fiddle with a thyroid problem is my new favourite double bass insult
❤️❤️❤️
do you have any connection to jacob collier?
@@leotritt9809 read the description
@@jakobbruhspenning oh yeah thanks
I don't have a thyroid and I play the double bass 😂. Ironic, ain't it.
When even the bass player talks during the bass solo.
Hahahahhahahahaha
As a bass player, I resonate this remark.
So sad
I actually laughed out loud at this
😅
man's rapping with proper punctuation marks
it’s just talking
with rythm
Lol, good one.
spoken word moment
@@ninjireal quality comment
@Ninji well wdyk that's rap too.
People who can calmly/coherently talk while playing frighten me
its ez if your instrument is your life's work
@@jsswift87 you say that to any wind musician.
Especially if they play trumpet

Why is his voice so damn warm and charming 😭😭😭
RIGHT? chinese speakers will know 有磁性
george collier speaks chinese wow that's a cool fact
@@GeorgeCollier Taiwanese here, Chinese as first language, not knowing fully what that phrase's supposed to mean (well "magnetic voice" doesn't make that much sense to me) 😅
@@GeorgeCollier I’m Chinese but my Chinese is ass so…yea.I had no clue what you said.
@@henrychess3 it's like a charming/deep voice but there's no direct translation, i learned it because someone told me mine sounded like that while i was studying in HK haha
New favorite music genre: comedic jazz with a story and slight hints of schizophrenia.
The Jazz Discharge comes to mind
+
Anna Ross, Twisted
In that case, you might want to try ‘It’s Impossible To Sing and Play The Bass’ by Jay Leonhardt… and also ‘Failing’ by Tom Johnson
and a hint of misogyny just for fun
Love some jazz with a story arc 😂
in truth, aren't all musical pieces a story? for example:
Whores in this house
There's some whores in this house
There's some whores in this house
There's some whores in this house (hol' up)
I said certified freak, seven days a week
Wet ass pussy, make that pullout game weak, woo! (Ah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you fucking with some wet ass pussy
Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet ass pussy
Give me everything you got for this wet ass pussy
Beat it up, nigga, catch a charge
Extra large, and extra hard
Put this pussy right in yo' face
Swipe your nose like a credit card
Hop on top, I want a ride
I do a kegel while it's inside
Spit in my mouth, look at my eyes
This pussy is wet, come take a dive
Tie me up like I'm surprised
Let's role-play, I wear a disguise
I want you to park that big Mack truck right in this little garage
Make it cream, make me scream
Out in public, make a scene
I don't cook, I don't clean
But let me tell you, I got this ring (ayy, ayy)
Gobble me, swallow me, drip down the side of me (yeah)
Quick, jump out 'fore you let it get inside of me (yeah)
I tell him where to put it, never tell him where I'm 'bout to be
I run down on him 'fore I have a nigga running me
Talk yo' shit, bite your lip
Ask for a car while you ride that dick (while you ride that dick)
You ain't never gotta fuck him for a thing
He already made his mind up 'fore he came
Now get your boots and your coat for this wet ass pussy
He bought a phone just for pictures of this wet ass pussy
Pay my tuition just to kiss me on this wet ass pussy
Now make it rain if you wanna see some wet ass pussy
Look, I need a hard hitter, I need a deep stroke
I need a Henny drink, I need a weed smoker
Not a garden snake, I need a king cobra
With a hook in it, hope it lean over
He got some money, then that's where I'm headed
Pussy A-1, just like his credit
He got a beard, well, I'm tryna wet it
I let him taste it, and now he diabetic
I don't wanna spit, I wanna gulp
I wanna gag, I wanna choke
I want you to touch that lil' dangly thing that swing in the back of my throat
My head game is fire, punani Dasani
It's going in dry, and it's coming out soggy
I ride on that thing like the cops is behind me (yuh, ah)
I spit on his mic' and now he tryna sign me, woo
Your honor, I'm a freak bitch, handcuffs, leashes
Switch my wig, make him feel like he cheating
Put him on his knees, give him some' to believe in
Never lost a fight, but I'm looking for a beating
In the food chain, I'm the one that eat ya
If he ate my ass, he's a bottom feeder
Big D stand for big demeanor
I could make ya bust before I ever meet ya
If it don't hang, then he can't bang
You can't hurt my feelings, but I like pain
If he fuck me and ask, "Whose is it?"
