julesb Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 ...I've ever heard. Obviously for this style of music but the recording is incredible to my ears. Pekka Pohjola (who I confess to having never heard of before) on Bass. Brilliant playing throughout the whole album. I thought it was a Pbass but from what I can gather he almost always played a Jazz...Hope you all enjoy as much as I have. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad3353 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 For those supposedly 'allergic' to 'jazz', maybe there's hope of a remedy here..? Compare and contrast with the Mingus stuff posted elsewhere here (but not far enough away, in my view. ..). Good Stuff happening there, from all concerned. Nice; very nice. Slightly rougher around the edges, but this gets me harking back to Meh Teh Cho, with the pumping off-rhythm persistent bass riffs, deceptively simple. I think that bassist was Polish, if memory doesn't betray me. Found him; it's Boris Kulenovic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe best appreciated 'live', in any case. As with much opera, the lyrics pass over my head, but the overall poesy, musicality, feeling comes across just the same. I imagine that much of the planet are foxed by the actual words sung in much modern music (and would maybe not be so keen on a lot of it if all was plain..!). The power of purely instrumental stuff is its universal appeal, but if one treats the human voice as an instrument, independently from the words themselves, there's a lot to be garnered, often enough, whatever the language. (That being said, it doesn't work for me with Kylie Minogue..! ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, back to Olli...😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebigyin Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 (edited) Used to love the Bass and Drum production on the intro to Dallas 1pm by Saxon just thumps in with so much power.....sorry its not in context with the original post but even now that intro still hits the spot.

4000 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Nice. Not mad on the bass sound personally; a bit lacking in heft for me in the context, but nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
