lowdown

I recently came back from the states, and i had a few dollars floating around in my pocket. So what do i spend it on? A '57 Precision ? [url="http://www.gbase.com/gear/fender-precision-bass-1957-see-through-blonde"]http://www.gbase.com/gear/fender-precision-bass-1957-see-through-blonde[/url] Or a '57 Chevy 2 door post ?

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1349610162' post='1828190'] Mind you The Beatles, Led Zep, Jaco, Jamerson etc ain't that current but it doesn't stop people talking about it! [/quote] True......... But then again you would have to dig most of them up for them to be on the '"live" scene. Garry

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1349609427' post='1828175'] I loved em. I really liked how they changed and progressed album to album, getting better each time. It's a pisser that they split. I realise it ain't current and they split up time ago, but it still souns fresh. [/quote] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]No not very current, but saying that, Roisin Murphy is still very active on the live club scene, and very well liked - Plenty up there on Youtube.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Garry[/font][/color]

I thought they were great, they kinda helped move House Music on a bit at that time. Roisin Murphy has quite a few solo tracks out there. Garry

[quote name='StageAhead' timestamp='1349509403' post='1827120'] It's in german but you can still benefit from the transcriptions i made.

[quote name='OzMike' timestamp='1349449681' post='1826523'] I don't really get the negative comments about fusion. [/quote] I understand negative comments, that's just down to opinions really. But to turn up to a thread to listen to music you hate ? and talk about dogging? Priceless. Garry

If you mean this - Yep it's great. [url="http://soundcloud.com/billyhollywoodlee/eleanor-rigby-billy-lee"]http://soundcloud.com/billyhollywoodlee/eleanor-rigby-billy-lee[/url] Garry

It's called comping. Good players know how to comp. Bad keyboard players think it's a freebie ticket for a concert. Garry

Congrats on the new birth. To me it sounds like "The" Band has a few newborns amongst it's ranks. Garry

I thought it was a scene from "Grease"........ Garry

Yep, well done Skol. Garry

[quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1349027356' post='1820852'] there isn't enough time left to be listening to this. [/quote] Yet you keep coming back... Only kidding. Rough and ready funk - but still hits the spot for me, lots of energy. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUHUNbzhPQI[/media] Lenny White with a very young Marcus Miller.

MLD is superb.... Another one for checking out Lee [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Ritenour and 'Rhythm Sessions', great playing all round.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Great stuff.[/font][/color] G[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]arry[/font][/color]

Add another to the club. Joplin fan here, and yes very cool Bass playing. Garry

No Bass today what so ever, But working out/transcribing some nice vocal chord voicing's with my son. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBKi4pcvEGY&feature=share"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBKi4pcvEGY&feature=share[/url] Garry

[quote name='funkypenguin' timestamp='1348779693' post='1818234'] My transcription of XYZ is up in theory and technique somewhere if anyone is interested in having a crack at it [/quote] Yep, i grabbed that a while back - and a very fine transcription it is, of a very fine tune. Garry

Good stuff dude! Nice playing all round. Garry

For any of you guys/girls who use Midi for composing, you might find this site very helpful. Lots of great tips and geek gear talk. [url="http://www.vi-control.net/forum/portal.php"]http://www.vi-control.net/forum/portal.php[/url] Garry

[quote name='Chris2112' timestamp='1348696818' post='1817206'] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jb8k53ZzJbc[/media] [/quote] Great Album all round [agree about the Synth sounds and being better] I remember buying it for about £20.00 or so around the mid 90's, now you can download from iTunes for about $10.00 Garry

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1348658093' post='1816479'] Hmm, can't see that here [/quote] Ok - Now have my glasses on. He has been given his P45 then. Have some time so will have a good listen and cast my vote. Garry

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1348656851' post='1816462'] I meant good luck with voting for RedStriper [/quote] Lol....I see what you mean. There is a tacet/bar for nothing where his name and link should have been. Garry

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1348656310' post='1816452'] Good luck with that Garry [/quote] Thanks for that - Cue sheets to be detailed in October, so will know more then about broadcast times etc. Still laughing about Redstriper and his story, very funny and has made my day. Garry

[quote name='redstriper' timestamp='1348600537' post='1815874'] Sorry, sorry, sorry... I've done a bad thing - first of all I'm Tacsi and secondly, I cheated My band is called Tacsi and I linked to a song we wrote last year, it wasn't written this month. I didn't read the OP properly, (I was very drunk at the time) and the picture made me think of this song so I made the link and promptly forgot all about it - until now. Anyway thanks to whoever voted for the song, but you should transfer your vote and I should be scorned as unworthy . [/quote] It's amazing what people will do for their 15 minutes.............. Funny story, I might vote for you because you gave me a giggle. Garry

[quote name='hollywoodrox' timestamp='1348517561' post='1814744'] minor 5th for diminished metal type sounds [/quote] Is that a rusty 5th? Ears and taste [along with theory,or some] is the name of the game. Practise singing along with Basslines, or any instrument lines for that matter, and start to take in intervals and chord sounds. Melodic or lyrical Instinct will eventually kick in telling you what's musical and what's just your fingers speaking in the name of showing off. Garry

Yep, that's a great watch and very interesting to listen to. Maestro Bernstein looks like something out of a Mafioso film. Garry
