Love it. Love his slap playing. He never over plays. great record

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1462170330' post='3040688'] No, all of the Outrun music was written by a chap called Yu Suzuki who was part of the Sega house band (seriously) I reckon he was a Stevie fan though - the track from 8.30 has a Stevie pop/fusion quality, albeit trapped in a Spectrum...

[quote name='Chrismanbass' timestamp='1462207920' post='3041120'] actually Marcus uses his own engineer not the festivals as does Tony Momrelle they don't rehearse in the space before the gig (its not practical in reality they don't even get a soundcheck in a festival situation) to be honest the artists on stage have absolutely no control over the mix thats why they bring their own engineers with them people they trust to mix the gig well rather than the in house engineer who's seen a lot of different artists over a few days [/quote]Like i said WTF do i know I'm just a bass player

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Well to change the tempo and feel somewhat, this is just so very great. [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]i love the lyrics " we can stroll the mezzanine, buy some dirty magazines" only Prince could/would sing that. imo just a fantastic piece of music. amazing guitar playing.. his harmonies sung by just him are amazing. he was way out there, a genius..[/font][/color] listen to what he left us.

[quote name='Chrismanbass' timestamp='1462203461' post='3041061'] one of my best friends and colleagues at my venue doing FOH for Tony Momrelle at Cheltnam be interested to know your thoughts on the mix [/quote]I thought Julians bass could have been more out punchy, but I'm bias. but its such a huge tent. me and my sister were sat off to there right. trying to pin down certain acoustics in that size a venue, is like trying to find a hamster in woodnorton. apart from that, the engineers are so used to mixing for great artists. Last year was Marcus Miller. he wouldn't put up with a bad mix imo. obviously rehearsals in that space, he would have picked up on any bad sounds. WTF do i know about room acoustics. not a lot. but my ears tell me there is too much air for the noise to flow around.

Its the first time i have. Ive got to be honest I'm a frustrated bass player, Partly because of where i live. The band i just turned down plays covers of Oasis etc, it couldn't be further from what i like to play. What is up with this country.? No cosmopolitan ways, in boring country towns.?!!! I think its just the inherent music culture in small gloucestershire towns. Me and the wife getting the f*** out of here.

Good lord this is funky. Maceo Parker on sax [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fKMQXsaMBg[/media]

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1461508028' post='3035233'] None of his albums - I've found a lot of his songs are a bit meh (and I say that as a Prince fan). His live jams are what do it for me so I've only got DVDs. Live at the Aladdin is the best, shortly followed by Y2K (let down by the cringeworthy sermon half way through). Sign of the Times DVD is (ironically) a sign of it's time - its a bit self conscious and doesn't show Prince's band leading talents to the same degree as the other two. [/quote]Live at Alladdin is just quite something.

[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1462193227' post='3040931'] If you look on Youtube there are quite a few videos of him playing 'normally'. There's a nice one here with the WDR big band. I'm not a Stevie Wonder fan, but this is quite a cool arrangement. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdGszmpQMd8[/media] [/quote]Now thats what i like. that cements to me what a great musician he is. I love Falsetto but i would like to hear( which I'm getting snippets of), him sing lower in the range. but yep. he's great. what an accomplished jazz pianist he is.

Went to see the Brand New Heavies, Rita Satch and Tony Momrelle. Easily by a mile the best i saw was Tony Momrelle. Its possibly one of the best people/bands I've ever seen live. Quite astounding. the legend Julian Crampton was on bass. Tony Remy on guitar. I was sat with my sister in the Big Top and our mouths were agape when he sang on his own. sorry i couldn't find any footage of last night. Same band though. Anyone notice Paul Turner in the front at 2.12 he he. Ive to to say Julian Crampton is such a fantastic bass player. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIljJ-JTWkQ[/media]

Well i can't argue with that. His musical ability isn't in doubt, i just don't like the way he's put the music together. But if Micheal League likes him who am i to talk sh*t.

Hes excellent, but i can't help thinking he's not really thinking about the song, but more of his technical ability as a showcase.. He ruined PYT imo. Its just empty.

Yep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4oCbEFWb10

so glad to see you back brother. xx

[quote name='AustinArto' timestamp='1462036826' post='3039869'] Was this tune one of the radio options on Outrun? [/quote]WTF.?

[quote name='solo4652' timestamp='1462007405' post='3039483'] Thank you! Is Stevie playing that bassline on a synth? [/quote]yes it is.

The greatest UK Hip Hop. its just so very very good.…you gotta dig that drumming and her rapping….. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiuZ4t1Leao[/media]

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1461969127' post='3039312'] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEDNa-jS5fs[/media] That is one unstoppable groove! [/quote]as soon as i heard this i knew it was gonna be a good groove. Thanks brother..

i tell you what although Bev went a bit commercial, she is a bad ass funk gospel singer. she can keep up with Aretha Franklin all day long. Easily one of the best soul singers the UK has. she's f***ing epic

if you delete the S out of your post/link you will get the vid. for anyone who's interested.

You can look up your self how many bands he's played for. This is just fabulous music and that is all i care about. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcflT1yb1To
