Beer of the Bass Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 I like the album version better. I reckon this line-up were best on the numbers where they used synth bass. Is it sacrelige to say that on a bass forum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burno70 Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 WOw - haven't listened to Beefheart for years - I'll have to dig out Trout Mask Replica and give it a spin! Thanks for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibob Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Bloody genius!! Try playing stuff like this, it's rediculously hard, as all the parts are written and set in stone!! It goes against everything we consider to be harmonious! I love Trout Mask Replica!! Little trivia for those who didn't know, Beefheart wrote out every instruments part for the album on Piano....every instrument, including drums. He can't play piano. Then he told the guys to learn what he'd written (having had his guitarist notate it). Makes for bizarre parts! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And during rehearsals for TMR he kept the band virtual prisoners in a house in the boondocks for months on end and made them all wear masks and act in character while recording the album... ...still, better than the 9 to 5, eh?

Gust0o Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Love the tone on that The Fall video - awesome stuff, just like I always imagine I sound!
