BBC World Service - Carol Kaye

[lowdown]

This was on earlier today and I thought it might interest some of the Basschat members.

It's just under 30 minutes long...

 

The Documentary - Carol Kaye: Queen of the bass - BBC Sounds

Thanks

[Staggering on]

Thanks, I enjoyed that.

[upside downer]

Cheers for that 👍

[NHM]

well worth a listen. She's so imaginative, creating distinctive bass lines that add so much to the songs whilst remaining a team player.

Thanks for that, most enjoyable

Just listened…. Very good 

Didn’t seem to be available for download though.

I had no trouble downloading it using 'get_iplayer'. Worth a try..?

Thanks for the tip. 

I only occasionally come across a program which is not available for download, so just listen at home via WIFI.

If it was frequent I would consider the above.

What file format does it give?

M4a. I can pop it onto my Google Drive if you want; you could pick it up from there..? 

Edit: PM sent...

Very interesting. Where does Ray Pohlman come in all this. He’s credited alongside CK on a lot of stuff she did including Righteous Bros and Beach Boys to name but a few.

 

Anyone?

Try http://www.albumlinernotes.com/Ray_Pohlman.html  and his Wiki page.

Talking of Ray Pohlman, these two cues from the original 'Hawaii Five-O' sessions appeared on YouTube. (The main theme only a couple of weeks back).

One of my boys stumbled on them while researching for a project he is working on about TV/Film composer/arranger/conductor, 'Morton Stevens'.

 

There are a couple of photos of Ray Pohlman on it. Also, a photo of Carole Kaye, playing Guitar.

Has Carol never claimed that it is her under a pseudonym 😉?

[Bay Splayer]

Didn't she play on most of the Motown hits? 😉

I had her books. But I didn't know she played on EVERYTHING I listened to. Just found out she was on Cocker's Feelin' Alright.
