I love how he refers to fills as "fiddly bits"... it sounds like that term should refer to something else, but I'm not quite sure what....

| | | Billionaire bass lessons, cool
For someone of his wealth & fame to take time out to do simple bass lessons is very cool.
What a stark comparison to these guys- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aw3BV...eature=related
Playing less can mean more, make more money, and have greater impact on people.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Palm Beach County, Florida | | There's an interview I just read with him where he was asked by a music store employee in NYC what kind of strings he uses, and he said " long shiny ones" because he really doesn't know. The anti-gearhead.
There's another video from the same session where he shows how he plays the same song with two guitar parts, doing the overdubs and showing the fingering and tabs for all three parts. This is the first of a four part video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fW8Tk1JJ3M

For what it's worth, I like Macca/The Beatles too.
I wasn't the one who insulted Jaco/Jeff there... | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
