I would love to see him in concert. The way he does more than "just play." He makes it look easy, too. :rotflmao:

Good - - but again, not my cup of tea. But still they are amazing together, huh?

No doubt he's fantastic, but that was *so* 80's! (Not my cup of tea.)

Quite by accident I happened onto this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhR04kmcSXU absolutely FELL in love with it! I love the chord progressions, the picking, the melody, the rhythm... gosh! So I came here to see if anything had been mentioned of him and found this thread. Now I'm...

My votes are Ray Brown and John Clayton but both are acoustic/upright.

I understand what you're saying... I'm just using a Peavy microbass amp - - nothing super spectacular. I prefer my dad's amp - - I'll have to ask him what it is. He can get that amp to make my electric *almost* sound acoustic - - I mean, not exactly - - but you know - - it's got that rich...

I don't play guitar, but ... I *loved* my dad's old Gibson - - I can't tell you the model or anything, but it was made in the 40's. He gave it to my brother who only barely "tinkers" with it - - but back in the day, dad sounded like Joe Pass on that thing. *sighs* I remember being a kid...

I'm not a huge beer person - - I prefer wines or harder stuff ;) Althouh I rarely drink anymore - - age has made it less fun to drink anymore. However, I have some Newcastle Honey Brown I like and recently tried Michelob Ultra Amber and really liked it.

Congrats! My electric is a Fender Precision II. I can't really answer your questions - - but I have one for you ... ...any thoughts of playing any jazz tunes on it and if so - - what songs? I'm currently listening to Ray Brown on "That's All." :)

Sounds like a steal! I'd love to see a pic!

Sorry - - guess I shouldn't believe everything I read, then. Oh well.

I'm looking for it right now on www.allofmp3.com You'd like it.

Wow!! That is totally cool!!! Thanks so much!!

Thanks. In looking at it in more detail, I think that might be a little over my price range, but I'm finding some really neat mystery games online - - I think I might get him something like that. I may go ahead with the Bill Evans CD, too. Are you familiar with "Waltz for Debbie"? It's a...

Thanks for the link, Tone... however, I don't think he'd really want that. He's got a great amp that gives a variety of sounds and with the style jazz he plays, a person really doesn't need too many different sounds -- just a few, going from rhythm to solo and back ... y'know? As for the...