When I ride the dick, I'ma spell my name, ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you fucking with some wet ass pussy
Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet ass pussy
Give me everything you got for this wet ass pussy
Now from the top, make it drop, that's some wet ass pussy
Now get a bucket and a mop, that's some wet ass pussy
I'm talking WAP, WAP, WAP, that's some wet ass pussy

@@GeorgeCollier Great example
Or a story pizz., even!
@@GeorgeCollier Uvulas are underappreciated. It's nice to see them mentioned, even if not by name, in such an exemplary literary work of art as this.
The bassist is John Clayton! He also arranged Whitney Houston’s famous national anthem arrangement. Great guy.
That's John Clayton?!
@@itamarbar9580 That WAS John Clayton! They said it at the end. 🤣
He also got stiffed on the Royalty money from that National Anthem Arrangement.
@@itamarbar9580 Maybe ....
Killer bassist too.
The funny part is that in Spanish the pun about "plucking that bass" is even more explicit. It translates to "tocarte el bajo" which ALSO means "touching your nether parts"
As a pro bass player and educator, it means the same to me too!
What nether parts? Ancient debris?
No your tender loins
negative; say, how do you think blaze rods are earned
@@bedbug6177 found the guy that plays Minecraft
The drunken notation at 2:42 is just *perfect*
i laughed lmao
Made me think of Kid Koala's 'Drunk Trumpet.'
That was perfect lol
I'm so drunk I can barely see 🥴🤣🙃
jazz font irl
"I was seein double... bass that is" is one of the best lines I've heard
The completion of the pun was like the resolution of a leading tone LOL
I would literally listen to everyone’s story if it was in jazz format 😌
one thing about me, but jazz
And as they're telling their story you say "yeah I dig that"
'Mein Kampf' in a walkin' bass stylee...oh, yeah...

I got to play this with him while in college. He's such a cool and nice guy.
as you do lmao
huh i've never seen a bass go to college.
@@drakegoodrich6954 how do you think a bass gets his music degree?????
@@tuo.dobginski cuz everything is to bassic to him
HOLY FUCKING SHIIIITTTT NO EAY HLK FUCKUBG GOD THIS VYD THE GWDT JOKE EVER
I feel like jazz is unquestionably the music genre that pairs best with spoken word. You can tell the most aimless bullshit story ever over a walking bassline and a nice groove and it'll sound so smooth and interesting.
Yeah I was thinking to myself "Oh my gosh this is a country song in disguise" xD
@@WasatchWind 😆lol i never thought of it like that
Mitch Hedberg's "Strategic Grill Locations" CD it *right* up your alley =D
@@WasatchWind hey, country, jazz, and blues all come from the same roots.
Yeah that's right up there with when they want something incredibly stupid to sound intelligent like a Golden Talking Robot they give it an English Accent. I mean what if C3P0 had a Mexican Accent? Haan Soloooo! Orale! Wassappening?
This is not even the weirdest domestic/drunk/cheating story with an acoustic bass I've heard to date.
Please elaborate
we are eager to hear more
I can tell you’ve been around then
@@circlesquare4963 I'm glad you could tell that, since that was the point of me telling you.
John Clayton came to my college when I was in jazz band (last year), and we played some sets by him and with him, and let me tell you, that man is a joy to be around.
That is a previous experience and memory to treasure, for sure.
wow, which college?
@@vilebeggar622 it was at Butler
What a pleasure!
When I went with my high school jazz band to the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in 10th grade (~2011), some of us went to a clinic with Victor Wooten putting on a master class, and no fucking joke, out of nowhere, unplanned, John Clayton walked on stage with his bass and started jamming along. Was like seeing the face of God
I love how this dude narrates easily over a bass a talks with a contrabass
He has a normal baritone voice. Are all of your friends and family countertenors and sopranos or something?
