Holy Trinities - Tambourine (Hosted by Jack Stratton)

[@magnusandersen7057]

"You've got to study both, i can't do either" Words to live by

[@pyrotechnic96]

That legit got a guffaw out of me, the timing is impeccable

[@GoFarAway5338]

I spoke with Jack some time ago. At that meeting, he promised a bass trilogy in exchange for some confidential info on tambourines. As of yet, the trade is one-sided.

[@caffeineadvocate]

Some people may be watching this thinking, "is this satire?". Let me tell you about the 4-hour triangle clinic that I once attended.....

[@chubbynubby24]

I'm enthralled. Go on...

[@jjhassy]

caffeineadvocate please please continue

[@caffeineadvocate]

nubbyboy24 - I'm not sure how detailed you'd like me to get. I can say that every facet of each percussive instrument is incredibly complicated.... Aaaaand I'm not giving free triangle lessons today. ;)

[@phantasos12]

...I'm sure you'll finish the story when your Abel.

[@Merthalophor]

I was playing as a percussionist in an ensemble (played the drums + xylophone + many different smaller percussion instruments), and I can confirm. They seem so simple compared to the "big" instruments like piano, drums, violin etc. Of course, you pick them up much more quickly, but there is much more to it than people think who aren't musicians. To play a shaker for instance requires quite some practice, the sound is a bit delayed and you have to be able to quickly switch from one movement to another one. Plus, to play a big piece of music requires a huge amount of focus and dedication, even if your sheet only consists of quarters and pauses. And the tamburine is way more nuanced than a shaker.

[@onceuponasynth]

The visual style, direction, writing, humor, information, music, art direction, acting, narration, effects, everything is just superb in these videos. I could binge watch a whole season of holy trinities.

[@ExAerospace]

Someone please forward this to Netflix. Netflix needs good music content that isn't "So the track was as great but missing something so I says try the wah wah Jimi and and that was how Voodoo Chile happened." FFS.

[@szrnkabela]

There should come more education with Vulf Phase 2

[@Pondstar]

fast forward about a year: Jack gets Sandra Crouch on a Fearless Flyers track.

[@dansaunders1655]

Nobody can assemble a rhythm section like Jack.

[@bugleberryfancam5820]

I want to be Jack. He's got the look, he's got the talent, he doesn't care what others think. He's Jack Stratton.

[@Guilherme-md7vw]

Like you said, he's the perfect Jack because he owns being the Jack. Nobody can do Corn Bread better than you lol

[@BigDaddyWes]

Trust me, he cares what you think.

[@investigate3_11]

He's also got heartfelt lyrics.

[@husnainali-gn8bo]

Stop watching this soldier a red spy is in the base

[@Gofaw]

@@husnainali-gn8bo red spy is in the base?

[@markhawksford785]

Can't wait to see the Holy Trinities of bass.

[@The10000lbGorilla]

1. Joe Dart on the Fender Bass 2. Joe Dart on the Fender Bass 3. Joe Dart on the Fender Bass

exactly. joe dart is not only the #3 funkyboi, but he is also #2 AND #1. watch out.

[@sakondisable]

3. Joe Dart on the Stingray

[@KimbloMakes]

Holy Trinities of clapping. Show me the light, Jack.

[@jabelsjabels]

I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE!

[@alejandror8749]

Just check flamenco musicians haha

[@thecrunchytaco9780]

clapping music... look it up

[@HBCrigs]

Next thing they tell me is gear doesn't matter I'm like but "what gloves I need?"

[@Benjaminrob.smith222]

@@HBCrigs YOU’RE NOT VERSATILE

[@jimmypownall4409]

Jack strattons in depth knowledge of both music history and production blows my mind.

[@AlexBallMusic]

And it's things like this that are why we love Vulf with all of our heart.

[@victorsoldano1550]

Holy Trinity vulf moments: Joe Dart on the fender bass 3 part live harmonies on Christmas in L.A. Jack Dancing on a field.

[@lukedarcy8681]

Victor Soldano I'm sorry but what do you mean by the second one

[@victorsoldano1550]

Luke Darcy go to a live performance

[@benjaminconsterdine2077]

Luke Darcy in pretty much every live performance they do when they perform Christmas in LA, they split the audience into 3: tenor, alto, soprano, and get them to sing the words "In LA" at the different notes to make a 3 part harmony

[@SamSandovals]

jack stratton is all you've ever wanted to be and more

[@DylanCanzurlo]

This was hilarious. Absolutely beautiful production and editing too. Awesome job.

