WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

Sitting here with my old Martin D-18 and a cup of coffee this morning... channeling Norman.

This one just popped into my head this morning.

John Entwistle - Apron Strings

[rv_bass]

10/11/83 St. Stephen... the place went nuts

[cozmik_cowboy]

One of my favorite Winehouse songs and a bass line that just speaks to me personally.

She was so gifted. And yes, that bassline is SLINKY. I wonder who played it?

According to the "personnel" listing on Wikipedia, "Paul O'Duffy – arrangements, bass, vibes, rhythm (track eight) ".

Peter

[edwardofhuncote]

I read that too, but the name didn't ring any bells. Great player. Apparently, of several disciplines.

Thanks for the Norman Blake!

Thanks for the Norman Blake!

Baker & Honeycutt are thinking about a "Porch, Vol. 2"... that one may make the cut. 

[edwardofhuncote]

It's something between an Irish jig, and a Baroque era string quartet piece.

The whole thing builds all the way through, then 3 minutes in, the fiddle and bass play a duet of counterpoint that is absolutely mindboggling. The guitar and I'm pretty sure the other instrument is a bouzouki or octave mandolin, keep a perfect rhythm underneath the thing.

I might be broken today...

Thanks for the Entwistle and YES pauldo! I've been digging this young Dutch band lately. Golden Caves

[edwardofhuncote]

Still have my copy of the Chess soundtrack... on cassette tape!  Thanks for the reminder. 

FWIW, I've been listening to pop-country radio lately... every so often I'll tune in for a couple weeks to see what's happening, and sometimes I'm pleasantly surprised by something.

[David Houck]

Thanks for the St. Stephen!

From another thread;

I'm about four days behind in this thread.  But that's quite a bit better than my household chore list.
