We need a Bass Tales with Pino Palladino!
I'd love to see Geddy Lee. That guy has an amazing story to tell
I think les Claypool
Damn, I was thinking les claypool lol
Geddy would need at least an hour.
Awesome, Les Claypool
YES! 🔥
That would be great!!!
It would be amazing to see Flea, you can’t do this series without him.
He is the reason why many bass players are now what they are.
Big Love!
YES!!! 🔥
Absolutely right! Flea is the reason why I started playing bass!
That was dope. You don't see Blackstone do many interviews. Adam and Pino are the two greatest active journeymen bassists alive - boundless musical vocabulary and incomparable taste.
I've been DYING to see this man on this channel. Best MD and arranger in the world. Unmatched.
His collection is absolutely dope! I'd love to see Felix Pastorius on the show!
That’d be great. Thanks for the suggestion 🙌
Been an AB fan from before his stardom. Great guy, great musician.
If you wanna see that Lakland Skyline really shine, search “Jill Scott Soulstage”. That whole set is amazing. Adam did all the arrangements, the kid drummer is awesome, and AB KILLS the bass!
I'd love to see McCartney here!
I love that he uses production model basses, and not even the crazy expensive ones! Lakland Skyline stuff, etc. I had a Lakland Skyline 55-01 years ago, but sold it when I was broke as shit. I still regret it!
Such a great video. Having had a chance to meet Adam “Bump” on a few brief occasions he has most definitely been an inspiration and someone I admire at this point. Thanks Scott for the content!
If love to see Rob Trujillo and hear the stories behind some of his basses. Mr. Blackstone has possibly talked me into an upright lol
Guy Pratt! I wanna see Guy Pratts Bass Collection! I know you did a interview with him a while ago.
or Pino Palladino
Great review of Adam’s instruments. My favorite review would be Marcus Miller’s instruments, especially the ones he uses in the studio. He has an impressive collection outside of his world famous 77 jazz bass.
We need an episode with Carol Kaye she's such a legend and I bet bet she's got some amazing stories
I’m working on it! ;)
@@devinebass That would bem awesome !
Do A Bass Tales On Marcus Miller I Would Really Dig That Scott 👍
Awesome video! ALSO: Get Thundercat on Bass Tales!
Frank Brunot: beast of a Bass player for gospel legend Fred Hammond who’s a bass player himself so you know he has to be one to listen too, studying his style now
legend and so humble ;) beautiful ! thank you for sharing
I think Ryan Martine from Mudvayne would be amazing, I think he is super underrated.
Not a popular choice but Rex Brown, John Campbell, and Justin Chancellor. These three are killer pick players and need some love
I’d say those are three of the most popular choices! Great taste in bassists btw👍
Definitely Justin Chancellor would be a great choice but I also Billy Gould - hugely underrated!
@@christopherkowalski9971 billy gould only has one bass zoom 4 strings so nooo
Cody Wright falls somewhere in there as well.
What an easy-going, humble guy. Can't believe such a superstar bassman talking as he talks. He's so thankful to the people who helped him. Great interview!
This was perfect and a privilege to watch the master Adam Blackstone in his confort zone. So inspirational. Well done.
Thanks for the encouragement! Would love to see a Bass Tales episode with Lee Sklar.
609!!! Whenever you saw Adam pull up to the gig you knew you were in for a treat! He smashed everything in the tri state growing up
Beautiful collection. But great stories behind the instruments. This guy looks so humble and cool. Tks for this video the best ever made on this series
of all the SBL videos I have watch this one is THE BEST
This was great. Wonderful story.
This series is great, i would love to see robert de leo of stone temple pilots
Anton Zhikharev,
(Insane Death Machine)
...phenomenal mastery of fingerstyle 6 string bass. He has compositions at 300 bpm... FINGERSTYLE!
What a great episode.
What a great guy.
I would love to see Marko Hietala. He's been with Nightwish until recently, when unfortunately he decided to step away from the time being. So I might be wishing for unobtanium.
Didn't know you could wrap a bas. This gives me so many cool ideas
Very cool guy, and very good video. I like how you can feel he likes his electric basses, but loooves his upright.
I gave this suggestion a couple months back... so cool to see it
This is a great video! I knew that Adam was a great bassist and an in-demand MD. I didn't know that he has a jazz background and played upright! Very revealing!
I'd love to see a bass tales with Steve Harris, such a metal bass legend would be amazing.
That would be AMAZING. Leave it with me ;)
I agree: Steve Harris
@@devinebass Can't wait!
I want to see that.
@LCP71 He did play a Lado Bass for. a while, so the story of 2 basses
That was nice...Good One 👍
MATT RAMSEY - He’s the nephew of Andrew Gouche and has been touring with Kirk Franklin the past few years
+1
MATT RAMSEY ALL DAY!!! My favourite bassist at the moment
Awesome!
