Answer Your Own Question (all stars nail it first take)

The one and only take recorded in the studio for the song "Answer Your Own Question" from Taylor Mesple's "Victory Land" CD. Abe Laboriel Jr. on drums, Mel Brown on bass, Keith Rosenhagen on acoustic guitar, Taylor Mesple on organ and vocals. Tim Pierce later recorded the guitar solo as an overdub. We sync'ed up the video with the actual CD track because the camera mic picked up distorted sound in the control room. I may post alternate versions of audio with the same video in the future if there's an interest for it, such as just the rhythm section. Filmed by Adrian DeSalvo (raw footage).

The bass at 2:33 WOW!

I'm a fan of Abe but what the bassist did there made me go "Wooo!"

I love this song, especially the way how the bassplayer does his thing! I'd like to have this song in mp3 format.

Every drummer should listen to this 30X before playing a drum fill again. In this song.. the groove IS the FILL!

Mel Brown on bass is perfect, Abe does a great job too of course.

Great snare drum, he looks to be playing it open (no damping) playing the outer snare to give that ring.

[Espdrums]

It is really hard to understand how good Abe is. Its sick!

[klaasdesomer]
