Jocelyn Brown - Somebody Else's Guy (Bass Cover) 

The wealth of her groove is endless. Another demonstration of the power of the bass in a real artist's hands.

How many Musicman basses has this girl sold....?

Ok Julia... I was around when this jam originally dropped. You weren't born yet. You found this song and then elevated it. Thank you. There is hope...

Julia, you are such an incredible musician. It makes my family and me so happy to listen to you playing. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.

You are by far my favorite bassist on RU-vid. Wow! Your touch, your tone, your execution, your timing, are all perfect. Somehow you manage to make the bass the most melodic and interesting part of every arrangement you write. Any tips on how you managed to get so good at the instrument. Us normies want to learn your ways 😅 Anyway, thank you for posting again. Hope your life is rocking. Cheers and aloha!

You gotta love her “funk face”.😖 Keep slappin’ Julia!👍🏻

Please just make her the next Carol Kaye and have her be the studio bassist in every session everywhere. There's not a cover I have heard that she doesn't make instantly better.

What I love about her is she not just playing it, she's enjoying it just like we did back in the day. You go girl!

So smooth, Julia! You are beyond talented. Thank you for sharing! 🎉❤ 🎸

Can someone get Marcus Miller on the line and share this with him?

Couldn't get the audio to work on my phone so I watched you play in silence. Made me smile to watch you feel the groove. I'll listen when I get to my computer.

That song totally reborn for me. WOW. that was terrific I was sitting here smiling like a loon. 😁

Julia jams to the music while PLAYING the same way we jam to it while LISTENING! I love that.

this is absolutely the best bass cover i ever heard just deep in the pocket

Ridiculously good. What else should we expect? 😉

Just wonderful, have you played Run for cover bt David Sanborn and Marcus Miller, Julia? Keep up the great work.

Here are the votes from the Belgian jury. Poland 12 points.

OUTSTANDING cover of the immortal 1984 Jocelyn Brown classic I danced at the disco in my twenties...the groove and punch you deliver with those bass parts is a clear demonstration of the saying "the sound lies in the hands". You have my never ending admiration.

You make a drummer want to learn bass. Keep it up, incredible.

It's like the Midas touch, but everything she touches gets funkier

I hadn't listen to that song in ages and actually listened to it yesterday and there you go dropping an amazing cover as usual. Crazy!

I've heard that song a million times and never knew the bass line was so involved!

Watching this video gave me a better appreciation of the original bass performance. Julia’s version is enjoyable as always and sounds beautifully clean, but back in the day those licks must have been scary.

Wow! At it again and never disappointed. But why did it take till 2:29? That face you made and that thing you did, I knew then you were having fun! Keep doing what you do, can't wait for the next one!

Thank you Julia, at aged 50 you’ve inspired me to pick up the bass, you are completely amazing, please don’t stop making videos !!

Thank you for this energy and your pleasure. I will register on patreon in order to study your tabs 😉😉😉👍

After mastering the instrument, Julia has also mastered the bass faces, congrats ! (My favorite one is at 2:48 😍)

Serotonin whenever Julia posts

She never disappoints 🤌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Could you share how do you mix your bass sound please ? It so goood !!

I just saw that JULIAPLAYSGROOVE released a video and I'm like, I CAN NOT and WILL NOT miss it!!! GREAT, GREAT JOB - AGAIN!!!

Brilliant Bassline

Holy smokes, this was Epic. Love your take on one of my favourite tunes from back in the days. Cheers from Sweden! 🇸🇪

thanks 4 the good vibes and the blast from the past!

I've been playing bass for 42 years learning from JJBurnel, Flea and Tim Commerford. Now I'm learning from you. I'm smiling and if they see this, I'm sure they're smiling too. Keep doing this and I hope rich rewards will follow.

Yes, she's great. But can we all please take a moment to feel sorry for that underused shelf. It looks so lonely :-D

You inspire me to continue playing bass while also reminding me that I'll never be that good

I´m 52 now and I´ve tears in my eyes because it´s so good to see young talented people who love and feel the music like we did (and still do). FUNK & SOUL forever 🤩

Your channel made me appreciate even more the bassline on every song I listen to fr

Oh funk yeah! This was an instant like, my all time favourite bassline song, covered by my all time favourite RU-vid cover bass player ❤

1:54 I don't understand what's happened here, i was not ready for this! Awesome cover again, and i love your music taste! Merci !

A master class in groove. Oh my!

I love the way you making your videos. No effects, just a simple bass plug in a computer et voilàà. You and your talent, you really need nothing else to be a pro class musicien

I have been waiting for such a funky tune since the end of last year. Thank you for covering! Excellent work as usual!

Another fave of mine, Cheryl Lynn - Got To Be Real. love you to bass cover this.

Julia another beautiful job. You make music on top of music.

How is she not a known session player? Her playing is so tight.

This is so good damn you are AWESOME❤❤💃💃💃

She is absolutely "Killing-It" - phenomenal job. oNe LovE from NYC

Nooooooooooo...not Somebody else's Guy. Noooooooo. Not only i got the 6-minute version on vinyl, but this is one of my favorite records coming up as a kid. Little mama, Major salute. I hope Jocelyn Brown likes this video. Also, since you did this cover, look up Jean Burton-Bad Habit. Same kind of vibe, but funky at the same time.

