@Soul74 Taste (or, more formally, gustation; adjectival form: "gustatory") is one of the traditional five senses. It refers to the ability to detect the flavor of substances such as food, certain minerals, and poisons, etc.
Humans receive tastes through sensory organs called taste buds, or gustatory calyculi, concentrated on the upper surface of the tongue.
The sensation of taste is traditionally broken into basic tastes: sweetness, bitterness, sourness, saltiness, etc.
If you think he has no taste, just listen to some of his work... his playing with Bill Frisell, Sonny Sharock, Defunkt, Rollins Band, Arto Lindsay... and many many others. Melvin is not the show off bassist (well, this vid is a solo, so he is showing off, of course), but his bass has SOUL!
Well, quality of this video of Melvin's solo isn't in great quality either, but I can hear the difference :). And it was you who used those videos as a showcase of your skills (which, as i understood, you believe are better than mr. Gibbs')
it is a gift from the gods - music....liked it or not,it's absolute...☯
