[TheBonneMaman]

Fjord76, I really appreciate what you are doing. Listen, can you shed a bit of light on how you approach learning the tunes. Do you use some kind of slowdowner. I recently came from guitar and it is hard for me to hear the frequencies down there (I can somehow hear the rhythm, but the lows are hard to grasp). Thank you and enjoy your playing as much as we enjoy watching and listening to it!

[Fjord76]

@TheBonneMaman glad to know it can help :) Slowdowner? what for? it's already slow as hell lol no seriously, listening is the key:i'm sure i've been listening this album hundreds of times focusing or not on the basslines (there so much to listen to:beats,horns,riffs, not to mention the singing ;) and you're right: enjoying is the key :)

thanks for the kind words man, peace out.

[freshnyc]

yeah man. great job!

[AQPERRY]

Outstanding video!!! One of the best subtle bass songs around, so much going on thanks for showing the fingering and the string tuning for it!

[rockonjosh]

Brother thankyou so much. Your time feel is incredible you channel pino so well. Massively helpful video.

[Fjord76]

@rockonjosh cool to know it might be helpful. I think the main purpose of these vids is to show people that's it's doable; i mean i'm myself very lazy and it's simply by seing people out there covering some stuff that it occured to me that i could do the same.

[Tenesan1]

you are amazing wooooow!

[Fjord76]

@Tenesan1 well...you too, you know ;)

[Jack458111]

phenomenal man. excellent

[Fjord76]

@Jack458111 thanks but actually,the phenomenons are D and Pino! this tune really is different from the rest of the album:you have either live rythm section based tracks (Playa,Send it on,Chicken,Feel like makin love, spanish joint, Africa) or more linear beat-making based tracks like Devil Pie,L&R, the line, the root. This one is particular cause it seems linear but it ain't;bass & keys are sort of jammin along with vocals (from what i read, the bass track is proly an edit of several takes btw)

[mharlen03]

Great work! I've been trying to figure out that fill Pino does at around 3:25 for a while now. Awesome job man

[jdmoney86]

Man your awesome I wish I could play bass

[10Euphoria]

Your tone,groove and soul influence is something i havent heard or felt in a long time

Keep it up..

you.are.amazing :-)

[etherjoe505]

this is some heavy s**t, I didn't appreciate what was going on. Thanks for the break down.

D'Angelo + Palladino fan 4evah!!

[Fjord76]

@etherjoe505 same thing for me here; thought i knew that bass part pretty well till i decided to learn it...then i realize there were lots of subtle things i hadn't heard (even after 10 years of heavy listening) bass & keys mix so well on that track! D+Pino fan 4ever as well but that's only 5 tracks on Voodoo, one on RH Factor Hardgroove and one on BB King Deuces Wild...so far ;)

[Fjord76]

@Fjord76 i forgot Common's Geto Heaven and Fela's Water No Get Enemy cover with Femi Kuti and Macy Gray...

Russell Elevado recently reported that Pino came to cut some tracks with James Gadson and D in the studio 8P

[gabriellemccarey]
