This month’s transcription is “Overjoyed” by Victor Wooten. This superb arrangement of Stevie Wonder’s classic song was originally found on Victor’s debut album A Show of Hands, although this video from 1987 shows that Victor had been playing it for nearly ten years prior to the release of that album:
I believe that this arrangement of the song was also inspired by Stanley Clarke’s cover version, which appeared on his 1986 album Hideaway. Although Stanley’s version was a smooth jazz reading of the tune, it certainly seems to have influenced Victor’s very challenging two-handed tapping arrangement.
