SBL: Why Pino is the Goat

[Dr. Cheese]

I know this is SBL clickbait, but it really struck me how Pino rose to the top on two basses. Pino got far more out of studying harmony with Joe Hubbard than would have ever gotten buying basses. I know most of you here are older, but I love to share this message in case some young folks read this.

Thanks for the Joe Hubbard link. Brilliant video.

1.5 seconds of SBL and I can't bear it. Uffda.

The point about Pino's sense of time is spot on. Ian Allison is a great bassist, but didn't even come close to getting Pino's feel when he tried to play the main riff from Chicken Grease.

Some things can't be taught. Sometimes it can be caught. But often times, not. You're born with what you've got .

Hmmm, I just made that up . Writing this one down for future reference.

Rap may be in future, along with the bass.

Pino is certainly elite, but we can all improve our time. I think working on swing and walking has helped my time. A few weeks ago, I started practicing using the drum programs on my SBL app. Once, I started using them, my feel got better. It took me a minute, but what I realized that I was much too tense. I needed to breathe and relax. This has really taken a lot of the rushing out of my playing. I honestly thought that my age, I was doomed to have mediocre time, but now I see how I can improve.

Joe Hubbard is great. He comes from Charlie Banacos, like Jeff Berlin did. So much knowledge there.

I dig the SBL loops page for some of my practice time.
