Yeah its fun cause i go in music school and because im a metalhead i often get juge etc etc like haha you metalhead go play master of puppet and its like wtf shut up i like what i like and i dont even listen to metallica
That death metal guy is doing nothing impressive with his bass. He's playing that stupid riff over and over, and contributing nothing sensible in terms of chord progression or harmony. Playing random atonal 16th lines on bass with no sense of harmonic movement isn't a feat in any capacity. This is embarrassing, and Victor and the other jazz guy are basically fooling and kidding around with this doofus. Put that guy playing any jazz standard and he would be completely out of his element.
@@jazzupthattriad1257 First, I am sorry you know nothing about how jams work. The point of a jam is for there to be a riff that everyone else plays off of. Now yes Webster could've played more but his role and he established this was to lay a groove and give something for the others to work with. Second I like you to listen to anything he's created and see how technical he actually can be. Hes dealt with a death metal band that plays at 250 bpm with only fingers. Another technical metal band eith weird jazz-prog time signatures and chords. Third I can definitely tell you dont play bass or appreciate the actual role of the bass guitar. I bid you a good day sir.
Alex is the best and seems like a such a cool person. Sucks not everyone sees that, but I know Vic recognizes his skill. He wouldn't be on the stage with him if he didn't.
Why do so many people treat this like a competition? Alex laid down a complex rhythm and stayed consistent and in-pocket. Wooten and that other dude laid down awesome and versatile leads over top. It was awesome, and people are trying to make it out like any of them are losers? Are you fucking nuts?!
Unfortunately social media has made everything a competition, but people must understand that music (and art in general) isn't something like horse race. Sure, i find this jam a little "bizarre" like someone else said, but that is what i was curious about.
6672rock not easy to play that at all, specially so consistently and for so many minutes. Not a fanof Cannibal but definitely an Alex fan. Monster player!
My friends and I oddly enough came up with victor Wooten/cannibal corpse hybrid track names. So this is obviously the perfect time to share. "Thumpin through the eyes of the dead", "slapped, popped and strangled", " "five fingers on the neck", "pick bass murderers".
Alex has never once claimed to be fluent in jazz, fusion or improvising. Knowing how humble he is he was probably floored to be on stage with giants like Wooten and Bailey - it's just cool that someone like Alex is now being given enough respect for the Berklee School to invite him to do a clinic there. Alex is a death metal player, and one of the best, hands down in the metal genre. Nobody should fault him for being willing and eager to step outside of his comfort zone and do something like this.
Damn man glad someone else here understands whats going on. Alex's art form is butchery and brutality, whereas Bailey and Wooten are world class musicians. I would be shitting my pants if I was up on stage with the two of them, I give Alex all the respect in the world for doing this. It's like Trey Azagtoth stepping on stage with Steve Vai and Joe Satriani for fuck sakes!
alteredperceptions5 hahaha you are so right LOOOOL...but Bailey and Wooten don't seem to give Aley credits for his performance. I might be wrong but it seems like that.
Is say Alex is just as good as other 2 just maybe not as theoretical on the instrument. But he's just as capable. All are incredible musicians. Shit I think Alex writes most of cannibal corpse music
the sheer endurance of alex webster in that jam is giving me finger cramps. I've seen all of these artists live in their separate projects, and I really wish that metal musicians could infiltrate the so called "higher art" forms of music more frequently. they deserve a place at the table
Exactly! Too bad the fretless bassist wasn't Jeroen Paul Thesseling. He could blow these guys away! Well okay, perhaps not Alex, but given that Jeroen has explored experimental music, as well as jazz, metal, classical, microtonal, and flamenco...yes, the best metal musicians do deserve a spot in the "higher art" forms of music.
I actually like some of the slow creepy harmonic stuff Steve layed down in the beginning, it complements the heavier riffage Victor and Alex are doing perfectly.
This shows the respect Alex warrants and deserves in the academic music community. He is a world class KILLER and the absolute KING of the death metal genre. I should know, his bass playing rattles my house at least once a week. He has panzer tank tone!!
Wow this is mindblowing! Death metal combining with jazz fusion, couldn't be better! That's fantastic for these such different bassists to get together and do this
Just goes to show you how much of a giant Victor Wooten is. I’d bet he doesn’t play much metal, just jumped right in with a guy like Alex Webster. Steve Bailey looks like he was doing sound check.
That's a way to improvise. He made me think of the late Mick Karn though. Check him up, even the band called Polytown, where he played with David Torn and Terry Bozzio. Karn did lots of similar airy textures there.
True Story: I remember watching this YEARS ago when it was just uploaded. I was immediately fascinated & wanted so much more. I watched some bass lessons from both Alex & Victor, & their bass guitars really spoke to me. I love how these guys appreciated bass & treat it with the utmost respect, I then discovered Les Claypool, & I officially purchased a 5 String Ibanez Bass. I now own 4 Bass guitars & I thank you for this upload immensely! Bless you all!
Alex webster is one of those bassists that I love but hate. He is so fucking awesome but because of his insane technical capabilities I feel like I'm not able to even play a simple rythym. He is just so great.
Actually by reading some of these posts quite a lot of people don't understand the groove he is laying down even vic and bail looked a bit puzzled to begin with till they found the spot in parts. then again most these guys probably don't listen to death metal.
8Seven65 me too. i'm a keyboardz warrior. legit. can we form a gang and pick on them? because these losers need to taught a lesson. we'll show them. oh yeah and i'm shit hot at guitar hero too i can kick my mom's ass.
I thunk you are mistaken because im typing from my cellphone so they are not as good as they should given my perspective of how it sounds from a cellphone speaker and my shitty ear trying to imagine something better to say that havent been said yet... Oh and i respect these musicians but not their play style because i dont like to hear things that are out of time /tone or my musical comfort zone. And i don't understand what a jam is, so they should have played one by metallica
