  1. The format is still valid, it's the programming that sucks. The live scene is in rude health but Laters hit rate is tragically low. Used to love the 'here comes the weekend' vibe of the Tube
  2. The What We Must album is fantastic, particularly the opener All I Know is Tonight
  3. From a recent online review. Funny as I take pride in my self restraint '…today we hear the riches accrued. Rich baritone, cello driving melody as much as responding to it, sharp-as drums, but it’s the bass that really catches the ear tonight: positively Beatley in doing so much more than it needs to, songs so much the richer as a result'
  4. Always loved this one note beauty, insistent and chunky
  5. Not usually given to such inane comments, but oh my, what a stunning instrument, if this had one less string... hope it works out and you get your Roscoe
  6. Fantastic band, real visceral rocknroll energy. Love DFA 1979 too (haven't they reformed?)
  7. Nice one Clarky! Rock on daddio
  8. Love this, but all I have to offer is another fretless 5. FWIW Yamaha TRB5 mk1, the sought after original, in trans orange. Plus cash your way obv
  9. Mine was MIK I think
  10. [quote name='jakesbass' post='1167567' date='Mar 18 2011, 07:46 PM']Great time too, thats the nicest thing about his playing for me he sits right in it, and really lovely ideas. Very melodic. Great player. Very Metheny influenced[/quote] Yes, he solos without being obtrusive or unnecessarily in your face, just in the pocket and very much part of the whole
  11. this 'uns warming me up for the w/e [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/MusicianMarkOng#p/u/0/05DKrF66Q6o"]http://www.youtube.com/user/MusicianMarkOn...u/0/05DKrF66Q6o[/url]
  12. Superb Minnie, 'I am the black gold...' with Rotary Connection, absolutely timeless. She was receptionist at Chess records too apparently +1 to Les Fleurs as a great compilation, funky as f**k!
  13. Tight. funky. I'd love to be this bad
  14. Mark Ong gets props on here from time to time, but for anyone who hasn't seen his stuff, his melodic, fluid, lyrical style is just fantastic and he does the backing tracks too. He's posted a few new jams recently so thought I'd share [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/MusicianMarkOng#p/u/2/UrM4ZBAqc6I"]http://www.youtube.com/user/MusicianMarkOn...u/2/UrM4ZBAqc6I[/url]
  15. Have always played originals and never been paid, usually out of pocket. But hell yes, it's the best thing in the world. I'm thinking about a working band for my dotage though!
  16. Absolutely! Worth pointing out most of their catalogue is on Spotify too
  17. Couldn't let this thread pass without posting this
  18. That is lovely, and great value to boot!
  19. Hows about this from the incomparable 'Nard album
  20. [quote name='Bass Culture' post='1112008' date='Feb 2 2011, 08:49 AM']Ha ha - sadly my heart is set on an ACG. The Roscoe is so good that the ACG custom is really the only thing I'm prepared to move it on for. That said, PM, you're welcome to pop over anyway and put the Rosecoe through its paces even if it's not a precursor to a purchase - always happy to exchange pleasantries, drink tea and talk bass with a fellow obsessive![/quote] No point offering you a Sadowsky RV4 fretless in Oly white/Tort then? No? Bump for a beautiful bass!
  21. Sensational! Good luck with the sale
  22. [quote name='1oopus' post='1095568' date='Jan 19 2011, 08:02 PM']Fat, hypnotic hip hop groove. To me, so good it's scary [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PfuIm4Onhc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PfuIm4Onhc[/url][/quote] Thats the motherlode right there, the one
  23. Yes, yes. Big fan of the modern antiquarian, couldn't tell you about his bass playing mind
  24. Absolutely B5. The education keeps coming, love this thread!
