  1. Old ones are still there, funkgod. Once you have found them and used them, they stay at the top of the menu under ‘recently used’. ‘The Yoko Motion’ (I think it has been posted before).
  2. Yep, it would be nice... Although, if anyone really gave a Sausage, it could be amended to read “Bratwurst“....
  3. Agreed. That's why I enquired earlier as to why it was the worst song. The actual tune is not a stinker, lyrically maybe not a gem, but hook wise it does the job. There are a couple of decent covers knocking around as well (IMO of course).
  4. You can set up a publishing company in the way that BRX said. However.... If you want PRS/MCPS to collect any royalties for publishing, you will need to join them first. Check out the 'Music Publishers Association' for some good advice. https://mpaonline.org.uk/mpafaqs/how-do-i-form-a-music-publishing-company/ Joining MCPS as a publisher. https://www.prsformusic.com/join/publisher/what-you-need-to-join-mcps Joining PRS as a publisher. https://www.prsformusic.com/join/publisher/what-you-need-to-join-prs
  5. Of course and agree. Also, it depends on what inversions and voicings are being played elsewhere in the band or Orchestra. The arrangement dictates where & when to play up there, along with taste, of course. It can be a very lyrical area to play in, the fretless loves it up there (melody wise). Lee Sklar's Bass part in 'Theme From Mahogany' worked a treat starting up high in the intro, then dropping down for the 2nd part of the verse.
  6. A video from a post over at VI control. Orchestrating Video Game Music (a very enjoyable watch too...)
  7. In my opinion that OP video is just drivel. Why is 'Imagine' the worst song Lennon ever wrote? Just curious really. I think it's a decent tune, although I prefer performances by a couple of others who have recorded it.
  8. I use two. One weighted Keyboard for playing keyboard parts in (VSTI's) - A Yamaha P71 (88). I also have a Nektar Panorama P4, which I use for all my parameter/automation controlling, along with CC#'s etc on Virtual Instruments. The pads are also good for Percussion & Drums etc. All my Orchestral Instrument parts are played in with this as well. It's semi weighted, but I prefer it for the Single line Instruments.
  9. I think I read somewhere that Joe Sample might have played on that album. Tom Scott and Joe Sample used to work together along with Max Bennett before LA Express. So possibly, Max Bennett? Why not send Tom Scott an Email? https://www.tomscottmusic.com/contact-us
  10. My favourite at the moment is 'Caribe' from the Michel Camilo Big Band. Anthony Jackson in total control.
  11. Maybe a trip to 'The Den' as well.
  12. 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
  13. 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
  14. 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
  15. Try the Ab Cobalt flats, they have a more flat sound (they go flat by one more).
  16. From one of my favourite albums. Also love ‘Pops’ solo on ‘Spiral’.
  17. Not seen that VSTi. Is it Mac only?
  18. Not often I download new albums I hear on Basschat, but just have with this album.... Top stuff.
  19. 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.
  20. Voted. Well done all.
  21. Stanley Jordan and his lovely, unique Guitar style...
  22. 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'.
  23. Chas was still posting on Twitter recently...
