It is now. Six pieces for a tenner.

That sounds like Terry Gregory. He is/was an upside down lefty (Bassist, not Politician).

Yeah, very sad news. His talent aside, I also loved a lot of those huge arrangements that went hand in hand with The Walker Brothers. RIP

Maybe try and get a gig with 'Latvian Radio Big Band'...? They're really busy, plus judging by the OP video, there are a few grumpy, moody's in there as well.

Well, he is young. I agree with the OP, the band ain't bad either...

If you after a free IP loader, maybe try this below. It comes with 70 vintage Impulse Responses. And of course, you can load your own IR's. https://impulserecord.com/project/convology-xt-plugin/

There seems to be this myth that Jaco played and recorded everything on Fretless. He used both quite a lot. Plus, when Jaco played Fretless, he sure did let everyone know... Mawaaaa...

So Jamerson made a claim, not Babbitt then? I was asking Geek99 what Bob Babbitt had claimed. So far, the only reply to that was, PPI. Which might well have been the only realistic claim so far in all this

What claims did Bob Babbit make ?

Haha... A gig myself, Bilbo and a couple of others have banged on about over the years. Certainly one of my favourite live concerts. 👍 Michel Camilo's Trio gigs are great as well.

Ray Brown having a knock on Teen Town.

Noticed this earlier on a friends Facebook page. Yes, a great player. It seems he had been unwell recently (judging by his Facebook postings). He also stopped posting a couple of weeks back. One of my favourite solos from Jeff Andrews.

Just a curious question really... For those that say that they will not play Michael Jackson songs, where would that put you if you were depping in a band that played MJ tunes? Would you not take the gig? or if you took on the gig, would you just stand there with your hands behind your back and not play a note? Like I said, just interested to know.

Although they have been around for a while, Sample City have an excellent bunch of Bricasti M7 Reverb IR's (all free). http://www.samplicity.com/bricasti-m7-impulse-responses/

Noticed this on Facebook earlier, although he was 90, it's still sad to read about it. Apart from being a top, top player, he was quite a character with his show biz stories.

Lovely feel in your playing. Great stuff. 👍

Will Lee's signature set might mess with your head, they are in 7's... https://bassstringsonly.com/product/dms_2694/

Good grief !! Extend article 50.

Yes. sad news. I didn't know him personally, only from his posts. R. I. P. Colin

I know it's only opinions but, I agree with your opinion... 👍

If you earn your living through music and fill out a tax return, you need to be brave enough to write down 'Musician', under occupation (unless your accountant files on your behalf) If you hang around waiting for 'others' to call you musician, I hope they call you musician before January 31st, otherwise there is a £100 coming your way.

Max Romeo fooled us all with his own, penned lyrics, for 'Wet Dream'. "The song gained notoriety due to its lyrics of an explicit sexual nature.. Despite Romeo's claims that it was about a leaky roof."
