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!
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. 🔥🎶
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
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!
@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.

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 RU-vid 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.