[@Vulf]

ROB STENSON

[@Theosx6913]

I thought he was just a banjo player

[@PauliReinert]

2017 was a good year for tambourine videos.

[@allamericandude15]

I have scientific evidence that Jack Stratton's favorite song is "I Want You Back" by the Jackson 5. More tests are needed to be certain.

[@hickorymccay2994]

that's a good song

[@adumbberg]

Honorable mention to Billy Martin. Best tambourinist I've ever seen. Check out Billy Martin Clinic PASIC 2011. Tambourining starts just shy of 6 minute mark.

[@Natsters46]

I'm gonna need a full version of that game winner cover immediately

[@ThinkPlease]

Jack, your silly creativity never ceases to amaze me. Keep it up brother.

[@timwillis141]

Honorable mention. Bill withers and quite possible his grandmother

[@timtheenchanter3563]

Just when you didn't think you could love jack any more than you already did

[@rmh_223]

I have been told I have a pretty dry sense of humor and half the time people that don't me on a personal level become really confused and don't know how to handle it. I have to remember to force a smirk or something to let them know everything is fine and that I'm not being serious. I guess I just have a really dead face when making light of situations. Even some of my closer friends second guess themselves every once in a while. I can tell Jack probably deals with these problems as well. Catches you off guard for sure lol

[@chioma916]

THAT GAME WINNER A CAPELLA good lord

[@34jake34]

Seriously one of their best songs

[@cappntone]

I'm actually arranging an acapella version of game winner!! We're singing later this spring

[@chioma916]

Chris Tone upload it!!!! then come to this thread and lemme know!!!! so pumped for that

[@cappntone]

Sure thing, no promises on the quality being super great, however.

[@chioma916]

Chris Tone potatoes welcome

[@ethan-loves]

Is this man simply a genius?

[@sebuteo]

Fantastic! A transcendent tambourine epiphany... thank you Jack & co.

[@aluminumchew]

this band gives me hope in the american music tradition

[@DrewMcIntire]

There is a smoking crater where my desk used to be from hitting the like button so hard.

[@s8terseeyal8teryah8t]

Drew McIntire SMASHED that like button

[@econmachete]

Y'sheichoyach's Law?!

[@hmmnemonic]

it's a hebrew saying. two words - yashar and koach. it means "your strength/energy should be straight/righteous"

[@bernadettebread]

I went in skeptical of how substantially one tambourine player could be considered greater than another and then that Sandra Crouch tambourine solo had me cackling in spiritual ecstasy. I have much to learn from this man.

[@awight]

OMG that slow, 80s synth Tambourine Man outro... :-O

Show some respect here. It's MR. Tambourine Man to you.

[@gagslovedotcom]

Sadly it took me almost a minute before I could figure out what the melody i was recognizing was.

[@Louie4711]

Alex Wight yeah, sounded like Devo. I loved it!

[@ytsivran]

Holy shit please keep this series going

[@ThatLauraPerson]

This is fantastic, LOVE the production quality-> props to the director!!!!

[@scotty3034]

Jack is an American treasure.

[@ondra3835]

No I claim him for whole humanity

[@digitaldips]

ah the tambourine, so easy to play, so difficult to master. Can you do one for the Triangle?

[@JohnGottschalk]

"You gotta study both. I can't do either."

[@MrPopsnap]

i did not wake up expecting this video. i am very pleased

[@erikjensen4183]

Legend has it Jack plugged a MIDI cable into his urethra and the holy trinities were uploaded directly to KZbin

[@noahmay7708]

Gross.

[@paulwilkins9783]

Both of the Holy Trinity videos are 8:08 long. Gotta love that 808!!

[@yourboymalachi6228]

Never seen a more informational 8 minute video in my life

[@darren7110]

what's crazy about 2:10 is I bet Jack was playing the tambo along in his head (with no accompaniment track) and playing completely. on. beat. That's musicianship right there.

