You, Mr. Brown, (and your little brother!) are the best! Thanks for sharing your experience with us, and inspiring everyone with your voice on the instrument!
I fucking love you guys so much! Please don't ever stop doing these videos. There will be a huge hole in my life without them, like losing a beloved family member.
Yes ans please continue in this constellation, as Scott & Ian. You’re trying other formats in the last time but they’re not working for me. This is really funny, informative, musical…
I’m a metal bassist who LOVES jazz. I believe my love of jazz has been instrumental in developing my own style. Thank you for showing these legends some love and sharing them with us
I met Rich Brown at one of the Bass Shows (the snowy one in London) and he is one of the sweetest, loveliest, most humble and down to earth people I've ever met. He's also one of the greatest players of all time. His phrasing, articulation, sense of melody, harmony, groove, feel, and tone, are about as good as they get. He's also a brilliant teacher and educational content creator, and has an amazing speaking voice which is as rich (pun intended) as his tone.
Love a bass solo lol. Stanley Clarke doesn't get enough love on your channel. He'd be part of every bass conversation for me but he rarely gets a mention when you're talking about 'the greats'. Love your channel though
I took a lesson from Gary Willis in the 90s. He talked about having a light touch, it gives you a different sound, but it also gives you a greater dynamic range. You can always play softer, but if you’re really digging in, there’s nowhere to go if you want to get louder.
I've found that when someone says you shouldn't play bass, or a certain genre, with a pick, you can usually safely ignore anything else they have to say.
Rest aside that one can choose the pick not because its sonic propierties but also a personal handicap. Charles Benavent is a flamenco jazz fusion virtuoso who plays with Paco de Lucia, he plays with a pick because he suffered an accident on his fingers and this way works for him.
I like a good bass solo, but i'm much much more about in the pocket. I love it when a bassplayer and a drummer are completly locked in the pocket Like Gadd and Paladino (with Stevie Wonder) or Nick Campbell and Abe Laboriel jr (with Scary Pockets) I'll die for that. Really love this episode of the Scott and Ian show btw, it's hilarious Please keep on making this awesome CZcams content please, love you crazy bass nerds!
Dang it this podcast was absolutely fantastic! You guys had me cracking up! When Scott said “I LOVE BASS SOLOS” it reminded me of the scene on SpongeBob when squidward admitted he loved crabby Patty’s and locked himself in the crabby patty vault lmao,
I would love a video on Ray Shulman of Gentle Giant. Hes such an underrated and groovy bassists. Check out Free Hand for pure prog perfection. Every bit as good as Chris Squire
For those who don't know, that's Alphonse Mouzon ripping it apart on drums accompanying Jaco. Looks like a clip from when they performed with trombonist Albert Mangelsdorff
Your discussion about Evan Marien leading a move up the neck with his ring finger instead of his middle finger helped me realise why, for the last 20 years, people have told me my playing looks like spider fingers.
Have you got a bass? If not join in the fun. I play guitar too but to me, bass is so much more.... satisfying. And slapping a bass is as much fun as you can have with strings.
The analogy with white noise describes so well what happens to me when I hear something like that. Too much notes of musician music. An the german Kartoffel loved the „Zeitgeist“.
Watching you guys makes me realise i am normal !!!! There are other crazy bass fanatics out there, So much love for the bass chemistry here you have, please never stop these and also do more of the tracks with no bass that someone has to write parts too !!! ABSOLUTLY LOVE IT
I will admit I’ve been avoiding the jazz subject videos but now I’m glad I clicked because these bass solos are really beautiful sounding even tho it’s not my thing. I am really considering the course just for the education of it. I would love to be able to play so effectively even if it’s not my preferred genre. Great video, love the bass solo geekery.
I love bass solos. Big grunge fan and tribel tech :-) My favorite bass solo is from Tal Wilkenfeld when she plays with Jeff Beck live at ronnies during Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers. not just the solo, but the interaction/response from Jeff and the audience. Magic!
