Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Cars / November 2008{OT} Hey, Joe...Before I read your reply...
I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco... No WAY can I play like him! >I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco... > > No WAY can I play like him! You didn't initially know who it was in that video??? >>I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco... >> >> No WAY can I play like him! > > You didn't initially know who it was in that video??? I didn't think it was from before he died. Once I thought about it I realized who it was. The man was a master. >>>I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco... >>> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > The man was a master. Here.

Melt your brain. > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVl39LBZGMw Oh, yeah! Probably one of the reasons I play as well as I do is because I was always trying to learn Who songs...and Jefferson Airplane, too. Jack Cassidy was also one of my heros. John Lodge was a big influence, too. Flea (RHCP) is one of the current masters. I like the Fiber camera on the end of the headstock. >>>>I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco... >>>> [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Here.

Buy yourself this album: http://music.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?WRK=2811320 Probably the most perfect blues & swing bassist on the planet. You'll learn plenty from him. > I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco... > > No WAY can I play like him! Few can play like him, I have a friend that plays all Jaco stuff , but his brain cant jam it and make it work in real life. Hey he said learn the song, and thats easy, just leave out Jacos jammin on it just follow the structure >> I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco... >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > the song, and thats easy, just leave out Jacos jammin on it just > follow the structure That's what I do when I run into a particularly difficult bass line. Kind of like "Limp Mode" when your ECU craps out! ;) >> On Nov 25, 9:57 pm, Hachiroku ???? <Tru...@e86.GTS> wrote: >>> I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco...

Either learn it, or put it away for a month and let your brain work it out when you're sleeping or doing things other than playing. >>> On Nov 25, 9:57 pm, Hachiroku ???? <Tru...@e86.GTS> wrote: >>>> I realized this afternoon that the bass player was probably Jaco...

Can't get away with that when you're the bass player. Have to make something up that sound close enough. I used to be like that, too, and then I realized that 3/4 of the people are drunk off their a.ses and won't even notice. >>>>> That's what I do when I run into a particularly difficult bass line. >>>>> Kind [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > I used to be like that, too, and then I realized that 3/4 of the people > are drunk off their a.ses and won't even notice. Well, there's the problem. Here, the open jam is run by a guy who is very good at welcoming guest players OFF the stage. He rarely does it with players who are in over their heads for lack of skill. But drunks...."see ya bye thanks for coming". Maybe the key words are "run by". Some jams aren't run by anyone. They're a cluster phuque. >>>>>> That's what I do when I run into a particularly difficult bass line. >>>>>> Kind [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > players who are in over their heads for lack of skill. But drunks...."see ya > bye thanks for coming". But...but...I was the *HOUSE* bass player! If there wasn't a more skilled bassist around, I was it! It's actually cool, since you learn a LOT. Also, I wasn't able to think on my feet that well, but it's like being taught how to swim by being thrown into the middle of the lake. And, since I am familiar with so many musical styles, I would borrow licks from here and there to keep things rolling. > Maybe the key words are "run by". Some jams aren't run by anyone. They're a > cluster phuque. Yeah...true. And, as far as drunks, I was referring to the *audience* ! |
