Dang it I meant donald hayes, looked over at something saw the name john and accidentally put that

[sample21383]

I heard john hayes and chris colemann and i went yep this is gone be good

[nigel670202]

ANYBODY KNOW WHAT TYPE OF STRINGS HE PLAYS WITH. I RESTRUNG MY MTD WITH A PAIR OF BOOMERS, AND BOY DID MY BASS SOUND LIKE A BIG AZZ FRET BUZZ THIS SUNDAY..........

[basslabd]

@nigel670202 I think he uses MTD Strings.It is not uncommon that any time you change string gauges you would have to adjust the truss rod (or have it done for you by a repairman if you do not understand the process).

[DuxJerome]

@nigel670202 basslabd is right. You can also replace the strings one by one.

This way the neck wont bend back. If you replace all strings at once the neck needs time to settle back.

Thats the rattle.

[MrFlamezv2]

@basslabd In your attempt to be funny your just unnecessarily rude

[lilejamie93]

CHRIS COLEMAN ON DRUMS :) :) :) :) :)

[stuartsherwin]

Track without the talking is here: /watch?v=_wGeYV1-bN4

[OzziePerch]

I disliked it because they tracked the interview on top of the music.

[basslabd]

@OzziePerch Fine go watch some other video then...

[stoob1969]

@basslabd ok, I'm clicking on another...

[skippymaroo]

@OzziePerch I agree - put the talking after the clip and I will watch some other video - If I wanted to here talking I'd listen to fox news

[raysan1234567]

@OzziePerch I take it, you already know how and why to tune down. I watched young perfectos a while back grumble at Bill Dickens who was TEACHING how to keep getting gigs after getting started. Show up on time, be prepared and so forth. These "phenoms" only wanted to hear Bill play. SO SAD. This info is invaluable, yet the primas think playing well alone makes a career. LEARN so as not to CHOKE when you get the gig.

[keyballa]

but seriously....WHY would u put the talking part on while he's killing the bass???...COME ON MAN????..SMH

[yralm07]

Andrew Gouche, Donald Hayes and the whole crew make we young cats really dig real gospel music in a fun cool way, the best way!!1

[chylly5]

Flat out badddd!!! Thedude is who he is...The Best!!! I never new about Stanley Clark until Andrew sat in my living room in 1979 and demo'd one of his songs for me. as long as I've know him he has play incredibly great. He has always been my inspirration for playing the bass, even though I was playing the guitar at the time. Bass is my first love because that's what I started out playing and am now playing.

[martin10921]

The song makes me feel like Im floating. Oh, and does any one know this songs name?

[ChristJesusAddict]

@martin10921

Its called Thank You Lord originally done by the late Bishop Walter Hawkins in the late 80's or maybe early 90's.

[martin10921]

@ChristJesusAddict Thank You, do you know if he did a studio cover?

[martin10921]

The song makes me feel like Im floating.

[tobias0598]

I heard better bass players before.....

[Moog167]

@tobias0598 Maybe you have but the gigs he's played on are amazing....

[rowidz]

I really enjoyed the video. You have some mad chops, my friend. You seem like a real class act with a whole lot of heart and charisma. Your stories are very entertaining. After all the media coverage and fame, the first thing you say is "I hope I don't mess up". Its rare to find that kind of humbleness and poise in famous musicians today. Have you ever thought about holding bass player workshops? Or possibly doing some sermons? God Bless.

[SouloSwang]

talented

[basslabd]

There are other videos of Andrew here on YouTube (look to the right) . Thank you for your comments but THIS video does exactly as I intended it to do. Thank you.

[bboytony209]

hey bro you think you can repost this vid without the talking part??? i can appreciate the bio info but not during the playing... thank you.. God Bless

[keyballa]

yo why did u have the talking part on this video???!??...i mean WHY???...not a good idea for future reference

[bemolable]

Comodín toca!

[stockinglover22]

what asshole put the talking part in the music clip...dam you making me loose my Christianity man....

[basslabd]

@stockinglover22 I think you have done that all by yourself. Have a nice day.

[zmatthew91]

@basslabd very well put sir.

[terrellyoung]

you cant even hear the music due to the talking, that sucks big time

[Passion613]

would have been nice if he stopped talking during the song.....

[biggspoon68]

did u see how he did his strings on 2:12??...how did he do dat??

[CwickVB]

wish i could hear the music. you could have made it two videos!!!!!!

[mrjazzdancer]

Donald Hayes is incredible!

[jasononbass124]

was 2:06 a mess up hahaha

[dnabey]

@jasononbass124 yeah it was but u know how us bass players do --we slide into the right note and keep going lol!

[James015]

Really wish the you didnt put him talking over the music.

[hbeez87]

CHAKA KHAN

[japa1990]

im trying to find some recordings with him in it but cant on itunes... Anyone know who he plays with?

[dnabey]

@japa1990 Edwin Hawkins Music and Arts Seminar Mass Choir - the recording at Howard University was so incredible - around 1985 or 6, New Jersey Mass Choir, Daryl Coley - a recording the nineties somewhere because Jimmy Neuble did a lot of that back then -- too many to name because he did a lot of live stuff w/ gospel artists

[funkbeastbasslover]

anyone know the make of that guitar, looks very thick for a custom style strat but I can't see the headstock well. And I love the way the dialogue plays during the beginning, its like poetry over his playing lol

[basslabd]

Andrew has played basses made by Michael Tobias since the 1990's. His current basses are Mike's MTD brand of basses. BTW, Andrew (as he mentions in the video) is on the cover of the Jan Bass Player Magazine. There is even a picture of me on page34 holding a MTD bass in Michael's booth. I edited teh video with the intention of giving the viewr more information without having a long running time.

[funkbeastbasslover]

I like the way you edited the vid then sir it almost makes me more interested in what he's saying. but sorry to have not been clear I mean the guitarist that is playing with Andrew, I am curious as to the make of that guitar. I've known about MTD for sometimes now, very popular in the gospel music bass realm

[redonkulousage]

It looks like a G&L to me.

[Sdelacruzm]

Andrew tambien toca con Israel Houghton ademas de Terrance Palmer??

ambos son muy buenos .... respecto al video no se percibe bien la musica por la entrevista que se oye a la par :(

[basslabd]

Does Andrew also play with Israel Houghton in addition to Terrance Palmer??

both are very good .... with regard to the video the music is not perceived well by the interview that is heard at the same time:

[hahabass]

Mr Gouche. Great player, but he treads all over the guitarist's solo.

[juice108]

@hahabass It was a bass seminar who cares about the guitar solo. Bass Rocks HAHAHa

[mrkegel1]

that's such a good sound. i want 2 be just half as good as this guy Gouche

[junrhee]

SUPERB!!!

[clewi1091]

very nice. is there alot of compression used on that? i love that sound.
