You did an excellent job covering their tunes. Kool and the Gang is one of my favorite bands. One thing I'm not sure people realize is they favored jazz at the beginning of the career. They didn't really have a standout, lead vocalist in the early days. As such, some of my favorite songs comes from the pre funk, pre pop era. It is extremely difficult to name my five favorite songs, but since you asked, and did such a fine job, here it goes: 1) Winter Sadness 2) Fruitman 3) Who's Gonna take the Weight? 4) Ancestral Ceremony 5) Wild and Peaceful As a bass player, I think you'll appreciate these songs. Thank you for your content.
Yes! This right here! Thank you! My Dad also loves their early stuff, which many people don’t know much about. Thank you for listening and the comment. Kool & The Gang were truly special. ❤️❤️❤️
Always nice to see young people so very interested in music.Guarantees that it will never die.You are truly devoted to becoming a musician.Music can change your life!
funk thumbs up! well done! you gotta check out the album lifeline by Roy Ayers & Ubiquity, incredible funky bass lines on it, lots of off the wall syncopations, a master class in funk bass. I probably commented about this, or maybe suggested it in person at a gig, sorry if I'm repeating myself, but it's so essential and underappreciated, I never hear people talking about it, and those bass lines are genius. especially Stranded in the jungle. holy cow listen to that song.
Hi Ruby on your video of Peg the song is too soft. Make it louder. Your playing is great. Give those support you to help you by give a good comment to make your presentation better.

Absolutely cool! Have you already done 'Fresh'?

Thanks for sharing these! Do you have a preference for fingerboard? I see you play a maple a lot. Mine's rosewood.
I don’t have a preference, but rosewood looks 🔥 on a bass! 🙌❤️
So great !
If I may ask, what microphones do you use on those bass lines ?
Thanks !
🤗
Thanks for watching! I’m using the xvive wireless system with a Focusrite Scarlett interface connected to LogicPro! 🙌❤️
Id love to hear you p[lay Hush,by Deep Purple.
