  1. Playable? I love a green bass - great ornament.
  2. Mark from Talkingbass: Get ready for a good one!! Pino Palladino is one of the greatest bass players of all time and today we're looking at one of his greatest bass lines. His bass playing on Every Time You Go Away is melodic, memorable and technically brilliant while keeping that groove at its core. We'll breakdown the bass line, look at how Pino approached creating those intricate fills and how all of this works to relative to the harmony so you can start to create bass lines and fills just like the master! The video will be going live as a Premiere at the following times: UK: 8 pm East Coast USA: 3pm West Coast USA: 12pm I'll be watching along with you and answering questions in the live chat so come along for a TalkingBass watch party! Check Out The Video Here!
  3. There will be differing opinions on what is a great track and why it's great. Nothing to do with genre either - great songs come from every genre, even if I don't like some of them. There are artists who some think are great while others can't understand why that artist stands above others. Let's not have the "eye of the beholder" discussion. Great tracks and why they are "great" please. I say a little prayer - Aretha Franklin: Well written song delivered faultlessly by somebody with a powerful and beautiful voice. Pitch perfect, even the high notes. Covered many times I would hazard but never bettered. An example for others to aim for. I will always love you - Whitney Houston Amazing song, written by Dolly Parton who said that she was blown away when she heard Whitney's version - "Yes it's my song but it's her record" - Dolly, huge star in her own right, said that she'd have loved to have been able to deliver the song in the same way. Another beautifully delivered song, again pitch perfect which Whitney was able to do live (YouTube is your friend). Dolly says it fits so many applications - not just for lovers - parent/ child, friends, etc.

  5. Can't be as bad as guitarists talking out of their derriere disease...
  6. I used to love my Dance stuff but it isn't the same if you aren't jumping around with lights in your eyes...After all it isn't as if anybody can name any of the tunes.
  7. He might be kidding himself but he's not kidding the rest of us..😉😉

  10. How much would you want for a cheap bass with a £300 bridge?
  11. Now that was a real bargain...
  12. Bargain...I paid £150 which I thought was OK when I played it.
  13. For those who haven't seen my "Wanted" ad, @Edmund_Gomes is looking for a specific bass and preamp. A friend of his is looking out for a TRB or similar Preamps for his JP-1.
  14. The mother of all bargains..
