I love all things Staples SIngers deeply, but from that era my ultimate bass solo is Willie Weeks , Donny Hathaway Live, "Everything is Everything." He builds a whole thing up, and then delivers *everything*.

David Hood's playing on the record is so on point. The groove sounds so simple but it's definitely hard to master - even the great Scott seems to be slightly playing behind the beat whereas David Hood plays this right in the pocket, and so, so steady.

I thought most people knew that the bassline was almost a complete copy of a Reggae tune called "Liquidator" by the Harry J All Stars, with slightly different phrasing, recorded in 1969. Worth checking out so you know the history.

This was a great lesson, one of the greatest songs, amazingly entertaining and friendly banter between 2 great bassists, but more importantly, 2 great souls. Very encouraging. This is one of the greatest bass solo's, it connects emotionally even in it's simplicity which makes it accessible to almost every player, at every level. But I really like John Patitucci's solo in Jammin E. Cricket from Beneath the Mask.
@kimmorgan379
@kimmorgan379 9 месяцев назад
Yes. I agree. I always kind of think of it more of a break than a solo but it's just so well-judged: short, memorable, elegant, tuneful... just so tasteful and you can't sing the song in your head without adding the bass solo.

The theory only took 4 and a half seconds to explain, so that makes this, ipso facto, the greatest bass solo! 😜Seriously though, my favorite parts of this solo are the times when he chooses not to be flashy, or really, even move at all. Those times when he just lingers on a note at the end of a phrase is pure gospel loveliness.

Both Aston & Carly were the bass and drum section on stage and in the recording studios for The Wailers,which evolved into Bob Marley and The Wailers ). Here's where the history lesson of the instrumental begins and it starts in Jamaica,having a blast in the UK before reaching the US where it got reinterpreted and affixed with lyrics and then released globally. Still inspiring and delighting those who interacts with whichever version of it from 1969-2024 and beyond 'Tony Scott's 'What Am I To Do Now' originally released on the Estick Records label. The rhythm for 'What Am I To Do Now' was, in turn, used by Harry J(Harry Johnson) for Winston Wright's 'Liquidator' a UK National Chart hit in 1969 which reached the Number Nine position and stayed on the charts for twenty weeks.' As stated above the instrumental song Liquidator was released in 1969 and was a UK hit,predating The Staples 'I'll Take You There' hit 1971 recording and 1972 release.However the bass solo by David Hood was exceptional and it did add a brilliant complimentary dimension and flavor to Familyman's original tic tac grovey bassline(Thank you Dean Irwin for that apt description). I wondered what it would have been like,if both Familyman and David were in the same recording studio session.......total fireworks. Sir Scott,I don't know if you've ever done it before and if you haven't,it would be awesome if a feature was done on Aston 'Familyman' Barrett bass lines by you. Raspect

"Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side...." was the first thing to cross to mind. Please, for you love of fusion you should check out Polyphia "The Audacity" ft. Anomalie , or the band studio playthrough of "Neurotica". The band has a great bassist in Clay Gober who plays on plectrum, which of course is heresy to some. The band's guitarists have gotten a lot of attention in guitar community but behind them there is a solid rhytm section you should find out about.

The greatest bass solo is the Willy Weeks one, from the last song on the Donny Hathaway live album. Wicked!

That main riff sounds like the old Ska classic Liquidator by Harry J Allstars. That was 1969 i think.

You've got a good ear for recognizing musical connections! "Liquidator" by Harry J Allstars is indeed a classic ska tune, and it's always interesting to see how different songs may share elements. 🎶🎸

You know the intro to this song was lifted almost note for note from the reggae song "The Liquidator" from The Harry J Allstars!

Question: why not play the A open to stay at the third fret for the riff? That way you're just a couple of frets away to the F.

I'm pretty new to bass and I was asking myself the same question. Is there a phonetic reason? it sure does sound the same to my newbie ear and it's a lot easier to play.

Love the cover on this song. One of my favorites. Have you ever did anything on bassist Louis Satterfield?

Thank you for the love! Louis Satterfield is a fantastic bassist, and we'll definitely consider featuring him in future content. Stay tuned for more bass goodness! 🎶🎸

Check out The Liquidator by The Harry J Allstars. That’s where the bass groove was lifted from.

Hey Scott and Scott's brother from another mother! I'm thinking in getting a new P bass. Need a recomendation on American pro 2, Ultra, american vintage II 54 or other kind, and why? looking for P sound on flats and the J pickup is not a must but nice to have. Love the content.

You need to try and play all of the ones that you're looking at and pick the one that feels and sounds best to you!! We all have our likes and dislikes in instruments so what works for us might not for you an vice versa!

The greatest bass solo of the 1970s - the greatest ever actually - was only many years later: Gary Thain, Why, bonus track on Demons and Wizards.

Awesome stuff. Would it be a good idea to get a Cello and tune it like a bass, or get a semi-hollow bass? Want to get that upright bass sound but no room for an upright bass. Keep killing it yall.

Check out Rob Allen basses - closest I've found to upright tone in guitar form. I use a Deep 5 with a pop orchestra.
@rothaarbiker
@rothaarbiker 9 месяцев назад
Or get a fretless bass ukulele (not kidding).
@devinebass
@devinebass 9 месяцев назад
Hey there! Both options can get you closer to that upright bass sound. If you're short on space, a semi-hollow bass might be more practical, but experimenting with a tuned cello can also be a fun and unique journey. Keep groovin'! 🎶🎸
