It's still cool songwriting if it's your thing but I preferred it when they were limited somewhat by technology with stuff like the Royal Scam and Aja, it did the tunes more justice IMO.[/quote] Dont get me wrong i love everything these guy did.... this is poss my favorite Fagan track....the guys got funk and soul in his veins..

[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylr2D4Pwn58"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylr2D4Pwn58[/url] those test tubes and the scales just it all out of here... there are no words for how good this track is....

For me this is super cool..the funkiest super tight music, bass, drums..loads of space in the tune, which is awsome....reminds me of a certain Mark King tune.. focussed jazz funk. wonderfully crafted music from the masters. i bet Pete does this justice..

[quote name='Bassassin' post='972720' date='Sep 30 2010, 02:17 PM']That's an awful lot you infer about me from my use of a common generalisation, about which you then say: I could have used any number of other descriptions - I described much of last weeks show as "sickly aural gloop", which would be ideal for Jay Kay & chums - but I don't particularly like to repeat myself. And by your own admission you know [i]exactly[/i] what I meant by "lift music". Good & bad is subjective & personal, but you won't need me to tell you the best musicians don't necessarily make the "best" music. J.[/quote] yeah of course i know it...i know lots of stupid terms...doesnt mean i like them...what the the world doesnt need is generalisation's... if i described Rock music as mindless thrashing and loathsome and insubstantial i would expect a comment or two... your post could have been put better thats all...

dont know but i like it

you may have to turn this down, bad Q..but she gotta jazz bass.. i erm....want to marry her.. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fc9nbYlAwUA"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fc9nbYlAwUA[/url]

im on a roll.. this Grover tune is frickin awsome...oh his bass is just like mine, tone and look.. i do love my Grover Washington.... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eduisPnDU-I"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eduisPnDU-I[/url] excuse the endless tune posting.. check out the awsome, and i mean awsome slap bass...the start is bass playing i love soo much

couldnt watch it pass the guitarist..too much... is JK loosin it...bring back the old days with the Z!!!! the music was much more organic and innocently funky..the first album will always be the best...

[quote name='Bassassin' post='972269' date='Sep 30 2010, 12:56 AM']I'll watch & cringe on Friday. Always found Jamiroquai, once you get past the good musicianship, to be purveyors of thoroughly loathsome & insubstantial lift music. I don't expect much has changed. Jon.[/quote]oh i do hate that term 'lift music'!!...its not open minded and a little sad, and lacking in a knowledge of music.....ive heard Led Zep in a lift aswell as Chicago to Steely Dan to Shakin Stevens and many others...i understand the stigma attached to it...and what your refering to but its such a blanket term for music like this....if you dont like it cool, but dont palm it off as insubstantial.. you dont like it im sure but some of the "lift music" you refer too are some of the best musicians in the world..

Ive been really getting into this woman lately..i think shes an amazing musician arranger. her new album is great, very soulful . i like her old stuff too.. fantastic voice....the band are good too....oh and she pretty hot!!

[quote name='markstuk' post='971398' date='Sep 29 2010, 08:58 AM']HI, I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of Jam sessions reasonably close to where I live.. This would cover an area bounded by coventry, south birmingham, evesham, banbury and daventry.. CHeers Mark[/quote]Hi Mark..i live in tewkesbury..its a bit further but they do open mic nights in cheltenham..

[quote name='urb' date='Sep 28 2010, 07:30 PM' post='971054'] I disagree - learn the masters note for note and then use what you've learned to feed into your own style of playing - it's how they did it - ask any top pro and they list the players they listened to and copied - if it's good enogh for them it's good enough for you and I [/quote Mike, who are the masters? thee are so many in every different genre.. although im very into a certain genre of music, i always thought it was good to seek out as many different styles of fingerstyle, slap, etc as you can.. This way of thinking doesnt just stop at slap imvho....i used to spend hours listening to Anita Baker and playing the bass to the way she would sing..or learn passages from John Coltrane and incorporate them... even slapping them... bass playing doesnt stop at electric bass

i wiil be watching that one..

[quote name='risingson' post='971036' date='Sep 28 2010, 07:15 PM']Why did you not think you'd ever say it? Flea's a very funky player, it's stands to reason. He's been listening and playing funk all his life.[/quote] its not the funk bit, its the Joshua Redman bit...hes not funk really, but can be very funky.....the more i hear from Flea the more i like...

Never thought i would write that, but here it is...man what a funkateer... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrCGMsNROSU&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrCGMsNROSU...feature=related[/url]
