Newfoundfreedom Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I'll never "get" jazz. I'm not doubting the blokes ability to play, but to me that's just a load of meaningless noise. Then again, I suppose many people would say the same about music in the rock genre, which is where I'm much more at home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 IMO it's a really musical solo, very melodic, moving with the chords, enough repetition to make it sound "lyrical" but plenty of variation to keep it interesting. Much better than the standard blues licks and fret-wombling you get from a guitar solo in the rock genre 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffbassist Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Superb! I loved it. Really tasteful improv IMO, plus great tone! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNY Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 What a player, such a beautiful tone, lovely note choices and a sublime, super precise touch. He plays amazing funk as well with Scary Pockets and a band called Pomplamoose. Check him out on the track Silly Boy. Scary player with a nod to the past in his approach as well.

You trot this same line out on every thread that mentions jazz. Nothing wrong with an opinion but it gets a bit tiring, you know? Out of interest, what is jazz?

spectoremg Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 If that had been audio only I'd have said it was Jaco when he was on the slide. Very ordinary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleat Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Never have so many notes said so very little musically or emotionally. I do try to give any type of music a fair listen to see if I can connect with it or be inspired in some way. Sadly with this sort of thing, I just don't "get it". 🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoonBassAlpha Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I liked that. Sounded nothing like Clark or Pastorius, other than he was playing a bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shug, I think you've misunderstood me, what I meant to say was that's the typical kind of excess that bedroom geeks wet themselves over but is in fact utter $h1te.
