Yes, it does look close, although the reason I doubted it was, on the concert video above he was wearing glasses.

Emilio Castillo isn't a Trumpet player, he's a Sax player. I'm not sure why I even posted that - I was just generally copying and pasting! I've actually met him after a TOP gig back in the 90's, when he was clearly holding a Tenor in his hands. Regarding the Bari player, although plenty on that thread are saying it is Doc Krupa, I think it might be Jim Horn, but who knows? I've tried hunting down the musicians on that concert, but all the searches throw up are the Rhythm section names and the backing singers names. A shame that the blowers aren't listed at all.

"Steve Doc Kupka (sax) Emilio Castillo (trumpet). Both from Tower of Power. George Bohannon (trombone)"

I'm not sure if it has been posted before, if so, always worth another thread. 'Martha Reeves live in concert'. It's not very long (22 minutes) and there are a few top players by the looks of it. Some posters have named the band. Jamerson, Joe Sample (Keys), Wah Wah Watson & Dennis Coffey (Gtrs), Jim Keltner (Drums), Ollie E. Brown (percussion), Steve Doc Kupka (sax) Emilio Castillo (trumpet) Both from Tower of Power. George Bohannon (trombone) Maxine Willard, Maxine Waters, and Clydie King on back up vox. And, of course, Martha on top form!!

I stumbled on this 'Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen' solo Double Bass concert earlier. It's quite astonishing really (IMO, of course). The performance tracks are laid out in chapters. All in all, about 75 minutes long:

Contact beyerdynamic, I believe they will supply you with a Beta version of the App that goes up to 11.

I'm just about to try the App out... I did actually post this up in the Beyerdynamic thread yesterday, but that thread is more about the DT770 pro headphones.

I use DT770 pro's and have just noticed this freebie App that I'm going to investigate in the next few days. I thought it might also be of interest, or curiosity to other Beyerdynamic users: beyerdynamic HEADPHONE LAB

Just when I thought I had every UAD freebie that's been available, a new one appears... Looks like it's free until Feb 28th: Buy UAD 610 Pre-Amp Collection | Effects Bundles | Plugin Boutique

One More Once - Michel Camilo (Anthony Jackson).

I wonder if Mick Mason and Jon Letts are related..?

Very nice, the Bass really sings out. A nice lyrical piece as well.

I was just about to post something similar... That Bass you have looks very interesting. Not one for the masses, but certainly one I would consider a 'players' instrument. I should imagine that it plays and sounds great! 👍

CB has put together a very nice arrangement of a Beatles tune, along with top playing as usual:

Strawberry Letter 23 - Brothers Johnson (Shuggie Otis)

Three very good friends of mine have all toured on Keyboards with Chris at various times. They had nothing but great things to say about him and often spoke fondly about him as a musician and a human being. R.I.P.

"19" - Paul Hardcastle

I agree with all you say. She wasn't transcribing the Bass part, she was jamming (her take) over the chord changes, which aren't difficult. In fact, anyone with decent relevant pitch would pick up those changes quite quickly, on the fly. That's what good, experienced musicians with a strong ear do. I will add, I think she is a very good musician all round.

Alone Again (Naturally) - Gilbert O'Sullivan

Fly Robin Fly - Silver Convention

Fellow Bass players...Clap your hands, tap your feet, and sing along with all the family.
