Lord Sausage

Not sure if i've ever played one exactly!

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1351340926' post='1850290'] So dodgy you won't post the vid? [/quote] sorted

You wanted dodgy so here's dodgy. This is my band, Asedya, at The Night & Day Manchester. Our penultimate gig with our drummer, we are currently drummer-less. Filmed on someone's i-phone. We didn't realise we were being filmed. Little bit drunk, few mistakes, good energy. My band will prob kill me for sharing, and putting on youtube, but nevermind.

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1351167261' post='1848134'] His descriptions are becoming more and more entertaining and ridiculous with each listing. Was going to say long may it continue but problem is, some poor sap eats up the bullshit and shells out their hard earnt dosh. [/quote] I've just checked his seller ratings on ebay, looks like there are a lot of poor saps who love his work! One even says you won't find a better guitar restorer on ebay

I don't even know what mine are. I just know some are easier to play than others. I like that, keeps me on my toes. i read this thing once that said Richie Blackmore switched to Fender because he thought they were more difficult to play than what he was using. I liked that!

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1351244736' post='1849098'] He's better than I was after 7 lessons! [/quote] If that is all he had well that's fair play!

Hammond playing bass. http://youtu.be/ySJ8CZmq2V8 Clarkson can't play drums

If anyone is interested then go for it. I went to college with the drummer, he's class. A proper drummer! I'd be interested but i don't have my own transport currently. I know most of the set list too. Shame. I've not heard them but it would be worth joining just to play with Chris.

Been following this all month. Got my vote in. First one. Might enter myself next month!

I play Football, does that make me a Footballer?

It's sounds great!

Just read some more wiki turns out he got fired but then came back. so it probably is all murray. He is a great player!

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1350842945' post='1844153'] Those clips you posted both have Neil Murray playing on them - great player. Their first album "Trouble" is superb. I saw them on that tour & they were awesome. [/quote] I'm just confused as to what murray played on. I know he did slide it in and 1987. Wiki says he played on all the albums but on that gig at donnington 1983 its not him on bass.

[quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1350580052' post='1840879'] Hey Kerms, Welcome to BC. It may be new today, but just wait: it'll be a quarreling family before you know it. Evidence: What an awful piece of sh*te! And the same goes for the bass! Just kidding, of course! Nice bass, nice bloke. Enjoy your stay. Be family. best, bert [/quote]

Confession time! I have a penchant for pre 1987 Whitesnake, it may not be elegant or high brow but it's great pub rock n roll. plus any band that has contained Jon Lord , Ian Paice, Cozy Powell, Micky Moody has to be alright. Anyway, the bass playing is pretty tidy on them albums. Being an ignoramus though I'm not sure who the players are, how's that for underated. I know Neil Murray played at some point but it's the guys before him , i think. Here's a couple of examples. http://youtu.be/wAIxaGWXVBA http://youtu.be/K_gtdGDSnDA

[quote name='Doddy' timestamp='1350673534' post='1842247'] I think you need to get to a certain point before you should do this. I think it's better to read something,and if you get it wrong, stop and fix it. If there is keep messing up a specific rhythm(for example) that you mess up,if you don't fix it the chances are you will make that mistake again on another piece of music. It doesn't matter how many mistakes you make in the practice room,that's what it's for...the only time you have to get it right first time is on the bandstand. [/quote] Word!

aah bass is rubbish !

It's all about perceived quality for me. regardless of who's done it. If it's exciting, it turns me on. I go through weird phase tho. At one point 5 yrs ago,God gave Rock n Roll to you by Kiss was the most exciting thing i'd heard. I don't even like Kiss! I was smokin a lot of weed and drinking JD back then tho!

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1350413050' post='1838539'] It's a good track. However, I think it is a bit polite, lacking punch, not enough power. I normally expect music like this to have a glossy rich American type of production as I think that's the primary market. If I hear music like this I want it to energise me, and I'm afraid this doesn't do that for me. I'd want the vocal recording to be more layered and posh sounding as they feel a little distant from the band. The kit and bass are a little lost, especially in the verses. The choruses are nicely produced, but again, I want to hear much more punch and a some 'loudness'. From an arrangement POV, I think you want a few little sweets in there, just to jive things up a bit and stop the verses from sounding too similar. It's good though, very good, just lacking production polish. Sorry if this sounds a bit too honest mate. [/quote] [quote name='zero9' timestamp='1350414813' post='1838591'] I'm with silddx on this. Everything's there, just needs a bit more oomph . [/quote] Yeah i can dig it! Like i said it's my least favourite of our own but it was the drummer and singers favourite. I really struggled to get a line for it that i was happy with because of it. For my part i developed the bass lines as the verses progressed to make it more interesting, but we could have done a little more with the arrangement. Thansk for comments, I have no problem with honesty if its valid. You can check out the other tracks at the same soundcloud.

Our drummer quit 2 months ago and we're having a 'mare finding a new one. One guy joined 2 weeks ago last friday he said he was ok to rehearse this wednesday then he quit today.

[quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1350235353' post='1836112'] Nice track, I like it. I'm no pro but sounds to me like your bass is getting a little lost with/in the kick-drum in parts. If it were me I'd be wanting to cut through a bit more and the growl to be heard a bit more. But nice sound overall. I'd be happy coming away with a tune like that Edit: Listening again, it was maybe only the chorus and maybe just the 5 stringer? [/quote] [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1350238312' post='1836181'] Good evening, Lord Sausage (or may I call you Lord..?)... Allay your fears, nothing wrong with that; certainly not too 'speedy'. The bass is fine; no 'rushing' apparent. Whilst it's not the sort of number I'd be buying (my tastes are attrocious, so be flattered by that...), it's got a nice 'thick' production, and lays easy on the ears. Well performed (yes, even the double-kicking in the bridge...), well-fitting bass line(s), and enough guitars to not be able to distinguish any one in particular. Very 'pro'-sounding voice doubling (trebling..? more..?). Overall, if I was playing or mixing that, I would be happy to call it a day and turn the lights out, job done. Well done, Lord and band, and whomsoever tracked/mixed. Good work. Thanks for sharing. [/quote] Cheers, to be fair i always think the drummer plays a little to much. He's got that early bonham bass drum influence tho a la Good times Bad times. To be honest it's the least to my taste within our own tracks. I always get worried that we do a bit too much, too many gtrs, too many vocals. So perhaps that's my issue. Thanks a lot for comments. It's taken on board

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1350233219' post='1836074'] Sounds good to me, Saus'. Bassline certainly doesn't sound rushed. You're probably more conscious of it being played faster, but coming to it cold it sounds perfectly well suited to the track (and nicely high in the mix too!). The production itself sounds fine thru my cans. Nice wide mix, very crisp and clear. The drums are perhaps a little low and the vocal a wee bit too loud. But I'd need to hear it through monitors to be honest… I'd certainly be happy with it. But that's me [/quote] Thanks for your comment. You're probably right about me being concious of it being faster.
