RoRi Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 Probably the funky people will like this (?). (this cd: 71 minutes of great music!!). [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B-AZp96Waw[/media] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Valdemar Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I think he needs a new nickname. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I have never been impressed by this guy. Doesn't seem very 'together' as a player to me. Lots of 'wicketty woo' but not a great deal of content. Please signpost me to anything that proves me wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conan Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) It's OK - kind of a mutant offspring of Victor Wooten, Stanley Clarke and Larry Graham, but with less taste than any of those players. But maybe I'm not one of the funky people... Edited November 10, 2014 by Conan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_b Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 This is all very cleaver stuff, but he always sounds to me like he needs to hire a bass player for the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad the drummer's bang-on to keep him right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've checked out his videos online and it isn't happening for me. I think it sounds a bit better than it looks, but still lacks anything ...so not a page I go back to, tbh.

[/quote] To argue about taste is senseless. Some people like to listen to modern music and others still like to listen to Deep Purple, Mud and Status Quo. That's okay by me.

Some isn't and I hear nothing of any depth in this guy's work. It's an opinion. Ignore it if you wish. It is worthless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
