Thanks!

No problem.

This is a great example for the Groove in today's music thread. I definitely see the Marcus Fender tone, and some Stanley Clarke influence in the choice of notes as well, still though he does indeed do his own thing. Very cool stuff!!

Jake really enjoyed interviewing Doug!
Damien was really impressed with his CD!

I have a solo album by Jake, he sure can funk it up too! Some talented writers over there on that magazine.

sorry for the slight de-rail.

After listen to all these tracks, I'm pretty sure I have an erection.
...O wait. That's just my keys.

He is great! Even if the bass is too far forward in the mix for it to be "music".

A Groove is a Terrible Thing to Waste!

Now I see where Marcus Miller got his influence!! Thanks a lot, this is pure gold.

It looks like Byron Miller has a Celinder. KJung would be pleased!

Byron is another one of those cats that have been killing for a very long time!

Jo Sallins.

holy crap! I haven't heard that name in 15 years. I used to see his gig on piccolo bass and piano in western Mass back in the early '90's. Haven't heard his name since. That is really cool.

Oh yeah

Well, I'm okay with Victa doing what he does! But the million + followers need to tone it down a bit, IMO! I haven't heard many doing the Marcus thing other than Peter Muller. Oskar Cartaya does a latin version of Marcus (I'm kidding, Oskar does have his own thing going but the Fender bass sound is ever present in his voice).

I had the pleasure of watching both Doug Johns and Oscar Cartaya play this weekend at The Baked Potato in Studio City and at the Pasadena Bass Day event. Both great individuals, very friendly and down to earth.

Old thread back to life!!!! I just picked up both of Doug John's CD's and they are both smokin'. I've have pretty much stayed away from the "bass" disks for quite some time now, but hit up itunes to see if there was anything interesting out there to me. The answer was no until I heard this guy. Love the variety in the music and the skill level this kat has. Oh, and I would rather listen to that Pedulla any day over say...Marcus' Fender.
