Depends on which CD you're talking about. On the two CD set "pages of life: verses 1&2" Terrence Palmer did the live concert work and Fred did the studio work. (Terrence also is the one playing the Peavey Cirrus in the DVD recording of the concert. There's an earlier VHS concert where Terrence is playing a Tobias.)

CORRECTION. Terrence is playing the Tobias on the "pages of life: verses 1&2" CD and the VHS videotape of the concert at which the live portion of the CD set was filmed. The DVD where Terrence is playing the Peavey Cirrus is the DVD for "Purpose By Design". Maurice joined RFC during the tour but did not appear on a DVD until the "speak those things: POL 3" album. Fred did all the bass work in the studio for that CD.

Maurice Fitsgerald came along on the "Purpose By Design" tour. I think Fred and Terrence did the studio work and Maurice did the tour and the DVD. As corrected above, Terrence Palmer is on the "Purpose By Design" concert DVD.

ADDITION: Fred played on all the selections on the "Purpose By Design" except for "Thank You Lord", "When You Praise", "Jesus Be A Fence" (smokin' old school gospel bass-line) and "You Are The Living Word". Terrence played on those on the CD and played throughout the concert DVD.

Terrence is also the bassist on a lot of Isreal & The New Breed material. If you like Fred & RFC, you oughta check out Isreal & The New Breed. Look for "It's A New Season". I have an Isreal & The New Breed DVD where the bassist is playing a Tobias. I'm fairly certain that it's Terrence playing the Tobias he played in the first Fred Hammond video. I haven't finished watching it yet, so I haven't peeped the credits.

Peace,

James

Yes that is Terrance. I saw them 2 months ago at Dennis Leonard's church in Colorado. They were there for the church anniversary and I was there on a business trip. Talk about perfect timing. I have been following Terrance, Fred, and Maurice. I love all three players styles and Fred really knows how to play a unique groove.

Maurice Fitzgerald is playing the Peavey Cirrus 5 Bubinga/Walnut on the Purpose By Design DVD, not Terrence Palmer.


A Groove is a Terrible Thing to Waste! :cool:

The "B" player for Israel's band uses an MTD - and being TP's backup is no shameful position to be in. TP also plays a custom made 5, and last I knew was using an SM900 and GoliathIII cabs (same rig Andrew Gouche' used to use).

Fred, TP, and Maurice are all phenomenal players. To cop that sound you can't go wrong with a Tobias or MTD and an SWR rig.

Link Removed - his custom Pavel Aryel single cut is in one of the pictures on the home page.

I think Maurice is now playing on Wyn Basses, From the clips I've seen they are some serious axes that deserve some serious attention. Wait time right now is just about forever, I think it's a one man shop. They sound awesome though. Search for Maurice on youtube. There is a clip of him playing one. I speced out a bass with Wyn and it came in around $3800. But these were my choices. He has less expensive basses as well.
