  1. [quote name='Brusen' post='795679' date='Apr 4 2010, 01:27 PM']Hub also plays the bass in The Roots, right? Haha, stoncecoldbass' band did not do much to make the version they're playing different from the original live version!!!!! But great band, cd and song(s) IMHO.[/quote] That was actually the whole point of the band and the gigs! To replicate those fantastic arrangements as closely as possible and see what can be learnt from doing so. These guys are at the top of the tree and having transcribed all the bass parts I understand why... craig
  2. Yeah man, those Sharay Reed videos are prob my fave bass clips on youtube, soooo into it! Debra killings is pretty tasty too, cool drumming. Do you have the gospel chops bass shedz dvd by any chance? craig
  3. No way! That is one of my top 5 albums of all time, and I always wanted to know more about the bassist and bass in question! His playing is immense on the album and I know you say that he used a different bass for the recording but it's still a thrill to see this one listed! Check out my band: :-)
  4. GOLD! I'd heard about this but never managed to find it, thanks! Wonder who/why it was recorded.... c
  5. Yes! Downloaded a coupla tracks from their new album, "down the wire" I think one is called. Tasty, tight, funky. I like! Good topic. :-)
  6. Hi, I'd be interested in the J-Retro if that's at all possible? Also I notice you've just taken hold of a warwick dolphin, I'm just about to sell mine! craig
  7. Hi What version is this? I'm looking for one for my Lakland Darryl Jones. Cheers craig
  8. You should DEFO check out Santa Fe and the Fat City Horns. They're primarily a club band in vegas and aren't strictly a 'latin' band but there's definitely a latin tinge to everything they play.

  9. Ooooh yeah!!! Phat! Cheers for posting this! c
  10. Yaaas! Another Lettuce convert! I saw them in New York in 2008 on a boat that did a tour up the hudson and round the statue of liberty, one of the best nights of my life! Get the live in tokyo album, i know it's like £20 odd quid but it's sooo worth it. cheers! craig
  11. [quote name='Higgie' post='705530' date='Jan 8 2010, 02:34 PM'][url="http://www.youtube.com/user/Higgie1423"]Here[/url] is a link to my YouTube channel. More vids coming soon [/quote] Nice man! I like the authenticity of I Wish, not many people get all the little inflections, great vintage tone too. keep it up!
  12. [quote name='maxrossell' post='699759' date='Jan 3 2010, 05:59 PM']Just wondering if anyone rates John Stockman from Karnivool. I'm just listening to their new record. Really amazing, thick, toneful and tuneful basslines. Hell, he even slaps on one tune and it doesn't sound sh*t (maybe because it's not a funky noodly look-at-me line, just a regular bassline with a sharper tone). Also he uses a six and he's the first sixer I've seen who hasn't bored me sh*tless with their fretw*nking.[/quote] Yeah i think he's great, a friend and I saw them a few months back in Glasgow and the kicked ass! Got chatting to John and the drummer outside the gig too, cool guys!
  13. Yeah good work mate, great to see someone getting into what their doing instead of the usual 'bedroom bass face'!
  14. Hey guys, Here are the full song videos from my Roots revisited gig, sorry if it seems like I'm hijacking this thread! Everyone in the band put in a lot of work and we're pleased with how our first gig turned out! Hope you enjoy them! Thanks for the encouragement so far. Craig
  15. Here is a link to my ebay auction. If someone from here wishes to buy it now I will waive the postage fee. Cheers! C [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200422743874&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_1646wt_1167"]BOSS GT10B[/url]

  17. Thanks very much Nathan!! We were lucky enough to put together a band of musicians who were all really into learning this kinda music. Like you say there aren't many musicians never mind bands who are doing this kind of material but it's definitely been worth the effort! craig
  18. Hey folks, here as promised is a little medley from my last gig. We go under the banner Roots Revisited and we put on a night where we covered live versions of Jill Scott and Erykah Badu tunes. It was a great learning experience in so many ways: putting together and rehearsing an 11 piece band, working out a whole heap of material by ear, trying to nail not only parts but the style as well etc etc... Anyways, here it is, let me know what you think: Our next night is gonna be a Prince night ;-)

  20. Thanks guys! It;s great to play in a band just for the music. Alphabet St is top of the list mate, there's a wicked live version from the O2 aftershow gig.
