Yes I understand that the Bass started as 4 strings but now a days the options are limitless……sometimes I wonder “If Jaco or Jamerson was still alive would they experiment a bit? while playing with 4 strings?”
Yeah Hadrien is great… but u can’t deny Gwizdala phrases and Erskine amazing groove, i respect Hadrien alot but sometimes his stuff isn’t groovin’ for me, but the guy can play pretty good. That is just my opinion.
Why did Hadrien Feraud only get 35 seconds? He’s the only innovtive bassist in the video. The rest is the usual shucking I’ve heard 1ooo’s of times. Walk into any music store and you’ll hear guys playing like that. I’m not sayin’ these guys aren’t good, it’s just Hadrien is much more advanced/
The man is just insane beyond wordz…Absolute best bass player alive…The chords…The melody…The cleanliness…The accuracy…The HYPER! speed…Phenomenal musician…His musicianship is evn beyond his playing!
No, Im saying this video is to present bassists of a higher level than most can imagine. People expect it to be a Gospel video, and according to the producer, its not.
Its supposed to be the meeting grounds for the best gospel, fusion, and jazz bassists out there.
I feel though that you guys are taking alot from some of the guys on here like justin raines and robert bubby lewis who actually do play for gospel artists. They are not legends but they are gospel bassists.
You’re right, it isn’t a gospel DVD. Although, I think most gospel musicians who anticipated the release of the video…wanted to see their heroes in gospel collaborate with their heroes in jazz. Those 2 genres are 2 complete different worlds. When you think of Gospel bass greats..you do think of cats like Andrew Gouche, but then you also think about Joel Smith, Reggie young, Sharay Reed, Tony Russell ..etc. These are veterans of the game. My statement wasn’t meant to be perceived as judgmental.
They describe the video as the best cats of jazz and gospel style playing. I think Gospel Chops isn’t totally about Gospel music, just killer players in which a lot of Gospel players are. Some of the dudes on here probably aren’t even religious!
there is no doubt that all of these guys are amazing bass players, but the one guy that needs to be on here is not on here so I have one question…WHERE THE FUCK IS REGGIE YOUNG? Im very disappointed that you left him out.
