leroybasslines Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Is the guy on bass playing the fiesta red P the Metropole regular player? He's doing the business! Edited August 22, 2016 by leroybasslines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldbass Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Ha, on 'Stuff Like That' even the string section were groovin....very cool. I thought the whole thing was brill..though Im not sure Richard Bonas voice was really up to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowdown Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Stunning arrangements, top, top playing from very experienced musicians, great vocals. Shame Richard Bona was struggling vocal wise, he is normally on it. You see, get in top arrangers, experienced players and vocalists and things just work.

lowdown Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) Just watched this again on iPlayer. That Orchestra really is fantastic with a terrific Rhythm section. If you have not seen the show, it really is worth a watch. Edited August 23, 2016 by lowdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 8 minutes in (including the introduction) and already it is blooming amazing!! Tight, nicely mixed, yes, rhythm section working brilliantly with the orchestra! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK Jale Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) Heckuva show. I think the bassist is this guy: [url="https://www.mo.nl/orkest/aram-kersbergen"]https://www.mo.nl/or...aram-kersbergen[/url] . Seems like a '63 P and I'd love to know his amp but it sounds pretty B15.

bassace Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 The Jamie Cullum Prom the following day was good too. That guy certainly knows how to bridge the jazz , pop and rock genres. And did you see our own TheG on double bass with the Remi Harris Trio. Great playing, Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin_lindsay Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I've just watched the Quincy Jones set - wow!!!! Fantastic stuff (apart from the reedy voiced white bloke). Cory Henry was amazing!!! The set was so good that I'm actually 20 mins into watching it all over again! $ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
