I'm 67 and shaken like a leaf on a tree and my damn foot is stomping like my shoe on fire...cept I'm barefoot and trying ta put it out and I'm smiling...yeah dats some funk when ya caint control yer own ass...thanks fellas nice groove...peace!
Stank of the Stankiest, Vic brought it to a whole new level. I love this mans gentle spirit and his approach to Bass playing and life. JD Blair is incredibly funky as well !!
This is how tight every rhythm section should be! I love how JD is such an amazing drummer and he only plays bass drum, snare, high hat, and a few symbols!
@nomidubidabi I'm not the user who had this posted previously. I used to watch this all the time and when it was taken down I was crushed. I hunted around the internet and found another copy of it, so glad I did.
I saw Vic in New Orleans a few years before the hurricane, at the house of blues. I had seen him and listened to him a lot already, but his brother Reggie was in the band, and the two of them.. it was just insane. So much genius in one family 🤯🎶🔥absolutely incredible. 🔥🎶
Maaaaaaaan, this brings back memories! I recorded this on VHS back in the day and that tape got me through college during the late 90s. Vic is an alien
1:52 VW: Yo JD? JD: What? VW: That was funky JD: Yeah. VW: I mean that was real funky JD: Yeah! VW: Almost too funky! JD: Yeah! VW: But it wasn't too funky. JD: Naaa.. VW: It can never get too funky. JD: Na you right about that.. VW: But that was funky. JD: Yeah it was funky.. VW: Let's do it again. Hit it!
That was funk theater. You can't get funkier than that boy. You can maybe get as funky, but funkier than that? not possible. The cat on drums man. You can see why Victor plays with him. ✌️JD + VW
THE GREATEST BASSIST ON THIS PLANET GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT
[05:25] SHEEITT... he coulda walked on that loop until the cows came home [06:25] Aww, see - now the boy done gone CRAZY !!! OMAGAWD, I CAN'T STOP MY HEAD FROM BOPPIN' - SOMEBODY CALL 9-1-1... Q U I C K !!!
My brother changed the way people approach electric bass. Like Larry Graham, Jaco Pastorius, James Jamerson, Victor has fundamentally Influenced the way the electric bass is approached...annnnnd...he is funky!
I uploaded this video 12 years ago after finding it on some random Japanese website and realizing it needed to be saved for the world. This is when TH-cam still has a 10 minute max upload, which is why the tail end is cutoff. Never did I think it would have this many views and appreciation 12 years later, not that it surprises me however. Your family is a force to behold in music. Thank you for all you have given the world, not just Victor.
This is one of the deadliest grooves in the history of music

The real example óf fúnk
You ain’t lying
He is the Man !
@@pauldarrow4970 literally 🤝🏽🔥
the dialogue between JD and Victor makes this the best version.
Ur right

"Take it across the water..." I get it. He means the bridge. So cool.
Wow i wooshed on that one for years until i read this
That line was *"Almost TOO Fonky!".*
2:30 so cool
Wow, it took me years to figure it out!
The most amazing thing here is that they were still keeping time at the beginning of the song where they stop playing and talk to eachother.
They stayed in that pocket!
Holy fuck yes
Was hoping someone noticed. I feel much better now.
So fucking badass
guys, maybe they had the metronome ... ahah
HEY JD!!!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEE??????????
2:00 "You can never get too funky..." No truer words have ever been spoken.
Experiment Eight tell that to vulfpeck
@@dominicmason3637 vulfpeck is very funky, no joke, but vic's playing just hits different for me...
@@dominicmason3637 got any examples? He's really good but I don't know of anything that grooves like anything victor does
Still loving this in 2021, will never stop watching this!
2022 and still with ya

The best bass player of the universe
"funky bass in da house" gets me every time lol love it.
+John Macdonald as 90s as it gets, that one
Victor is awesome, I'm pretty sure anyone watching this video knew that already. But seriously - JD Blair - the drummer every bassist always wanted.
this shit just continues to blow my mind every single time i watch it
GharmanNL I hate being a bass player because of this clip
I love how JD knows when to drop the volume down to a 1 on a scale of 100 and just get out of the way, then bring it back to full-on funk.
JD's snare tone is super sweet.
Stank of the Stankiest, Vic brought it to a whole new level. I love this mans gentle spirit and his approach to Bass playing and life. JD Blair is incredibly funky as well !!
I think it's really amazing that they can make this much music with just a bass guitar and drums.
I have to watch this performance at least one time each week.
How can 42 people dislike this video? This is still as funky as it was the day it aired on Jazz Central.
Those 42 people have no pockets
42 people that play the piccolo, I guess 😂
this whole video is possibly the best thing i will ever see
This is how tight every rhythm section should be! I love how JD is such an amazing drummer and he only plays bass drum, snare, high hat, and a few symbols!

You are a hero

This has been the best 10 minutes of my life.

No truer words could ever be said
Out of all the versions of this song I've heard I enjoyed this one more
Victor es una leyenda viviente...genio del bajo....amo su música!!!
Take it across the water, I love that bridge
This is THE BEST version of this song I've ever heard!
...it's MY personal favorite anyway.
Glad to see that I'm not the only one hosting it.

Simply the best "U Can't Hold No Groove" video out there.
"Lets hop on that swing set" yeeeahh keep it phunky
1:10 replay button. You're welcome. Like to be on top!
I don't think it gets any funkier than this
It can ALWAYS get funkier.
Can’t never get too funky...
Vulfpeck: it gets funkier
Oh it can get way funkier than that just throw Bootsy Collins In the Mix most definitely
The version of this song ever.
The bass and drums are one. They should always be tight like this. Feeding off of each other.
Victor, just one word: unbelievable!!
FUNKY BASS IN DAH HOUSE YEH BABY! that part always cracks me up!
THIS SUMMER HE PLAYS IN SPAIN! I CANT WAIT
Donde??
SO EPIC THE WAY THEY TALK THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PERFORMANCE!
LOVE IT!!!
2022 and still the best piece of music 😍
So good... Love the show here too.... So, so good
That was funk theater.
You can't get funkier than that boy. You can maybe get as funky, but funkier than that? not possible.
The cat on drums man. You can see why Victor plays with him. ✌️JD + VW

Fab groove Viktor and just drop so good with J
Hands down grooviest thing on earth
Seeing Victor tonight, so excited!
NOW THAT'S GROOVING!
Victor is my absolute hero
"Lets hop on the swing set!" I laughed so hard at that
"Hey buddy come on do it to it... Yeeees." So cool
6:54 - 8:00 just groove for groove and grooving for moving the groove in the groove. no more.
this is amazing!
Thank you for bringing me here, youtube algorithm😁😁 damn
I love how he says "Watchu got" and leans over like genuinely expectantly
That was amazing!!!!!
No such thing as "too funky"! This rocks.
Ahhhhh 🤯....can't handle this level of funk.......my feet got a life on their own.....i'm not in control anymore......shit where are they going...😂

No more questions about who is the best bassist ever that has walked the earth
