UNT One O'Clock Lab Band: Christian McBride - In a Hurry (1994)

[@jakexie7149]

Dude imagine being a bass player and having Christan FREAKING McBride go "uH" and "mhhm" during your solo. Like heaven has been unlocked after that.

@Landon Jay instablaster =)

[@garylsmalley]

I was spellbound by the dueling bass players! Hey, and I'm a trumpet player. Awesome

[@SoaringTrumpet]

Same!

[@adrianguev1294]

Christian Mcbride knows how to have fun at a gig while improvising 😂

[@hughpenner1417]

Im trumpet too

[@mmckeever23]

The young bassist's grin at 7:28 is awesome...he just lived his dream. That's what music is all about!

[@josephkarl2061]

People like Adam Neely keep saying that bass solos don't really do it for him, but for me that was f***ing brilliant! Also, big props to the production staff here. The quality of that really allowed this thing to shine.

[@Ted_DiSanti]

I kind of agree with him but with the exception of Christian Mcbride and John Patitucci. Those two guys are the only bass players that actually solo as well as horn players.

[@josephkarl2061]

Would you add Jaco Pastorius in there, or is he not counted because he's electric?

[@josephkarl2061]

There were bass players doing great solo stuff before him (Jimmy Blanton and Slam Stewart come to mind), but for sure when N.H.O.P arrived on the scene, the whole jazz bass scene accelerated up a few gears.

[@Ted_DiSanti]

I would say the fact that he was more jazz fusion than traditional jazz kinda negates him. The electric thing kind of negates him cause the electric is a lot easier so solo than the upright, but the main thing is the jazz fusion v.s. traditional jazz

[@josephkarl2061]

Fair enough. In my mind anyhows he was a great jazz bass player, but you're absolutely right about where in that space he sits. In any case, it really is nice to hear extended jazz bass soloing.

[@arxe9314]

you could definitely hear the convo between the bass players

[@madpistol]

The dueling bass soloists is possibly one of the greatest moments in music history... speechless.

[@Zachary-ro6eg]

That Bass duet was absolutely nuts

[@luismantaras6460]

The duell between "dem basses" was unique and worth the whole video along with the drum s solo!!!

[@lucianoquezada22]

Well damn, I need to go practice...

[@progmind4274]

Dear Mr. Heffner, You are superb bass player, and your solo lines are too marvellous for words...

[@parkerwilson253]

Is this technically a quadruple bass solo?

[@davisginn1298]

😂

[@joseg.matamoros2847]

Hahahahahaha

[@ssssmeeee1]

A double bass dual duel!

[@judywatson7731]

These brilliant and talented students of #UNTCOM show us that swinging jazz is soul medicine. Congrats to Alan Baylock

[@robertgage2785]

Man these N Texas lab bands kick ass and take names. WOW.....great job

[@Rock-Bottem1982]

Probably the best Bass duel of all time, they feed off each others playing and energy perfectly

[@dompartida]

Hearing the horns struggle with that last (difficult) phrase of the melody makes it all the more impressive that McBride and the saxes nailed it (especially that bari sax).

[@jasondavisjazz]

Kyle on alto sax is swangin nicely! Everyone is in the pocket. The bass trading was fire too.

[@roosterslime9430]

Bass player is actually Steven Heffner

[@strykerthe_byker]

Broooo this song is fire!!!

[@Ted_DiSanti]

I've seen him play live twice and I must say I've never seen a jazz bassist capture a crowds attention quite like he does!!! The on festival I saw him at another ensemble's bassist defineley was subject to the stereotypical "people start talking at the bass solo" but not McBride! Props to that kid for trading bars with him!!!! I would have been scared to death even though I admire the guy and know how friendly he is!

[@jjsc4396]

These are the greatest, most tasteful upright bass solos I've ever heard….and I'm a bass player…..these guys are wailing at light speed with complete taste and class.

[@alamooji3716]

That bass duet!!!! oh my gosh amazing!!! I screamed YEAAAAHHHH and started laughing joy, and the crowd right after, you just hear like a million people scream YEAH simultaneously super funny!

[@gubgubbubbub]

Every bit of this performance is just gold!

[@nathancarr3488]

The most fun I’ve had listening to bass soloists.

[@longhaulblue1145]

Kudos to Heffner for holding his own with Christian McBride. That was a hell of a dueling basses solo!

[@ziruini5071]

the dueling basses was the best thing I’ve ever heard

[@simonvasquez6039]

The drum solo quoting the melody was great!

[@YoungWilliamO]

Great sax solo

[@auburnsmith5610]

nothin holds my attention like a double bass solo, let alone a DOUBLE double bass solo

[@honkytonkinson9787]

That double double bass solo makes my hands hurt! Wow!

[@brittneydavis2573]

[@Johnsonicv]

[@jorgestramusic]

[@theawesomatt7569]

Thats how you shread, jazz style

[@eeshaanpp]

YES FINALLY

[@sammacaraeg4210]

It’s totally by coincidence, but I find it hilarious how well the alto solo and the trumpet backgrounds line up at 1:58

[@nicolaslofgren]

Samuel Macaraeg not a coincidence man. It's called playing in the pocket.

[@danieldavis2049]

THIS HAS NO RIGHT TO BE THIS GROOVY MY LORD

[@tonymuse]

[@-6sd483]

[@stanleyrenty95]

Imagine Christian McBride messing up because you're so good.

[@robertbranco1126]

Wow

[@caiusKeys]

This has got to be the greatest dueling bass solo CK has ever seen -- outstanding job! Lotta talent in this band...

[@DeMariThompson]

Anyone else hear confirmation at 5:18 ;)

[@juliansanudo-kretzmann2497]

[@keepphlyinghigh5478]

диалог двух контрабасов закончился вничью. Для явной победы не хватило одному хватить другого контрабасом по голове

[@ryancox5097]

I came here looking to order a Christian wife from McDonald's.
