Mike Pope as a player....

[klaus486]

Here he is with Chick's Elektric Band.....I had no idea he was this caliber of a player! And the tone of that Fodera! Wow....

 

[JimmyM]

Mike's world class.

 

[jerry]

Yeah, I have a couple of his CD's, smokin' player!

 

[20db pad]

I've never quite figured out how one guy can be so gifted in so many areas. He does electronics design, the obvious bass thing, and his piano playing is stunning as well.

 

[LM Bass]

Mike has a new CD out!

Yeah, I am jealous of Mike Pope. I won't mince words. Plus he has the cool name, too. Darn it!

 

[Dave W]

Mmmm! Dave Weckl! One of my favorite drummers, and I don't particularly care for jazz.

How much of that whole thing was just improv? I assume there is a very loose structure they're working off of?

Mike is scary.
He played at the Epifani booth, right next to me at NAMM.
He designs his pre-amps, etc writes books too (I think.)

One of those guys that uses more than the 10% of the brain that most of us slog along on....

Mike is VERY scary!

Mike's also a monster upright player, with high-end comping & solo chops in all registers.

 

[AudioDwebe]

Man...

So what if he's got chops galore, uber talented in other areas, looks good and has a cool stache. At least I know how to wind strings on a tuning peg.

Here's another one from his Elektric band stint, great mix for the bass. Badass!
