A very beautiful sound made by the top player and amazing historical instrument. Warm, tight, robust, bright...and sophisticated wooden sound. John, thank you from Japan

When I was a young lad my Mom used to always say about a great musician, "Wow, they really can make that instrument talk."
That always stuck with me. To make your music speak to an audience. After all, it is a language.
John is the epitome of an exceptional musician. He most certainly spiritually communicates to us with his music and his bass playing. Especially, as displayed here. What an incredible voice. Beautiful note choices and feel. He truly can make his instrument talk. Great music.

Oh John! That’s just like chocolate mate… love the glissando doubles and the excellently weighted pauses…

I am left speechless. That bass literally sings the blues. The tone, the dynamics. Who needs a guitar 😝

So much soul and feeling and mastery of style! My mind went to the bluesy original music from New Orleans. Thank you my friend for this inspirational and great tune! Lovely!

You can hear every decade of the blues in that. Love it!

Beautiful! What a sound, what a musician, what a composer...

[daseinoseven]

Man, the feels on this one. Your work has inspired me for decades, John. Thank you. ❤

I'm taking a picture of this video and will use it to turn my shed space into something the looks exactly like this space. The wood panel walls are reflecting and kicking the bottom of the bass back up to his ears. The effect is intimate.... like wearing headphones. Thanks Uncle John.

This playing, leaning into the tone like your head is inside the sound box and looking into all the vibrations in each nook and cranny, is why I love the DB. What a player.

[charlesmcgehee]

Does John put his soul into this piece or what? For a left handed man, he surely has strong and coordinated right fingers. Beautiful work John Patitucci. I can't even recall what I was thinking about before I heard this. Had to play it twice. Thank you for sharing your work so freely.
