The Yorkshire Hobbit? LOL!!!!
If you sand the edges round, that could be something special….Tom
Jaco didn’t use a pick.
Trains. Yehhhhhhh…..
Ok. In all seriousness. This kid is the best bassist I’ve seen on YouTube. Not the most widdly widdly tappety tapetty, no. Yawn. I imagine Sapko could do all that if he wanted, maybe with a short scale. (Sorry, cheap short person joke).
But he just has incredible feel as we said in the 80s. Groove, pocket. Timing. Taste. Whatever.
Magnificent. I’ve seen people develop feel through experience but it’s rare. I suspect they always had it but their technique didn’t allow them to show it. No, and I’m sure this isn’t universal, but feel is, in my experience, a bit of a talent thing. As in you have it or you don’t. But I have seen people with very little work well with poor materials, so all is not lost. And most people have it, enough of it, somewhere. Just not as much as the Yorkshire Little Ripper here.
I’ve been in one band with a bassist who had a similar touch and it was heaven to have him take my rather pedestrian bass lines (at the time, I’ve improved, largely thanks to learning from Tony) and turn those lines into magic. Often he barely changed the notes I’d written but his feel was so good and the small fills and tweaks he’d make were an object lesson in the meaning of bass.
Young Danny here gives me the same feeling when he plays. It makes me want to play in a band again, even though I know maybe 75% of bands don’t click. That doesn’t mean only 25% of bands are any good, rather there’s a special something when you get the right combo and it’s electrifying. Bass playing with feel as good as Sapko’s is a definite prerequisite.
Although I’ve only been in one band with a bassist that good, I’ve recorded a few after I moved from musician to record company engineer in 1988. I’ve been lucky and although I play a few instruments, mostly fairly badly, my love of bass has informed everything I play and I strive for groove over everything else. I’d be more than satisfied to even come close to the level of this guy.
Fuckin cringe
That was really good! Adding the local guy was funny as well. Might need to import some of those picks.
Thank you for making these videos.
Cheers
I wish at least 1 day of my week had fun adventures like this????
One of the most underrated channels ????
The only happy beatle and he plays the BEHS‼️
But you're a much better BEHS PLAYER‼️‼️????????????
Ahh, the English countryside. Someplace I’d love to visit.
Dude, You are hilarious and a great behs player. That is a rare combination of talents. I have never used a pick when I play behs, But I think I'm gonna give it a go. Here in South Florida we have a high speed rail line known as "Brightline". About once a month some genius thinks they can cross in front of a train doing 120 miles an hour and the results are predictable. Lots of carnage. I being a person of below average intelligence, will attempt to place an old penny on the tracks without trying out for a Darwin Award. Wish me luck.
Beautiful county side lad! ????
Love this style of video my man!
Also, if you want the best bass tone to study check out Bryan from the Bouncing Souls.
Song: Bouncing Souls – Manthem.
LEGENDARY punk tone.
Not sure if you've done this one already!
I disagree. That isn't a bass, it's a guitar with two missing strings KAPPA
this man's jacket is perhaps the most punk thing i have ever seen
Check out how good my new pick sounds on a Rickenbacker – of course it sounds better than my mexifender
Yes! All the sheep are into paintball
You have got me into behs.
Hey Danny… you at the Leeds Bradford guitar show next week?
Last of the Summer Wine theme! Yes!
Surely that’s “sorreh”
Hey what about Byron Miller’s bass sound?
