If you wanna be one of the lads as far as session's go ...... Get yourself sorted with a good recording set up and a FTP client. Then you can do sessions in the nude while watching Eastenders. Thats if you dad aint busy downloading 'Debbie does Dallas' and sniffing glue. Garry

[quote name='silddx' post='518119' date='Jun 19 2009, 09:43 AM']However, most the the stuff on offer is the same old soporific standards that make me want to eat my own face.[/quote] I think that really depends on who is playing 'the same old soporific standards' But i know what you mean. Garry

Confirmation - Niels Pederson. If you are into NP. This one has plenty of kicks and triplets. [attachment=27301:Confirma...Pederson.pdf] Garry

Stella by Starlight - Paul Chambers. 2 feel then into 4's. [attachment=27296:Stella_B...Chambers.pdf] Edit... Just noticed that when it goes into the walking line [ actually the swing 8 notes - A section ] The first 2 notes should be E Naturals and not Eb's. Garry

Alps Loos is an anagram of slap solo. Adolf Loos was responsible for a design of building in the Austrian Alps. There is some info below...... which is about as useful as a slap solo in the Uk these days... According to some Basschatters........ Khuner Country House Alpenhof Kreuzberg, Fam. Steiner A-2650 Payerbach Kreuzberg 60 Austria Adolf Loos and Heinrich Kulka 1930 The Khuner Country House is a late work of Loos, completed when he was sixty, in the same year as the Villa Müller in Prague. Like the Villa Müller, a restrained (in this case somewhat traditional) facade hides a subtle interior design of different room heights – Loos' Raumplan. Garry

Not that I'm some sound obsessed speaker designing audiophile weirdo or anything... Alex[/quote] It think it was supposed to be the ideal reference CD at the time, Because of the pristine sound [of that time] Garry

[quote name='dlloyd' post='515791' date='Jun 16 2009, 09:52 PM']...okay, enough for one night![/quote] Its a pity there is not one dedicated place for scores / parts / charts etc, a library sort of thing, a bit like the groove library thread. There is plenty of good stuff scattered all over Basschat. Garry

Walk Beneath the Raindrops... Was it Will Lee on Bass? Garry

[quote name='dlloyd' post='515741' date='Jun 16 2009, 08:50 PM'] typing out the titles themselves is taking long enough![/quote] Beats Eastenders though! Garry

[quote name='dlloyd' post='515718' date='Jun 16 2009, 08:37 PM']I think they'd serve better as a list from which requests could be made (?)[/quote] Much better idea... Garry

Ok... I will get those from the list up first. [ will take some though ] Three versions of 'So What' up above . + Two versions of Au Privave Garry

[quote name='jakesbass' post='515642' date='Jun 16 2009, 07:35 PM']Seriously though, Brown was an undoubted bass genius in my mind, there is not a spare or un-meaning note in either of them, not much repitition and they just sing the blues to you all alone,[/quote] Have been watching the Video of 'LA is my Lady' this afternoon. Ray Brown on 'Mack the Knife'...Superb. Garry

So What - Paul Chambers. [ For the solos ] [attachment=27205:So_What_...Chambers.pdf] So What - Neils Pederson [attachment=27206:So_What_...ederson..pdf] So What - Ron Carter [attachment=27207:So_What_...n_Carter.pdf] Garry

[quote name='bassmansky' post='515499' date='Jun 16 2009, 05:24 PM']even a behringer?youre having a laugh [/quote] Even a Behringer. I had to to use a hired one for a gig. The 2x10 combo. Worked a treat. If i was backed into a corner, and had to play with the Ashdown, the Behringer, or Posh Spice. The Behringer would win hands down. Garry

It might be worth putting some up as PDF files, for those without Finale. I have Finale 2009, so i can convert. Any requests ? [b] Edit,[/b] it converts ok. Here is a Ray Brown line for Au Privave [ Just a Jazz blues ] [attachment=27173:Au_Privave.pdf] Sam Jones version [attachment=27208:Au_Priva...am_Jones.pdf] Garry
