PawelG Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Eric Czar is one of my favorite bass players of all time. His melodic bass lines are something I look up to. Absolutely fantastic player. I always admired the simplicity and how effortless he makes it look. You have videos like this: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHzrXNlZgYY"]https://www.youtube....h?v=JHzrXNlZgYY[/url] and I mean - the atmosphere that he creates with the fretless sound. Fantastic. And then you have this: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zf7kSGIcDpA"]https://www.youtube....h?v=zf7kSGIcDpA[/url] - it sounds impressive and is very interesting, looks effortless and his tone is a killer but for me the playing is way over the top. I know that bass can be a percussive instrument but come on... Bass players that know a lot more than me - please help me understand what is this about. Quote
Bbiigg Kev Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Over the top !!! Wasn't that Cozy powell album ? Quote
dmccombe7 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Yep agree he is extremely talented both at playing and songwriting and i really enjoy his "normal" solo bass work like the first clip however he does do a lot of double or multitracking but his technique is fascinating to watch. The 2nd clip was a waste of time to me and boring. Would hate to have been in the audience at that point. Probably a good time for a Pee break during the gig Dave Quote
