Linus27 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Really good video by Scott on 17 greatest fretless bassists. Shame a few really key bassists were missed like John Giblin, Paul Webb and Sting but still really good and that Ibanez sounded so sweet. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No lust in Jazz Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 There are a couple of bassists that I like, missing from their list - Patrick O'Hearn & Alfonso Johnson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 There's simply not enough 'The 17 Best....' lists, so many default at 10 or 25, whereas 17 makes so much more sense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 I need to watch this on the big machine with headphones. Given the horrible weather we’re expecting up here, this will pass half an hour nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Enjoyed that and Ian Allison's Ibanez on the front pickup sounds great. He's a great fretless player too, but he plays the intro to "Hat" wrong, he misses the double stop. That said, I wish I has his chops (and that Musician). As has been said, it's a shame that the likes of John Giblin are missing (did you know that Rob Mullarkey is his son?) and I would have like to have seen Larry Klein in that too, but where do you stop? Anyone interested in hearing Tony Levin play lots of fretless (he certainly plays a lot more fretless with Peter Gabriel these days) check out his live album, Double Espresso, it's all fretless, when it's not Stick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
