wombatboter Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 He's got some stuff which I don't like because the technique rules but this blew me away... great sound and energy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esODDfuN3lg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Anyone remember him at bass day a good few years ago? Incredible playing and a really nice guy into the bargain. Sometime after that we met some polish bassists at a Stanley Clarke gig at the Jazz cafe and they weren't that enamoured with mr P at all. Seems everyone has their own taste. i liked him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambient Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Very good playing, but reminds me of Marcus Miller, who I'm not a particularly big fan of. I don't really like slap playing to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy - then already 5 years into playing - never played in front of Pilichowski. But he asked him about some more advanced technique. What was the star's answer? "Kiddo, kiddo... First learn to play correct and then, after all those years, you may start to think about this sort of things." Not the nicest answer to a person whose playing you never had listened to, if you'd ask me. Besides, there are many witnesses who say he considers his technique the only reasonable, good and efficient and tries to force it upon others.

[/quote] Not too sure whether I'd call him a 'star', it's the first I've heard of the guy and whilst he's got impressive technique he's not actually doing anything new at all, just rehashing the same slap thing that's been repeated over and over. The advice isn't terrible either, I don't know how it was delivered but if it was with a sincerity then I actually think it's great advice.

wombatboter Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 When I hear him play it sounds like Mark King who didn't stop practising after the first Level 42 album....That's not a bad thing. That advice isn't too bad either.. some people try to run when they can hardly walk. Years ago I gave a bassplayer some advice (he could hardly play) but he sighed and only wanted to learn the "fancy" stuff. You should go through a couple of stages before you open the rest of the doors.. Met Wojtek at a bass fair in Germany and he was a very funny and openminded person.. he gave his clinic which sounded fresh when I compared it to other bass heroes I saw over there.

[/quote] It was delivered in a patronizing way, or at least my buddy described it as such. And to a guy he just met for the first time and never heard his playing... I called him a "star" deliberately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
