Hi folks,

Here's a video of some clips from a recent gig at the Amersham Arms, New Cross, London.

It was a fun gig! :)

Cheers, Kev

This is my Nephews band (Hes the singer). Not bad at all for 17 year olds
Wasnt sure about the Gorilla theme but now quite like it and in fairness even if you don't like it you will remember it.

Song is really good and was recorded at Rich Bitch In Birmingham

I think this is great, regardless of them being 17. I love to see/hear youngsters being creative and to a good standard. I know there's loads more technology for them than when I was a kid, but this is good playing and a mature arrangement.

First attempt at a video, should have chosen something I didn't just start learning :)

Dangerous song to choose! Such a great groove to it, easy to ruin. You have done a good job here to keep the right feel, well done.

I would imagine Duck Dunn wasn't quite so strict with his fingering as you - I'm certainly way more lazy, but your way is better!

Thanks for the feedback. Although I am obviously biast, I do think they have something good going on and am trying to get this video played where ever possible. I taught him to play guitar too when he was 10.

Thanks, my guitarist friend chose it he's asked me to learn a few songs for him and that one was the most fun :)

Have to agree with that. Do they have a website?

Always been a fan of bridge pick-ups... couldn't stand too bassy tones and I needed to cut through with my Wal basses, Alembic, jazz-basses, etc...
My hand reached for that bridge position whenever I picked up a bass and felt comfortable there.
It was only because of nostalgia that I bought this '71 Precision here on bass-chat (Fischer Z, The Pretenders, Joe Jackson.. they all had these white Fender-ish basses) and I saw it as a present for my own birthday.
I hadn't expected how much it would change my way of playing... found myself playing with a different feel and was surprised that even with those flatwounds (which I associated with blues-players who absolutely wouldn't want to be heard, not even by dogs) the sound was very present and lively. It's like again a door has been opened by a great instrument and I feel a bit more like a "bass" player again without "sacrificing" anything..
Can't wait to see how it will affect my playing in different bands.. Recorded a bit of noodling in the key of G.

Check the recording section mate, I posted a thread with a link to soundcloud, a first go on the new Zulu Bass.

This was shot at the Jericho Tavern in Oxford a couple of weeks ago. Was going to put it in the "fretless in rock?" thread.
Last song in the set, sorry about the singing and the face....

Sounds like you're having fun! Would the next stop on the journey be rolling to tone control off...?

Wow had no idea that place still did live music. Used to play there when I was at school. £50 says they still turn their noses up at covers bands lol. Nice track well played though. Enjoyed it.

Victor Wooten's 'feature' part from Sex In A Pan by Bela Fleck & the Flecktones!

Shortest of the short clips I've ever got round to doing clocking in at 1min total playing time!

The style of playing isn't really my scene but it was a request that I give it a go so have a gander if you've got exactly 1minute to spare!