I love it! They sound like a funky rocket spaceship with a massive engine chugging along thru the empty cold vastness of space, the rotting creatures inside forced to work its gears and consoles as it slides into the ever expanding universe
Wow. Alex Webster just blows these two no-names right off the stage. Shows you how classy Alex is. Picking two members from the audience to play with him. I bet these guys will remember this moment for the rest of their lives. Just kidding. Three great players.
Dude, every bass player should accept the superiority of Vic Wooten and Steve Bailey. Probably even Alex does. Today's music (even tech death) owes lots of things to Wooten (if you listen the band called The Faceless you'll know)
I think Steve and Victor didn't know what to play here. Probably not a scale/mode they are used to. Would be interesting to see what Alex would play as a lead over that himself. Also, would be cool to see all of them switch, have Victor play a rythm part and the others lead etc, it wouldn't be so repetitive.
Maggai I can see that. Though Victor appears to be MUCH more comfortable than Steve, and it shows through Victor's playing. Where as Steve looks just plain confused.
Courtland Sedlachek To an extent I agree. Wooten and Webster definitely shined and Bailey was just okay. He's a beast for his genre, no one quite like him, but yeah, he was uncomfortable with this. That being said, I think he always LOOKS uncomfortable. He just has that weird vibe in himself and his playing. But it works for his genre. Just didn't work quite as well here. Still love all three of these monsters!
+Maggai Not very accessible {yes i did copy n paste that word for the spelling!} bass line though,Jesus Alex we know you can play fast just play summat more jazzy bluesy!
Am i dreaming? this is the best thing ive seen since a long long time!!! Alex Webster coming from a death metal background feat Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey!! This is an evidence that there is a god who orchestrates things we call "coincidences"
That's the difference between a bass player and a musician bass player, i bet victor wooten hasn't ever play death metal but he can take the control of the situation and improvise based on the riff that alex webster is playing, amazing video, the better I've seen on ages
This was rad. Steve Bailey clearly isn't vibing on it and was actually a bit awkward despite being a great bassist. Wooten was hip though. Very cool meeting of very different minds.
lot being said in the comments 'bout the trio. I want to give a shout out to the drummer! He's tight in how he sounds and loose in how he looks and feels. He's MUSICAL! PS Wooten is amazing! He could easily replace a CC guitarist for a solo piece or a riff or two. Blends in and digs what Alex is doing! Blew my mind yet again...
First time I have seen Alex Webster being stressed and sweating... imagine they tell you: "So, yeah dude, just do a base, nothing fancy, whatever you feel. Oh, by the way, Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey will play something upon your base."... Jesus. I almost felt the whole weight upon Alex. Maybe one of the best/most amazing and suffered moments of his carreer.
There is talent in every genre 🥰 This is the perfect display to respect one another 👏 Obviously Alex is extremely handy and talented on bass but doesn't mean you can't have fun and jam with him 😁 This was fun to watch anyway I loved this very much 🥰 just connect with people and have fun with it 😊 this was beautiful 😍
I'm a fan of Webster, but this was pretty underwhelming. That said, I think it shows just how flexible Wooten is, and how incapable Bailey is when outside his comfort zone.
***** You're suggesting that Bailey WASN'T terrible in this video? He's a far more talented bassist than I am... but I would have done a significantly better job than him in this situation. That's not hating, that's just the truth. He was out of his element and completely incapable of adjusting. He had to watch WOOTEN in order to have ANY idea of what to play. He was lost. Period. I guess I didn't get the memo where certain musicians have reached a level where they are no longer subject to people pointing out their weaknesses.
7 years later and I still can't get over how bad Steve Bailey is in this video. I had to come back to make sure I wasn't misremembering. I wasn't. 3:41 lol. I think my 6-year-old wrote that same line.
now this is an epic moment!! i wish those kind of things happen more often at my music school hahaha. i guess it's a big privilege to be studying in berklee :)
He has NO IDEA how to join this jam. Alex just spent 7 minutes straight flawlessly and consistently playing the most heavy thing he’s heard in years. In B diminished as well. Not happy hunting grounds for most people.
One of the things that separates Cannibal Corpse, and also Suffocation, from other death metal bands is having a bass player who knows how to bring the funk when necessary without letting it dominate.
Alex : I'm gonna drop a heavy groovy bass line
Woten : I'm gonna solo over it like a boss
Steve : well, I'm just gonna fuck around with harmonics
steve,.."well im just gonna play the bass like iv never picked up a bass in me life"
@@smofla13hard disagree bud. Man knows what he's doing. Texturally brilliant here considering the bassline he's having to improv over.
@@tarkenton3895 He's adding nothing whilst also being in the way of two players at once.
This has got to be the most bizarre jam session of all time.
i vote for the jam session with squarepusher, guthrie govan and jamie lidell to be the most bizarre
But it was cool tho
@@mjj1017 beep beep
nay but cool in the way
Alex Webster is an absolute animal on bass guitar. Definitely a different style than the other guys but Alex is an absolute machine.
Something about Victor Wooten smiling and bobbing his head to an Alex Webster groove makes me happier than I can really articulate.
So true. For me it really shows how limitless music is. A jazz/funk bassist enjoying a friggin death metal groove. So sweet.
Same
dude im with you hahaah
its cool to see a death metal musician getting some respect from peers of a different genre. All these guys are monsters in their field.
Yeah its fun cause i go in music school and because im a metalhead i often get juge etc etc like haha you metalhead go play master of puppet and its like wtf shut up i like what i like and i dont even listen to metallica
That death metal guy is doing nothing impressive with his bass. He's playing that stupid riff over and over, and contributing nothing sensible in terms of chord progression or harmony. Playing random atonal 16th lines on bass with no sense of harmonic movement isn't a feat in any capacity. This is embarrassing, and Victor and the other jazz guy are basically fooling and kidding around with this doofus. Put that guy playing any jazz standard and he would be completely out of his element.

