My favourite at the moment is 'Caribe' from the Michel Camilo Big Band. Anthony Jackson in total control.

Maybe a trip to 'The Den' as well.

As lownote12 said, plenty of great Ethnic restaurants about, but why not try some proper ‘Pie & Mash’... https://www.timeout.com/london/restaurants/londons-best-pie-and-mash-shops And then maybe, Ronnie Scott’s? One of my favourite places in town. https://www.ronniescotts.co.uk/scheduledaily/2018/October/6

Below is a great live version. All written out, including the intro and solo. There are some other tracks as well from Marcus on the PDF. (Not mine, downloaded from Linkedln). 'Run For Cover ' starts at PDF page 23. marcusmillervol1-150824153613-lva1-app6891.pdf

Here is a decent run through of the head with notation and a short lesson. Video. https://www.talkingbass.net/run-for-cover-marcus-miller/ PDF (Head Notation) Run-For-Cover.pdf

Try the Ab Cobalt flats, they have a more flat sound (they go flat by one more).

From one of my favourite albums. Also love ‘Pops’ solo on ‘Spiral’.

Not seen that VSTi. Is it Mac only?

Not often I download new albums I hear on Basschat, but just have with this album.... Top stuff.

Listened to this the other day and yes, lovely Bass playing. I must say though, they all play great. Top grooving going on. The Pianist is terrific.

Voted. Well done all.

Stanley Jordan and his lovely, unique Guitar style...

I love the way the TV host jumps in, fearing another chorus of a walking Bass solo (03:00).... Vittorio certainly had some 'Tap Chops'.

Chas was still posting on Twitter recently...

👍

Zoinks; I thought you meant the other "it wasn't Me' Shaggy"...? Not that either one of us, or anyone one else for that matter, gives a Scooby...

Always loved this version, although I think the original Stylistics version has a terrific vibe to it, that I prefer. That's Dean Brown on Guitar. Shaggy would have trouble lacing Dean's boots, let alone fill them.

Did you ever nip over the river to their boozer in Stoke Newington? Often people remembered going in there, but not coming out....

Yes, very sad news. I did a summer season with 'Chas & Dave' down in Torquay back in the mid 90's. Spent many a night getting pi**ed and partying with them. R.I.P. Chas. Top geezer.

They guy playing the Bass in the video - He also has a video showing you how to put together a contraption for recording what goes on in the neighbours bedroom.... I think the Bass looks great hanging on the wall...👍

Lalo Schifrin - 'Dirty Harry Anthology'.

Although I agree with your (earlier) post. Some cover bands are just so much better than others. Well, Nelson and Frank's band were. This 'cover' is superb, on just about every level.

Van Morrison himself, musicians in the band, critics, journalists etc..called it Jazz. So who are we to argue? I suppose how Jazzy and swinging it is, really depends on who's playing it. EDIT: ( I just noticed that 'Mangotango' beat me to it, above)... "Moondance' started as a Jazz saxophone instrumental, and Van played that original sax solo he wrote for the song. He told Rolling Stone magazine:". "I used to play this sax number over and over, anytime I picked up my horn." "Pianist and organist Jeff Labes recalled the recording of the track to Uncut: "I remember 'Moondance' itself was a big question mark. It was jazzy, and didn't seem to belong to the pack. " "Moondance" was recorded at the Mastertone Studio in New York City in August 1969, with Lewis Merenstein. as producer. The song is played mostly acoustic, anchored by a walking bass line (played on electric bass by John Klingberg), with accompaniment by piano, guitar, saxophones, and flute with the instruments played with a soft jazz swing. It's a song about autumn, the composer's favorite season. Towards the end of the song, Morrison imitates a saxophone. The song also features a piano solo, played by Jeff Labes, which is immediately followed by an alto saxophone solo by Jack Schroer. The song ends with a trill on the Flute during the cadenza that fades out. Music journalist Erik Hage wrote that the significance of the song "lies in its direct jazz approach", expanding that observation with "Astral Weeks had suggestions of jazz, but this song would take the genre head on. It would become Van Morrison's most successful and definitive jazz composition." "Moondance' has always been a jazz song."

Agreed.
