[@mrglump52]

Hell yes

[@Nedwin]

I don't mind paying good cash for that

[@Bahimo3154]

Victor Wooten is just the ideal and perfect bassist that every musicians bands dream about it 🙏

[@mojo_plasma]

Eric is a lot like SRV in that he just never seems to run out of gas!!! Can solo forever and still keep it interesting...

[@kevincull1091]

Two amazing musicians, thoroughly enjoyed this!

[@taxwizkid]

Love how Eric plays lefty and the guitar is strung righty, EPIC

[@etucker434]

That run starting at 4:15 had me slinging the headphones.....

[@TheAlbiCollier]

Thats all I wanna go to Namm for,. To watch the jams and come home intears haha

[@abhishekkumarkumar7887]

Eric Gales has got such unique and expressive phrasing!!

[@drumrboi72]

2 of the world's GREATEST 'Axe Masters' on the same stage!👏👏👏TOTALLY Epic!

[@headline2323]

I'm dead serious... Eric GALES #BOOM is LITERALLY one of the most talented guitar players Ive ever seen. I've seen him DOZENS of times and he 1. Never fails to blow the audiences minds 2. Never fails to seem like he has improved at his craft 100% over the last time you saw him play. God bless Eric cant wait to see you again soon

[@yasseford]

Was listening to this in the background and had to run to the computer during the crescendo and witness how amazing it was.

[@holygroove2]

See...I came back here to listen again, and I don't hear what people are saying. This is RAW collaboration, in the moment. Victor was given space by Eric AND cheered on by Eric too. Same thing happened in the first video. Both players have ample skill, and are able to convey themselves well on their instrument. If you can pull back and listen to them as a unit, it's quite energizing.

[@intelkore]

Wooten touches a bass in the ways the maker of that bass guitar could never have imagined holy shit

[@bayuda3924]

Eric is smart , make a jam session looks like a song live in concer. It always make crowd please.. Great music

[@nrich5127]

Eric Gales has just shown us why he is indeed one of the hottest guitarists on the planet - I believe even Victor was impressed. That being said, Eric took all the space on this nights performance and basically disregarded Victors presence.

[@ChrisGalesMusic]

Two of my favorites doing it to it.

[@sawdust6968]

i could listen to this ALL DAY!What MASTERS.

[@smulaula]

Victor Wooten @ 3:28-3:29 was CRAZY. Had no idea what notes I was hearing until I doubled and tripled back. Would’ve never expected a diminished climb right there. WOW.

[@rommelrivera1186]

Two Giants of the Music Trade. Folks, THIS is greatness! Soak it up!!!

[@gingaleanda]

Oh man, how good are they!

[@Evski-if4gn]

I love and I mean I love watching these two playing with so much feeling. There not just sitting there playing... there freaking living in it man and there is something so hypnotic and amazing about it. Truly beautiful

[@burnhard6638]

2:34 That part right there is really good.

[@ibean365]

This Was Like........ Definitely in my Top 5 Lifetime performances.

[@garybourke468]

A great treat to see & hear these 2 virtuosos weaving out some beautiful music

[@tonymckenzieofficial]

Man Eric you and the other dude simply are on the pulse with this playing. And you know what... you're the same on any amp :) Just awesome...

[@RyMuEntertainment]

tonymckenziecom other dude is the great *Victor Wooten*

[@tonymckenzieofficial]

Thanks

[@RedRose4711]

That was unbelievably brilliant!

[@gunscotthdgaming69420]

No one gonna talk about Eric playing a right hand guitar. *LEFT HANDED*

[@NoName-gr8px]

He is left handed. That’s a guitar for left hand. Simple as that

[@jubilhdmusic3930]

Oh damn!! He was playing a right handed guitar left handed

[@kirklewis7586]

@@NoName-gr8px he is actually right handed but plays guitar left handed. thats just how he learned it.

[@Jeff4014]

@@NoName-gr8px you are a total beginner man! that's a normal right handed guitar....but Eric gales plays it upsidedown and backwards, but he is not left handed he is right handed....so look at all those variables!

[@Neoanalogism]

What genre of music is this, I keep returning to this masterpiece of a video

[@antonioduverge3558]

What the hell was that! That has to be one of the most powerful improvisation jam I've seen!

[@jazzfiend6473]

Kid trying to taste the sound at 4:37

[@RyMuEntertainment]

Jazz Fiend 🙈😂

[@rodentcafeteria]

Love the way how at various points they both kind of venture off on their own, but by the end they're both on the exact same page. Moments of mindless noodling and brilliance all rolled into one.

[@robtp2977]

Eric is a beast wow! Just when u think u've seen it all........Vic...4:23-4:32 an incredible piece of of bass soloing!!

[@ericsprinkle4739]

Thank you Bugera!

[@image30p]

It's been a long time since I've heard Eric Gales' name. This goes to show that I didn't know who he was at all haha! Some really nice playing here. Cool looking guitar. Someone should tell him that's it upside down though hahaha! Loved it!

[@patrickgmcnamara]

"I could do that," nobody there is thinking.

[@MichaelMaksymiw]

You both play by feel. Stunning!

