Marcello Giuliani - Bassist for Erik Truffaz

[markjazzbassist]

I love this guy. Great chops, feel, taste, Tone, and nice collection of basses

I've getting really diggin on a lot of Erik Truffaz's jams lately, and I really love the way Marcello plays the bass.

Anyone else wanna show some love?

no one's a truffaz fan?

 

[ugly_bassplayer]

Been a fan since the Dawn album.
Excellent music from a heavily Miles Davis influenced trumpeter.

Not really into his arab\berber jazz hybrid stuff.

 

[Vladimir Lungu]

yes, very sweet bass playing.

I saw this thread title and realized that the name was familiar. I have a remix that Erik did of an Amon Tobin song and it was amazing. Checked out that first video and i'm floooooooooooored. this is excellent stuff. Sick groove on that first jam. Bassist holding it down. He even gets that "oooo this groove is too sick" face @3:31. love it. thanks for bringing this to my attention. too funky.

nice! I had the cd's but I couldn't find anything in youtube! also surprising that Marcello is around! I hope they come to Mexico soon!

 

[woolysock]

Marcello's playing w Erik Truffaz is the bomb. Tight, punchy and with lots of space. Killer tone too. Love what he does with his Fender Jazz...

 

[arimurik]

I love him too. I only wish I could see him live

 

[kai_ski]

bumping an old thread, but I just discovered this guy and the Erik Truffaz Quartet on Youtube. can anybody suggest an album to start from?

here's a great vid of cello using his bob glaub

 

[Margus Alviste]

An amazing band and an amazing bass player! Thanks Cello!

 

[korybaugus]

Just discovered these guys las week! I really love their stuff. These bass playing amazing!

I would love some recommendations on discs to buy.

 

[cubanbass]

I only own and have heard Face-A-Face (Live). It's a great record, but I'd be curious about what others recommend.

 

[markjazzbassist]

start out with

bending new corners
or
the walk of the giant turtle

those are great records. i also recommend

arkhangelsk and in between.


just make sure you get the quartet, his other records are different bands and different music. if you like the marcello stuff you need the quartet. all the records i recommended are so.

 

[cubanbass]

Thanks Mark

 

[korybaugus]

Thanks Mark and cuban! I got walk of the giant turtles. There are some great tunes on that disc.
