IMO, this is just a perfect example of how to wow a crowd with a bass solo! GROOVE > GROOVE > GROOVE
Juan Nelson is really becoming one of my favorite players. I just love the way he lays it down! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z52rh...eature=related |

The tone is just a little too "I'm-shopping-at-the-grocery-store-smooth-jazz" to me.

Definetly a smooth jazz tone, but nice for all of that, especially being a live performance. Most basses sound like A** on this type of recording, so i am impressed. What is a good tone to your ears? |

Wouldn't you like to know?! | | Join Date: Apr 2000 Location: Atlanta | | | That was a great funk groove being played by an amazing and extremely nice player. Sadly, some chose to look at the finger and not the moon that it was pointing at.
