"As most bass players know, Victor has an incredible ability to play the most highly technical music. In this DVD, you get a chance to watch his hands while he's playing some of his most popular tunes. Victor has a "thump-off" with his brother Regi, who plays guitar. Victor also plays with his long time friend, Oteil Burbridge. This DVD also shows how cool of a guy Victor really is! He has such a pleasing and simple talent to answer questions and is surprisingly humble. I originally ordered this and thought it was only 80 minutes. That is the run-time of the VHS, but the DVD has a run-time of 140 minutes due to the extra interview on the DVD. This is possibly the most helpful to bass players because he really shows you some cool stuff and more techniques than his onstage performance. Another thing to note; the video quality is just what you'd expect from a proffessionally produced DVD and the audio is superb considering most of it is a live performance. Overall this is a must buy for anyone who enjoys or plays slap bass or musicianship of the highest degree!"

Not only Entertaining but a great lesson video

"I am a guitar player who enjoys watching great musicians, no matter the instrument. And as I do like Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, I decided to purchase this video for entertainment. And entertaining it is with Vic slapping up a torm on the bass. However the extra cool part is when Regi(Vics older brother) comes out on the guitar. Regi plays this beatiful song using a two-hand tapping technique unlike anything i have ever seen in before. I watched this video over and over just to learn that song Regi plays and to enjoy watching Vic lay down some serious Funk. This is a MUST-BUY for ANY bass player and a Vic fan. So go ahead and order it here, cause you wont find it anywhere else!"

"I just got done watching this and WOW! I have had his Bass Extremes video for a few years and watched it a number of times and I thought it was excellent until I saw this (it is really good, but this just is much more about Victor Wooten and his technique and style).



In a Q&A session Victor explains his unique technique over almost 10 minutes and your really get a feel for how he is doing it (and WOW!). This DVD is worth SO much more than I paid for it just for the Q&A session alone. Plus the things that he talks about in that are very relevant for all musicians, not just bass players.



My opinion of Victor Wooten went up after watching this DVD, which I did not think was possible."

Inspirational and informative.

"Victor Wooten is a master bass player, and this video captures all his great chops and musicality. He has raised the level of bass playing--and watching this video opened me up to new ideas in my playing. Well worth the money. Really entertaining, too."
