dont know much bout Entwhistle...correct me if im wrong , but i think he concentrated solely on bass-playing..NOBLE indeed...but Jack 's a wee bit more than just a bass-player. He writes the songs , sings them , arranges the music , and leads the bands. hIS BASS-PLAYING IS OUTTA-THIS-WORLD..(And i love the fact that you can hear the influence of his classical traning thru his bass...)

jack was a better bass player than roger.

roger still kicks ass though.

[Pdru]

fucking nice voice

[retrogrouchable]

They were and are both great bassists, their technique was strong, their context different. Jack was a Jazz player, John was more classical/pop - end of argument.

[Lagiacrus42]

@janeythebrit as far as bassists go, John is by far better than jack. But musician ship, feel for the music and a sense of groove all go to Jack. Its really tricky to say who's better, honestly...

@janeythebrit - Jack Bruce once said of his classical training - "it took me about 4 years to unlearn everything they taught me before I could truly solo" - but you are correct - he is technically just so good - one of my three all time favourite performers and a huge influence on the genres I now enjoy because he crossed so many.

Outstanding. Jack is My bass hero

[handylandy007]

Amazing man love him

[viciousattackvideo]

@coopdaloop07 Of course.. needs to be auto-tuned and beat-detected. THAT will "fix" this.

[coopdaloop07]

cool bass lines, kind of sounds sloppy at some points, piano part at the end is sweet

@Martiluk1 my guess is Sting was listening, don't you think ?? One would hope he did.

[videostan]

@Drblooter99 AND...moves in and around and dances with the beat....floating like a butterfy, etc. NO ONE like him. There's been Jaco clones, but no Jack clones. No Entwistle clones. No Paul McCartney clones. I count myself so fortunate to grow up with his sound.

How can anyone sing and play this ... oh yeah , and write it ? Is that Graham Bond in the background near the end sequence ?

[1sirein]

So excellent comments here that nothing to add about the skills in bass, singing, composing. I also am impressed of the intensity of his performance, with such strength and sensitivity at the same time. Also, I watch this because Jack looks so divine. I am charmed also of his looks.

[Cactus29121989]

Wow! Where you find so good version of this concert?!

[junkdrum]

Cream couldn't contain Jack Bruce. Sorry, but Clapton could never hang with this. He needs one chord and 4/4 time.

[janeythebrit]

as the hippies used to say...this blows my mind.....

[cliffburton333]

this arrangement is excellent. love it.

[Drblooter99]

Great how he can sing hard while playing complex bass lines, and never misses a beat.

[Snotra]

Jack was a jazzman which requires more grey matter.

[rk3hunt]

I would have killed to see this 39 yrs. ago...He never ceases to amaze...I wish you could've seen Graham Bond in this on the organ , He was'nt with us much longer after this show.
