Does anyone know where to find a transcription of Wilton Felderās bass part on the studio Free Man in Paris? There are a ton of videos and transcriptions of Jaco live on the Shadows and Lights video but would love to see a transcription of the original. There is one video out there but the gentlemenās hands are out-of-camera and there is no transcription (nor is the bass isolated enough). Thanks for your time.
A heads up for any Zombies fans who didnāt knowā¦this documentary made the rounds of film festivals a couple years ago, but is just now going into wide releaseā¦
Chris White might not have gotten a lot of attention, and certainly wasnāt a flash player, but he was always good for some interesting lines. The irony for the band is that they had their biggest hit(āTime Of The Seasonā)only after they broke up. The Odyssey And Oracle album, which went on to be recognized as a masterpiece years later, wasnāt even going to be released in the U.S., but Al Kooper tirelessly campaigned for it.

Hey everyone .
Saw this one on my YouTube todayā¦ hadnāt seen it before but itās pretty tasty.
Always happy to see Duck Dunn, Steve Cropper and Booker T playing.
I have to say Will Lee is phenomenal on the cowbell.
Who said more cowbell?

Drummer Anton Fig went on to tour with the three later. Not that Al Jackson, Jr. could ever be truly replaced.
FYI...This was my response to a request received today, after not renewing my subscription to TB.
Yes, Paul, it is true that I have financially supported your site for many years. This support continued in spite of repeated attempts from you and your team to control "club" formations and activities by arbitrarily eliminating or moving these threads to remote places. I have also been banned from posting for several weeks because I complained.
Look at the threads I have created and the number of responses of support from your other members. This is all gone now.
It should not be a surprise to you that I have had enough.
To all of those who corresponded with and supported me over the years, I offer at heart-felt THANK YOU and happy bassing...

I will still pop in every now and then...I just can't justify giving those who run TB any money (as little as that might be). I also miss the GOF's Club, another strike against TB!

Just came across the Byrds Fillmore 1970 8 Miles High Jam. Holy bass and drums, batman!
Never was a Byrds fan. Until now. Never knew about Skip Batten. I'm a fan now.
Just image being at any or all of these crazy Fillmore gigs.
And because this cannot be linked enough:

Back in '70, I prolly could've played that long. Now? No.
Haha! Me neither.
In some of those shots, the bass neck barely moves a millimeter while heās playing those incredible lines. Must play with a super light touch. I must try that some day!
It's very cool to see that. Extended jams don't happen that often anymore. That being said, they're basically jamming on Em. I think the bass player could've been a little more adventurous. But, it's all about the groove and not showing off.... sometimes I forget that
This was the theme for the cricket coverage on the BBC. The choice was inspired by one of the tours by the West Indies where the crowd kept a rhythm going not dissimilar to the cowbell on Soul Limbo.
Buffalo Springfield's appearance in an episode of Mannix (1967). Bruce Palmer playing a nice pbass. Best shot at 4:51
I bet there's a ton of similar things like this from that era, that is a great find, and this sub is a perfect place for it
Here's Chris Dreja in the Beck/Page version of the Yardbirds from the movie "Blow Up" in 1966.
This version of Train Kept a Rollin was called Stroll On
THINKING OF YOU BABY - This song kind of sucks but what bass is he playing?
