visog Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 ...early teens bass players have more chops than you've ever had... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3w0JZpaHDz4 Tone's a bit middley though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colgraff Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Bloody kids. Good playing, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Good luck to the kid but I was bored as soon as I saw the drumkit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planer Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 The European Cymbal Mountain, coupled with 'the more notes I play the better I'll be' just left me stone cold I'm afraid. No warmth in the playing, imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jezzaboy Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 She might have the chops but that sort of playing does my head in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzneck Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Sorry, not my cup of tea I'm afraid. Technically superb but I wonder if they could have held the groove and feeling behind Geno Washington on a hot night in the 60s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlloyd Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) I didn't like it at all. But I quite like this: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vbvg1CPae4U[/media] ....right up to the bass solo.

AndyTravis Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Your kids teachers look young... And when you're a teacher and your kids ask you what it was like in the 50's. I'm 31. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lo-E Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 [quote name='dlloyd' timestamp='1446158850' post='2897472'] I didn't like it at all. But I quite like this: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vbvg1CPae4U[/media] ....right up to the bass solo. [/quote]i agree. Far more interesting and musical. That first clip, despite my disinterest in that style and approach, still demonstrates pretty amazing chops by two very young players. They're only going to get better - and I'll never have chops like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I watched the video. She's a good bass player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjas Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Impressive chops, but boring as hell to listen to it for any length of time. When I see these great virtuoso bass players, I often think 'why don't they just play a guitar'? Jas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattbass6 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Very clever but, left me feeling cold too. Give me songs and melody with some clever, technical flourishes thrown in, when appropriate, any day. Just my opinion of course Edited October 30, 2015 by mattbass6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
