I liked that. 👍 +1 ^^ I guess the drummer was particularly ugly, which is why he's been kept out of the limelight, or any light really...😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like you have a particular 'look' in your basses - would I be right in saying that your Aria SB700 is pretty similar styling wise (ignoring the actual wood finish you've gone for)? Yes , the aria is a lighter colour , not dark stain like the ibanez, both through necks and very 80s sounding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Krow Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 @Sibob - your band? Very pro sound (not least the bass) and video - loved it! I had to do a double take as I thought that was 21 July, just 6 days back and was thinking how the heck did they bag that gig?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, yeah I've been playing with Jocee for about 6 years now I think. We played a sold-out headline set at Hideaway in London and the venue decided they wanted to film it......fine by us haha. Yeah I was particularly happy with the bass tone, although to be fair, that bass was just killer in general, I really regret selling it (the person won't sell it back to me either....don't blame them).

I'm playing organ on this as we had a proper 'real' bassist at the time 😂 Can't wait to play live again. Or go back to Greece! That's the geezer in Silver Fox! This is interesting stuff, it's not his usual Yacht Rock (which is also very good). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used the Fretless Gus for our cover of "She's In Parties" at a couple of gigs. However it's now been sold to HappyJack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I don’t think I’ve visited this thread before, so here’s the last video we put up on our channel from just over a year ago. From happier times before social distancing was a thing 😬. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Krow Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 @skidder652003 - your version of Black Dog which you posted elsewhere, was so good it made me ask my band if they would be up for doing it! Guitarist said he would prefer something a little easier, I'll see if he is up for Stairway... 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is interesting stuff, it's not his usual Yacht Rock (which is also very good). Well spotted! Yeah, he always has a ton of projects on the go like Young Gun Silver Fox, The Electric Peanut Butter Company, Shawn Lee & AM, The Incredible Tabla Band, etc, plus a load of soundtrack things as well but I only play with him when he does his solo singer-songwriter gear, or when he does Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra which is just the best fun gigs I could ever have really. We both DJ for Soho Radio too which is a good laugh. As a session musician he's done drums or guitar for Robbie Williams, Kelis, Amy Winehouse, Saint Etienne, and loads of big shiny chart acts. Plus old-school folks like Tony Joe White as well. But the most fun is when he's fronting his own band. When we get some gigs again I'll give a heads-up on here. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I shared your other video with the band and it's clearly inspired them - the guitarist has spent the evening learning the Black Dog riff! Dammit, I'd best go work on the bass line then! 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
