@gsagula2 Based on the comments you have made on other videos I am sure you are one of the "never had a gig, can't get a gig, can't play" morons whose only satisfaction in life is making hateful comments on other people's videos. One reason you can't can't get a gig is you rush everything and can't swing.
Tonight while are spewing more envious hate I will be playing a gig with one of the four different working bands I play in. If you could play, you would make a video for us. Until then STFU.
@XIIIX I am a big fan of James Brown. Jimmy Nolen and Catfish Collins pioneered the style in Brown's band. "Sex Machine" is still one of the baddest guitar grooves ever. Absolute perfection.
In later years JB recorded "It's Too Funky In Here." The live cuts I have found are too fast. But, the studio version has one of the fattest bass lines I've ever heard.
Bootsy's Rubber Band, Parliament, Funkadelic, Brothers Johnson, Cameo, Con Funk Shun, EW&F= all great grooves. Real PLAYERS!
@ReverendTFunk As for chords, 3 and 4 note stacks on the high end. Leave the low stuff for the bass. (Not always, of course) "Sex Machine" is a perfect example.
James Brown RIP---The Godfather of Soul. "Take me to the bridge!"
after watching the whole thing, I have to say he has a very good working knowledge of the fret board and can play very well, I take back my negative remarks, I see jazz ready to bust out of this guy, I think he was holding back, dam good though.
@timmerdonkey The purpose of the video is to offer analysis and information to those who have yet to figure out why funk sounds like it does, not to showcase my chops. Holding back? No. Just playing what is appropriate.
Don't drag!
