bubinga5 Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Some just amazing groove bass playing on this classic Gil Scott Heron track, from the man on a P Bass. Meshell picks up a P bass at the end too.! http://youtu.be/xtPVoV7moMU Edited November 9, 2016 by bubinga5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krismpos Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Always loved this video. Especially at the end when it looks they're gonna trade some licks but in fact they accompany each other to a smooth fade out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Awesome playing from Pino. From 80s pop to the Who to Neosoul and straight out Hip Hop, it's difficult to think of another bass player who's crossed genres the way he has. Meshell's pretty special too.

mentalextra Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Fabulous Pino, as usual. Interesting, with what other musical genres is it acceptable to sit while playing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatboter Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I'm a huge Pino fan but I've lost track of him since he picked up that Precision... He had a distinctive voice on his fretless but on a fretted bass it's a different thing.... He's perhaps the "best"bass player on the planet imo but Pino will always be fretless to me.... I tried D'Angelo etc but it sounds like a totally different player to me but one I'm not that fond of...sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Pino and Manu Katche´ together; a rhythm section to die for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Drumming far too busy for me, Pino definitely more restrained as a result IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
