[zapphead]

That's some heavy ass bass thumpin'...I rate you a 10 and a half...

I admire LOUIS JOHNSON'S speedy, bass thumpin' skills...I can honestly say you can keep up with him, in fact, I heard you going faster than the song...I know you feel it man...

Louis Johnson is the SHIT! I have this one right here on vinyl...RUFUS-Party 'Till You're Broke

I am HEAVILY INFLUENCED FUNKATEER who also happens to play the TALKBOX (which I call my DOGGBOXX) like the LATE, GREAT ROGER TROUTMAN of ZAPP!

Stay Funky!

[funkstar650]

Thank you SO much for the cool comment. Glad you like my vids and my playing. Yes I got the vinyl as well right here at home. Good ol' days.

Curious to your sounds with the talkbox since I am a HUGE fan of Roger as well!!! May he rest in peace.

Peace and again thanx for commenting and rating.

[groovemak]

George...you are just so fonky my friend!!!

Excellent playing and feelig (as usual!!!)

5000/5!!!! ;-)

[funkstar650]

Hey my friend, thanx for commenting on this one as well! And thanx for the rating too! You keep on playin' that bass OK! You're one of the tightest on the Tube!

Peace

[MrToliver01]

Good job! You were into it, and I appreciate that!

[funkstar650]

Thank you! It's a cool bassline so I think and yes I was trying to get into it as best as I could.

Peace

[funkstar650]

[mafguitars]

Johnson has been cloned !!!!!! ;)

[funkstar650]

LOL, thanx for commenting on this one as well! When are we gonna get together and jam some? ;-)

Peace my man

[Phobia36]

hey you are very good...do you have any advice on slapping? i can slap to easy bass lines but not anything to complex like this. in my opinion les claypool is the best though.

[funkstar650]

Thanx! You can check out my info page on YouTube where I got a few pointers for all players. Maybe that'll help a little bit.

And everyone has a fav bass player. Cool to hear that Les Claypool is yours. Mine can be read on my info page as well.

Peace and if ya need any more help, you know where to reach me.

[retawdee]

Great playing. I would've thought that it was Louis actually playing if I had'nt seen the video.

[funkstar650]

Thank you! That's one of the biggest compliments I can get although I believe noone can play like Louis. His power, skills and stamina are one of a kind. All credits to him!

Peace and thanx for commenting!

[LuQe40000]

[funkstar650]

Great you also got a Sabre! Take good care of it since they are pretty rare. Keep on playing OK!

Great!! Remember to have fun! That's what it's all about. Did you see the rest of my vids? A lot of other catchy tunes on there (I think :-)).

Keep on jamming that bass my friend and let's keep in contact.

[cirrusmajor]

Hey, you got Rufus! Not many people know about Rufus without Chaka. Louis Johnson on bass!!! You don't pick the easy ones now do ya? Greatt band and great song. I've got a few albums that I still play... And... there's a beautiful Rufus song on my channel, also from the same album.

[funkstar650]

Yeah I know! Rufus has always been one of my favs. Especially the songs with LJ on bass. And nah I don't pick out the easy ones. That ain't no fun at all! :-)

I seen the song on your channel! And you also have Slave, Con Funk Shun etc... man that stuff rocks and FUNKS!

[OisinRobinson]

The bass in your video sounds better than the bass in the original recording! Chunkier and funkier...

[jamesattard]

[illapelit]

i can't find it in ares xD sorry .-.

[illapelit]

what is the name of the song?

[funkstar650]

errr are you serious? How about 'Tonight we Love'. It says it in the title of the video.

Peace

[fabibass]

Great tune - is that Louis Johnson on the original recording?

[funkstar650]

Hey fabibass, yep it's the legendary Louis Johnson himself playing this line.

Peace

[mbaldoz]

this song is so dope...you can break to it or just relax..hahah

[funkstar650]

Yeah man I know what you mean... this song makes your head bop doesn't it? One of the reasons I played it.

Thanx for your comment.

Peace

[lindalowb]

Yeah....he's really having fun! ;-) Great bassline again George! Ik really admire you!

[hahabass]