Layers upon layer here- still noticing things you did in this one after multiple viewings. You really are the lyric poet of the bass guitar.

You're always bringing it Ms. Julia! Absolutely love your sense of groove!!! Keep on, keeping on.

Never felt disappointed by Julia 🔥❤️

Did you see that?? I just set the all time fastest hit of the subscribe button.

The grooviest bassist is backkk 🔥🔥

Outstanding job young lady amazing!!!

You make me wanna learn bass! That groove makes me envious

I was on my phone for almost the entire first minute, then at 0:54 I automatically made a stanky face, holy shit!! 😂😂 Funky as hell!!!

That one was EXTRA funky!

Gotta give credit to this girl,,, Everything she does,,,she's just on point! Excellent song selection as well can't wait to see her on the big stage with her own band one day soon! Keep that groove going! The world needs more people like her,,,, thank you for keeping the music alive🙌🏻

Oh just stoooop it Julia 😅, you're just playing right up lol, i just cant get how over how amazing your journey has been. 🎸❤

Guaranteed to put a smile on your face every time 💯💯💯

Eu sou o comentário em português que você procura!

What's so crazy is every song she has covered that I was familiar with, Never too much, Forget me nots and now this, I have come away liking the song more than when I first heard it. I am now a subscriber just so I can see what she does next. Well done, Julia, well done!

It's been awhile since I have seen you play. It looks and sounds as if you have gotten better.👍🏽👍🏼 It is always a joy to see, hear you play.

Julia does it again....Play that bass girl...Jocelyn is diggin this for sure.. This was a club and radio fav from the 80's....RIP Jocelyn Brown

Awsome, my favourite bass videos.

She's sooo good that she makes you like songs you didn't even know you liked!!! It's crazy how I can hear a song countless times and never really hear it until JULIA puts her spin on it.

Gives me Wayman Tisdale vibes!! Love this! Her stank faces are legit!! 😮😮😮

Wait for it... And there it is , crescendo Bam! Always a pleasure to watch you ply your craft and enjoy your musicality. Kudos! Job well done. The hair on my arm stood up as you played the intro' ❤️❤️🙏👍

Uuuuhhhhh what a amazing playstuff! ✌️👍👍👍👍 You make me dance right away and you are making the track of Jocelyn more beautiful than original! Thanks for the tune 🎶 you're majesty of bass! ❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙋🏼‍♂️

JULIA, u does really a wonderfull job here, U R AWESOME, thx for your existence

All respect for your choise of bass and tone for each song. And your wonderful timing and feel of cause! Thanks!

Haven't heard this song since I was a kid. Your version of this is absolutely stunning, Julia! I'm speechless. Thank You for all that you do.

Yes!!! Have been waiting for this!!

That shortscale bass sounds so different from your other basses. I never realized how in a skilled musician there would be a noticeable difference.

GREAT MUSIC CHOICE AND PERFORMANCE

Young lady I could watch you play the bass all day.....😁👍🏼🙏💯

Soooo groovy!!! My goodness! I put this on repeat!! Please Please do Quincy Jones' Ai No Corida!!! Who's with me?? Like this so Julia will see it? 🙂

I love when she does these old funk soul songs. Personally I think this girl will smoke any bass player out now.

Do a cover of Maxwell - Sumthin' Sumthin' please? Your bass playing is so smooth 🥺

wow!!!!! never expected this one played by you Julia!! This is one of my favourite songs from when iwas young, brings so many memories!!! I am sure you will make it justice as always (haven´t even started the video yet), here we go!!

Unbelievably smooth slap bass. Learning this song atm and was just watching her right hand for the whole video. The transitions from fingerstyle to slap was effortless and all the extra fills just thrown in were Unbelievable. Great cover!

One of the best bassists of our time, relish it.

Juna Serita, Mohini Dey and Juliaplaysgroove👌👌👌

Bardzo dobre!Bravi....!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I absolutely LOVE your skills! I can't think of enough words to describe how much your playing moves me! In musician's terms: Always "tight and in the pocket!" I'm a DJ/Producer that has always wanted to learn how to play bass! I guess at age 55, it's never too late to start, but your video is motivational & inspirational! Great Work!

Que flow tan monstruoso tienes! 👏🏼👏🏼

Blown away by this! Get some maxwell going!

Amazing playing as always! And those funk faces 😁

Now THAT'S how you're supposed to play this song! Her groove was spot on! Nailed it!!! I've been playing bass since the 70s and I know a great funky bass player when I see/hear one. I especially loved her body language and facial expressions. So confident!

I love how you love the bass. You are so enjoying yourself 😊👍

Where you been, girl? So nice to see and hear you again!

When will you go Spotify??? Please do!... Love your art! Your creation of the covers is breathtaking!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Throwback!!! I was a waiting at the beginning in anticipation of how great this was going to be!! JDD... Julia Doesn't Disappoint! Since you do a little old school, how about Shalamar "Second Time Around".... Or anything else you like!! Lol

Brilliant. Excellent technique - really good fun to watch as well as listen to. Please find a backing band! Would love to see you and some other top-notch musicians doing something live...

She's so cool with it.

Just what I needed 😊 that slap sound is something else!

Puf que maestría. Felicidades por tu bonita forma de tocar. Todo un arte. 😉👍
