The Bee Gees - Night Fever - Bass Cover

[@atroticious]

Maurice Gibb was such an underrated bass player

[@BolsaChicaRadio]

Very, very well done, Infusion26. Maurice Gibb's "odd & yet unique" staccato-ish type interpretation of this song is somewhat of a head-scratcher. He could've easily have played the "rolling-high-notes" that most disco songs lent themselves to for bass lines in those days, but being the consummate musician that he was, the path of least resistance, was not his playing style, at all! Since the very first time I heard this song, Fall of 1977, I always felt he was playing an Alembic Bass on this album, due to the deep "plunging" sound (if I am allowed to even use such a crude term to describe what I am hearing) that ever-so-gracefully touched each and every track of their contribution to the Saturday Night Fever project. Maurice was a totally under-rated, under-appreciated bass player, only really honing down his bass playing skills by sort of a "default", when the brothers decided to hire a "full-time-band" to record their efforts from basically 1974 to early 1981, where he was relegated to primarily bass guitar. Before that era, Maurice focused on acoustic guitar, piano, mellotron and other early analog polyphonic electronic keyboards of that day. The late 80's had him experimenting on digital synthesizers and then finally coming full circle to 2001, when he gracefully brought back into play his famous acoustic guitar for the "This Is Where I Came In" recordings. Then, quickly after...Heaven. - BCRadio

[@geoffhalden6327]

What effect are you using on this track? ..very nice!

[@deksea]

Really good except you're adding an extra eighth note at the start of the first measure of the chorus. Its 4 eighth notes, not five. As great a player as you obviously are, im thinking you chose to put that extra note in there( and one or two other places) because you like that phrasing better than the original.
