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.
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
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!
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!
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!
Mr. Clayton visited my school’s jazz ensemble last year and I was the bassist for it was super awesome seeing him because I specifically told him about this video and how It was really cool that he was one of my inspirations to continue bass as a secondary instrument and he’s such a cool dude 😎
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.
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 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.
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...
I was so confused at why the notation was wrong, I've never seen you make an error, then I realized you were switching between the horns and bass lol. My brain felt like it was derailing for a moment.
Just met John Clayton today. He taught at my jazz rehearsal and is shch a great guy. Alway smiling and you can tell he is passionate about what he does.

You clearly ain't never seen a walking bass
At least it wasn't a cake.
From this story, we know this bass is built different.
The fact he doesn't miss a beat and keeps that smooth dulcet tone the whole way is equally impressive as it is terrifying
This is one of those performances that fills you with happiness every time you hear it

You'll notice he switches between the treble and bass clef
Of course. It's jazz.

Impeccable transcription at 2:46
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.
"ahh that was a nice song."
"THAT WAS JOHN CLAYTON"
"If you're having some domestic troubles, go out and buy you a bass" this man has it right!
This is the earliest use of "shook" I've ever heard, that's so interesting!
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.
The lyrics are amazing
I can’t express the joy this makes me feel. And I really needed it today
