My Pop and I have done the same sort of thing, but we used a Drum Machine. Sorry no clips though.



God Bless, Ray

Check out the first Hot Tuna record (just called Hot Tuna). There is a bunch of stuff on YouTube with Jorma and Jack as a duo. Here's one for starters:

I'd like some references, too.

That's definitely a project goal of mine - to do a trio drumless.
I'll be so bold as to say - at least in my area, there's a market for that.

John Mayall's "USA Union" isn't a duo or trio, but it does not have drums. Great album!

This John Mayall album is a classic, too. Steve Thompson plays bass.

Here's a song from it. Dig the punchiness of the bass playing.

The Hot Tuna and John Mayall albums were the first ones I thought of when I saw this thread title, great stuff. When I was first learning bass, everybody played Room To Move at jams.