@@mast_adan6114I was gonna say the same thing but you beat me to it
Alex is the best and seems like a such a cool person. Sucks not everyone sees that, but I know Vic recognizes his skill. He wouldn't be on the stage with him if he didn't.
to hold that bassline over 8 mins is just brutal.
Yeah dude, my forearms would be fried after one minute at that pace.
@DanielBx orly
fuckin brutal man!
This is nothing for Alex Webster
Why do so many people treat this like a competition? Alex laid down a complex rhythm and stayed consistent and in-pocket. Wooten and that other dude laid down awesome and versatile leads over top. It was awesome, and people are trying to make it out like any of them are losers? Are you fucking nuts?!
Most people just aren’t tolerant to other styles of music however much they say they are their just not
lol "that other dude"
@@derekwillis8113 other dude lol haha

Exactly, and you’re not hearing these guys doing what they’re capable of
Kudos also to Alex Webster for laying down such a heavy, grinding bass line.
6672rock not easy to play that at all, specially so consistently and for so many minutes. Not a fanof Cannibal but definitely an Alex fan. Monster player!
I can't BELIEVE this exists...alex webster with steve and victor?! No way.
I was thinking the exact same thing :D
I couldn’t believe it when I saw it in the suggested videos
My friends and I oddly enough came up with victor Wooten/cannibal corpse hybrid track names. So this is obviously the perfect time to share. "Thumpin through the eyes of the dead", "slapped, popped and strangled", " "five fingers on the neck", "pick bass murderers".
"I see trees of green, why can't I breathe?, still I see, dead on the table, try to move and I think to myself what a wonderful world"
Funked with a knife.
LOL! a man after my own heart. Victor Wooten and Alex Webster, how can you go wrong?
Force fed broken strings
Knife to the Face awesome
This is probably the longest he's ever gone without headbanging while playing bass.
Marc Pelosi he looks like he’s about to start windmilling his head through 90% of this
Haha
sounds like a jam session in an insane asylum
My left hand would seize up and fall off if I played Alex's baseline for 7 mins. Straight. Impressive.
Alex has never once claimed to be fluent in jazz, fusion or improvising. Knowing how humble he is he was probably floored to be on stage with giants like Wooten and Bailey - it's just cool that someone like Alex is now being given enough respect for the Berklee School to invite him to do a clinic there.

