This is the time where black music was not restricted reduced to rap music !!thank you so much we used to have greats instrumental music musicians singers etc dancer 💃🏾 yeah make it funky !!
Being from Detroit, we’re no stranger to Slave and the bands legacy. Still one of the baddest groups I’ve heard to this day and same thing for Mr. Adams…STILL one of the baddest bass players I’ve ever heard. When everyone was going for a perfect polished bass tone and playing…here came Mark Adams with a really raw and rugged style. It was definitely unique for the time! I always refer to it as ‘street bass’ because what you hear is what you get! Also, fantastic playing by his son here and I guarantee Mr. Adams would be beyond proud!
Yoooo....I bow down to you Sir...I love Slave!! Stevie and the old crew...but it was the bass guitar that made Slave Funky!!! Yes Steve was watching ladies going by but it was just a touch of BASS that made it funky. Keep playing my man ... I will come to OHIO just to see you guys but promise me a full show with Sugar Foot and the Players!! Job well done for this set.
OMG! I had forgotten about this song. These bass licks, are the stuff of life! The entire song, vocals, horns, guitar, drums, is all there! TY, to whoever shared this!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Just one Question...How in the "FUNK" do you EVA forget about Slide....(Its my Ringtone)...When this dropped in 1977...It bought a whole new level of Funk...!!!
@@TheBlackbudda08 , right! I was in high school at the time. That was a good minute ago, but I really shouldn’t have forgotten, the way that bass line funked me up!😉
@@TheBlackbudda08I know that's right I had a 8track boom box mounted on my 10 speed bike in 77 I was 16 I wore that 8track out so bad I had to fold a piece of paper and stick it on the side in order for it to play.😂😂
Well done mark Adams jnr. I think his fathers bass guitar player was so fantastic , it should be studied in music university classes. Slave were a super but underrated funk band. Their albums stone jam showtime visions of the light bad enuff and unchained at last were superb. Steve Arrington Danny Webster and of course the magnificent mark Leslie. Adams. I think his guitar playing was a gift from the gods. Thankfully funk music shows on RU-vid Truth in rhythm by Scott Goldfine keep the funk alive.
I'm looking forward to having your release in my collection along with the masterful sounds of the bass produced by your dad during his time with SLAVE. Not One bass guitar player then or now (other than you) could duplicate your dad's work...gone too soon, but his legacy lives through you as he's smiling looking & dare I say it...Watching You. God Bless You.
To much talking, need two guitar leads. But tts good , no hate please some how touch base with Fearless Leader , I know it’s lmpossible That’s my Dream good luck
Drac would be proud of that solo, I had a chance to play with him and hang with him when he was in baton rouge for a while, really cool kat, he gave me his number, but he passed b4 I could hit him up.
Back in the late 70s/early 80s EVERY prospective bassist in Dayton, Ohio knew about Drac, and wanted to play like him. Amazing how young those dudes were when they hit big…
Wazzup Boieee!!!🙋🏿♂ Long time no holla from ya friendly neighborhood FaceBook Poke Genius😆 Gr8 ta see ya still slaying it on ya Throbasonic Rodan Axxe🎸👍🏿🔥🔥🔥✊🏿🎶
Wait ! Is the Bass Player really MARK ADAMS from the vinyl albums and CD'S OR is he his son ????. it's because i have the most important vinyl albums, and also on CD. i do recognize the sound of bass. They said on the back of a vinyl album 1976 1977/1978 : You will always hear us, but you will never see us. It is now 2022. Glenn
@@markakridge6895 I listened to "Feel my love" in about 1999, in a compilation here in Italy...I was thunderstruck, it was the music I've been looking for for years...twenty-five years ago it wasn't easy to find Slave records here in Europe. ..but today, thanks to the reprints, the collection is complete...thanks to you, my friend, Fungk forever
@@markakridge6895 I went to Roth High School and remember at a talent show, all the guys coming up on stage playing that on their bass guitars... Awesome
I know you're a busy man Mark.I NEVER knew what REAL funk was like until my girlfriend from Dayton gave me "The Concept" album while we're both stationed in Korea.Stellarfunk,The way you live is heaven are the bomb BUT To this day I have NEVER heard a funk song like "Coming Soon" In one of your next shows could you play a little bit of it and upload it if ya'll film it.Thanks again"Mr.Mark" and the funk is with you!!!.