[@vincentm614]

This sounds like its the first time these two jammed together Eric Gales sounds amazing. Its to bad Victor Wootens bass was not loud enough. But Victor was cool and took sort of a back seat after making that assessment and listened and followed.

[@tfjzz]

Incredible performance from both guys...amazing!

[@TheloniusJ]

Two of the baddest cats alive grooving.

[@NicholasVRRS]

Eric Gales vs Victor Wooten: Dawn of Justice!!!!

[@sawmteafanai6505]

I'd say Victor Wooten is MOOD STATION.

[@PapiGrande1]

I'm surprised all the equipment didn't catch on fire got damn

[@Knight14649]

ERIC Gales needs a major marketing machine behind him. He's got more soul in his playing than so many others. He needs the push of a major player who can set him up with a proper tour.

[@awrebyawe]

Phenomenal playing by two modern greats!

[@chrismitchell7470]

The more I watch Eric the more I cannot believe he is from this earth 😂🙌

[@GuanTones]

all i can say is wow

[@Cigarsnguitars]

We used to play this in the band back in High School mid-70’s. Europa by Santana. We all liked the changes in the song. It allowed some freedoms on the song that most of the songs didn’t.

[@banjokastooie]

Intro was 'Europa'

[@LyRrecords]

Toda la canción.

[@jefpduct8725]

Wow! That was amazing to watch.

[@mhitc.4975]

very beautiful jam

[@tunaficiency]

It’s a great combo when you have the guitar with lashings of delay and an ultra dry bass sound

[@Wesley.Deuren]

Indeed. Wonderful balance.

[@driiifter]

You see Eric's face light up when Vic played the harmonic at 4:11?? If you don't play guitar yourself, I don't think you understand how insane it is to bust out a harmonic in an improv and have it actually sound good and be on time, even just 2 notes.

[@Greenpuma]

Victor’s wife must be so happy.. 4:50

[@bryanblancarte5684]

This had me dying 🤣🤣🤣

[@tuckerdrums3514]

I love how at the end they both admire each other

[@danaeverhart6487]

My friends and I share these type jams and all parts including the Sax player get to solo whenever they feel it's appropriate and it's over the Top especially like at the end like these two done!

[@tthb2846]

He is one of the best guitar players of this generation. Period.

[@csys690]

I mean... he's alright... Have you spent much time on this website? There are plenty of people both more interesting and talented. The man sitting next to him being one of them, had he been given the time of day, but no, we had to watch some dude make dumb faces because it's apparently a requirement to "play soulfully".

[@jonnehayesjr.9299]

@@csys690Yep, but here’s the real gag, you have to have roots in the Delta and the Blk church to play soulfully as well. Sorry you feel left out.

[@mojo_plasma]

Dang!! Those some bigass amps on the right!!!

[@BlindMellowJelly]

Eric just like his big brother mastered the Pentatonic scale at a very early age. Eric is still with us and I often wonder if his brother were still here how more special sessions would have been.

[@chrisbranch231]

They don't know twin but Eugene is still with us

[@BlindMellowJelly]

@@chrisbranch231 Oh, I know he is. My man was Emmanuel Lynn Gales and he lead me to buy my first guitar. The day it came in the mail I told my guitar teacher if he cant help me with "Little Jimmy King" or "Albert King" licks, I was gonna have to leave and go to Dayton Ohio to find someone who could speak my language.

[@chrisbellevue]

Gangstas Rockin' it On Set!!!

[@clintusmaximus]

I think the reaction in the crowd preeeeeety much says it all

[@juliosapere8010]

That was the best improv session I've ever heard this was insanely creative this is how you talk between instruments from the soul if you could hear the power of God this surely is what it would sound like he gifted these 2 dudes like this cause he knew they were gonna take hold and rocket power those talents Eric your the best guitar player right now man for sure 💪 and Victor man your Yoda on bass bro literally legendary

[@sly17171]

At the end Victor had a look on his face that is priceless... like a 'that was the workout of my life' look.

[@SirKinseyWilliams]

Have you watched any videos of victor? Watch him play his song "The Lesson" and you'll see this was cake walk. He could've played that in his sleep.

[@ryanadams1621]

Is he playing that guitar upside down?

[@headline2323]

Yup upside down AND left handed

[@YaoEspirito]

That's just the way he learned it, after seeing Jimi playing and wanting to be like him.

[@dkmlife565]

Eric said he was taught that way.

[@MauryFF]

Jimi had his guitar strung for a lefty, while Eric just plays a regular stringed guitar. It's remarkable. This guy has a lot of soul on his playing

[@LJDrumsTV]

Wow, inspiring tone. Love it.

[@karlismusik]

Amazing is all I can say. Eric is unreal as well as Victor

[@1323-j6k]

2:36 sounds so nice

[@emmanuelmainer850]

Its my favourite part so smooth and indescribable reverbation and echo

[@dalehumphrey8765]

Eric is a unique talent, Victor is no slouch either.When I was younger, Eric was a much bigger name in the business,then He seemed to drop out of sight.To me , He's right up there with the best.Amazing!😋✌
