Victor Wooten Performs Amazing Grace Live at The 2010 NAMM Show

[@fen57]

He's not grooving...The groove is wootening !

[@Charely1925]

More like Victor Groovin'

[@tlskls7655]

I had the honor to perform with Victor, and my son was able to take his Master Class as a young bass player of 15. Victor is the kindest and most inspiring teacher. My son played Amazing Grace at our church and blew those Presbyterians hair back! Victor was so encouraging.

[@Bhong666]

Anyone else get goosebumps listening to that?

[@MenelionFR]

Incredible, just incredible! It's the first video of him I'm watching (thanks George Collier!), but he must be a genius.

[@subann]

arguably the goat of bass players

[@peonerovv1770]

He is. I recommend reading his books as well. Changed my life musically and not only

[@maxonmendel5757]

​@@peonerovv1770same. his book is a spiritual masterpiece

休日の家にいるお父さんみたいな格好でめっちゃかっこいい演奏するのほんとすき

[@swans_22]

victor wooten is so talented...best bassist ever

[@numberonegraduate]

The whole song in harmonics are you kidding me.

[@JohnBrooking4]

I listened to this arrangement for years before I ever saw it live or on video. I was always amazed by the bent harmonic at the end. I couldn't figure out how was it even POSSIBLE to bend a harmonic! Then when I saw it live, it was a real "DUH!" moment. It never occurred to me that he was just turning the tuning peg! Sometimes the simplest solutions are the least obvious, and therefore the most brilliant. (Or maybe this is just a trick that bass players have known about forever, but not being a bass player, I didn't.)

[@Indivicivet]

@@JohnBrooking4 btw, you can also bend the string between the pegs and the neck!

[@xd-ot1lb]

@@Indivicivet good luck doing that with a bass 🤣

[@Silentassassins229]

@@Indivicivet i believe its called bending behind the nut. Very cool technique

[@adamlaxmusic]

I assure you he’s not kidding. It’s is as mind blowing as you think and it sounds.

[@VoxRox1]

I really enjoyed this. I am a lead guitar player,and I don't think Bass players get the credit they deserve. So if you play with a Bass player,shake their hand and thank them for "slappin' da bass".

[@dylsasteridk5540]

Thank you myself for slappin' da bass

[@mopsydaisy]

lead bass players should not mingle with guitarists ;-D

[@harry2928]

Agreed, agreed. ++ bass players of the world. 💥 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 💥

[@BiggTony1776]

8/21/2024. He still is amazing

[@aminsimonndeme6017]

I love you Sir Victor ❤❤❤

Abraham Laboriel and Victor Wooten are the best ever..!!! God Bless' u both..!!

[@drake9606]

ほんといい表情で弾くよなぁ

[@kiriikukrichr3341]

何度観ても何度聴いても驚かされる。 こんなこと出来る人間がいるんだなあ。

[@RE4Maverick]

This was probably the best time he played this piece. Absolutely incredible.

[@TehRealObli]

I had this playing for 2 hours today and never once considered listening to anything else...

[@macmcallister7089]

Here’s your ten year reminder to listen again

[@aznboy0789]

i never get tired of listening to this..

[@MrAbeo]

0:00 - 4:56 ... the BEST part!

[@ChapatiMan]

Funny

[@heavyrocknroll]

By far the most beautiful Bass Playing I've ever seen and heard - I love Victor Wooten's Style, He tought me so much more than years of technique learning could ever do... (the Groove Workshop DVD is great :-) He is an absolutely symphatic person. A man who plays THAT way, must be a good man. I hope, someday everybody will understand his message. Peace :-)

[@isaiah3g.]

I absolutely get your comment and agree.

[@JonasClark]

This seems to be in every live Wooten show... and I'm glad for that. It's always wonderful.

[@bamzart5761]

0:41 That was cool stretching the string to get that perfect note!!!

[@harryfelix7236]

It's the harmonics for me..."11 years ago".....imagine him now

[@kevinschaller7481]

Thank you Lord for Amazing Grace.

[@beeps123]

Thank u lord for ur Grace.

[@MrNapoleanMortimer]

1:57 damn that was tight and he knew it!

[@hunterfagan6272]

I cant imagine what music will be like when marcus and victor are gone:(

[@ShadamAran]

At least we'll have Joe Dart.

[@fernandoortiz1849]

Dont worry there is always someone to save the day, when Jaco died these guys appeared who knows what would be in the bass future

[@EMan-tp4zp]

i hate being at the age where all my idols, in all fields im passionate about, disappear. Robin Williams, Chris cornell, Tony Bourdain. Depression hits everyone. All these guys were game changers. Someone will come around doing somethng new. Music is ebb and flow

[@LucilleBrawl17]

Felix Patorius is very good in his own right.

[@nou_en]

Human die but there legacy will be here

[@epkroll]

Never ceases to amazing me, no matter how many times I hear this.

[@michaelbismarckii9139]

That "tapped" bend at 1:59 is just too good

[@gurumajuindonesia]

Incredibly amazing

[@wpoon1]

A lovely song played by Victor Wooten.....................

[@kakabass]

Sou fã....o melhor de todos os tempos sem duvida!!!!

[@danilopolar6476]

i'm comment 420!!! that is dope. Listening in 2021 on the 26th of the first month of the year. It snowed today and I got a text from her, cant wait to hear her voice again. You are an inspiration to all bass players (myself included). love the way you tickle those strings man!

[@xiaxinchook5484]

真的绝了十年前第一次看，以后每年都会看一次这段SOLO 赏音悦目 耳

[@nichodemussampah8124]

I can't stop watching this video

[@darpope2752]

The most humble and loving person I ever had the opertunity to meet. If you don't know, he wrote a book, The Music Teacher. It's an innovative, funny little story that outlines things any musician can use to become great. And the moral of the story is that we all have the obligation to teach each other what we know about life, and music. AND, that being "different" can be both entertaining and useful. He tells the story about giving his daughter a "Daddy doll" for Christmas. I want a Victor Wooten doll to keep atop my bass amp to inspire me. Thank God for letting me live at a time when I was exposed to the music of The Beatles, and Victor Wooten!

[@Maaarie1794]

This piece music is probably a favorite of angels in paradise.

[@TheMetatron333]

Victor Wooten is a magic black man like the guy in The Green Mile.

[@theodavis7517]

You're right, he brings his instrument to life.

[@ぬい-v6z]

not coffee

[@rebeccastout4785]

Victor Wooten is magic. Period. His color has nothing to do with it. And he is a real person, not a character in a movie. AND he has never been in prison, as far as I know. Anyways...he's VICTOR...not "like the guy in The Green Mile". Please! :-)

[@nou_en]

@@rebeccastout4785 ugh he is just trying to make a funny referance no racism involved ✌🏽

[@paulypoobrain2929]

rebecca stout I think he is trying to say Mr Wooten here is an angel with magical fingers much like John Coffee.

[@davidtang2082]

why does it make me crying in joy？

He’s not human, and I’m good with that! 🤯
