cloudburst Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 For those of you who haven't seen it - I don't want anyone to miss this little gem. Beautiful, well filmed, bass playing and a great live gig. Absolute viewing heaven for bass players.

grahamd Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Great stuff, Julian Crampton is the dogs danglies Quote
TimR Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Saw them on Friday night at Camden Jazz cafe. Great show. Quote
cloudburst Posted February 24, 2014 Author Posted February 24, 2014 Could any one of you very clued up effects masters advise me how to achieve that bass tone eg. in the walking bass passages on the first track Fascist Groove Thang. I'm useless when it comes to effects. CB Quote
TimR Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 I don't know. But Berenice Scott was working like a Trojan at the back glueing the whole performance together. Running samples, drum machine, keys etc. Not sure how much is live bass and how much is overlayed synth. http://www.berenice-scott.co.uk Quote
Jazzneck Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 The title of this post says Heaven 17[b] LIVE[/b] in Sheffield then TimR posts this: [quote name='TimR' timestamp='1393341379' post='2378983'] I don't know. But Berenice Scott was working like a Trojan at the back glueing the whole performance together. Running samples, drum machine, keys etc. Not sure how much is live bass and how much is overlayed synth.

TimR Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 The band formed in 1980 and released 3 studio albums. Their first live concert was in 1997. Live means. Guitar, 4 vocalists, 2 keyboard players, bass player plus a shed load of electronic drums and other stuff. As I say, she was working hard. They could easily have just sequenced the drums and keys and sung along to them. Quote
lowregisterhead Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Blimey, takes me back. Whatever happened to John Wilson, who played bass on the original album? Quote
Graham Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Bugger, not available on mobile - any other links? Quote
