Hi folks,

Here's a wee solo video. It's an improvisation over the changes of the classic jazz standard All the Things You Are. Hope you enjoy it :)

Outstanding, lovely tone (as usual, Kevin).

On another note, I like the way you are hanging your washing out to dry on your fretboard, as you are playing.
Great multi tasking.

Thanks Lowdown!

Hehe yeah, I reckon I could probably fit a few more pairs of socks on there, or maybe a pair of underpants! It might help the tone! ;)

awesome

saw JB live in 1980 with Sector27 playing that rather nice fretless P at Hull Uni Students Union

He's still got an old fretless P. It's in need of some work mind, so sadly didn't get a chance to play it.

This is a gig I did a while ago, with Sandy Tweeddale, at The Jazz Bar in Edinburgh. It was a basically a jam, with guys I don't usually play with, but actually sounds like we know what we're doing. Sandy's an excellent blues guitarist when he's sober (he wasn't) and a pretty decent one when he's drunk. The rest of the band are sober though, so we have no excuse when we cock it up. If you like Blues, I hope you'll enjoy it.

Solid bass playing, holding it down.

just remove the 's' after 'http', and surround the link with 'media' and '/media' tags (wrapped in square brackets where the quotes are)... then it'll look like that above.

The Destroyers!!! I love that band. I had the good luck to support them a couple of years ago at Balkanarama in Edinburgh and Glasgow, they were amazing :)

Ah ok thanks. I left the band about 2 years ago and did a few Balkanaramas before then so I might've been there! Still doing the odd gig with them when they need a dep like on Saturday, bloody good fun. You're right, an amazing band.

It was May 2014... there was a fire alarm very early during the set in Glasgow and we all had to leave. You'd remember that if you were there :)

Yes I was still in the band at that point but I think I wangled my way out of that gig. Couldn't face another year of crashing on the floor of Saska's flat with fourteen snoring hairy men...

Horn section turned up impromptu at gig. This tune was announced, I'd last played it about 12 years ago! Eeks, count of 6 at the end of the "verse" - blagged it a bit.
They have threatened to come along again (have known trombone player for ages) - that would be so good.

Recording of a dep that the singer from my band and I did on Saturday. Easy to learn the set because they use backing tracks so they sent us the tracks and we were both able to run through a few bits on our own before the gig. Went well despite the drummers best attempts at making us laugh to put us off.

Cracking stuff, Kev! I used to love playing this song with my old jazz band - though I was certainly never doing anything that impressive with the bass part!
