Over alot of thought without doubt this is my favourite bass player of all time. I love Meshell, Pino, Marcus Miller. But there is a certain something with Melvin. I think it comes down to feel,his attack,his tone, his musical way that he plays. His timing and bass articulation is just so interesting to hear. His timing is absolute perfection. Awsome playing when he switches from finger style to his amazing slap playing. Of course he is a bass player that plays within a certain circle of genres. But I'm sure he could do rock, country and western etc etc. http://youtu.be/YTDD-SyY2MM

This for me is THE classic Ritenoir, Melvin on slap bass track live. Lee Ritenoir said , as alot of Jazz guitarists said he loves the attack that slap gives the music.By the way what a brilliant guitarist that guy is. As is the drumming http://youtu.be/g-wSie6sRRE
