The keyboardplayer is Frederico Pena. He's a great guy and a phenomenal keyboard player, songwriter and soloist. He's played with Meshell Ndegeocello and Maxwell to name a few.

Amazing! 3 absolute masters of the bass guitar on stage together! Wish I could have seen this live!

lead bass, rhythm bass, bass bass - Gawd, who knew? splendid & ty ty ty!

Love that keyboard player.... every time I jam along with this I look up and see him grinning and I cant help but grin back...plus the keys sound killer in this

+Jonathan Lamb From experience, what happened was the right hand camera went down, probably a loose cable. The cam operators can't hear any directions, so they just keep shooting their mark. The guy on the right hand camera probably didn't know his feed was down. Meanwhile the director is pulling his hair out, and resorting to boring shots of the keyboard player until he can get someone down there to fix the lost feed.

I saw Vic Wooten at the NAMM show some years ago. What a super fun guy to not only talk to but to watch play. He was phenomenal. He truly loved his craft!

Yessssss !!! Fantastic slap & keyboard !!! Drums - just awesome. Respect.

The rhythm master, the solo machine and the composer.

I can't even believe how amazing this is.

Dude...there is truly no way for you to have TOO MUCH bass. Love these guys.

This video is pretty old, which makes me wonder why there aren't any comments mentioning how into it the keyboard player was. That dude poured his heart and soul into this.

Love these guys- Stanley still has the best tone!!

Yeah, these guys are on my all-time list too. I'm a life long career bassist so it's always a kick to meet these guys at various shows. I remember once being asked by Bill Dickens if I played too. After seeing him play I could only respond with, " not really". Sometimes it's a fine line between inspiration and intimidation.

I just clicked on this guy, I never heard of him but he was an outstanding bassist. Thought I come back to you to let you know I just checked him out. Great musician.

Just amazing!

Excellent!

Ну красавцы!! Чё ещё сказать.... Лучшие из лучших!!

That was nice... 3 Super talented guys!!

Wow! 3 Legend Bassists with the Legend Drummer Chris Coleman!

Un Gran Homenaje para michael jackson, me parece un muy buen video con los 3 grandes bajistas del mundo!!!

Im glad we are finaly realizing that BASS!!! is the most versatile instrument there is.

Eita som bão de ouvir, show de mais.

so amazing !!

Marvelous crisp & clean solo by master bass player Stanley Clarke at 1:55 to 2:55.🎵🎶🎶🎸

Stanley, Marcus and Victor,paying tribute to MJ! :"BEAT IT"

The most ambitious crossover of all time

I consider you guys are three of the best bass guitar players in the world 👍👍👍

He's in love with the keyboard player.

You do realize that there are multiple cameras, not just one guy running around looking like a fool. Plus, shots are determined by the director, the camera crew are given an area or person to focus on by the director while there is a tech who switches between camera feeds as told by the director. Final product, blame the director.

I think Victor was 8 when he started playing professionally. I've always been impressed with his playing, but that's all a matter of taste. I also really like Stu Hamm, a different style, but also a great player.

Fabulous....thanks for sharing!!

Bro I love how they all still kept their style

02:22 Oh yeah Victor is there too

Well.... three fantastic Bass players on one stage. Perhaps not something thats always necessary. I believe one good able bodied Bass player is all it takes to drive any song in any genre in any band.I speak as a fellow bass player. However I know one thing, small minded perhaps even envious musicians have for decades made fun and jokes about bass players saying its an easy instrument to play. This has been taken so much to heart I believe that scores of players have invested in basses with upwards of five, six even eight strings or more.WHY? The fact remains bass guitarists play a vital role in most genres of modern popular music and the worlds most memorable songs were recorded on four string basses.ask stanley clarke. BLESSINGS....

Ive frustratedly tried to explain this for years to those for whom the penny has not yet dropped(or should I say for whom the real essence of true appreciation in music has not yet become a reality). I can only suggest that the purchase of decent quality audio equipment might help biased individuals to hear more clearly what the true dynamics are within the music they listen to and that includes the indonesian/ malaysian gamelon....ha ha..BLESSINGS....

For the most part I agree with you all on the "number of strings issue" when it comes to bass, but as a predominantly 5 string player, I have to say I find the extra low's from a 5 can help fill out music at times. I did play 6 but mainly to make some things easier, now I'd rather improve my playing by having to work harder on less strings ;) and who knows, one day I may lose the 5 string and go back to 4 all the time, not just when I play my fretless

It doesn't really matter (unless it creates problems), I could explain why people do it and it makes a lot of sense which is why people but them, however just know it doesn't matter and the best bassists can get it done with just four, sometimes THREE. It doesn't matter. If it accomplishes what you want, good. That's all that needs to be said.

One of my favorites

Extreme love for this one! MJ

All three of them are amazing musicians by themselves. But having 3 bassists playing at the same time is ridiculous.

It'd rule if they did a version of Spinal Tap's Big Bottom.
