OP: No. And Pet Sounds is WAY better than Sgt. Pepper.

Sony MDR-7506 Pro Studio Monitors. I use them for playing Chapman Stick (full-range instrument) and listenin' to music & vids.

That could be adapted to the Chapman Stick. Not by me, though...

I played "Bassically" with a Morely Wah and a girl came up after and said wasn't that a bit "expanding"? I asked what she meant by that and she said she felt like she "had to go to the bathroom". Don't know if she was dissing me but I took it as a compliment.

"Sound like" as opposed to "copy", Chris Squire, Stanley Clarke, John Wetton. Tried to copy a lot of guys.

When this came out we didn't have a slow-down mode. No 16 2/3 rpm on my turntable. And it would have been an octave lower to boot. Just listened to this earlier. coolcoolcool

Reaching for the handle, bacon in my hand.

"What are you listening to right now"

The Heavenly Music Corporation - Fripp & Eno

How do you embed a youtube vid? Anyway, Hip Hop Lollipop feat. Fantaazma. It's Bootsy, baby, his latest. Fantaazma reminds me of Nina Hagen.

Damn still can't do it. How do you embed youtube vids? Anyway, Bootsy Collins feat. Fantaazma - Hip Hop Lolly Pop. I mean, what's not to like...

Tapped that Madison Avenue bassline. Gonna explore it when I get off BassChat. Listening to Ozric Tentacles Space for the Earth right now...

Dolbys Aliens Ate My Buick is the Most Killer Album ever and Terry Jackson is The Hammer of The Gods.

It makes you feel alright exactly because tutti frutti oh rootie. Wop bop a loo bop a lop. Ba ba.

Scott LaFaro. Tragically short life. First time I heard the Bill Evans Trio and his playing I forgot to breathe and almost died.

Stick Enterprises. Difficult w/ email, but when you call them they are great. Now, if you don't live in the US you might hafta call in the middle of the night, etc., but bizniz hrs., done, done, and done. Jeff answers the phone these days. It used to be Yuta Chapman or Grace Chapman (!) Last time I ordered strings, the FIRST TIME since 1985 (!) there was a wrong string & Jeff promptly sent it on it's way. It was a custom gauge set, but the wrong string was not the "custom" part of the set. Also if some sort of hardware breaks (the belthook can break if put under duress) it's off in the mail NC. VERY small company. Emmett (now Grace) builds them in the garage in Laurel Canyon CA.

Dirty Blue Gene - Beefheart

Thank you for turning me on to Ozric Tentacles. Cool Gong-ish band. As for female bass players, and being a bassist (yes, I play the Chapman Stick but think it like a bassist even while playing the thin strings), I find them just SEXY. And intimidating when they play whup-*ss shenanigans.

Morley.

I'm American & they don't bugger me. Then again I play Chapman Stick so they don't know what to make of me.

Nice mug!

Red Clay!

I always liked Frank Zappa meets The Mothers Of Prevention.
