Chaka Khan and one of my favourite bass players.

Probably my favourite female vocalist, and my current favourite bassist.

I love this (standard) tune, and have always loved Chaka (still do).
Although this is not her best version of this tune, there is another one on Youtube somewhere,
where she is a lot more together. Still good stuff though.

Melvin is such just a great player, love his groove and timing.

I assume you've seen the whole concert of this on Youtube?

Thanks .

I'll enjoy watching that at some point after my exams end on Friday !

I had this on DVD (lost it!!!)- lovely intro solo but I especially love the subsequent palm mute descending line into the first verse.
That's the money moment for me :-)

Didn't realise there was a DVD .

I thought it was going to be Anthony Jackson?

Bit too smooth for my liking...

And that bass doesn't have enough strings...

this is very cool Melvin on a jazz bass with Lee Ritenour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmsmtF9wMjc
