ambient Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Probably my favourite female vocalist, and my current favourite bassist.

lowdown Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chardbass Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 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 :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visog Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I thought it was going to be Anthony Jackson? Bit too smooth for my liking... And that bass doesn't have enough strings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 this is very cool Melvin on a jazz bass with Lee Ritenour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmsmtF9wMjc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