[@Gizerwizard]

Jack is like every one of us grade 5 kids that just discovered how to make films and upload them to KZbin. Except he never stopped

[@42nkapi]

I need as many more of these as I can get. Nothing beats the vibe of these videos

[@nealixd.3011]

A lot of folks don't know it, but Sandra Crouch is the fraternal twin sister of the legendary, late Andrae Crouch (and the Disciples). If you want to hear one of the greatest gospel groups ever, get your hands on some Andrae Crouch and the Disciples, the band you saw in this video with Sandra. Andrae sang/wrote songs and played the piano and organ.

[@McBeezy16]

Whoa that was incredibly informative and well produce and super weird in such a Vulf fashion.

[@ChiickenTM]

I want to hear a Holy Trinity of Theremin players by Joe Dart ... I think I've never heard his voice now that I think about it ... Mysterious but lovely man on the Fender bass.

[@PocketUnv]

Never thought I'd sit through a video on Tambourines and enjoy it. Well played sir, very well played.

[@jokinjoe5]

Holy Trinities of Bass when??

[@SPBTheHuman]

More of these please. I loved every minute of it.

[@treemer123]

easily the greatest youtube video there ever was and ever will be

[@becmec1730]

I REALLY want this to be a series, cause I need more of this in my life.

[@lptomtom]

Cool version of Hey Mr Tambourine Man at the end!

[@mootbooxle]

The Mr. Tambourine Man outro was a clever touch. :)

[@jakehermes4533]

Dude.....you need to do more of these. The inspiration is REAL

[@qrqluv]

i am so happy that you guys made this.. wow.. just amazing... you've changed the tambourine for me, and thusly, tambourine has changed my life.

[@grfhumpf]

I always wanted friends that appreciated this sort of thing.

[@srduncanbyu]

been SO eager for more holy trinities! so pumped right now

[@xandershawvlog]

I did not know it's possible to make Mr Tambourine man creepy and geeky. Well played.

[@lukebender3434]

Thoroughly entertaining and absolutely wonderful, please make more of these

[@mawllly]

Do me one Holy Trinities of the Cajon. A fun instrument that doesn't get enough appreciation

[@jamesmackay4529]

yep, i have no idea why, but i want loads more of this!

[@jgodin312]

Love the warbly synth-rendition of Mr. Tambourine Man at the end.

[@floatingdino]

Ahhhh jack is so endearing in everything he does

[@shiftyslc]

I know these must be time consuming and not at all lucrative to create but please never stop.

[@nicB7777]

More holy trinities, PLEASE!!! ❤❤❤👂

[@chanceboney9785]

This was fantastic and unexpected and I sincerely hope theres more videos like these.

[@avavii]

Magical, insightful, funny. Looking forward to the tour. :)

[@ZachTheGreek]

These are awesome. Do them often.

[@sayetka]

Life is relatively short yet so much more to learn than I could have ever imagined. 🤔

[@itsnopez]

I absolutely loved watching this video. Dope AF.

[@FlutterGuy121]

Nothing I love more than breakdowns of music theory.

[@zackgholikely8809]

This is my most favorite video of all time ever.

[@lockedowng]

legit new appreciation for the tambo

[@daniellingmusic]

Brilliant. Truly brilliant.

[@jabelsjabels]

I'm convinced that Goodhertz is just a front for a slow-developing but expertly-edited history of funk documentary series.

[@bhannahson]

really really enjoyed this, thanks Vulf. More please

[@mattlaurence2420]

This is great - thanks for sharing guys.

[@FransiscoDialga]

this video made me think about how fun it would be to laugh out loud to a video on youtube.com so then because i was thinking about how fun it would be so hard I did. Thank you.

[@TRUETOILETTENPAPIER]

when he hit the tambourine on his butt I fucking lost it hahaha what a damn genius

[@dielaughing73]

Love the Dylan outro

[@Lemwell7]

This is amazing. More please.

[@JamesSullivans]

I really enjoyed that. funny and informative

[@MylesCloutier]

Your music is the music of my ear drums. It beats in unison with my soul.

[@gadmas2670]

I'm not that much into music but this video is so well produced, damn. Keep it up

[@TheSoulMessiah]

this is the most HD video Jack Stratton has ever been in

[@daniellove4576]

Powerful and rich.

100% thought that little bubbling noise was my stomach for a bit there.

[@TheGoobsters]

this is one of the best videos I've ever seen

This is brilliant! Cheers!
