Col Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I have the DVD, it's great. Highly recommended for anyone interested in getting good with a pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conan Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Amazing. I don't think of him as a "pick player", just a great player. What a talent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M-N-Y Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 This guy is one of the all time greats in my book. I can't believe how funky his lines are. Truly awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hector Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Love what I've seen of him on youtube etc. - I already do a similar palm mute thing (usually picking with thumb and index/middle fingers, but starting to use the pick more), but this guy's on another level! Can anyone recommend me some classic records with Bobby on? Probably have a bunch without even realising it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M-N-Y Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I know he recorded some classic Sly and the Family Stone tracks when he was about 16. Have a listen to 'I get high on you' for a good example of the pick and muting technique you refer to. Cheers, Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Didnt he have a junkie brother called Vincent, who was shot in the bathroom ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
