Seriously incredible playing. If you’ve not seen him, worth checking out.

 

As well as the feel and the note choose it’s the clarity of it all. This is a solo gig where he’s paid to basically bust out all the tricks but it a band he’s much more restrained.

 

I couldn’t listen to an album of it, and it’s not really something I’d want to do, but I’m glad he’s out there doing it - and with a huge smile and sense of humour.

Like you @Burns-bass, am album would be too much, but that clip brought a smile to my face 👍

I’d definitely recommend checking out his album Ventura from a couple of years ago. Some great tunes and obviously some incredible playing too.

The stamina required to play like this over a set is incredible. Both physical and mental! The Cory Wong gigs weren’t short either.

I haven't enough grey cells to remember an arrangement like that!!

 

Great playing and very melodic, which makes a change from the usual technical slap fest.

Agreed. Some of it is prog-rock-esque.

 

I just love his huge smile and sense of fun.

Same here. It’s very infectious.

Absolutely this! 😁

The drummer's no slouch, either.

+1 to this. It's a good album, very musical, and not just a bass assault on the ears, there is fast playing and obviously the bass is the star instrument, but it's done well IMO.

That fill at 1:34 is very reminiscent of the marimba-esque instrument at the beginning of Rikki Don’t Lose that Number. (nerd alert)
