Ricky 4000 Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 It's been nice to watch young Julia get better and better on the bass, via her YT covers videos. I think she makes a great job of this: 👍 👍 7 Quote
drTStingray Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Apart from her accuracy in this cover - I'm astonished how good that U bass sounds in terms of copping the correct sound 👍😊 1 Quote
Heathy Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 I love that style of bass playing. Is it a James Jamerson line? Quote
Cat Burrito Posted September 4, 2020 Posted September 4, 2020 Some of the post Diana Ross stuff from the 70s is great too, like 5.30 Plane. Quote

drTStingray Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) Her versions of Hallucinate by Dua Lipa and Hair by Graham Central Station are also really good. Everything I've heard her do is, she has great timing and groove - can't be bad when Joe Dart, Stuart Zender and Flea have all commented favourably on her covers of their work 👍 Edited September 5, 2020 by drTStingray Quote
funkle Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 She’s a fantastic player. I’ve spent months learning how to do her version of ‘Juice’ note for note. It’s a ripper. And tricky. 1 Quote

I'm subbed to her YouTube channel too. https://www.youtube.com/c/juliaplaysgroove19 During the lockdown her bass vids really cheered me up and really inspired me to pick up my bass when I hadn't felt like doing so for a long time. I joined her patreon thingy and send her $5 a month as a 'thank you'. Edited September 8, 2020 by miles'tone 5 Quote
drTStingray Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 I got a notification to say the tabs of all her covers are available on her Patreon site also. 1 Quote
funkle Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 I saw that. I have decided that I will get more out of her lines if I learn them by ear, so I’m deliberately avoiding tabs/sheet music. But it undoubtedly will be a great resource for her subscribers. Quote
