greyparrot Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Hi this is just phone video, from the weekend show at Redditch Palace Theatre and the quality is pretty good! I'm Gordon Hendricks Bass player, and we have a good amount of shows in, including the o2 indigo in Dec 🙂 I use my squire 97 P bass for these shows, as it has the right look, and it sounds like a good P bass should. I picked this up last year while playing on the isle of wight for about £150. It's one I won't part with. Thanks for looking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played in a 50's Rock n Roll club band for 3 years and I loved playing the Elvis numbers. My favourite was The Wonder of You but loved Hound Dog, Blue Suede Shoes, Jail House Rock and Elvis's version of Whole Lotta Shakin. I even had an old chap who was an bassist session player from the 60's come up to me and say I'm the only one he's heard play Burning Love properly 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burning love is a big one on this show. Yes they are loads of fun to play, and there is still a huge demand for Elvis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I really miss playing this sort of stuff and the bass lines are just superb, from the early Rock n Roll bass lines right up to the Jerry Scheff parts. We also played stuff by Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Bill Haily etc. and it went down a storm and was so much fun to play. Keep up the great work, its sounding great 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