You two never cease to leave me in tears of BOTH laughter and joy! I love your bass nerdery, I don't care about going into the rabbit holes you discovered! One more thing, Evan's playing on Jaco's "Havona" is Quintessence!
when reacting to Jaco, you need use 'Port of Entry (live)' from night passage, now that is something to rave about. and from an accompanying pov, refuge of the roads from Hejira - sublime. in fact those two albums in my opinion are peak Jaco.
There's no Y.T. channel that conveys laughter to the audience quite like yours. It's all about the bass (perfect theme song for you guys), but it's also about sheer joy, and thank you for it!
Billy Gould is known for his bass playing skills and here are some of his greatest bass lines ¹: - *We Care A Lot*: This is one of Billy Gould's most popular bass lines and is considered a classic. - *Epic*: This bass line is a great example of Billy Gould's pick playing and can be easily mistaken for slapping. - *Falling To Pieces Intro*: This bass line is a great example of Billy Gould's fingerstyle playing and has a very catchy melody. - *Falling To Pieces Solo*: This bass line is a great example of Billy Gould's slap playing and has a very funky and upbeat melody. - *Everything’s Ruined*: This bass line is a great example of Billy Gould's ability to play complex and intricate melodies. - *Anne’s Song*: This bass line is a great example of Billy Gould's ability to play beautiful and melodic bass lines. - *Underwater Love*: This bass line is a great example of Billy Gould's ability to play funky and upbeat bass lines.
18:07 he is amazing. he does a lot of repeating the same notes in different strings in a pattern run. very much like some of the famous jaco licks. this is a short scale bass too.
Scott, guess what? I just bought a short scale bass.... and put PICCOLO strings on it!!! So essentially I have 4 string bass and guitar in one and it's amaaaazing
Yeah, every time I listen to one of their podcasts I want to run out and buy a reverb pedal. I don't know if reverb works so well on bass for traditional bass lines, but it sounds amazing if you're playing a solo high up on the neck. I also love when Ian uses spring reverb and a pick with bass. Gives it that retro tic tac bass feel.
I havent played bass in 20 years following the demise of my school band. But I love the SBL channel, partly because the music theory stuff is really accessible but also because it's a great way in to jazz artists I've not heard of. Since watching this ive gone and listened to Evan Marien's latest album Elysian. So good! Thanks guys
With the bass in the jaco clip, it’s funny, it could of only been around 14 years old at that point if it was built in 62’ and it’s just so worn, the back of neck especially. Must of been played so much. What a monster he was
I wanted to point out that Evan Marian’s approach to the hexatonic removes the 4 and adds the 7, not a pentatonic with an added 4 as you mention on the breakdown of his style. Not to be a know it all but wanted to mention that since it adds to the unique sound he has!! He’s an incredible player and an incredible person as well!!
I love a good bass solo. Maybe the best one I ever took in person was when I was in my high school jazz combo and I was playing an '80s Ibanez that I made into a fretless. I don't know if the audience loved it, but my drummer said it melted him in a good way and that was good enough for me. Besides that I'm really starting to enjoy Janek's style and I would like to start moving my playing in that direction.
Janek have a new bass with a double "reverse" P Bass pickups setup actually .. that thing sounds amazing. I know there is a ton of monster bass players, but I m always surprised and a bit saddened that so many people overlook an incredible musician who lives near me and who has long accompanied Jaco Pastorius. He is an absolutely amazing soloist! Please go and give a listen to Mr. Michel hatzigeorgiou, my friends. Absolute MONSTER, superbe technique and a great great musicality. Thanks again for your super vids, btw
exactly!!! and in the meantime, also check the jazz standard playing plectrum monster on a jazz bass: Benoit Vanderstraeten!!! So good!!! (played with Didier Lockwood!)
