Yea, I noticed that too. I assume he was playing through both, or maybe some body else was plugged into the Acoustic. Either way that's a mountain of sound!

David Hood on bass from "The Swampers". Muscle Shoals studio guys along with Roger Hawkins on drums.
Shame on me for not knowing that. My head is bowed in embarrassment. You'd think I would know that, considering where I live.
one of my favorite bass "solos"is David Hood on the Staples'"I'll Take You There".Shame on me for not knowing that. My head is bowed in embarrassment. You'd think I would know that, considering where I live.
It makes me chuckle when you hear derogatory remarks about "White people don't have rhythm" " White people don't have soul". I'm like, you obviously have not been paying attention. Some of the greatest music ever made was a harmonious collaboration between African American and white musicians. Its mind blowing how many people don't know who Dan Penn and Spooner Oldham are. Politicians should be more like musicians. The world would be a better place.
Late '70s amp porn:
Music Man HD 130 w/118 cab, Acoustic 220 w/215, and guitarist's Dual Showman on top of a Twin Reverb sitting on a Dual Showman 215 guitar cab. And ultra-cool Acoustic banner (I worked in a music store that sold Acoustic and MM) Yes, we were loud.

Yes, that is most defiantly amp porn, and you didn't even mention the Alembic bass. You must have a separate bass porn thread.
I picked up a 150 blue face about 10 years ago. It was sitting on the ground under an old tobacco barn shelter. It was so nasty. Got it home, cleaned the grime replace the power cord and plugged it in. Behold the light came on turned up the volume, we have bass. I use it with a boutique 4x10. It cracks and pops once in a while. I don't use it anymore, if I were I'd have it gone through. Love the sound these amps project.
I was watching a great PBS documentary on Janis the other night and something popped up in the background. So I went and fetched this off you tube...
Great find Rob! That was a killer band she had there. And of course the 360 sounds fantastic.
Saw this the day it aired. One of the first times TV showed a whole band setup at a distance rather than closeups with zooming effects! They also were playing live! It also sounded good! All firsts.
That band was quite funky.
Considering this is 1970, the bass player (Brad Campbell) sounds very Jaco like. Ahead of his time.
I hope that one day soon with plenty of light, water and fertilizer my 146 will grow into a healthy fruit bearing 371.
