  1. Found this. didn't know Luther backed on vocals. [url="http://www.discogs.com/Chaka-Khan-Naughty/release/436110"]http://www.discogs.c.../release/436110[/url] Willie plays on this one. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Uo46Qs638Y[/media] not from Naughty but this is an all time favourite. fantastic bass from Abraham Laboriel [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZEMoXjl-Xg[/media]
  2. i always thought that Glock preamps have a little HiFi.
  3. Not just some of the best music I've ever heard, but some of the best bass playing ever recorded imo. Anthony Jackson on the first (his bass playing is just so wonderful) and Marcus Miller on the second record. can anyone tell me what record Willie Weeks played on.?

  4. Im in conundrum. i adore the 55-02 i own but I'm not sure i need a 5 string, thing is I'm not in a band that maybe needs a 5 string.if i let it go, i want to find the right four string Jazz bass. It has to be a jazz bass obviously, but I have my reservations about Fenders. what i would really like is a Jo Osborne, or a Moon Jazz Bass. don't get me wrong i would take a Fender, but as we all know the good ones are hard to find, and once you have traded, there is no turning back. any thoughts.?

  6. [quote name='RoRi' timestamp='1421946122' post='2666994'] Nice groove (imo). The Tarantulas 'Sofantastik' [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0icTNDrZxo[/media] [/quote]as always.. that is excellent RoRi…
  7. Love em. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28JAS1ZUUqw
  8. it doesn't take a genius to realise the electric bass has been over engineered. the music is timeless not the instrument.
  9. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1447790238' post='2910453'] The bass guitar is just an instrument... just as a pencil is a pencil, lack of development in pencil and paper technology hasn't stopped people coming up with interesting new poems, novels, dramas, sketches, drawings... [/quote]you just answered your own point. the electric bass is a vehicle for your musical creation. as trivial as it sounds, you can't over engineer a screw driver.
  10. the electric bass as an instrument is done imo. what is endless, is musical imagination.
  11. that is an early non export 75 Jazz Bass no doubt. you can tell by the bigger tuners. you have a PM.
  12. i raise you a Thomas Lang. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5g0MGRaF1oM[/media]
  13. these basses are superb. i have owned the TRB5 with the slap cutaway and the TRB 6 II and they would keep up with most high end basses for build and sound. those Yamaha pickups are seriously good..they are clean, articulate, but dig in and get a growl. The TRB5's, are such well put together instruments imo.
  14. some of the best solo and band drumming I've heard Comes from Billy Cobham, Jeff Porcaro and this genius. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9esWG6A6g-k[/media]
  15. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1447287946' post='2906501'] I use the 'Quote' button, to be found here, on a typical PC browser screen ... Hope this helps. As for 'overplaying', I'm just that much less judgemental in my appreciation of other's work, that's all. To me, there's little to compare between folks, almost whatever their abilities. I can either like 'em or not; that's only for me to decide, but, other than that, it's all good, as far as I'm concerned. Good luck to 'em both, and others of the sort. Yes, we're all different. [/quote]i meant specific quotes Dad3353. but your good sarcasm wasn't lost on me. its not about being judgmental, its just recognising the difference. but yes were all different.
  16. The point of my post was lost somewhat. I'm not knocking the guys technical ability. i was commenting on his playing on this particular record. i think he overplays. "sh*t" was a stronger word than i should have used. I'm sorry. [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]sorry i don't know how to quote other posts.. [/color][/font] [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828] "and that other bloke playing over a 4/4-6/4 count isn't 'overplaying'..? I'm confused."[/color][/font] is improvising on your own overplaying.?. i don't think it is. but i think in a musical situation it can be. Chris Coleman is making it up as he goes along on his own, the other chap is over playing on a classic record. we will all differ musically i guess.
  17. [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1446849242' post='2903005'] What are you getting bent out shape for.....its a promo video [/quote]im not getting bent out of shape bud. I'm saying he's over playing on top of this record.. i don't care if its a promo vid. its sh*t.
  18. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1446852315' post='2903031'] Good drumming..? Try this... [media]http://youtu.be/6kc97rN4Af0[/media] [/quote]awsome. good call.
  19. love these JP TRB's. arguably the best mass market 6 strings in the world.
  20. well i could have bloody told you that Linus.!!
  21. [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1446843226' post='2902933'] But he's not playing in a band situation and is clearly doing it to show off his skills. Not my thing but fair play to him. [/quote]it does make me wonder what his creative intentions might be in a band situation.
  22. i thinks its evidence that a bad drummer can ruin a song.
