Do you sometimes feel a little self-conscious when the "eye" (camera) is one you?
Any way, great job, I am a huge supporter of bass players, we should always be an encouragement to each other and not put down. I believe we should be open minded and quick to help improve each other men & women alike...
The thing about you is you are not playing the song. The music with-in you is playing the song. The feeling and emotion necessary to produce the desired result is with you. I can tell there is real happiness and joy as you are playing and that emotion comes out through you and your instrument. I love musicians like you that are "one" with there instrument rather than just playing from memory
the only person on youtube other than freddie washington who understands the pocket in this song. notice the facial expressions folks. it's called funk!
Hey, it's me again. Thanks for your response. I got a 14yo nephew, I showed him your cover for Patrice Rushen. He made sure to put it on top of his list to learn. Bragging that's easy. Haha. He just started but very focused young man. More power to you. Thanks for sharing your terrific talent.
@silentpm lol, naughty huh? :-) Guess I'm just into it... yeah I play in a couple of bands. From rock to Salsa to funk. I try to be as versatile as possible. But the funk is what gets my blood pumping...
hey have you ever tried to play Galaxy by War, 1979 I think....some bad bass playing in the intro.....I'm sure you coul nail it!! C'mon post it soon :-)
@puffcandy1 Hey yeah I know Galaxy.... cool song but not too interesting when it comes to the bass line since it just goes on and on for 5 minutes without a bridge or anything else. It's great song to dance to and to sing along with but to play along is a little boring. Maybe you got another song that you would like me to play?
@funkstar650 I could listen to you play that all day long....my favorite song also!! If I could learn to play any instrument it would be bass....oh yeah
Dude, that one SMOKIN' hot bass job you pull off. Fuckin' HOT HOT HOT ! I loved this and all that other good funk back in the mid 70's and on. I was a 14 year old pasty white dude and HATED rock. This is what you do with a bass. Indeed. Awesome job !
Noice work my man, I watched the whole vid, you had my attention all the way... great feel! Nice to see someone playing and obviously having a lot of fun in doing so!
I think that after playing guitar for the last 20 years, this bass line will be the catalyst for buying my own Fender Jazz..
Quality mate, just quality. You made me smile watching you groove along with this tune!! Looks like you're LOVING playin along with it. Respect! GREAT SONG.
First, let me congratulate you on a flawless job, second, let me congratulate you on your song choice. That song really demonstrates modern funk bvass work at it's finest. I remember how distinctive the bassline to this ws, from back when I was a kid!
Hey there, thank you for the comment! I don't ever work with tabs though so I have no clue where to find those. I just use my ears and my senses. Tabs from the internet shouldn't be trusted anyways...
Well thank you. MarloweDK is a YouTube friend of mine and he is more of a real bass player. All respect to him! I am not really a bass player... I am just bass crazed :-) And I play different than him, different tunes also. I stick to the more on-da-one FUNK (not in this clip) but I just have a different approach to my songs that I play along with. More dirty power play if you may call it that way. :-)
Hi there! Thank you so much for the nice comment! Although mine is not a flawless version I think I did fairly OK. Again thank you for commenting. Hope you like my other 40+ vids as well.
that is a FUNKAY bassline and you make it look easy! hey how soon will you have your new videos posted? and when you do will you take a request every now and then because i would really like to see fantastic voyage by lakeside!
Hey there my friend, thanx for commenting. Glad you like my vids. I stopped doing bass play alongs due to legal matters. Five of my vids were blocked due to the fact that I play along the original recordings. So pretty soon I will come up with regular bass stuff playing along a drum computer or something... Hope you will still like it.
:-)... There are more players out there who do this song better than I do. But this is MY version and it's done with the best intentions. I played it by request and this is how *I* think it's played (kinda). But then again, I might be totally wrong. I am glad you like it though.
