EssentialTension Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I like them a lot. Wasn't Michigan Avenue where Chess records was based? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Misses the mark. Would do ok-ish in a pub, maybe but wouldn't be one of the better ones in the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I gave it a listen; I shan't do it again. Too many weaknesses, and I prefer singing to shouting. Sounds very thin, and if you're going for an 'under 3 minute' song, there's not much call for a bass solo. Sorry, I'd give it a miss. Nice try, and good luck to the fellows, of course.

EssentialTension Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I'm surprised anyone would think that instrumental section to be a bass solo. Anyway, I still liked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xilddx Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Yep. No groove. Pub band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Not great... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowieBass Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Not keen; the weakest link for me is the vocals. I'm sure Michigan Avenue do just fine entertaining the punters in a pub but I wouldn't make a special trip to see them. I notice they're from your area bubinga5, are you connected with them?

steve-bbb Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 sorry no groove - was all recorded one track/instrument at a time? not a bad song - has potential but needs more groove between drums and bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subbeh Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I'd say the drummer and particularly the vocalist are bigger issues than the bass player. There isn't a player around that will make the singer's shouting sound good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 That solo makes the band sound dated. Blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonky2 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 A more dominant bass player could do something with it I suppose but I Agree with the comments on the vox and lyrics... If you have the time give it a go and see if you can bring it to life a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krysh Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 well. terrible guitar sound. thinkabout shouter. drums and bass have to melt together somewhen... better than just drinking in a pub, ey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Bassy Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I quite like it. Wouldn't travel to see them, but if they were playing in a pub I'd quite enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
