I think I'd trade mine to play like Larry Kimpel does on here. Nice bass going on. Shame on me, id never heard of Larry Kimpel. Dennis Chambers laying down a heavy groove too.

I think Kimpel is more of a star in the gospel world than funk or jazz so it took this track to make me aware of him. Old soul boy that I am, I love the reference to Rufus & Chaka Khan's 'Stop on By' right near the end. Heaven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a mahoosive fan of 70s funk I thought I knew all the top players but I know next to nowt about the gospel scene. Of recent or contemporary bands playing funk, none come better than Down To The Bone. Check out this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTTB are fantastic and I love lncognito/Citrus Sun and Ronny Jordan too. This track is superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey D Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 This is one of my favourite baselines since I first hear the Wiz soundtrack after finding a vinyl of it not even knowing at the time the film existed. Great playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzburger Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I got a Play Station 1 for my 40th birthday. Bust-a-Groove is the only game I bought. I think I'm hearing a Fender Jazz on here - what do you think? Bass player is credited on Discogs I think, but I'm supposed to be working...

chris_b Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I can't remember if I put this up before. If I have twice can't hurt. The fabulous Nikki Glaspie on drums and her band The Nth Power, featuring 2 bass players on the first video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
