Your soloing is outstanding. Very Lafaro... but different in your own way obviously.

You sound just great! Sounds like you got it all. Your bass sound is really full on the bottom with plenty spread and the notes on the E string flower beautifully. Great chops with no need to over-play. Your solo makes use of the upper and lower registers.
What can I say....great!
One thing I would like to ask is....would you mind filling out your profile? It'd be nice to know something about you. Age, and where you are.

Many fast players have the ability to go up the fingerboard with the help of gravity. I like the way you move down the board and use cross fingerings on the way. Also, I enjoy your lyrical bendings of notes. Red Mitchell always colors his solos beautifully by bending notes and using his left hand fingers to play triplets and down-slurs. Nice colors! Your time playing is very hip and you clip the notes to make more colors in your time playing.

I'll chime in on that thread when I get to a faster connection.I'm sure the new one will be every bit as satisfying as the other one!

Steve,
I'll chime in on that thread when I get to a faster connection. In the meantime, you may all now continue worshipping Mr. WARMBUTTOCKS and his great playing.  | Bring it on, cats

No that's not right, it was probably in the "What do we look like?" thread. I dunno....anyway, he pretty much looks like he could do a top removal on his own bass, barehanded. |

Can't say I'd disagree about the top-removal comment!
