jezzaboy Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Liked Imelda on Jools tonight. The last time I watched her on the program, her bass player was playing an upright but tonight had a nice white Jazz with a rosewood board through a TE stack. Simple but effective.

casapete Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Bassist is Al Gare, a great player! Older BC ers may remember him playing upright with King Pleasure and the Biscuit Boys, excellent 50's style r'n'b band. Think he's also done some stuff with Richard Hawley too. Can i just give a big shout for Si Nixon from Leeds who was playing trumpet with John Legend on the same show - nice one Si!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goblin Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I reckon he'll still be playing upright on Friday, I spotted it on it's side next to one of his stacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool - their percussionist / sax player, Pete Williams, sometimes fills in for us on congas or bongos. He's a nice guy and I love their afrobeat version of Crosstown Traffic.

Cat Burrito Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I saw Imelda May live earlier this year. The rhythm section depressed me - too talented! Al Gare is a seriously awesome player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Just watched Imelda Mae on Friday Jools - she and her band are very good Was it me or did the neck on the bass player's Jazz bass (very nice oly white one, BTW) look like a tree trunk?

Loved Al's bass on Jools show too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakenewmanbass Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 (edited) I'm sure I know the drummer too, his name is Steve something, I did a bluesy gig with him somewhere in Barnes with a band called sugar T and the Swells. Yep I thought they sounded great!! Edited October 16, 2010 by jakesbass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Mrs C was furious that Imelda Mae got three songs (she hates 50s type music) and her beloved Ray Davies and Mumford & Sons got only one. Does seem rather unbalanced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Never heard of the lass until she was on Johnny Walker (Thurs night?) Loved the stuff she did and will be getting some of her releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu-khag Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 just watched the show. Cyndi Lauper's neck looks like one of those slinky spring things. I don't normally comment on people's appearance but it was so bloody distracting. I honestly cant remember a word she said or anything she sung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