@@pleasegoawaydude yes only soprillos and mezzo-altos
Double bass.
I feel way underdressed for this piece. Feel like I need a zoot suit, a glass of whiskey, and a cigar to properly enjoy it.
You don't need all of that stuff. Just grab your bass and go walking. Instructions were very clear!
@@gustafsone lol. True
Nah, you need two of every item. One for you, one for the bass
As a bassist, I just purchased a tuxedo for my bass.
No singles policy you better bring a bass.
i love the drunk sheet music :D
That’s basically just jazz font
Aiye Auhgwre3e
waiting for the bar where the bass asks if they got any grapes
No, thanks that's a disgrace.
“I was seeing double… bass that is” I love this man!
I couldn't keep from thinking: "he took a bass out in the rain? How could he?"
The bass wasn't gonna be left out of the drinking, of course.
You clearly ain't never seen a walking bass
I only meant to poke my head in to see what was playin, but shoot it was so smooth I just wound up stayin.
I don't know, I thought it was pretty weird, a story about a man and his bass havin some beers?
@@user-zr9hu3tf1y aint never seen a drinking bass
This is one of those performances that fills you with happiness every time you hear it
As a Dutch guy I had a good laugh at the subtitles, which not only rhyme and rhythmically work the same as the original in English (yes I’ve tried), but it’s arguably just as funny! Thanks for sharing man this was awesome. Funny to see Dutch jazz pianist and tv presenter Pim Jacobs at the end. Nice little addition!
The fact he doesn't miss a beat and keeps that smooth dulcet tone the whole way is equally impressive as it is terrifying
Smoothest walking bass I’ve ever heard
I love bass
Bassed
Sameness
“i was seeing double… bass that is” absolutely genius
As a bass layer myself, this brings me much joy
I, too, enjoy being intimate with my bass
@@the4thstring yes
I always go camping wearing a bass layer.
The wavy transcript at 2:42 😂
Awesome, i met John Clayton 20ish years ago in HS for jazz fest... he didn't think he had any recordings at all for this!
I forgot this song even existed. Thank you for bringing it back to me AND with a transcription too
"ahh that was a nice song."
"THAT WAS JOHN CLAYTON"
Damn, that guy has one of the best voices I've ever heard...
George Collier.... idk who or what you are....but your videos are simply incredible... It would have taken me YEARS to find some of the songs you have shown on your channel.... I appreciate all kinds of music, and I admire the skill of these artists unreal talent that wont be seen again.
THANK YOU SO MUCH NEVER DELETE THIS CHANNEL, I WILL WATCH UNTIL I DIE.
When the bass has more rizz than you
Love it! Would have loved seeing the bass transcribed in the choruses, too.
Agreed, I wish they'd done both parts - or at least indicated that they were switching to the brass.
@@zhazhagab0r That's what the clef changes are for.
@@Pensfan5919double bass can play in the treble clef. Proper notation would have been to indicate a different instrument.
This performance is sheer perfection.
That talk is deeper than most rappers
Check out Right Before the Miracle by BUSDRIVER and The Underground Railroad, it’s literally a live jazz band with a rapper B)
Crazy good! And btw the guy at the very end is the great dutch pianist Pim Jacobs, you can see him play with Wes Montgomery on one of the greatest jazz video on TH-cam
What's the name of the video?
@@tonsolerigarcia Type Wes Montgomery VPRO Studio, Hilversum, it should be the first result
I am blown away by anyone who can play and sing/talk at the same time. I've played bass for over a decade and I still find that incredibly difficult
Mad respect to this guy who can play a bass WHILE WALKING DOWN THE STREET. And talking while playing it. Absolute legend.
how he hit that note at 1:14 was crazy
he was right in and perfectly back down. he doesn’t fail to make me smile with every line. man is smooth
I went to Indiana University with John---a great musician and the nicest person ! What an honor---thanks for this video--JG
Happy to see some love for Maestro Clayton here on this channel... I'd be nowhere if it weren't for the Clayton brothers. RIP to his brother and my musical godfather Jeff, who gave me my first professional saxophone that started me on my journey here today... I hope John sees this video!
