He got some serious upright prog chops that Ray Brown!
Who would have known.
Love his style too!
Doing the robot never gets old, and he does it like no other I ever seen before, keeping his cool the entire duration of the track making it look all easy-peasy as if he could do it just as amazingly well upside down in a headstand.
Respect to Ray Brown!
That man knows where it's at.

I've seen a couple of these and thought, "Okay, now, I know what to expect," but this one surprised me with the way it interspersed live footage (and audio!) from different performances of Ray Brown, who really did have some chops!
I don't know how hard it is to put these together, but whoever is doing it is doing meticulous work and, I suspect, really digs Ray -- even though he's lampooning him a bit, here, I see it as a kind of tribute, too (at least that's the way it comes across to me).

Agreed, and having the double bass sound makes the bass even more distinct. It's a cool .... whatever it is. Check the guy's other videos, he's done a lot of interesting takes. I can't imagine how much time it must take to put this together.
