A Taste Of Honey live - Boogie Oogie Oogie [HQ Audio]

[@aaronrivers64]

Her ability to play bass well and sing simultaneously is uncannily impressive.

[@Baci302]

I'll never understand how bass players can do that. Drummers too!

[@Goldencountry63]

One morning years ago she was on the back of a modest sized yacht catching morning sun while playing this over and over while I was working a boat a few dock slips down,it was one of the nicest treats ever while wrenching away hearing just the bass and occasionally a soft vocals at a perfect sound level.

[@timboyd4170]

@@Goldencountry63 wow how cool that is something to cherish I got to meet her at a concert out here in Sacramento about 10 years ago it was awesome I still am in love with her to this day Boogie Oogie Oogie always number one

the way she is just in command of everything the audience, the musicians, herself. This is how it is done

[@justanopiniondontgetbuthur8551]

She was simply amazing. WOW! What talent. Not many people have this level of pure talent. She did it all while killing it on the bass. vocals, playmanship and phrasing spot on. Worked the crowd while playing. How many people can do that?

[@cameroncooper4175]

Quite a few, actually. Sting for one... but loads of performers who may have opted to hire someone else to play bass - often at the urging of record companies.

[@p6x2]

I was in UK on vacation when the song came out. I purchased the record; back in my country I went to a discotheque and asked the DJ to play it. He said he did not have it yet. I went home to get my copy and he purchased it from me because it got everyone on the dance floor. I never forgot...