+green dragon Alex does write most of the music for CC. He knows his theory, he demonstrates that in their studio footage. He's damn good.
Shuff It definitely underated. Seems like a nice guy too

This jam perfectly explains what its like in my head everyday 😂
This reminds me a bit of that jam from the beavis and butthead movie when they're tripping
I'm a pure deathmetaller, but this was fkng awesome. Excellent dark groove, superb mix of various textures.
I actually like some of the slow creepy harmonic stuff Steve layed down in the beginning, it complements the heavier riffage Victor and Alex are doing perfectly.
The most impressive part of this video is the colour of steve bailey's shoes.
Right! Lol I thought I was the only one who noticed..
The most violent shade of yellow ever
Its more confortable look directly to the sun
This shows the respect Alex warrants and deserves in the academic music community. He is a world class KILLER and the absolute KING of the death metal genre. I should know, his bass playing rattles my house at least once a week. He has panzer tank tone!!
I expected Alex to play jazz, but suddenly Victor and Steve started to play death metal.
Proof that Victor Wooten can do all music genres in bass
Man ngl victor absolutely killed it here. Damn
Is this a genre?
Wow this is mindblowing! Death metal combining with jazz fusion, couldn't be better! That's fantastic for these such different bassists to get together and do this
It’s weird how different all three of these guys make what’s basically the same instrument sound.
Just goes to show you how much of a giant Victor Wooten is. I’d bet he doesn’t play much metal, just jumped right in with a guy like Alex Webster.
Steve Bailey looks like he was doing sound check.
Victor actually played in a progressive metal band called Octavision. They only released one song tho, not sure what happend afterwards.
my thought exactly!
That's a way to improvise. He made me think of the late Mick Karn though. Check him up, even the band called Polytown, where he played with David Torn and Terry Bozzio. Karn did lots of similar airy textures there.
Didnt he play 4 a while with Nitro??

