OMG.. this woman can bring it

[jshinal]

Those horn breaks are giving me goosebumps. They're so tight I got claustrophobia.

Huh, I worked with Tim when he did a short stint scoring for the production co. I was engineering for at the time. Always cool to see heavy hitters from the past still slinging it out.

 

[Fender_Bender]

Well, I thought we were going to be seeing a female bass player here. I can remember seeing a lead singer/bassist on tv called Laura Love who had pretty good chops.

 

[StatesideRambler]

The music is great but I have to look away because of the super-caffeinated video editing.

 

[Smooth_bass88]

do they write their own music?

 

[cnltb]

Whilst I think that this cover(post#1) COMPLETELY misses the point of the song, I think is is well done, looking at it from a purely technical point of view.

 

[FenderB]

Fantastic, thanks for sharing.

 

[punchdrunk]

That's obviously Stephen King on keys, tho....

I think it's Gary Lunn on an Alien.

A friend in Nashville turned me on to the Smoking Section a while back. ALL of their videos..... heck, all of the PERFORMERS.... are just BA.

I saw Gary live with the EagleManiacs last time I was in Nashville. He just layed it down all night. I was glued to his playing. And he NAILED Pino fretless Henly bass lines. Just a skilled, solid, but soulful player.

Gary Lunn is awesome!

Thanks to this thread I've been listening to a bunch of their videos. Dare I say this one has some of the best bass I've found.

Old guy on bass...cool!

Old guy used to be a young guy...Some 80’s era Gary Lunn...

 

[inanimate_carb]

Music for adults played by adults. Well done!

 

[Frampton]

Nice arrangement

 

[SactoBass]

The music is great but I have to look away because of the super-caffeinated video editing.

Yeah, that over-hyped video editing ruined it for me too. That technique is typically employed to make something look more exciting than it really is.

And one other comment: that lady has a great singing voice, but why is she wearing sunglasses indoors? That looks ultra lame to me.

 

[Kentucky Ryan]

am i the only one that thinks this is total predictable cheesey music??

 

[Fat Freddy]

Possibly....

 

[MrMyopia]

You can definitely hear the Chaka influence in her voice. Now THAT woman could bring it!

 

[Ewo]

like this arrangement better than the original.

Day-um! This is _great_ stuff, da shizznit, def. Who says big band music is dead, eh?

 

[tubedude]

Old g

Old guy on bass...cool!

Old guy on everything! Tight.
Like a cross of Snarky Puppy and some old Grusin/Ritenour stuff from the early eighties.
A nod to Green Earring by Steely Dan early on in that tune.

 

[pcake]

she's a rockin' singer, for sure, but the entire band is perfection.