@@KrisDuerinckx True, and he s a very respected teacher here in BE. There is so much talented musicians here and there... But, frankly, I do not know if you agree but Hatzi is a very very different breed. But of course, I love all of these amazing bassists you know.
As a child of the 90's (born in 1978 like some other fine bass players) we went through the anti shred. Whilst we grew up with Vai & Satch, Gilbert & Sheehan, the grunge movement almost killed off that shred thing. Do'nt get me wrong, I went to see Mr Big last month and fugging loved it but I'm personally not a shredder and because of that, less bothered about it. Show me the groove man!
Hey guys, what about an interview with Stuart Zender? Scott, you mentioned how big a deal he was to UK players when the first three Jamiroquai albums came out. It’d be great to delve into his playing and gear in depth.
Ian, did you play on the Verskotzi track "I Don't Believe in Everything...But I Do!"? I just pulled up his music on Spotify and was listening to the latest album and that really jumped out to me as your playing. The use of drive sounded "Ian-ish," as well as the line itself. Love your stuff with Jeremy Messersmith, btw.
I love bass solos. These videos are inspiring me to want to pick-up my bass again. There has been a hiatus with work and family. I had started the technique accelerator course a couple years ago but I think the amp may need some maintenance. Perhaps my Father's Day gift will be to restore my Ampeg head.
Great video. I'm firmly in the Chris Squire camp. His playing - to me - is the perfect cross between melody and rhythm. No one plays like him. If I would need to choose someone from the Jazz camp, it would be Helmut Hattler, whose style was very influencing to me. Not that I'm nearly as good as any one of them. ;)
Made me laugh more than anything you’ve put out before. But, more importantly, I’m with Scott. Spent many an hour in my youth in bedrooms playing tapes/vinyl (e.g. ECM label) most people didn’t get (because they preferred Rush, etc.)
My Gary Willis VHS tape is pretty worn from watching it over and over and over. Great to see Steve Swallow included. His timing and style is so unique I’d love to see Bill Frisell (gtr) and Steve Swallow collab on something. You could easily do a dozen more videos of this topic. Would love to see your commentary on Percy Jones, specifically his playing on his Bass Exploration instructional video. For non-bass solos, Stu Hamm does some amazing fusion stuff with Gambale Hamm Smith. Some of Stu’s playing reminds me a little bit of Alan Holdsworth albums where the bass just moves and guides the band.
I bought a 30inch fretless and a 25inch fretted this week. The 25er is so freaking cool, it sounds WICKED. The 30 is my first fretless. It is really hard to choose wich to pick up 😁 Wich is a really nice problem to have.
These guys are great! So inspiring, so much to reach for. Jaco especially. I really can't say I understand the atonal stuff. But please, do a feature on Sam Wilkes. He plays with Louis Cole a lot, and he's just a gigantic monster young bass player. P.S. Short scale basses do look ridiculous on large people! Hell, I saw the late, great Leslie West and he even made his LP look tiny! Great show, though. It was Leslie West/The Ramones/Iggy Pop and I think that Iggy and the Ramones brought out a big cake to Leslie on stage because it was his birthday. It was a great, weird show.
Hello! Congratulations on the channel. Brazilian musician, Ed Motta, released an album with the same songs in Portuguese and English. Listen to Smile/Marta's bass line.Tell us what you found. 😁👍
I must say i don´t like bass solos but.... Pino Palladino Awesome Bass solo and groove - Manu Katche and Dominic Miller live at Montreux 1999.... Come on!
Please don't stop making jokes of short scales or whatever. I liked it very much. There is no overcooking! If I was in Live Class, I would have appeared with my shorty too. Just to extend that joke and laugh together! Both of you are doing great! Just keep on doing what you're doing! 👍
I'm not crying. There's just something in my eyes.
I love you guys. Thank you so SO much.🥹❤
Not a word said that wasn't true. It was probably an understatement.
You, Mr. Brown, (and your little brother!) are the best! Thanks for sharing your experience with us, and inspiring everyone with your voice on the instrument!
I fucking love you guys so much! Please don't ever stop doing these videos. There will be a huge hole in my life without them, like losing a beloved family member.

