This man is a treasure for the Christian Musicians in the world. He is respected in both Christian and Commercial music circles.... I had chance to attend one of this bass clinic back in the mid 90's at Anaheim Vineyard Church. He hardly spoke about bass technic, but more about your passion for music and give Glory to God.

Its amazing that with all those percussive attacks, slaps and flamencoes at lightning speed how each note rings out so clear like a bell, the marks of a true legend.

Abraham Laboriel est le meilleur bassiste de tous les temps.

When Abe starts slappin' you'd better clear the area because he can't stand still. Love this guy. What a gift to the world of music!

This is it. search no further, ( with all due respect to the other greats: Graham, Clarke, etc ) worlds best bassist right there.

@Galériant but where do you think sheehan, wooten and so many others got it from? they all listened to this man right here! there's a reason why he also was the most sought after studio musician plus clinician.

andrew bintang jaco and jamerson had a way bigger influence than laboriel did, especially on guys who played jazz, funk and even rock.

IGNANT TV despite the fact that jaco has recorded some of the hardest bass lines ever and jamerson has pioneered the melodic style of playing a bass.

"E só posso dizer uma coisa..há no mundo inteiro muitos baixistas bons e consideráveis..........e o Abraham Laboriel é considerado o Pai dos baixistas........é um dos melhores do mundo..........se não for o melhor.............

Praise God! We are blessed tp see this man of God ministering by way of his music :)

THIS IS OUR FIRST CHOICE BASSPLAYER FOR EARTH AND HEAVEN....THIS MAN IS BLESSED WITH GOD`S TALENT AND HE KNOWS JESUS DEARS*

Thank GOD someone caught this on camera...this is one of the best solo electric bass performances in the history of the instrument. Mind blowing on every level. God Bless Mr. Laboriel, and may he continue to delight everyone around him for many, many more years to come.

It’s worship to Him as He plays you could see the joy as he plays He always is an inspiration to ALL Bass players out there ; the groove and rhythm not just the technicality of his playing Absolutely wonderful every time I see a vid of him playing Hallelujah !!

I love it when people actually look happy to play.

Big mexican talent, usted es grande señor Laboriel

for those who don't know him: Abraham Laboriel, Sr. (born July 17, 1947) is a Mexican bassist of Garifuna descent who has played on over 4,000 recordings and soundtracks. Guitar Player Magazine described him as "the most widely used session bassist of our time". Laboriel is the father of drummer Abe Laboriel Jr. and of producer, songwriter, and film composer Mateo Laboriel. and more from wiki. 4000 recordings? WOW!

Mr Laboriel is such an inspiration to watch and listen too. His music is spiritual; not just technique, skill, or any of those other components musicians seek to enhance their playing. Absolutely genius in every aspect of his musicianship! What a guy!

This guy is a big inspiration for me him Stanley Clark, Victor Wooten, Louis Johnson, Marcus Miller , Les Claypool.

Que por sinal é um grande fã de Laboriel.

Met Abe when I was hangin' out with Victor Bailey right after Jaco died, thought he was amazing then, and just as amazing now! Just makes you love the bass even more!

The Godfather of the Bass Guitar!!!! OMG!!!!

There's only one Abe Laboriel. God bless him.

Que honor que es mexicano . Aunque sus raices estan en los morenales de Tela honduras,en el departamento de Atlantida

He is a Legend ... very good bass player ... and he is also a christian .. God Fearing 5 thumbs up to you sir .. .if i have 5 thumbs .. :)

C'est la première fois que je vois quelqu'un faire chanter des gens en jouant de la basse!

One of the best in the world hands down

People need to see this; that you can serve the Lord Jesus Christ and still have fun doing it!!!!!!!!

The Master of the Masters...

love how he dances to the groove while playing!

WHO CAN TOUCH THAT !!!!!!!!

feeling!

I love this man, I am an avid bass player and a very big Jaco fan, and I have been playing bass for 30 years and this performance brought me to tears. The style and everything is so amazing. Just wow.

Pra dar um show Laboriel não precisa de mais ninguém! Simplesmente show

Oh my Gosh!!!!!.. Laboriel killing the Wyn Bass... He is ALL Time Best and Favorite... well rounded too.... All basists bow..lol...

Laboriel is laboriel . nothing to say , and what a beautiful basses .. love Wyn basses

Viva México Abraham Laboriel!!! One of the biggest!. Excellent.

Wow! I have seen all there is to see from a master bassist. Lesson learnt.

EVERYTIME I HEAR THIS SAINT PLAY, IT JUST AMAZES ME - THE JOY JUST FLOWS!!!

