Flanker Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I am really enjoying the new Corinne Bailey Rae album. After seeing her on Jools last week I downloaded it. At the moment I am well into 'Paris Nights New York Mornings' - I just love the way the bass sounds and it's a real fun line to play IMO. Does anyone know who the bassplayer is? I think he was playing an Ibanez bass? Looked nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flanker Posted May 30, 2010 Author Share Posted May 30, 2010 Well I like it !!!!! I downloaded it online so can't find the bassist's name on the album cover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Shame when an artist of her calibre doesn't have band credits on her website - I agree, lovely track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it was on the early demos. He her producer and is mainly a guitarist but can always laydown a solid groove. He's my uncles best mate so i can get the name of the bassist playing with here live & find out who recorded the studio work but may take a couple of days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flanker Posted May 30, 2010 Author Share Posted May 30, 2010 Thanks very much, it's not urgent I just thought he had a nice tone and wanted to check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 (edited) It's Kenny Higgins playing on the album and it's him in the touring band as well. Check him out on Youtube..... S'funny as from all the tracks on the album, that's the one we do with Idle Hands as well! Edited May 30, 2010 by yorks5stringer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flanker Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 [quote]Shame when an artist of her calibre doesn't have band credits on her website[/quote] In her defence I downloaded the digital booklet for her original album and the band are credited on there. In fact she calls Kenny Higgins 'the best bass player on earth....' It's been years since I played someone's records 'to death' but I am loving these albums - I really would like to play this sort of stuff in a band - finding a singer might be tricky! Wife says.......'you're infatuated with that Corinne Bailey Rae' - she's getting jealous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
