Showcasing the tremendous, often unrealized potential of the bass guitar, Steve Bailey and Victor Wooten have put together this version of their groundbreaking
Bass Extremes album/book project, now available on DVD for the first time ever.
Steve and Victor demonstrate how the bass guitar can supply bass lines, piano and guitar-like comping figures, lead solos, and percussion parts in styles ranging from bebop to new age and heavy metal.
Each piece highlights different aspects of their amazing techniques - like Steve's three-finger technique or his awe-inspiring command of harmonics and chord voicings, or Victor's incredible funk grooves or his thumb and two-handed tapping techniques.
Between each performance segment, Steve and Victor walk you note-for-note through the licks and techniques that make up each song, explaining and demonstrating everything at slow speeds.
