Vito San Filippo is not Rocco Prestia

[chuckst0nes]

Man, what is that little lick you play at 2:35, it's awesome. Just can't figure out what you're playing. Maybe some muted notes on the D string, then ??!

[LPPR]

Congrats man...very good skilled bass player..!!!

[bullrushdotnet]

Nice bass

[macfilms13]

Vito was ALWAYS my favorite TOP bassist. Period.

[chuckst0nes]

Hay man, you've got such a great groove in your playing! Love it :) Just out of interest, who do you study? I'm guessing from your other vids Nathan Watts is in there, but you got any suggestions for a wannabe to get to your kind of level?

[hoobert]

@chuckst0nes Thanks!

When I started out Flea eclipsed all my other influences. Since then I've studied the playing of Louis Johnson, Freddie Washington, Pino Palladino, Rodney 'Skeet' Curtis, all of the Jamiroquai bassists, Marcus Miller... Obviously, James Jamerson and Paul McCartney had already been instilled in my brain from a young age, but it's always worth going back to them too.

There's no method to it though. If you hear a bassline that makes you feel good, just look up the player!

muito muito bom cara, adorei , dancei muito esta música em 1979

[bopeuph]

Hey man, I really dig your feel. It's safe to assume you use your chops to put a roof over your head, right?

[levieux2]

your cat don't like listening bass ? :)

[hoobert]

@levieux2 He's deaf. :)

[fjffoundation]

great man just great

[Fjord76]

hey great job mate ;)

LOL @ eric catona :P you're from Leeds right? (i'm french ;)

[hoobert]

@Fjord76 I grew up in London, but I lived in Leeds for a few years to study music. Nowadays I'm based in London again.

Eric Cantona was my childhood hero, hence the cat's name. ;)

[Fjord76]

@hoobert i knew it ;)

Arsenal or Chelsea? (or maybe Man U or Leeds?)

since we're speaking football, your bass vids are very cool mate :)

(i've posted a few myself) Peace out.

[bassyks]

Your cat knows about good music. (;

[UnMaxDeGrOove]

Be my teacher please :)

[BreakupBass]

im thinking of getting that bass or the highway one P, which do you think is better?

[hoobert]

@BreakupBass I've not compared it to a Highway One model, but I can vouch for it being a really solid, decent instrument. My other main bass is a Musicman Stingray, but I seem to find myself playing this one more.

[josenet2006]

nice one, and I love the sound of that bass.
