    Well done you. I'll certainly get myself a copy of this.

    [quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1469963484' post='3102282'] Going to have a nap on couch now but put me down for the Swarfega thing. [/quote] No offence intended, but I'm not sure if discreet (or any one else here) wants to watch you wrestle in Swarfega.

    [quote name='KingBollock' timestamp='1469894888' post='3101866'] Yes! In the past, when I have searched, that is the only thing that ever came up, but I only had that one scene to go on and could never find any images or clips of it, and I don't remember any of the stuff from Sybil that I could find. However, I have just found the exact scene on YouTube. So, thank you, I can now tick that one off! [/quote] Glad I could help, but more than anything I'm just delighted to see this thread back in action.

    Yummedy-yum-yum.

    [quote name='KingBollock' timestamp='1469845736' post='3101504'] The other was very disturbing. It's supposed to be a true story. There was a girl whose mum would keep chained to a piano for hours and hours, and when she inevitably wet herself, the mum would take a hot poker to her insides. It was nasty. I don't want to see it again, but I would be intrigued to know more. [/quote] The film is called `Sybil` or `Cybil`? Sally Field plays the leading role. In it, her "safe-place" where she can open up to her therapist about her terrifying childhood is a large, overstuffed armchair she refers to as "the big chair". I remember reading somewhere that the Tears for Fears' album and track, "Songs from the Big Chair", are a side reference to this.

    That's the spirit!

    Fair enough, but it's a very lovely looking bass and you're a very naughty man for tempting me with it. And, just to make matters worse.... http://youtu.be/r6VIPCoJArg http://youtu.be/Vk96VlaynLA

    Oooooohhhhhh, I managed to resist this the last time it was out there, and I blinking love it! If I could test it, I'd be over, but I live in Germany GLWTS.

    [quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1466362695' post='3075304'] There seemed to be quite a lot of interest in it within the 45 mins I was in the shop, at least one person called up to buy it when I was in the process of paying for it! [/quote] Just out of curiosity, why are you moving it on again? It does look like a lovely instrument.

    I seem to remember reading the term 'gank bass' on the liner notes of their album all those years ago. A good word to describe that sound, I think.

    Is gruting even legal?
  12. SICbass
    Nice.
  13. SICbass
    Definitely one for that Flintstones tribute act I've been meaning to form.

    I find that simpler driving grooves with space between the notes work better. Outdoors it's not always easy to control the sound and what the audience are hearing (e.g. if the sound us echoey or mushy), so the more complicated the rhythms are, the less likely they are to 'reach' the audience.

    If you allow 4 notes. The same 4 (depending on how divide the measure) can be The Addams Family Theme or Great Balls of Fire.

    OK. the pick is obvious, but oh so funky... http://youtu.be/Ll3uipTO-4A

    [quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1465851916' post='3071644'] Sanborn and Hiram Bullock...Just great. [/quote] Omar Hakim lending a hand too, there.
  21. SICbass
    Perfect for those rained-out summer open-air gigs.

    [quote name='blue' timestamp='1465839796' post='3071485'] A true pioneer, and funny as he'll. Blue [/quote] Absolutely on both counts. I didn't know just how funny he was till I saw a clip from the talk-radio show he used to do. it was from the excellent documentary "Only the Strong Survive", which unfortunately went a little under the radar as it was released in the same year as that other great soul documentary, "Standing in the Shadows of Motown".

    [quote name='Cato' timestamp='1465849867' post='3071623'] I hadn't heard of him until about a year ago. Since then mainly through his work with Kendrick Lamar, Flying Lotus & Kamasi Washington he's become one of my most listened to bass players. I've still not made up my mind on his solo stuff, it's definitely very interesting, but I'm not sure how much I actually like it, though Apocalypse is definitely a more accessible album to me than Golden Age of the Apocalypse.(His first couple of albums have confusingly similar names). [/quote] I will definitely check out those other artists. Thanks for the tip.

    This was new to me. A really odd and interesting combination. [media]http://youtu.be/lVqETCMg3SA[/media] http://youtu.be/Buxtt8unaCo

    So, this is what I originally attempted (failing miserably) to post at the top of this thread. [media]http://youtu.be/KCFyKRtlLOI[/media]
