[@portcherish]

It is quite a journey to be a musician, it has taken me too long to understand. Very glad to come across this amazing interview. I've heard about Chuck Rainey for years, this is the first time I have been able to hear him speak, I feel very blessed and fortunate.

[@hannahbogan1392]

Mr. Rainey, you ARE “all that” on bass! ♥️

[@jackmarchese4264]

Anything this man says is Gospel Listen and Learn from one of the best in my opinion

[@johnrosier1686]

I appreciate Chuck’s words of wisdom about the bass and his playing on the bass.

[@jazzman1954]

Top man. First time I’ve heard this guy speak. Grew up listening to his playing.

[@vandogs181]

Wow! I love this man's attitude and the experimental approach to the bass ... very encouraging to me.

[@fearofnot6433]

This man tell's it straight up! ~ Fantastic Bass Player! :)

"Gimme the ball! Gimme the ball!" LOL that made my day

[@Joesfosterdogs]

Jeff Porcaro held Chuck to THE standard...nuff said! Chuck and Lee...just those two cats can make a cross country drive fill your music needs...and you will only hear 10% of what they played on!

[@TenFalconsMusic]

If you asked me what the best bass album is... ...without hesitation, II would say it was Chuck's playing on Steely Dan's Aja.

[@bepitan]

peg!

[@eckie4679]

I remember learning Kid Charlemagne from Guitar Pro tab. I played all the right notes and in time and it sounded nothing like Chuck. He has a unique quality to the feel of his bass playing. Many have tried but few have succeeded to emulate him 😎

Chuck Rainey, wassup? Do you remember "Marvin (and his wife Khine-khine, and daughter Myanno) f. Alrom Japan?" I saw you in Japan maybe more than a few times. . . remember when I picked you up and we went over to Paul Jacksons (R.I.P.) house? Also, I have a photo that shows you (and me and my family) out to dinner at a yakitori bar in Shibuya! I ain't never forgot the good times we had. Myanno is now a Junior at Northwestern University outside Chicago. She's majoring in "international diplomacy." Khine-khine just wanted to use me to get intoThe US, (she says . . . the story is long and complicated . . . I'm in SanFrancisco . . . check me out if you have time. I'm retired! (plenty more to say.)

How was this recorded? Binaural? The sound seems wander around. Wild!

[@johnt7073]

Love that harem!

un grand

[@DonKeeheehaaw]

9:40 sounds like chuck had been listening to some les claypool ?

[@MntnBass]

What bass was he playing in the video?

[@spencernation7847]

Xotic XPJ-1T.

[@randyfolkner9496]

The Morgan Freeman of bass 🤩

[@bepitan]

he has created some amazing bass lines but that noodling he did just there was nothing much at all.

[@PorchBass]

The stank face is strong at 7:20

[@niemand3774]

It´s because he feels bass all the time! And that means soloing does not make much sense to his musicality! Which I understand very much. But his strength is to create real bass lines - and many of todays soloists are only good playing "without music", on their own! Chuck is not used to flash about, but listen to his recordings - a genious!

WTF??
