I agree with a previous comment. Bass is about holding down the groove, staying in the pocket and syncing w/ the drummer. It's called being a "solid" bass player. All the showboaty stuff doesn't get you gigs...but being a solid in the pocket player, will.
@MrDerzu :what are saying????????????are you mad??this is so groovyyyyyyyyyy...if I need frases I'll watch Jaco or jeff Berlin but this is wonderful funky it's not too easy to play clean with this tone...but he incredibly breaks everythng...sorry for my english I'm italian...
really looks so hard, doesn´t sound fluidly, i don´t like the song eather the sound or the frases, i dont know how some people manage to get such a big name doing so little..............
@cehayes74 - I agree, I think he gets an umfair rap regarding his Solos in Concerts. I believe he deliberately keeps his solos less about the Technique and more about the Showmanship and keeping it withn the Groove. I'm a Bassist and I find a lot of Bass Solos are very boring and can kill the Atmosphere if they deviate from the Groove.