Am I the only one who was hearing a lot more notes than was being represented in the sheet music? Either way, love your work, Jacob. I mean, George!
He was switching between the horn section and bass line. Confused me as well
Yeah, you’re not alone
You'll notice he switches between the treble and bass clef
Of course. It's jazz.
"Can I pluck that bass?" "No, you just keep on walkin'." LOL the delivery on that was great
I kinda wish BA had transcribed just the bass line because I would have loved to read along during the chorus when the line got super-funky.
Impeccable transcription at 2:46
I heard this like decades ago, cant remember where. Started the video then almost clicked off of it, but clicked forward instead. Then I recognized it and listened to the whole thing again!
Such an inspiring man, lifts the spirits of everyone he comes in contact with
"If you're having some domestic troubles, go out and buy you a bass" this man has it right!
The lyrics are amazing
One of the best till now, I'd just like to see the bass line at the chorus, as it seems he improvises a bit.
Earth gets destroyed.
Guy: I don't need the Earth! I got ma BASS.
Takes me back to my jazz band days in college.
Take me back 😭
Please transcribe the whole bass part🙏, that would be perfection
Wow, perfect storm. Great bass player, great delivery, great band, great voice and handsome too! Loved it.
I can’t express the joy this makes me feel. And I really needed it today
This guy got the rizz
Unspoken bassist rizz
his voice is so calming
That melody is an absolute gold nugget.
Melody?
@@matthewvaughan8192 The main theme.
@@SaccoBelmonte Bassline?
@@matthewvaughan8192 The theme melody on the brass between the spoken parts.
I really like this. The horn chart is real pretty too.
2:42 Even the music gets drunk that’s amazing lol
That jazz font will forever be iconic
ive got an afro and i play bass as well
Never gonna look at walking bass the same again
Not enough talking from the audience for this to be a real bass solo
This is an underrated comment. I've had two bass solos and both of them got played/talked over
What an enchanting voice this man has, in addition to the great bass chops. I feel like I have been hearing this voice somewhere for years, but I don't know where.
Happiest bass player out there
Dang I wish you would have kept the bass line through the horn interlude… great work as always tho!
Remarkable! How could I ever miss such entertainment :) Best walking base ever :) Thank You for the upload!
the best part is whenever he says "lets go walking"
How have I never heard of this? Genius.
Wow what a comedic session! Love it!
That double bass joke was incredible
The levels of chill seen here should be mandatory... Man... This is just a gold mine.
Which reminds me, I need to binge watch Frasier sometime.
god i could listen to hours of that, its beautiful
What an amazing piece
This is awesome. I used to play this on my Jazz radio show a lot back in the early 80s..still have the vinyl!
Came for the bass, stayed for the story.
I want this man to narrate my life
He looks like the kind of guy that would close a pool
Due to aids?
Good one.
omg thank you so much I've been looking for a transcription for forever
With that voice, he could be reading a phone book and I'd be here for it.
I'd binge a podcast narrated by this guy
I clicked this expecting his bass to have wheels. Still, was not disappointed
running bass next
I will never ever be as cool as this guy and it legitmately bums me out.
1:18 ahh no keep on walkin 💯
Those strings are so loose the bass practically slaps itself.
That is surely the coolest human being ever to grace the earth?
Reminds me of a time i was booked to tour Europe with a legendary Blues artist. It was a pick up band and the bass player was maybe the fifth choice as everyone else was busy...He was a rock bassist not versed in the language of blues and jazz. So during the first gig when said blues artist required a walking bass, he just shouted "Walk!" at the bassist across the stage. Bass player looks confused..."I SAID WALK MOTHER****ER!"...So he starts striding purposefully backwards and forwards across the stage...
Perfectly transcribed! Thanks!
I dig the upright bass. I always listen carefully to it when I hear jazz. I play viola.
I feel baited and bamboozled.
Thats sooooo cool hahaha, thank you for this gem! nice to see the young Clayton also
What a nice voice he has
