no doubt. i probably should have added a wink after the 'you're fuckin pushin it' comment. it was meant as a joke and seemed harmless after a few beers. i really should stop that.
Of course i know rock is a legend on this board. i read every post he writes on here. So when he said 'any version' of walk on by, i threw out the smith & mighty tune knowing he's not a drum machine guy. And knowing the general anti-UK / pro-US stance on here i thought i'd stir the pot about the whole bristol scene being majorly important.. which it is.
so yeah - massive fail. apologies rock.
my post quota is up, i'll be back talking shit next paddys day. bet you cant wait.
Sl??n.
Individual moments that spring to mind today........
The final thirty seconds of I Forgot To Be Your Lover
The Jackson sample breakdown in By The Time I Get To Arizona
Biggie's hiccup in The What
The encores in the two final tour versions of Try A Little Tenderness
The first minute or so of Love's The Red Telephone
2.40 onwards in Marvin's Time To Get It Together
Z-Ro singing in The Rain
The chords into the "Well, well well well, hello baby" at the beginning of UGK's One Day
The black suit, funer-al into the chorus part of Frank Ocean's Swim good
Tony Williams or Elvin Jones drumming on anything, ever.
Herbie Hancock playing on other people's shit.
Anyone who really knows how to twerk a Hammond B3, which I've come to find is just as difficult and subtle an art as actually being able to play.
Cronchy Wurlitzer piano with the tremolo on.
Pretty much all Rhodes, possible exception for the real tinny twinkletoes "Angela" variant.
George Duke's solos with Frank Zappa.
Anyone who kills that kind of soul-jazz shuffle that's a bit like a quieter, more cymbal-focused blues shuffle. You hear it a lot on Jimmy Smith/Charles Earland/etc etc LPs. Dudes like Art Blakey.
Willie Col??n & Ruben Blades, Siembra.
Timbaleros who can keep up the cascar?? on the shell.
A big stonkin' Fender P-bass tone.
Nick Cave, "Stranger than Kindness."
Supersilent, "6.1."
All Miles, In a Silent Way thru Pangaea and Agharta.
Miroslav Vitous -- his playing, not necessarily the LPs, tho Mountain in the Clouds is dope.
