His muting technique was the stand for me. I actually have his dvd. He was a very humble guy. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Pino is in my book an icon, he’s not widely known beyond musician circles. I would assume by his demeanour and lack of media, that is the way he likes it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn’t based on the current era where it’s given out for trash. His 53 now so his not in this era. How Taylor swift has 14 is beyond me. Rather makes me want to Vomit. Anyhow questlove Is an important figure in African American and also American music. He was or still is in the iconic band Roots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes roots did have been the house band for that show. I forgot. I agree regarding pino. It’s very much like abraham laboriel or James jamerson. Iconic figures in the musical circle but to the wider audience, not really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll check him out. Just read that he had some involvement with the film Bamboozled which means my ears have crossed paths with his work already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of videos of Amir Questlove Thompson to choose from on YT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
