Pino . It would be great to talk about the bass lines in Mac Miller songs like Circles, Dang! or What's the use (there's a spectacular live version with Thundercut!).
Shout out to the John Mayer Trio. All 3 dudes doing the damn thing.
I'm no musician…but I would like your analysis of FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE by Tracy Chapman bass section…
can anyone tell me which flatwound string brand ian is using??
7:35 is such a fun groove, I haven't heard this song since I started playing bass! Thanks for tabbing it out 🙂
Ohh The Pbass tone is even better after 2 years of that video <3
Hey Up…Can You pick out some of “The Best” Pino lines on the “Paul Rogers Tribute to Muddy Waters Album Please!???…I’m pretty sure Pino is playing a lot of frettless 5 on this recording. Love it, have a listen?
I Love P Bass
Doing an Interview it Rebecca Johnson
And all a tenth is is… &@$&7?!;47 and then pphdsy12$)@7 but dont forget to add the ::?!$&8.
So, funny story. My mother was "obsessed" with those John Mayer albuns. I think i was about 11 or 12 and Pino´s basslines were the first i ever payed attention. I was already a guitar player but used to pay as much attention to Pino, truly a goat.
Bass solos and songs with 2 bass players? Lol. 6:13 soooo, then a guitar part? Love it, but you realize, you're highlighting everything that every non-bass-player hates about bass players, right?
I know I’m late but I would love to see a review of Mr Big’s first album (the one 1989 with Addicted to That Rush)
When an interview with Pino ????
Pino’s work with Gary Numan is killer. He’s a monster all over that album: I, Assassin. It’s the reason I decided to branch out from violin and pick up a bass guitar. I’d love to see a breakdown of his work on it.
Luv Ian… a true talented bassplayer with passion….!!
Pino is so ABSOLUTELY tasteful!! His lines and licks not only support the song but provide so much soul, melody and swing.
that goat tho ????
Okay-if you insist-Danny Wilson on tune 88 (Jeff Lorber). Just sayin. Cheers.
What about Mike Watt from The Minutemen?
How about doing a Tool album?
Rattus Norvegicus-The Stranglers. JJ Burnel was consistantly voted best bass player in pols over the next few years and has influenced so many players since but has been criminally ignored by the wider bass playing community.
So good.
Why do you write the bass clef on a four line fretboard diagram??
I know I'm a year late, but any chance of getting one of these kinds of videos on Rinus Gerritsen (Golden Earring). Many of the deeper cuts have a lot of neat sounding, but probably simple things going on that just make the song work (like in Quiet Eyes)
The most impressive thing, to me, about that album is that, for all the technical mastery they all possess, there is not a misplaced or ego driven note on the entire album.
Amazing video ! ❤
The fact that this doesn’t say Pino/D’Angelo is a disgrace.
Master Pino is amazing! Mister Palladino's playing is always super spot on, simple and complex at the same time. What a great player!
So amazing! Pino is a friggin genius!
So, just a practical question – what software do you guys use for that notation? I’ve seen Scott use it on an iPad I think?
I would love an analysis of Tal Walkenfield’s bass playing on Because We Ended as Lovers in the Live at Ronnie’s Jeff Beck album.
It’s awesome and inspiring.
Pino’s playing on The Secret of Association by Paul Young from 1985 is a masterclass of complex and virtuoso bass playing. Check it out!
Well, the run up to the high F# on a D maybe a great move in itself, but in my nerdy ears the F# sharp is conflicting with the G of John Mayers suspended D chord. The result I guess is that most listereners chose to understand the chord to be whatever just recently came into the picture (like in a movie), but there are at least two moving parts here competing for our ears and brains attention. Loved Paladino ever since Paul Young (I was about 16-17 then), and enjoyed dicovering him going other places to other great artists like D'Angelo. Felt like a vindication, though I clearly did not "discover" him by my ownl little pompous self. I saw this YouTube channel pull up so many great examples of combinations of more restrained playing with exiting small well placed runs (but this was in my honest opininion not the best, and rubbed me the wrong way).
Ian Allison thank you so much for this. I’ve listened to all of the songs so many times – the live and studio versions. And man I didn’t know so many things you pointed out which make me love all the songs even more.
Also I absolutely love your energy. It’s so obvious you love what you do here and your emotions are so contagious. Good on you!
Scott Invite the great Pino please
Willie is one of my all time favs. Check his playing on Wynona's Chain Reaction. Yeah, a Wynonna tune. Trust me.
As a guitar player I just love Mayer's guitar playing so much, but I also really love that every other part besides the guitar is incredibly interesting too. I mainly focus on his guitar and the playing of DRH, Isaiah Sharkey or Robbie McIntosh. But also very much the other band members like Pino and Steve Jordan, or JJ Johnson, Bob Reynolds, Steve Ferrone or Greg Fillinganes. John has had so many legends in his band who worked with the most legendary musicians! Even his old guitartech, Rene Martinez, is an absolute legend!
Pino's magnum opus is the bassline on "Everytime You Go Away." It's basically another lead vocal.
Thanks for this, I very much enjoyed it and will take lots from your well delivered insights. I've been playing around with electric bass since 1980 and when I heard Pino on Continuum it knocked me sideways for the reason you mention Ian, the soulful and often funkin supportive core topped with the slick and melodic fills, just breath taking at times. When is SBL having Pino in for a chat? ????????
Did Scott change his voice and accent??
monster man
what he does on gravity is clever , playing the longer notes as you mentioned, leaving them to play. what this means is on the 3rd verse right at the bigging he does cut/mute the bass just before the first snare of the verse and it works so well. if he had muted the bass like that everytime before the snare then it owuld leave not chance for that special moment . clever songmanship
That “Gravity” lick was possibly the sexist thing I have heard in a while! Got shivers on that one!!
