I would safely say The Average White are probably in my top 5 favourite bands of all time. They have a fantastic mix of soul and funk for my personal taste..

Utterly amazing record..!!!

I bought one of these brand new from Guitar Guitar I think back in 2012 for £1199. The thinnest most comfortable neck on any Jazz bass ever. It sounded great with the stock bridge.

This bass is uber rare and only available in Japan back then. I WOULD LOVE THIS BASS. https://www.fenderfever.com/bass/fender-jb-19992002---sunburst

The Greatest Prince album ive ever listened to was a double album.Its The Hits B sides, amazing a record or all of the records on it were B sides.

There are just sooooooooooooooo many gems.

You cant be serious. Love Sexy,, Diamonds and Pearls, The Gold Experience were great albums. and his live music was just.... He can be hit and miss but so are our ears as listeners. The guy didnt have to have chart toppers to be probably the best musician of all time. Putting lyrics like "We can stroll the mezzanine, buy some dirty magazines" then talk about eating ice cream. I just think thats so clever. A guy that played 27 instruments should have every musician in the worlds respect. Im never usually a fanboy of anyone but when it comes to Prince. Well its Prince.

IMO one of the greatest Acid Jazz albums ever recorded.

Julian Crampton on bass on this absolute cracker.

Musically I mean... I remember when this first came out in 87.... It was played on Radio 1 and various other stations endlessly.. I just cant imagine, even how epic this record is it would be played on mainstream radio stations today. Aids, Heroin, Crack, etc etc.. I just haven't heard a record this profound played on a mainstream music station in a long long time.... Sign O The Times.? Or maybe main stream music isn't as good as this anymore.

No its a normal one

NooooooooOOoo.. Jazz basses are so cool looking.. but you might not find my wife attractive. Thats how much this thread means.

BC Rich, Gibson SG, Warwick Buzzard, Warwick Dolphin, T Bird, but what the fxxk do I know. It doesnt really matter though does it. Marcus Miller could make the same music on any of these basses and it would still sound epic.

I watched the SBL Podcast with him and he comes across as very humble polite man. What a monster player he is. Too busy.? Maybe depends on your perspective but this guy knows his bass playing inside and out. I personally love hearing what these Gospel cats can do. Its like watching a Lamborghini of the bass world. Better to have it and not use than not have it in the vocabulary.

Brian Bromberg is a Beast and I didnt know it.. And because I dont much care for the Beatles ive grown to appreciate Mr Mcartneys bass playing. Ok this isn't the Beatles but what a bass line. Its so musical and totally propels the record. There is a live version when he plays this line and sings. Fantastic record also.

Bobby Lyle on fire.
