sure is good. Going to see them in July.

i always thought she was a superb talent. Beautiful woman also. great on a Les Paul.

this is something very special from Shuya Okino. this is very cool also. when she starts singing. just WOW. groove central. [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyCWKP-MnX8"]http[/url] [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyCWKP-MnX8"]://www.youtube....h?v=tyCWKP-MnX8[/url]

[quote name='Bassnut62' timestamp='1400504858' post='2454400'] of course, seeing as we're all jazzfunkateers at heart, maybe we should give a shout out to James Mason too and for any of the tracks on the Rhythm of Life LP [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dE9__9pzr4Q[/media] [/quote]thats one of the best jazz funk records ever written in my opinion. James Mason is a master of this genre.. on of my favourite

another classic that was covered by the SunBurst Band with Joey Negro, with Julian Crampton on bass. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bbVXSl91iY

yeah its a cracker Geoff. Don Blackman plays piano on a lot of it. he might even have played on this record.

I love this album. its astounding to think he was 19 when he recorded it. Smokin music from one of the great keyboard/piano players of the late 70's early 80's. Bernard's playing on the rest of the album is incredible. arranged by Bernard Wright. I'm not sure of the bassist on this record, but it was either Marcus Miller or Barry Johnson. I've a hunch it was Barry Johnson, just doesn't sound like Marcus's style to me, but i could be wrong. . [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsJHdZ3aXLw[/media]

[quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1400370139' post='2453336'] I think that's exactly the point for me Andrew. He's just doing what a bass player is supposed to do and doing it superbly. What was that old saying about less is more? P.S. I was referring to 'I'm a Man' and NOT 'If You Leave Me Now' which i loathe! [/quote]sorry Geoff. i edited my post.

i can't see the astounding bit, but yes, he's on the money with the groove.. the drummer is fantastic. do love Chicago. by the way dad3353 that is a fabulous record.

a totally outrageous record from Bill and this band.. amazing playing from all. great bass playing from Snarky's Michael League. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ia9PLzX1RUM

Just thought i would share this guy. he is a superb piano player, arranger. i just think he's excellent. check him out on Facebook JD73 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w62EICN4Qz4

best to let some music speak maybe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhAK_ediox4

There is something about this band that i so dig. [font=sans-serif][color=#252525]Johnnie Wilder is awesome. I'm not sure Rod Temperton played keys on this funk classic. cracking record all the same. [/color][/font][url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKjkwpgKMd8"]http://www.youtube....h?v=pKjkwpgKMd8[/url]

thats very cool RoRi. a funk nail on a groove head boy.

[quote name='Japhet' timestamp='1398504176' post='2434712'] Hey Bubinga - have you seen the stuff from Montreux where she has David Dyson on bass? There's some serious groove going on there I can tell ya! [/quote]Yeah for sure Japhet, I've seen bits. what i have seen is awesome. and David is a magician on the bass. feel free to post something i might not have seen though.

[quote name='timhiggins' timestamp='1398503910' post='2434704'] Thats great,...does anyone know what bass is she playing ? [/quote]its either a Japanese 75 reissue or an original 1970's jazz bass. but she's i known to love the CIJ/MIJ Fenders. i would edge a bet and say it was a Japanese 75. could be wrong. I'm digging that Ibanez ATK 5 that her back up man is playing also.

Crackin vid from this amazing musician. wait for her playing at 3.10 onwards. such a musical person she is. Peace Beyond Passion will always be one of the best albums I've ever listened to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ2w_cW55Pc

technically brilliant. great at doing covers. havent heard the album but that song, like german engineering, is a bit soulless

[quote name='RoRi' timestamp='1397578191' post='2425342'] Breakwater! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_uF3npmqg4[/media] [/quote]awsome stuff.!!

This is as slick as it gets imo. Pino's playing is just so good. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwONNUQQFpw[/media] (excuse the shaky camera) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgtqD_zyGPw[/media]

i just love this record first off. then Leland Sklar on the bass. could you want a better bassist in your band than that dude.? fantastic vocal power. love the build up to this live performance. Mr Phillips on drums. what more could you want. fantastic musicians all round. Toto dipping into Weather Report at 5.45 ! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRH_OZbRvZ8[/media]

just a heads up for those who dig this band. Its called Amplified Soul. available for pre order i believe. wont be available until june i think. ? i could be wrong. believe me ive heard a sample and it kicks ass.

Just thought i would share this website that my girlfriend showed me. you can search the whole world, for any subject. i thought the bass guitar section was quite cool. great for presents etc. http://www.etsy.com/uk/search?q=bass%20guitar&order=most_relevant&ship_to=GB

What a great band. . and i love them. I've heard some incredible vocals from mature women as I'm sure we all have . but this is quite something for some one so young.[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTx7lNr9uBw[/media]
