  1. I'm not a huge fan of his slap all of the time. 3 Deuces is fantastic. Thankyou I will check those out.
  2. It occurred to me I had no idea who was playing bass on some of my favourite records. by my suprise I found out it was Marcus Miller. Thing is he's so under the radar session wise, you would never know it was him playing and in his session days that's what made him great. He just played it for the record. There are 500 albums out there of Marcus's playing. Please share if you know. ? One of my favourite Jazz funk records. Its utter magic and his bass playing is just.🔥
  3. Records like this are why I love soul house and funk. Superb playing from Mr Crampton...

  4. WOW. You never see these early TRBp,s with a quilted top ever especially in this condition. Really rare bass.
  5. The bass ball fat neck concernes me. I had a BB PJ and I sold it for that very reason. I owned a USA Lakland JO and the neck was just wow. Slim but flat back to front. What an incredible instrument that was. Need to try a Moon me thinks J. Amazing how the shape of a piece of wood changes your feelings towards expressing yourself.
  6. Jay you notice any difference between the slanted neck pickup to the JJ. ?
  7. Keep the foto flame ( if possible )and get it refinished/ lacquered by David Wilson. He sprayed my Atelier Z and it was superb.
  8. I'm looking to buy a great Jazz Bass because Im about to sell my house and be mortgage free . Yay.!!.. I was looking for any opinions on these two. Ive owned a 1996 MIJ non export 75 and it was fantastic so I dig that maple/maple jazz bass sound. But I've never played a Moon JJ4 so I'm curious as to 1. what are the necks like on a Moon,.,I prefer a shallow C shape. 2. does a Moon JJ4 sound like a 70s jazz bass. I'm aware Moon slanted the neck pickup to give a fuller sound on the E string and the early JJ4s have a bartolini pre amp and pickups.. Any experience and thoughts from someone who has owned both or just the Moon is much appreciated. I would be looking for a 90s JJ4.
  9. Before Andrew started making basses under the name Anaconda he made other basses like this amazing Ostinato Jazz bass that I bought from the Bass Gallery in 2010. Emg pickups. Aguilar OBP2, Alder body Olivewood top. It was a fantastic instrument.
  10. Play an MIJ non export 70,s spacing JB 75 from the 90s. They are just superb and a proper Jazz bass.
  11. I had one of these and they are bonafide great jazz basses. Sounded amazing.. I ordered a brown tort for it.. glwts.
  12. Any bass player from Ozric Tentacles. Or Marcus's bass playing on any of Luther's records. His bass playing on this is the reason he is regarded so highly imo. It's just a masterclass in for the record understated slap.
  13. This is just a powerhouse of a live concert imo. Micks voice is just way out there with an amazing amazing band.
  14. I asked Marcus and they are now Lakland dealers. I'm now in trouble. It's great news as imo it's one brand that they were missing imo. . https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1BvK5WtZHN/

  16. I'm sure I owned this can a while back. Could be wrong. Was fantastic
  17. A fantastic mix of her classic Paul.
  18. Yes I so dig it Paul. !!! She was a favorite for a lot of DJs I believe.
  19. Anyone who loves rare groove will know this legendary singer songwriter who was known as the Queen of Rare Groove. Very sad to hear she has gone. Many headphones I've been through listening to her EPIC vocals and grooves and this cracker was one of them..
