Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

[bassboysam]

I'm addicted to Hot Lunch right now.

I mean, look at these guys. I got new headphones recently and can suddenly hear Felix's lines way better. And I thought his lines were cool already!

 

[Squanch72]

Have I mentioned how much I love Mountain recently? Because I fvcking love Mountain. Felix Pappalardi was a beast, and Corky Laing was burly on those toms and bass drums.

There's a band name right there...
Love Mountain

Fvck I totally missed out on the Bongripper LP. I didn't even know it was for sale yet.

That was the 1st pressing we did on a preorder a few months ago.

We have a 2nd pressing on the way, it'll be available once we've shipped the 1st pressing all out.

I'll be sure to let you dudes all know when that'll happen. Hopefully sometime in September.

It's good to see Matt looking healthy again. Envy you guys having the opportunity to see Sleep play.

Strange to care so much about your reviews of a strap but I've hit a road block buying a couple more. I need one though that has a little more taper on it to wrap under the Kramer Lumi. Since someone hacked the horn up (before I picked it up) It can't go back on the end and right now is on the bottom with a shortened screw. I'm hesitant to blow another hole and have the strap lock rear facing. Need a wide strap to battle neck dive and over all weight. But after picking up the ATK I'm not looking as hard for such things.

I'm happy with this strap.

Rode bikes down from San Francisco to Morro Bay today. Caught a decent cover band in town here, triple threat.

Unless were friends with you I don't think we can see them, but I was there so...

 

[bassboysam]

OK I had always heard that Zeppelin basically just ripped off other people's songs, but I never realized it was blatant and widespread.




I don't own a single Zep album and I don't i've ever listened to an entire song, just never and never will be my thing...

 

[dozicusmaximus]

I like Zep. But yeah... It's blues. All those dudes have been ripping each other off since it started. I'm not defending them or anything.
My favorite is the Stairway rip.

edit: I guess it was more than I thought too. Jeez. The Beatles covered a ton of stuff. But they gave credit, I think.

Not condoning, but it was a different time back then.
The Beatles covered hot pop songs. Led zeppelin was covering old or dead black mens music that few people knew.

Jack White does similar, but he gives credit, it's under writer of said songs. But even then it's kinda funny.

I think of it kinda like reggae riddims, these blues songs have been covered, rearranged, transformed for decades.

While their is an original track out there, it's become a blues staple to be trampled on and reworded forever.

And I really like the Beatles and led zeppelin (not everything).

My guitarist just scored a 1979 Marshall JMP loaded up with 6550's for a great price.

Sounded awesome when he was testing it out. Real excited to hear it at our next practice.

But now it's time to pack records.

 

[dozicusmaximus]

I looked up the Beatles songs. I could have sworn they covered some old blues stuff... Guess not.
Either way, I need to listen to some late 60's Beatles today.

JMPs are tasty, I don't recall what speakers does your guy prefer?

 

[Ron Now]

He's got 2 emperor 6x12's one loaded with gws vintage 30 copies and one with 80 watt celestions he prefers the sound of the 80 watt speakered cab.
