3V17C Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 don't think i've posted this before but just found it lurking on my hard drive.. The bass solo from Mr Big's version of the Deep Purple track 'Burn' its not on youtube as they deleted the audio but i've uploaded it to another site (not sure how to embed that here though so follow the link!)

ficelles Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Ok I know this is a bit like "dad dancing" but here ya go, old people playing rawk. Recorded live in RockDigi Studios, Redwood, MI last year. No zimmer frames were harmed in the making of this video. ficelles Quote
Huw Foster Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Been quiet for a while on the videos front (read: OBSCENELY busy everywhere else). However, today I thought I'd put a bit of foam under the strings of my Precision and give this tune a go: Bubinga5 requested it AAAAAGES ago, so there you go mate! Quote
deej Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Did my first ever attempt at a video today. Was a ball ache trying to sync it, but it didnt turn out half as bad as I expected! Quote

Very clean playing, and very inspiring. Cheers for posting that. Quote
Me And My Bass Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) Gig we done last year for German football team St Pauli . . . . bum notes and all. Edited July 6, 2011 by Me And My Bass Quote
Magnolia Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Bum notes a plenty. In my defence I couldn't see bugger all.... Quote

Kevin Glasgow Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) Hi Folks, Here's a solo vid I recorded a while ago:- Here's a vid from a gig I did last week:- Cheers, Kev Edited July 19, 2011 by Kevin Glasgow Quote
fretmeister Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) A well dodgy jam from the Gasfest a few years ago. You can hear me in the into... and can see me next to the drummer only after 2:50 ish when the camera moves!! Dodgy sound indeed - probably not helped by me trying to play Hysteria on the fretless.... Edited July 20, 2011 by Bilbo Quote

SteveK Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 A couple of weeks ago - Lorely "Rock the Nation" It had been p***ing down for most of the day, so credit to the punters for sticking around and giving us a very warm welcome :-) Quote
Bilbo Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 That solo bass piece is beautiful, Kevin. Unlike most solo electric bass, it is sold by the harmonic and melodic content, not by the technique (which is there in spades but serving the performance, not defining it). Great stuff. Quote

You have great tone in your mind and fingers and it all comes out with great beauty. Immensely expressive playing that really touched me. I can't stand this kind of solo bass normally, I think the timbre is all wrong and it sounds so much better on guitar, BUT, not in this case because it sounds rich and has its own voice. I only watched it because of what Bilbo and lowdown said. I'm glad I did because for five minutes my life was greatly enriched. Great technique is completely pointless unless you know what to do with it, and you have an aesthetic. I sense a little hint of competitiveness in the composition, but no more, it's really really beautiful! Congratulations. Quote

If I hadn't seen the video I think I would have struggled to be certain what it was played on. No offence to Kevin but this musical style does nothing for me but it was impressive playing. Quote
