My best "chops" were edited out I think on both instruments , so this is what remains. The producers wanted to keep it simple it seems. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zcP-F-s84g&context=C317414aADOEgsToPDskK9BJqC9aQgUHCYVgi8AOE- yogalembic Intermediate Member Username: yogalembic Post Number: 121 Registered: 5-2012 Posted on Saturday, July 07, 2012 - 6:26 pm:    Best "chops" editing notwithstanding, very nice job, man! The bass really moves it. And, ain't that what it's all about? sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 2550 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Saturday, July 07, 2012 - 6:36 pm:    Thanks ! lbpesq Senior Member Username: lbpesq Post Number: 5181 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Sunday, July 08, 2012 - 11:40 am:    Very cool video!

I never would have pegged you for a funk player, but you nailed it! sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 2553 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Monday, July 09, 2012 - 6:52 pm:    Thanks Rusty! . Well ____ I have been a Tower of Power fan since their start and Rocco Prestia has been one of my influences , so maybe it all rubs off ! On fretless Jaco and Mark Egan influenced me and of course Michael Manring . Phil Lesh and Jack Casady influences started me off when I was 15. I remember once when playing in a country band when the drummer and I "FUNKED UP " the country songs Rocco Prestia & David Garibalbi like at a gig and our "band leader frontman" "chewed us out" at a gig on stage just when the tavern owner came up to the stage and said " Well I never heard Country & Western played like that but don't stop because now they are jumping around like Jack Rabbits on the Dance floor and I am finally selling some Booze ! rustyg61 Senior Member Username: rustyg61 Post Number: 630 Registered: 2-2011 Posted on Monday, July 09, 2012 - 7:01 pm:    I played in an original band years ago & we had one country song & I put some "Disco Pops" in it to make it interesting! Funk definitely gets the crowd moving! Play That Funky Music White Boy has always been the secret weapon song for the dance floor in every band I have played it in. If no one is dancing & you play that tune, it will pack the floor! terryc Senior Member Username: terryc Post Number: 1904 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Tuesday, July 10, 2012 - 1:02 am:    Wolf, nothing wrong with finger style and as far as Rocco goes, he is one, if not the best! Being a Level 42 fan, I can nail a shed together very well on the bass, machine gun 16ths at 120 BPM or as fast as I can get LOL serialnumber12 Senior Member Username: serialnumber12 Post Number: 980 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Tuesday, July 10, 2012 - 4:52 am:    very creative video editing & that groove worked perfect with my morning pot of coffee! sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 2554 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Tuesday, July 10, 2012 - 4:20 pm:    Thanks Barnes , ____ In fact, I think I was drinking some good coffee during the recording ! sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 2555 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Tuesday, July 10, 2012 - 4:33 pm:    Terry , yes 16ths , like 'What is Hip " / Tower of Power . I also was a Level 42 fan . I like the groove on " Lessons in Love".
