funkypenguin Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 [quote name='Doddy' post='1029416' date='Nov 19 2010, 02:50 PM']I think 'Chasing Shadows' is a really good album,and I'm not knocking Tony Gray,he's a great player. I can just sing more of Janeks tunes. Hadrien however,is a frighteningly good player,but I find his album so hard to listen to. It's just a flurry of chops,with no real melodic content.[/quote] Its cool, i get what you're saying +1 there, i think Hadriens bass day '08 slot (the one on youtube) is an excellent case in point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faithless Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Well, I can't agree by any means that Grey's 'sense of melody' is better than Janeks - it's just different. Janek has both huge knowledge and sense of melody as he studied piano for a long time, and you can hear it in his playing/compositions. Now, compositions - Grey can make more complex compositions but if its complex it doesn't have to mean its better. Well at least it doesn't make me to listen to the man at all.. All in all, if you compare the three (and they're all too different to compare, I suppose..), then, I think, that Janek is no doubt most melodic player (I was gonna suggest the same thing Doddy said - try singing Hadriens, Tonys and janek's lines and you'll get it..), while Hadrien is most technical, and Tony, hmmm.. compositions maybe?

Having transcribed tunes by both players, I dont find that Tony Greys lines are any harder to remember or sing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibob Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I was gonna post this as one of the vids of his that I really liked: Did a quick search and realised its the Four Brothers tune that was spoken about earlier......I thought it was just an improvised groove! Great though Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmanfunk Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 All of Janek's solo material has been posted up on Bandcamp, by Janek of course. Definitely worth a listen.
