Yes, both work are amazing!!

Bela is a god , a very great musician, and its music alone and with the flecktones  is one of the best in jazz and blue grass genre

I love Bela Fleck/Flecktones.
Their eclectic mix of genres and their superb musicianship had me hooked since the first time I heard Flight of The Cosmic Hippo.

I got to catch Bela play with Jean Luc Ponty this summer at the Toronto Jazz Festival. Stanley Clarke was suppose to play with them, but his flight got cancelled and wasn't able to make it.

I can't really listen to the flecktones regularly, but they are one of the best live bands I have ever seen.  Victor Wooten is brilliant.

Hi all,

Thanks for the replies

I recently bought Victor's new album "Soul Circus" and the musicianship is exemplary as always but I'm not all that happy with the plastic, disposable, overproduced 'R 'n' B lite' sound that he's got going on there.  I don't like it at all
