i wont waffle on, but to say, this is the sh*t. .. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34pHnL0OFto[/media]

i think I'm out of my league when Geoff(Beta Funk) is involved.

imo you will get a better Yamaha for the money, than you will an OverWater.

The son of [font="verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif"][size="2"][color="#000000"]Oberdan Magalhaes. Banda Black Rio's founding member. . imo the best Soul Funk, to ever come from Brazil. this is a very special album if you like this sort of stuff. as is the original band and there albums. always musical, always funky.

[quote name='EliasMooseblaster' timestamp='1404030128' post='2488555'] Aye, they've been my favourite for something like the last 15 years. I'm sure I'm not the only person on here whose playing style is influenced by / lovingly ripped off from the Ox. And yeah, the drumming - I know a lot of drummers hate Keith Moon, but he had a style, even if it was a style with little-to-no discipline. Dangerous stuff though: once you start to appreciate it, you'll find more conventional "rock" drummers a bit boring to listen to! [/quote]i really dig his style. the guy was mental, and that comes across in his drumming. he's no billy cobham, but thats what makes him more interesting. he's def not sterile.

I've been listening to a lot of these guys, and I've got to say the drumming is amazing. of course the music is fantastic. this track is just….. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pohhMx9EdNc

possibly.there are so many amazing looking bogus basses out there. but to know what to look for is key. if your buying and you want to be sure, some guys on BC will know without doubt, if it is a fake.

Im aware of a few like Billy Cobham, don't know a huge amount of Frank Zappa, and various others. can you knowledgable people throw me some other stuff. thankyou.

[quote name='KevB' timestamp='1403953176' post='2487982'] Just one of those guys who you couldn't imagine doing much else than music, just seemed to flow from him. Not really my area so could be wrong but I always got the impression he was more appreciated by other artists than he was by the general public and maybe didn't have such a global public recognition as he might have deserved. [/quote]i tend to agree with this. and i think it comes down to him not having any really big hits. apart from across 110th street, which was made more popular because of Tarantino's Jackie Brown, to the general public. its a shame because in the last 5 years or so, he was having a rebirth with various modern artists. his catalogue of recordings are vast. but i really don't think it matters how commercial successful he was.

SUPERB.!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A9SSImXdpU

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1402847565' post='2477203'] A quiet Sunday afternoon so I went through and copied the first 10 pages of videos pasted on this thread (131 videos). Many of the original posts have been removed by Youtube so sorry if you posted way back when and the video is now missing. I'm going to work my way through the videos and hope that it doesn't cost me too much at a later date..
