I'm a new member, so greetings for starters! :)

(I don't really know in which forum was this subjectable, so I decided to hit the misc.)

Anyway, I was thinking about bass videos, do you guys know any place where I could find some bass/groove videos, mainly groove, like slap/pop thingys :)

I've been playing bass about 10 years, and I'm 19 years old, but only lately I've gotten into the groove and funk side.

So I was thinking, if you could help me with some videos. Or some good "starter" kind of lesson page for funk & groove bass-screwing.

PERFECT!!! I'd also like to add the standing in the shadows of motown book(with accompanying cds) for THE masterclass in groove playing . Every bassist should have this as a reference imo.


cheers

A great bass player MAKES a great vocal happen while a mediocre one limits the singer. The bass player is like a pilot keeping the ship away from the rocks. It doesn't draw attention to its self but it's a great big pain when there's nothing wrong with a bass but nothing right about it either".

Bob Ohlsson, former Motown 'super' engineer.....the man responsible for THAT sound.

Bob Ohlsson posts pretty often on the rec.audio.pro newsgroup. Pretty cool, huh?
