- It’s All About The Bass (Part 5)
Into The Woods With Stewart Strauss is a listener supported podcast. I thank you for your patronage, by liking and subscribing. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
On this episode of #ITWWSS we’re going to celebrate Black Music Month, and hear more from some of the best bassists to ever hold an upright, fretless or fretted bass! There will be plenty of great vocals, percussion, drums, horns, guitars, keyboards, instrumentals, live and studio tracks, and (did I mention) bassists?
You’ll hear from Chaka Khan and Rufus, Bill Withers, Miles Davis, Jaco Pastorius, Joni Mitchell, Phoebe Snow with the New York Rock and Soul Revue, Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, The Jackson 5, Michael Jackson, Stanley Clarke, and Tower Of Power (TOP)
The emphasis is on the musicians we’ve heard our whole lives, but maybe didn’t know who these most accomplished players were. As long as the music moves you, there isn’t much more to know, unless you feel like taking a little deeper dive.
Some of the bassists you’ll hear in the episode are…
Dennis Belfield, Jerry Knight, Paul Chambers, Jaco Pastorius, Larry Klein, Lincoln Schleifer, James Jamerson, Wilton Felder, Louis Johnson, Stanley Clarke, and Frances “Rocco” Prestia,
The rest of the bands are powerhouse musicians too. Herbie Hancock, David Sanborn, Larry Carlton, Drew Zing, Donald Fagen, Boz Scaggs, Michael McDonald, Bill Evans, Cannonball Adderley, John Coltrane, Jimmy Cobb, Narada Michael Walden, The Brecker Brothers, Sam and Dave, Vinnie Colaiuta, Michael Landau, Billy Cobham, Darren Johnson, Najee, David Garibaldi, Lenny Williams, Emilio Castillo, Bruce Conte, Mic Gillette, Stephen “Doc” Krupka, Lenny Pickett, Greg Adams, Chester Thompson, and many more.
Please check out live performances of my original music, as well as cover songs, skits, and a new segment where I tell stories about meeting various icons of the entertainment industry, to promote this very podcast. All on the Sonny Michaels Show, June edition. Always available on YouTube. There’s lots of great talent on the show, including a live performance from Acoustic Alchemy. I performed Bob Dylan’s Tangled Up In Blue. Please tune in when the spirit moves you.
Cheers!
