wombatboter Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I saw this somewhere else on the internet and it floored me.. I couldn't sit still while watching it. There are a lot of people walking around pretending to be funky and drooling on "on the 1" clichés etc.. but this is the real stuff. This is just smoking and everything is just how it should be : the moves, the groove, the sound, the funny but competent backings, the cowbell (we need more cowbell !) and a great bass-player (who says you need an old Precision with flatwounds ?). Check that bass fill around 5'18"..

4 Strings Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Yep, great stuff, thanks. Be great to play in a band like that, although I suspect rehearsals with a band leader to that standard would be demanding. Aria SB1000. I had one, well, the cheaper 600 version, looked amazing back then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spongebob Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Love MG - anyone interested should check the book 'Divided Soul' - the definitive MG bio. Really tragic story - but an utterly engaging portrait of a true genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4 Strings Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 He was. Deeply studied and detailed vocal parts on his part but with amazing feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_5 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Brilliant stuff. Created the template for practically every 'soul' artist since. Awesome voice too (not too shabby on the drums either...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
