way cool well pleased you like your purchase Steinberger is a very versatile Bass (disclaimer: never tried a Synapse) great all purpose gigging instrument

bought a Peavey DataBass from Charlie no less maybe 1990(?) I can't remember I think I was impressed with the loudness

bar 12 odd note the Rhodes plays Eb..the chords is Em7(b5) to A7 (#5,#9) outro chords bar 91 -92 F#dim Fm7 Em6 Ebm6 then D7(#9) Db7(#9,#11) Cmaj9 (#11) this was from Paul Scott's transcription in famous British periodical "Bassist" I think I said it was Soul Man sorry Mr Scott

Saturday Night Fever might be him no the other one Thank God It's Friday Donna Summer "Last Dance" if you have played a wedding gig you have probably played this song

part of the pubs covers deal in NZ is to "play to the buses" which means you map your night out on what time the bus tour's are hitting your particular pub. one night we got a mean beans all in brawl with two competing Hens Night Buses vicious some of it it was before 10 as well so who knows how many more venue's has the pleasure of these two sets of drunk tramps turning up on their door. If it was blokes the Cops would have halted it with batons and dogs at the first round.

Jesse "The Body" Ventura Picture Disc rarer than RHS

I liked that ballad, crikey what was it called. Did a Jeans ad launch this band? I seem to remember ye olde music press battering too. the singer had nice hair Kindness/Weakness got it

yes some cool lines and feels for sure side 1 of Pills and Thrills is some good stuff.

I have used the Slider Strap "Harness" very good at distributing the weight of the instrument takes time to get used to problematic in tenor range generally not adjustable "midflight" potential to look like more of a cock but clearly it is less back pain after gigging with this compared to ordinary "one shoulder" strap.

Gwazd's excellent book on the making of Kind of Blue has the controversy over the use of overdubs on the recording. or optional takes even. Times change for sure Bilbo

It's quite an Acknowledgment.

I got a '76 Precision 7 years back for $1100 which is 350 - 375 pounds it's a beauty

WOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH Miami! Old soul man from UK Bass player Mag did a transcription of this I have a dig around and see what his chords are homeslice.

Sadowsky Pre-Amp for Fender Jazz is mean beans fretted and fretless funk, soul, blues and jazz enthusiastically embraced here.

Smiths and Talk Talk both blummin brilliant can I mention the Fall...again.

tutor is good no need to be bass specific either in fact if it's theory you want a good argument can be made to get your lessons from a Pianist if music is chord based.... 2 more top books are Serious Electric Bass by Joe di Bartolo and The Jazz Theory Book by Marc Levine

i'm saying Tower of Strength is produced by JPJones Sisters of Mercy were great, really liked some of their stuff.

is it Raoul or the King of Spain in your avatar You-Ma? Shout is poptastic stuff Status and Pick goodness IIRC that Black single was lovely CK top vocals for sure Mark E. Smith was never a fan of Tears for Fears though

MM20 I think the Sadowky Pre-Amp is the bees knees for a Fender Jazz Bass built for it if you know what I mean.

Paul Chambers on Blues by Five here is your blues Willie Weeks on Donny Hathaway "everything is everything" it feels right, nice use of the flat5 I like "Eric" by Marcus Miller too, the outro is fun Rich. how about "Smooth Operator" i've forgotten his name sorry D minor it was... needed the Steinberger to get the reach on it. righto,

I'm a big fan of the Abersold playalongs for getting it together it's high rotate for my practice regime for sure.

Marcus Miller "true geminis" from Tales album it's like a Jazz standerd I of course can't remember now I type also MM with Gadd, Clapton "Legends" at Montreaux very nice this

Rhonda may have let herself go a bit though

really? the only interview I read of him he was reticent to say the least... thanks for the link,

Ha! nice choice of tune great chords, I love the descent 29-33 there is a Latiny-Bossa type playalong in John Goldsby's Very Good Jazz Book the intro is the live pick up for Charlie Parker "Bird of Feather" too.