MR. Scott, thanks for bringing Ian to us. Best decision ever. You-re both cool and such great guys.
Cheers!!!
Absolutely agreed ❤
When did Ian actually join the team? Anybody?
@@dinomueller8461 not sure. I've been seeing him on the podcast for more than a year and a half now. But he's also a teacher for SBL.
@@jerryada Thanks man!
The moment Rich Brown and Larnell sync on that one hit during the bass solo... Purest magic! ✨✨

You guys are killing me. I feel like I'm hang'n with bass buds. It's educational, interesting and freak'n hysterical. the Best!!

Ian was ahead of the curve, man! Steve Swallow uses a pick. The middle school band leader showed his ignorance in more ways than one 😀
I've found that when someone says you shouldn't play bass, or a certain genre, with a pick, you can usually safely ignore anything else they have to say.
@@SO-ym3zs Damn straight!
Why leave such a valuable tool on the table?
Rest aside that one can choose the pick not because its sonic propierties but also a personal handicap. Charles Benavent is a flamenco jazz fusion virtuoso who plays with Paco de Lucia, he plays with a pick because he suffered an accident on his fingers and this way works for him.
@@SO-ym3zsyep….. away with those gatekeepers!!
Rich Brown is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good! Absolutely love (both of) his tone and feel...'Twice' gets me every time
He's an absolute monster player, and a great person to boot!

I LOVE BASS SOLOS‼️‼️ EVERY SONG SHOULD HAVE ONE‼️‼️
I’m just starting playing bass and have not heard some of these Jazz Legends before, thanks for the video.
I feel like John Patitucci should be included here. Check him out. He’s a beast.
He is, we've checked him out a lot!
Evan's hands are like a Praying-mantis the way they bend and strike. Another great video SBL Team....
I would love a video on Ray Shulman of Gentle Giant. Hes such an underrated and groovy bassists. Check out Free Hand for pure prog perfection. Every bit as good as Chris Squire
IAN your flannel game is 🔥 🔥
Alternative video title - ‘Is this the MOST bass solos EVER?!’
Love the vid, I learn so much from your conversations
For those who don't know, that's Alphonse Mouzon ripping it apart on drums accompanying Jaco. Looks like a clip from when they performed with trombonist Albert Mangelsdorff
I was wondering ... Man that's hectic beats!!!
Cheers
Ive been playing guitar for the last 16 years and you two are the reason why I want to learn the bass now

@46:46 I'm literally f--king crying from laughing so hard!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Steve Swallow is one of my favorites. Such a melodic and lyrical player. Beautiful.
When I was younger I played all the notes. Now I play just the sweet ones!
Another bassist with that natural laid back melodic flow is the Bass Buddha guy. Both of their playing gives me a super calming and beautiful vibe.
Watching you guys makes me realise i am normal !!!! There are other crazy bass fanatics out there, So much love for the bass chemistry here you have, please never stop these and also do more of the tracks with no bass that someone has to write parts too !!! ABSOLUTLY LOVE IT
The first time I hear you talk about Catalan bass player Carles Benavent 🙏🏻 Thanks! He is my first inspiration bassist of all time!
Face Fist has an amazing bass groove. I'm with you Ian. Great solo too but the groove...man that's solid.
I love bass solos

Love these 2 guys brilliant if you feel crap one day just watch these 2 and all will be well just brilliant.
I love all about bass! Solos, grooves, slap, fretless... Everything!
Glad i saw this! Was gonna buy a shortscale, was put right off by you, now i've got my confidence back 🤭

He's a monster player, and a great human being!
I always take a solo if they give me one. I still struggle with them, but I go for it anyhow.
For me, a bass solo can be over in about 15-30 seconds, and I get everything I need from it.

Brownstone is such a good teacher too.
Absolutely, Rich is an absolute gem!
Just a mention on the sad death of a great jazz man David Sanborn. RIP Mr sax man.
Rich Brown is the Bob Ross of bass
Awesome video as usual. Ian's shirt is so damn great. Look at that thing!!!

Maybe!!!!

Needs more Stanley Clarke and thundercat
vidoes are brilliant, have you thought of covering some of Andy Rourkes bass riffs?
Grabbing on the Jazz Beard make me think of those Beach Blanket Bingo Movies with the Spoken Word people snapping fingers
I like when you guys laugh at something you've just said that you find funny.
