[quote name='BottomE' timestamp='1327591584' post='1513885'] Me, i love a nice chop from a bassist (read any muso) if it is [b]context[/b]. [/quote] I will add my name to BottemE's Downing St petition. [b]Context[/b] Hit me with your Rhythm stick. If you want to keep that simple, by all means do. But you will sound a twonk.

There's been a few posts of late with this guy, he sure is tight and groovy. The triplets are as tight as the original Bass Synth line. Garry

Sounds like a Latency issue, or if you have input echo in FL, is it engaged. What Audio/sound card are you using ? What drivers with the card Asio/Wdm/Mme ? A bit more info on PC specs and Audio card, and someone might be able to help. Garry

For me open strings are good for raking, ghosting and dead muted notes, Also high double stops, with say an open E or A at the bottom. Garry

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1327401621' post='1510484'] [font=Arial]I'd be interested to know how long the guy who treated David Bowie like the milkman lasted on the tour. [/font] [/quote] This..... Garry

Sounds good. There is a lot of tracks up there - good luck with that. Garry

A new Years Eve in Dubai - 1 hour spot. Garry

[quote name='phobucket' timestamp='1327320049' post='1509149'] Tentatively our plans are to start in south (Brighton) [/quote] I would be very tentative in Brighton. It's twinned with San Francisco. Garry

[quote name='Linus27' timestamp='1327146228' post='1506908'] To me, this is what bass playing is all about. groove, melody, chord progression and expression. None of this 1000 x slap notes that just sound like a bag of bolts being shaken in a metal tube. Just my personel opinion of course. [/quote] Well, it's what makes the likes of NE a producers dream and very employable [still after all these years] To the many Youtube hopefulls, it's just a dream, Garry

Nathan East is one of my favourites. Great set of lugs on him. Many moons ago i saw him dep on a Lee Ritenour gig at the Baked Potato. Handled everything thrown [dots/busking wise] at him with little effort, Perfect for Studio work Garry

[quote name='woodster' timestamp='1327135170' post='1506741'] Have a look at [url="http://www.riverstudios.co.uk/"]http://www.riverstudios.co.uk/[/url] We're in Southampton and we know what we're doing.... Chris [/quote] Hey Chris, seems like you have a useful all round establishment going on there. Looks like a great set up. Well worth people having a look. Garry

Yep, i wonder if he can hold down 4 to the floor for 5 minutes, Stuff Pub Drummers think they can do Garry

Check this dude out. Pretty amazing. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=q6R_49BFnMk"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=q6R_49BFnMk[/url] Garry

[quote name='dmccombe7' timestamp='1327054062' post='1505615'] Have a listen to Gino's new bassist Sandin Wilson. He is very close friends with Jimmy and is also very impressive style. I'll PM you from home tonight with details and some other tracks which were given to me direct from front of house desk. I forgot i also have it on itunes. Dave [/quote] Ok Dave, that would be great. Garry

[quote name='dmccombe7' timestamp='1327001730' post='1505113'] First came across Jimmy Haslip on late 70's album Brother to Brother by Gino Vannelli. That was very impressive and i still rate that as one of my fav albums of all time. Have it on Vinyl, tape and CD now. Dave [/quote] That's a great album, I only ever had it on tape. Thanks for reminding me about the CD. I am just popping into Amazon as i type.

[quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1327007032' post='1505234'] Wrong notes galore. [/quote] Yep, he just can't lose that pub Musician mentality. Garry

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1322519202' post='1452154'] ^ Brilliant!! Well done Gary, that's great news mate Nice track too. Good work.

Another bump for [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Carles Benevant - tremendous player.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]And of course check out the great Bobby Vega - as funky as they get.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Garry[/font][/color]

[quote name='Spoombung' timestamp='1326917963' post='1503828'] Oh God, he's one of those people who [i]chews[/i] his own notes. Yuk. [/quote] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]And there are quite a few nice notes to chew over.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Garry [/font][/color]

This guy plays great. Thanks for posting. Garry

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1326897153' post='1503355'] Seems that white hair is the price to pay... [/quote] Yep, to many parties. Garry

[quote name='louisthebass' timestamp='1326875763' post='1502970'] This is my favourite Jimmy Haslip moment with The Yellowjackets: Russell Ferrante initially plays the bass part while the sax player plays the "head" and Jimmy then takes over playing the bass part seamlessly. I love the way this track swings big time! [/quote] A great Album all round. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq5YK1lKcL0"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq5YK1lKcL0[/url] Garry

That's no party trick..! It ain't a party without your Chapman stick. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qM2oFkQmyPk&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qM2oFkQmyPk&feature=related[/url] Garry

I have met Jimmy Haslip a couple of times, a real gent. Fantastic player. Some great stuff on the first album 'The Yellow Jackets' [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWsE97scAhQ&feature=relmfu"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWsE97scAhQ&feature=relmfu[/url] Garry

[quote name='wombatboter' timestamp='1326733488' post='1501233'] I've read the book and listened to the music... He seems to be in the right place at the right time and obviously is the sort of chap you like to hang out with, there's nothing wrong with that... I quite like this bass-line.. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ECpQFx2ALg[/media] [/quote] Seems to me like he always brings something to the party. Be it humour or Musicianship. Garry
