Cantdosleepy Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Been listening to their first album for about a month now. The bass lines are all nice and simple but interesting with a good groove and a nice tone that sits well in the mix and is sweet with a touch of muscle. The drummer plays nice tight lines as well, an they go really well together. Anyone else like CYHSY? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass_In_Yer_Face Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Don't get me wrong I detest every thing about his music but when James Blunt played 1973 on Jools Holland recently, I liked the bass line on that live. Oh God I'm getting old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderthumbs Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Must admit to really appreciating the basslines in songs by The Feeling. I read a short interview somewhere recently (may have been in the free mags at Bass Day) with the bass player. Nice to hear basslines that are actually very melodic and harmonic, rather than just 4/4 root notes as a lot seem to do. It's almost a tad Jamerson-esque.

Mr Fudge Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I had the pleasure of supporting Phill Jupitus and the blockheads a few weeks ago. Their set and Mr Norm on bass inspired me to get a best of Ian Dury and the Blockheads so therein lies your answer. Wonderful stuff, great music and even better lyrics.
