Thanks to everyone who read
my slap bass solo thread and asked me for some more tracks from that show. Here are a few others.
These recordings are all still rough, we have some remixing to do, but it is coming together as a half decent bootleg leading to the new studio recording we are doing this fall. Some highlights:
Soulglo (6MB) - one of ours, an original, as posted in the other thread.
It Is What It Is (8MB) - another of ours.
The Answer (7.5MB) - a Karl Denson Cover.
Jaco (6MB) - ours, and not written for or about the bass player. Evidently there is a beach in Costa Rica with that name, the inspiration for the tune. "Haco"
Squad (15MB) - a cover, I forget whose. It's the last song of the night where we all stretch out. Funky though. The chords I play in the bass solo were done completely by accident, although I always do some variation on them now.
Soul Vibration (13 MB) - an old Kool & The Gang tune that we morph into "Hang Up Your Hangups", which is a Herbie Hancock joint.
Again, rough mixes with some work to do on gain, clarity, and a few other things. I think the bass tone could be a little more assertive, personally, as it was in the room that night.
Enjoy, and come see us if you are in Denver.