I'd like to request you do a bass cover of the number 2 hit (should have been number 1), grammy nominated (should have won) "We Are Family" by Sister Sledge.
Hey there, thanx for the request. I appreciate it! Unfortunately I stopped doing bass play alongs since a few of my vids got blocked due to legal rights. From now on I will just do bass vids with a drumcomputer instead of playing along the original track.
Alright This is the LAST post you get from me(at least tonight) I gotta go to bed! I just commented on your Confunkshun "Touch" and Tom Browne "Thighs High" Then I saw this one and had to click it. All I can say is three time's the charm Bro You did it one mo'gain Where are you from? Do you play with anyone or should I say does anyone play with YOU? And if so do you ever get to The Bay (Northern California)? Lemme know. One more thing "Peanut Butter" Lenny White w/Twennynine?(peace)and OUT!
Thanx my friend. You can check out all my vids by looking at my homepage on the Tube. There are 40+ ol' school funk tunes I play along with. Hope you'll like some of them. Not played perfectly but then again, just having fun on da bass :-)
I am from the Netherlands and I do play in 3 different kinda bands at the moment. From pop to rock to funk. It doesn't really matter but Funk is where my heart is at as you can tell by watching my vids. Thanx again for commenting!
Thanx roswel42, I got more vids. Check out my homepage. A whole variety of funk/disco related songs are published on the Tube. For the time being though since quite a few are blocked due to leagl issues. :-( But I will be back soon with more bass vids.
You are the greatest bass player i have seen!great playing. you know eumir deodato keep on moving? can you play that too and put in you tube?Greethings from Germany!!!!
Hey there! Thank you so much for the nice comment. I don't know the song realy but I will listen to it someday. Unfortunately I stopped doing bass play alongs since a few of my vids got blocked due to legal rights. From now on I will just do bass vids with a drumcomputer instead of playing along the original track.
LOL, nah I ain't the original player but thanx for the great comment. Unfortunately I have to stop doing play alongs on YouTube. These last few days I had 4 of my vids blocked due to copyright issues so I won't take the chance to get into some kinda legal battle. From now on I will only make bass video's without the original music playing in the background.
Thanx sammi812, I really appreciate the comment. It doesn't matter if you're a 'root-five' player... as long as you can play 'in the pocket' it's fine! Keep on enjoying the bass!
You know, the band "Lakeside" (Something About That Woman) "Barkays", "Delegation" (gonna bring the house down, I wantcha back, put a little love on me)? I have all these songs and are better trained, I put here ... heehe
I just saw previous video takes and this one has to be one of the cleanest Triplet Thumps I've seen yet. The Triplet cleans come up at the top of the freting takes. Not at the bottom. And yet he's got the lowest hits. Also
Hey there, thanx for commenting. I am not really sure what you mean with your comment. Are you saying I am not playing it right according to the original? It's OK if I am not. I just 'think' that this is how it's played. And the bass I play here is a full scale Fender Jazz, although I know the original is played on a Precision.
Hiya, there is nothing there NEAR the bridge all except the pickup itself underneath the strings. On the other hand, there is a pickup guard over the neck pickup which is kinda Ol' Skool. Marcus still plays like that and he kinda uses it as a arm/wrist rest.
great performance, great bass player greetings from southern italy !!

I just saw previous video takes and this one has to be one of the cleanest Triplet Thumps I've seen yet. The Triplet cleans come up at the top of the freting takes. Not at the bottom. And yet he's got the lowest hits. Also
this one sounds like a 3/4 neck bass.

Hey there, thanx for commenting. I am not really sure what you mean with your comment. Are you saying I am not playing it right according to the original? It's OK if I am not. I just 'think' that this is how it's played. And the bass I play here is a full scale Fender Jazz, although I know the original is played on a Precision.
Thanx for commenting!

hey whats that thing over your strings near the bridge?
WrestlerFRK09 3 years ago
Hiya, there is nothing there NEAR the bridge all except the pickup itself underneath the strings. On the other hand, there is a pickup guard over the neck pickup which is kinda Ol' Skool. Marcus still plays like that and he kinda uses it as a arm/wrist rest.