Had to be said
i thought bailey made this whole thing so much better. he was basically the keyboard
Agree @@paveantelic7876
Alex webster is one of those bassists that I love but hate. He is so fucking awesome but because of his insane technical capabilities I feel like I'm not able to even play a simple rythym. He is just so great.
Great thing he has his own lessons you can buy and possibly approach his level with plenty of practice
Two comments.
1. The drummer does not understand the groove Alex is laying down at all.
2. Victor Wooten is inhuman. He's fantastic.
Actually by reading some of these posts quite a lot of people don't understand the groove he is laying down even vic and bail looked a bit puzzled to begin with till they found the spot in parts. then again most these guys probably don't listen to death metal.
@@Jimbob-gw7jp yeah, same opinion. the drummer didn't understand the groove. Can't blaim him though, decent job nonetheless.
Its so cool from Victor and Alex to let a fan to join the jam. Such great guys!
I just came here to point out who I think is bad from my computer chair.

I’ll be the guy that says that there are no winners here, they’re all just different! Bwahahahahaha
Ok this is one of the best comments i've seen around here and pretty much sums up what YT is all about
Alex's bass sounds like that song from the original 'Terminator' when Arnold is chasing them on the road, in the bike scene. Pretty badass !
He sounds like a chainsaw riding a Harley.
I love it! They sound like a funky rocket spaceship with a massive engine chugging along thru the empty cold vastness of space, the rotting creatures inside forced to work its gears and consoles as it slides into the ever expanding universe

+Bubba Zed Victor Wooten is a name one of the best players every here can do stuff ALEX cant

Former Berklee alumni 92-95. Never,ever know who will show,or what will pop off at ANY given day! Great stuff! I love that place!
I've seen this video a lot of times and I love it, big fan of Alex Webster and Wooten
Always love watching colabs from different genres
Victor and Bailey's approaches to this jam are fun AF! Very fun and very grateful this jam exists (:

This is so unorthodox. In the best way possible. Haha. How awesome.
a whole band of bass! thank you from my ears & heart thump
No egos, no slouches, just pure MAGIC and love of music..... Oh, happy birthday today Mr. Webster!!(=

Bad ass! 3 of my favorite players, as well as some of the nicest guys I've ever met. Great jam
Warwick, fodera and Spector in just one place. I love it

Oh Steve.... What are you doing...?
I agree.Hated what he “contributed “.Out of tune and didn’t especially love what he did even if it was.
Victor Wooten and Alex Webster?? I bet u never thought u see this one coming ^_^ this is just awesome

Why does Steve look like he's afraid of his own instrument?
It's doing weird things lol
Probably cuz he needs more strings than the other two LOL

Well be a.....I never thought I would see......well i'll be damned :-)
WHOA what a lineup!!!!
Alex Webster deserves his spot at the top with all the great bass players of all time.
This was an epic jam.
one of the best uploads on youtube.......of anything.......ever........please tell me theres more footage?
Victor and Alex. Much fun. X
Had to send this to my old roommate/shipmate. He likes both.
Webster is the non stoping rythming machine!
After watching Steve Bailey lay down those cool licks, it makes me wish I kept my Dean 6-string fretless bass. That bass had the coolest sound ever!
For his tone and role in the jam, Victor may as well be playing a guitar!
This is Super-Storm!
GREAT POST! Thank you 8^)
What an awesome bass jam
what a tone on that slappy bass! great !
One of the things that separates Cannibal Corpse, and also Suffocation, from other death metal bands is having a bass player who knows how to bring the funk when necessary without letting it dominate.
Alex Webster and Victor Wooten,, mind explosion!!
fuck yeah!! this is one hell of a jam session
This is even better than the NAMM session with Chick Corea and Glen Benton.
I flipped so much shit when I saw Alex Webster and Victor Wooten together.
You know it brother
That's how my brain feels after listening to my favorite music genres in one day
Seems I'm the only one who can appreciate what Steve's doing
Yup.To me,most of what he was doing,even if he was doing some advanced microtonal shit,sounded like garbage.He is a great player but this was 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
What Bailey was doing.Loved Webster and Wooten
Yeah, I think so.
The fuck, Steve?
Lol
xd
'never played with a freight train'
A nice feather for Alex's cap.
Pretty cool
The bass line (from Alex) reminds me of Criteria for a Black Widow (Annihilator)
Epic, just truly epic.
anybody got tabs for alex's part? lol, I would play it all day
This is literally what I was listening when I was 18-19 years old: Bass Extremes and Cannibalism Corpse!
