CD ReviewsWooten & Bailey take you to the "Extreme" D. L. Worthing | Arundel, Maine United States | 05/21/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "This release took me pleasantly by surprise. Having recently purchased "Jing Chi" the release off the Tone Center Records label featuring the trio of the great Robben Ford, Vinnie Colaiuta and Jimmy Haslip and liking it I decided to give this disc a spin. All I can say is this cd is outstanding. The bass playing of Victor Wooten, of Bela Fleck and the Flecktones and solo fame, and Steve Bailey is truly amazing. These guys are definitely masters of their instruments. Joined by Dennis Chambers on drums, these duo bass players put out an unbelievably melodic bass sound. They're accompanied by some of the most accomplished bass players in the music industry today. Oteil Burbridge, Anthony Jackson, John Patitucci,Billy Sheehan and even drummer Chambers, all make guest appearances on this new disc. Not a bad lineup. This disc is full of jazzy grooves, funked out tones and just great bass playing. All 13 tracks are just amazing. The duo also covers the late bass great Jaco Pastorius'"Portrait of Tracy". One of the standout tracks on this exceptional disc. So all you fans out there of Stuart Hamm, Geddy Lee, Pastorius, Stanley Clarke and other bass greats go out and get this disc and discover a couple more great bass players; Wooten and Bailey!" A must have for all Bass Players Robert7string | Calumet City, IL | 12/27/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "My wife gave me this as a Christmas present along with a new Discman. The interplay between Victor and Steve is nothing short of a marriage of style and sound from two masters. What really takes this over the edge is the inclusion of other great bassist such as Oteil Burbridge, Billy Sheehan, Anthony Jackson and Prof. John Patitucci. This album is not just another slap fest or "lets see who can rip the fastest lines" but is quite melodic even with some of the complex timing. Dennis Chambers as usual rules on drums but isn't overpowering. I highly recommend this to all musicians who have the privilege of carrying the bottom and causing the groove to flow. It amazes me to think just what Victor will sound like ten years from now as he continues to progress and experiment. The Bass will never be the same thanks to music like this."
