Guest McBass Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Ampeg and probably Rottensounds, still the Marcus tone.... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eJnt8xr_Zs[/media] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatboter Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Apart from the sound, it strikes me again how the drummer in this video just keeps playing that tight groove during the slap-solo.. I get so tired of all these drummers who like to build up the groove and give you that tiny hi-hat as soon as the bass-solo starts.. They think they are giving you a present but I'm always thinking "give me something solid I can play upon". Everyone in the band gets this tight foundation when they solo except for the bass-player... (sorry for the off-topic) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatboter Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Well, I don't like to play solo's either (I've got nothing to say) but sometimes you're in that situation that you're announced to the audience without expecting it, everybody turns around and the audience starts to cheer... Not much you can do if you don't want to spoil the mood so you just go ahead with it... (often with a disappointing result imo :-)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have this on VHS as well, although I think you can get it on DVD now (Japan release) [url="http://musicvideosanddvd.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/david-sanborn-love-happiness-2006.html"]http://musicvideosanddvd.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/david-sanborn-love-happiness-2006.html[/url] If you are a Marcus fan, a concert worth watching from his early years, where it is just raw grooving away, and not spending half the night soloing.
