Bob James - Feel Like Making Love / Night Crawler (4K)

[@teskio]

22 years ago I wrote Bob a few emails asking about his equipment and instruments and the man responded personally and was very detailed. Great guy

[@conned]

Wow! I didnt realized email went that far back! ...

[@oriolesbirdman20851]

@@conned I was using email back in the late 1980's at IBM...it was called the PROFS (Professional Office System). So email has been around a long time in the business world...took longer to catch on for home use...

[@tonylancer7367]

Teskio, what equipment did he mention to you that he used? What year was this?

[@teskio]

@@tonylancer7367 it was around 1998/99. I was a teenager. The main thing was the Rhodes Suitcase. That’s the sound I wanted and so as soon as he told me I set out and managed to find a used one. His mainstays were the Yamaha Yc-30, the Arp Odyssey, Fender Rhodes, Oberheim synth and some electric pianos and clavinets.

[@tonylancer7367]

@@teskio That's so cool! I think for me I always wonder what sounds he used, especially during his time in Fourplay during the 90s, that Yamaha piano and I think a DX underneath? Absolutely delicious, still wonder to this day. 😁

Bob James is 82 here. Well, of course that’s astonishing given his youthful, soulful, spicy keyboard playing. 😊

Almost 40 years ago my mom played this album for us. Growing up in Goa, India. Such great memories associated with these sounds. Thanks Bob.

I knew Bob James would be superb, but the bassist and drummer just flat out rock. Well done, gentlemen!

[@eugeniosalexander]

agree!

[@robertputt7794]

I've never been much into Jazz, but Jazz with Soul... Incredible... You are right, Bass and drummer ROCK!... Thanks Bob... 👍👍

[@lorispenclor4406]

Love drummer Billy Kilson he’s always fantastic!

[@stephenmurphy7804]

3 instruments, the piano jazz trio create heaven with these gents. Bass player so good he must have started playing at 2 😂. Incredible timing, unique feel. Wow a million thanks 🥳🥳

[@tombeyer375]

They're all very good at what they do! Immaculate timing!

[@rodmact6548]

Oh man, this is just awesome. This track illustrates perfectly why such a perfect thing as the classic piano-bass-drums jazz trio exists and continues to do so and will forever be so -- three immortal beings inhabiting and sharing the same musical universe together making perfect aesthetic sense and perfect music. And let's give a hand to the engineering. All of it...just wow!

[@junosensis]

First time i hear your music. All I can say is : Thank you.

[@charlesbarry971]

This is the first time I've heard an upright acoustic bass sound so clearly. Thanks to the sound engineer.

[@cooldebt]

Emmet Cohen also has great sound engineers - and he also works with great bass players :)

[@jakeperl5857]

I love how Bob enjoys the bass solo so much he just stops playing!

[@robmelnyk9251]

Looks like such a comforting place. I could take an easy chair in the room with a glass of bourbon and watch these three great musicians

[@hectorjaviergomezrosas1369]

This piece of music is, to say the least, heavenly. Every time they play it they outdo themselves, from the point of view of neurobiology (I don't want to bore you) the feeling it gives releases a series of chemical neurotransmitters in the brain that generate pleasure and that makes it addictive, thanks for giving us this gift

[@blancapulido7022]

I discovered a whole new musical realm when I stumbled across Bob James in the early '70s. His music helped launch my new age jazz show on our college radio station. Until then, the station was mostly classical. Thanks Bob for a lifetime of pleasure.

[@neilloughran4437]

I remember buying Bob James' Heads from a music fair circa 1990 and fell in love with Night Crawler... I ended up getting quite a lot of his LPs from that era including the one with Angela on and a live LP. I distinctly remember him being interviewed with Joe Sample for Blues and Soul magazine around the same time and they were both talking about their love for modern keyboard sounds of the time and how they weren't so interested in Rhodes et al.. Glad Bob had a change of heart as he sounds great on it...
