Victor bringin' the funk with drummer J.D. Blair, from an old BET show.
The intro is by the late soul and gospel singer Lou Rawls.

Here he is with the band that blew everyone's minds back in the 90s, with his brother Roy ("Futureman") on the drum synth. Is it jazz? Funk? Bluegrass?
Who the cares, these mofos can PLAY!!!

One of the most amazing things I've ever seen was Bela and Victor trade instruments in the middle of a set. Turns out Bela can shred on bass. And Victor can shred on banjo. I hate them both!