Man, what passion!
More of Adam Blackstone!!!!
That bass is fly af. I need one
That was excellent! Definitely a bass player's bass player! Speaking of which, how about a session with Tony Levin? That new Liquid Tension Experiment disc is killer!
I would love to see Peter Hook. One of my favorite bassists and has a super unique way of playing! In Joy Division and New Order he is a bass legend! Perfect candidate for Bass Tales.
Great video! I'd love to see Pino Palladino and all his P basses, and Larry Graham who got me into Funk music and slap bass!
I sold Adam a 6 string ken smith bass around 2000 after we went to a jazz camp together. Never got to see him play it but I am sure it was put to good use. Love his playing!
The way his fretting fingers move is hypnotizing
We need Bass Tales with Felix Pastorius!! Great video Scotts!! Keep up with the good work.
Linley Marthe!!! Unique ingenious and he played for/with the late Joe Zawinul Syndicate until Joe had to stop...
Excelente! Pedro Aznar, Guillermo Vadalá y Javier Malosetti
You are legend sir...
Awesome video, would love to see Eric "Pikfunk" Smith for sure!!
Carol Kaye is a must !!
Do one of your own, Mr Ian Martin Allison! Or Mike Kerr from Royal Blood
One of the shot callers in the industry!
John patitucci!
This guy was a joy to listen to
Michael Manring with his Zon Hyperbass - the dude's a freak, with a freaky frikn bass!
To add to my last comment: Why Marcus Miller uses a certain instrument on a given track/ project.
Awesome feature. My ignorance is clearly showing as I did not know about this guy but his resume is crazy
Bubby Lewis, Justin Raynes, Andrew Gouche, Michael League, Mono Neon, Guillermo Vadala, Janek W.
Just a few ideas:!!!! :=)
The one and only Alex Al total beast!! 👍🏾💯
You know a guest is good when he doesn't have to play anything. (Apart from the upright bass in the end).
I was a bike messenger in phila around the time he was recording. I used to get jobs delivering stuff in plain brown paper bags, no questions asked, to quest loves studio when they were all there recording.
That´s a 55-02 love lakland :D
What scale do you recommend to get better a cumbia music? If anyone knows would be helpful.
MY FAV Bass Player IN THE WORLD!!!
I found out about Adam years ago on the kill Scott live recording 🔥🔥he is a monster!!!!
One of the coolast bass i have ever seen. Cab you Ask Lou barlow next
I went to high school with Adam... he's been setting it off his entire life... he used to shake the lunch room.
Geddy would be the dream guest obviously
Love to see Rufus Philpot or Pino Paladino or Flea
I think a bass tales with Robert Trujillo! First of all, he has some killer looking basses, but also he is the curator of Jaco’s Bass of Doom
Look at all that gear man. I'll sleep in there definitely.
Could you please talk to steve di giorgio? He's the guy that created the trend of fretless in tech metal bands.
$500!!! Dayum for that lakland hell yeah... love relationships like that between builders and players
Hello, it could be amazing to ask Jeff Ament to talk aboiut the basses he played on Pearl Jam first album « Ten ». There’s no regular bass on this album : fretlless, 8 string or 12 string, and a fuzz box. Thank you, bye !
N O I C E !
Kevin Wyatt who played bass on Terence Trent D'Arby's Vibrator album would be cool too on this channel.
Michael League!!!
Already filmed and in the can... keep a lookout! 🙌
When are we going to see Marcus Miller on SBL?!?!?!
Nice job! How about a Bass Tales with Mark King?
Great video, Hey what about Mono Neon ?
Would like to see an interview with him from you guy's.
Dominique Di Piazza would be a great one to see, particularly with his development of his fretless bridge
Great! I'd like to see Paul Bushnell, Chris Chaney, or the great Davey Faragher!
3:40 i'm seeing a pattern. Is victor bailey just wooten and steve Bailey fused into one?
Yess
Pino 🙏🏼
Where did you get the bass wrapped? The information is most appreciated.
More bassists who have worked in hip hop please!
Henrik Linder!!
Les Claypool next please!!
Pino Palladino or Sean Hurley, we know what they play but we still need to see them here!!!!!! hahaha
I don't know is anyone else want this but Chris wolstenhome, Clay Gober or Steve DiGiorgio
marcus miller, tm stevens, doug wimbish, flea, les claypool, sirqbass, hadrien feraud, thundercat, billy sheehan,
You gotta get Trujillo on, the dude has an INSANE collection of basses :DDD
Bobby Vega, Victor Wooten, Marcus Miller
