[quote name='Pete Academy' timestamp='1326042596' post='1491466'] A sublime track from a later Chic album. Bernard's bassline is absolutely steaming. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=036Tfy5f1VQ[/media] [/quote]thats killer Pete

[quote name='jackduran' timestamp='1326072879' post='1492021'] I prefer the Joey Negro edit of this but the original is still great. Love the groove in this, fairly straightforward and does exactly what it says on the tin. [media]http://youtu.be/allGAdpPThs[/media] [/quote]good call...

[quote name='M-N-Y' timestamp='1325923576' post='1489818'] Check this out, gobsmackingly good. Rhythm section is insanely good, as is the production and the rest of the musicians. Not a big gospel fan but if this band was playing in my local church I'd be there every Sunday!!! Bass player is Lil Rodney Jones watch out for him!

dont have a link, but his name is Dan Atkinson.. a well known Fender style luthier.. did lots of audio comparisons of different wood bodies.. i would bet thats the thread your talking about? search it on Talkbass

oh maybe im wrong.. i hope its 70's position

wow. this is special stuff.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JlmdW7pW-c

keep up the funk.... check out the 5 string playing on this..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_JYgnpcWn0

reminds me of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ2TxyI6D90

im still listening to it.. puts me in the best mood....yep,the bass line is a very laid back groove with fills to die for... the groove at 4.45 is killer... her scatting is fantastic also.... the original is great too.

i just cant stop listening to that Queen Latifah track.... just wonderful

[quote name='jackduran' timestamp='1325895288' post='1489691'] +1, great tone on that vid. Here's Queen Latifah's wonderful cover of my favourite Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band track, 'Hard Times' (one of my all-time favourite songs). It qualifies for this thread as it's a bit more groove-driven for this thread (though I might give in and post the original at some point!): [media]http://youtu.be/EuByCrbi0q4[/media] [/quote]Jack, you have just hit the spot with that one.. i love that big time..!! what a beautiful woman she is too.

straight up this the finest soul funk ive ever heard... its sooo good... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmYTeD5zxq8

[quote name='jackduran' timestamp='1325810190' post='1488318'] [media]http://youtu.be/s3Fpqrm8wTk[/media] [/quote]that.. is... superb... fantastic stuff...

it is a 75.. but the spacing (for some reason) is set at the 60's position on the MIJ jazz basses

that bass have given real GAS.. love the 2 soap bars with the sunburst...

[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1325864901' post='1489057'] That's nice! It actually sounds very like Marcus Miller in tone and style... [/quote]im on your channel there.. totally did..

just bought this lovely 75 RI US jazz.. my favorite combo.. thanks Simon

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1325850134' post='1488642'] That's why I said they're "ever so slightly different" - don't you understand what that means? I don't class a bit of fancy wood veneer & some different inlays as groundbreaking, innovative or a radical new departure in fenders history - it's just window dressing on the same old sh*te. [/quote]erm... ive just seen the price... we are in total agreement.. you have to understand us jazz bass nuts Rhys, we will think different control knobs are something exciting...
