Erykah Badu Live

i love erykah.....i have only heard a little bit of baduizm live...and im not sure if its Braylon Lacy or not....but braylon lacy is definately one of my favourite cats....check out badu on chappelles show..that was great

 

think its braylon lacy

he been on most of the erykah stuff. definately got the groove. hot player

 

It was Braylon, he's played with her since shortly after high school. I went to the same school as him and got to hear him play often in the jazz bands around school. (It was an all Arts school). He is a great guy, and was a monster player even then.

 

The bassist on that album was the fantabulous Hubert Eaves IV.

 

Correct! His dad is sort of famous too. He was 1/2 of the group D-Train f/ James 'D-Train' Williams.

 

Boom, Boom is what he does.

 

+1 Yeah, he knows how work that low B!!

 

I heard this album in a bar several years ago and went out and bought it the next day. It's been in regular rotation in my CD player ever since. The drummer and bassist are both top notch. I just wish she'd do another one.. I like her music but the Live album kills the studio albums.

 

Yes! This Album is realy great, It's one of my best I have!...I have many ...believe or not I have instrument (MTD535) from Hubert, he changed my bass playing and my bass sound... yes he knows what to do with fat strings...!!!

 

Yeah that album is the reason I got an MTD 535. Mine has the exact woods as Huberts.

 

Which are???

 

Body-Korina wood
Top-Spalted maple burl
Neck and fingerboard-Wenge

Beautiful!!!!

 

And he uses DR Low-Riders. The drummer is Poogie Bell who plays with Marcus Miller.

 

does anybody know on what amp/cabs hubert play?

he's sound is a mighty one

 

...and my cousin

 

This is seriously one of my all time favorites! "other side of the game" is just too smooth. Never knew who played on it though I only have a copy not the original disc. Good thread!
- Tom

 

then u must know what AMP does he use !?

 

Last I heard he was using a Mesa Big Block 750...

 

I just grabbed that disc on the recomendations here.
Very nice! (see heath- I listen and respect your opinion, we may disagree about Will Lee, but you made me pick this one up!)
My only complaint, and trust me it's minor, is most of the tunes are mid tempo and slower and not many except "Stay" are uptempo.
I can only take the sidestick on the snare for so long!!!
But it is a groovy ass disc-whew!!!
And Poogie Bell!! One of my fav drummers.
