bubinga5 Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) when i first heard this band in the early 80's, it turned me on to bass.. even if you dont like this band, Randy's bass playing greatness is undeniable... imo.

Sibob Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 See I don't think Groove can be defined or quantified personally, different people feel different things. To me, this grooves like an absolute biz-nitch...yet there's no discernible bass part, and the drums are programmed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_G5BNRnJiLw Noice Si Quote

jackduran Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Not the best sound quality on the vid, but this is amazing. Great bass playing (of course) and the type of groove that would work at a fast or slow tempo (if you were to slow the track down). http://youtu.be/bI_D3ruKxIM Quote

Mykesbass Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Posted a Meters track here a while ago, having heard them on Craig Charles' show - just got a Best Of from Amazon - don't know how I've spent so long being a music fan and never knowing of these guys - that stuff is soooooo funky, highly recommended, but then you probably all knew that already Quote
