FlatEric Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I watched it, as well. What a tone - What feeling! Always imagine Pino and a Precision - playing a Music Man on the clip. Sounded Luvverly!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witterth Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 The Fretless MM stingray is what he was known for at the time, and he used to "slap it up" a bit too! wouldn't touch a Precision back then. How times change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] +1 '79 Fretless SR plus Boss OC-2 plus an obliging sound engineer on Paul Young's No Parlez album were the 3 ducks which lined up to bring Pino charging into to our lives in the first place. For many of us, it's more of a case of "This is all too confusing - what's Pino doing with a fretted precision?". CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) Thanks for posting this as I would not have known about it. What a legend Pino is and the only player I know who can make a 'Ray look small I saw the man on the No Parlez tour.

cloudburst Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Wasn't it great - and oh so surprising to see that the the raison d'etre of the feature was about how Pino and the bassline MADE the song. How strange to see people 'get it' on a mainstream telly programme. CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Your average non-muso doesnt know what bass is, let alone being able to name a featured bass ... and there's no earthly reason why they should know. Similarly there's many things I couldn't do - I couldn't name or recognise most of the people I hear referred to as celebrities. EDIT: Actually, I don't even recognise many of the bassists or bands referred to on Basschat.

flyfisher Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 25:15 - Pino explaining that he felt embarrassed because he felt it was a bit out of tune, too forward in the mix and "all musician's think they're rubbish". Got to love the very British understatement. Legend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pietruszka Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 "I can't really read music so I would've had it!" Thats quite encouraging! I've only heard odds and ends of his playing, the stuff he did with Seal was great. Excellent player. Nothing like a bit of british modesty!
