Awesome!

Awesome!

Thanks Dreads.

It's a very humbling video. I've been playing bass for 40 years (mostly classic rock covers), but that jazz stuff is on a whole 'nother level.

That part where the trumpet player said "tune???....this is jazz!" just blew me away.

Maybe if I changed my name to "Clam" I might stand a better chance of comprehending this stuff.

Well I, uh what? :scowl:

 

[Downunderwonder]

Wow, you gotta have mad skills to play that bad but make it listenable and funny at the same time.

 

[Turxile]

Excellent stuff

The Dizzy Gillespie spoofer was scary . . .
Backing that up would have to be a paid gig . . .

A superb overview (....great!)

Very "spinal tap". This was funny. Right? LOLOL.

Yeah, that's a classic

I love how Mark King really got the maximum mileage out of his 'testimony'