I can safely say this is the BEST bass solo performance I've ever seen.

The greatest living electric bass player....I WORSHIP this man, in every respect...

man! I dont care how many fast and incredible lines some others bassist do but Mr Laboriel put his heart and every note and hit that he makes! . . and if he would be making this solo at some full stadium the people would went crazy ! . . thats his greatness wherever he plays .. he put his heart out ! .. a great man of God.. .-

Outstanding! I remember him on Al Jarreau's "All Fly Home" recording from 1978.

This makes you never want to pick up a bass again...WOW!!!

WOOOOOOW Forever young, Forever Beautiful !!!!

I had the chance to meet this awesome musician in Switzerland when I was 16 years old. I was invited to a concert where he was playing with Vinnie Colaiuta. OMG a precious moment to remember!

I have been tracking Abraham Loboriel since the early 80's as a member of the Koinonia band. Honestly, he's the greatest bassist of all times. That's the truth. I have seen them all and heard the all...he's simply the grandmaster. Period. Take it or leave it. That's the fact. Also he loves God with all his heart and it shows in his music.

"É um dos melhores baixistas do mundo................todo o meu respeito a ele........edson

Doesnt matter if the rest are technical and fast, but a "true" musician is one that can add life and soul to a song and the rest of the band, mr. ABE, you are of those people.

From what planet they flew this dude in from? AWESOME!!!!

He is the great master.....few in his rank

wow that's what we call expression. . Rank 1 in the world. . The Big Boss in Bass Guitar.

I don't know I never heard of this, but the is one of the most down to earth and gifted musicians I've ever seen in my life. Do I even have to mention his talent as a bass player.

I love you sir, I have been following your music, since i was a kid.. God bless you for good music you play...

Wow! A real treat to linsten and watch the legendry Laboriel himself. Thankyou for sharing.

hands down! Long live master Abe! God Bless you!

Amazing! God Bless Abe!

Mais é mais uma fantástica apresença dos músicos em suas melodias que sempre haverá inovações apreciando.

no lie,!!! this made me tear... God bless you Abe

He is an angel from heaven!!

In my opinion you are watching The Best Bass Player on the whole planet who else combines melodies riffs slap thump and chord pregressions. His understanding of the bass guitar is un matched. Respect.

the guy from Wyn basses was enjoying a proud moment..one of his creations in the hands of a master.

Wow, just broke down crying and thanking GOD for allowing me to listen and hear such an angelic celestial session!...through this experience alone I'm convinced that miracles and all good/ beautiful things are possible!

Wow, Many Technique, Magic. I LIKE IT

There will be one bass in heaven and I presume it will be played by the mighty A.L.

sencillamente WOW!!!!!!!!!!....que talento el de este hombre. Dios lo bendiga grandemente

I love this man! Abraham Laboriel is truly an awesome man of God, God bless you sir, with a long healthy, joyful life. Continually filled with the presence of God with his favor and all that too. You rock sir.

MASTER MY GOD!

God bless you ABRAHAM LABORIEL !!!!

I would like to see Abe and John Myung from dream theater do a bass song together(:

Omg!!! Did he flick that bass!? And is he open-handedly pump slap that bass!? Man, I'm gasping for air too!!!!

Freakin BRILLIANT!

simplemente un grande! y cito: "Thank GOD someone caught this on camera" gracias

Waooo!!!! That's Awesome!

the strings must b burnin hot after his play!.. amazing

A true talent! Not taking anything else away from anyone else. Simply inspiring...

This is the man whose skills made me fall in love with the bass.... The best gospel bass player in the world!!!!

Abe ! What a cool play ! The real contrabass guitarist.

That bass was just annointed...I would've bought it on the spot !!!!

the guy in the back is really excited about witnessing such an amazing solo, and look at how tenderly his (probably wife) touches his shoulder at 3:34 :D

yes, he's the founder and builder of wyn basses. to have a bass legend such as grandmaster abraham laboriel play on your hand build bass guitar like that must have been the best feeling in the world for him at that very moment.

what I also like about this is that no other instrument is needed!

So much energy and so much groove on it...damn...been years i played bass.still feels im 1000 years behind...

I'd like to see anyone on youtube cover anything that Abe has done. He's is in a class of his own. Such a complete bassplayer.

Jesus Christ ! Amazing ! I have no words to describe this performance. Abraham, you have touch my musician heart! Intelligence on a bass guitar, not just slapping, you use all styles at the perfection and I love that. You are my favourite bassman of all the time! Mike, basmancan

you've got be kidding????? Abe's played with everyone, Michael Jackson and he's been wanted by all of the top artists for their sessions. He knows exactly what he's playing.
