C'est curieux, à chaque vidéo que je regarde avec Anthony Jackson ( au début) , je comprends rien à ce qu'il fait , c'est hyper confus, c'est mal capté et je ne discerne pas les notes qu'il fait, c'est un brouhaha nébuleux! C'est pareil pour vous ?
thats not funky........its just fast. fast doest equal funk, but funk can equal fast!

Jeff BerlinとTony Grey以外は、全員Lee Ritenourとツアーやレコーディングで一緒に演ってる面子だなぁ。

what's teh piece Alphonso Johnson improvises on?
@stuartthorne48722 ай бұрын
An original of his entitled “Bahama Mama”.

All fine players, but Hadrian Feraud, Jeff Berlin, and Tony Grey consistently demonstrate mastery of the most difficult fingerstyle playing, grounded in superb musical understanding... "Percussive" bassists and other one-trick ponies cannot compare to the talents of these three gentlemen.

So, Marcus Miller is a "one trick pony"? Hmmm..., how many classic R&B recordings have the other bassists you listed played on? Also, Marcus Miller did his "mastery" thing of the album "Future Talk" by Urszula Dudziak..., during the eras he played for artists such as Roberta Flack, Luther Vandross, and Lenny White. Clearly, you don't listen to music, just the bass solos. Master the "1", let's try that. Other notable "one trick ponies"? Larry Graham, Bootsy Collins, Paul Jackson, Verdine White. Go play some bass.

@@skineyemin4276 It's a blessing that our beloved instrument can be played in numerous styles, and each musical genre has its fans. Every bassist you mentioned has certainly added their own flavor to the music world over the decades... They are all talented players with their own style, feel, and sense of groove. However, when considering technical proficiency in fingerstyle and musical understanding, the three players I listed are clearly head and shoulders above the others. All experienced bassists understand this, regardless of personal preferences.

Well, at this point, most of it just all sounds like the same solo and everyone plays above the 10 fret; everyone, all the time. So now, being percussive is minimized technique? Why, because it was a technique created and / or perfected by someone black? I bet you also think that Flea re-invented funk bass, too. It's all a variation of "flamenco" bass.., 'soulless', and acrobatic, at this point. It's a "yeah, man!" type of playing. I'd like to see some of these cats play the bass line to something like the Ohio Players' "Skin Tight" without playing some goofy acrobatic, Jaco copied arpeggiated bass lick. Although, Abe Laboriel played with too many different types of artists and genres to innumerate....., with that....., well, "one trick pony", thing. Who in that video is funkier than Paul Jackson?

@@skineyemin4276 It seems our disconnect is rooted in our different viewpoint regarding the essence of performance. I rate my preferred three from the video based on their mastery of music theory, as demonstrated in their performances. They are not simply riffing and their note selection is not arbitrary. Specifically, they each effortlessly navigate complex chord structures with beautiful note selection and movements leading into and out of interesting passages at any speed. As a bassist and songwriter, I can objectively express my admiration for that type of performance at the highest level despite much preferring to listen to other bassists whose music I most enjoy (Rush/Geddy Lee, for example). It seems like you prefer R&B/Funk and that is absolutely your prerogative. If you rate based on funkiness, the equation certainly changes As for one-trick ponies, having worked in a bass shop for nearly a decade years ago, I have seen/heard countless such players in person playing slap riffs and enjoying themselves immensely, which is ultimately the point of playing an instrument one loves. Forgive me if it sounded as if I was grouping "percussive" players with "one-trick ponies", which was not the message I hoped to convey as there are certainly numerous levels of "percussive" play which are admirable. That being said, I firmly reiterate my stance that those three gentlemen stand above and beyond the rest in this video, based on the aforementioned criteria. Also, for the love of God, please do not attempt to make any of this about race. For example, the great Richard Bona demonstrates similar music theory mastery on bass as the three others I admire in this video... plus vocal ability. I will leave it at that. Enjoy playing and listening to great bass, my friend! :)
@@2236-l1z No need to compare two legendary bassists. Check out Alphonso Johnson's solo albums, they are amazing. IF you are a bassist you can learn so much from him.
