      In the UK, 'Wherever I Lay My Hat' was considered his breakthrough and calling card, but I don't think it was a hit in the US? Everyone has their own Pino track which they consider definitive. It's interesting watching the Questlove podcast interview on TH-cam, because he considers 'Lady in Red' to be Pino's signature line

      Playhouse was Paul Young at his funkiest. The bassline carries that song throughout all the “Bangs and Crashes” (sorry Go West).

    When I was just starting out ( in the late 70's) my influences were Jack Bruce, Chris Squire, and...Peter Cetera. But in 1980 I bought a '78 fretless Precision and looked around for what I was supposed to do with this thing. Within 2 years I discovered the holy trinity of my true inspirations ( all of whom you have now spotlighted) Jaco, Mick Karn, and Pino. It was such an exciting time to learn with so much innovation in technique and sound. Thanks so much for this series.

    He was the first guy I ever saw with a music man bass with a fretless neck. That unique MM active pick up sound but with Jaco phrasing blow my mind. I still don't see anyone with that combo. Just based on your clips you can see how versatile he is, switching tones with each project he works on. He's also a fan of Michael Henderson which puts him high on my list of great bass players.
    Check out his "Notes With Attachments" album with Blake Mills. It shows a more esoteric side to his playing. Superb. Cheers PD.

    And let's not forget that Young's rendition of "I'M GONNA TEAR YOUR PLAYHOUSE DOWN" had one of the best uses of the "Orchestral Strike" ever!!!
    I was a sucker for that sound effect when it was used right.
    Especially whenever hearing it during Clubbing phase all over New York City back in those days.
    But as far as "Prolific", I was going to debate that and give you Tony Levin.
    But then I had to realize that Pallidino has been more "all over the map" musically than Levin (to a degree).

    Pino is the only musician, perhaps the only human being alive, that I've truly idolised. His playing is absolutely awe-inspiring. He cracked the octaver out again for 'I Wish It Would Rain Down' by Phil Collins, and Guy Pratt said Pino's use of that pedal was the inspiration for his work on Madonna's 'Like a Prayer' track. I know there's many musicians who admire his chicken grease style playing in the neo-soul genre with D-Angelo and Erykah Badu, but for me the 80s and early 90s fretless stuff is unassailable. Man, I could bore on about Pino ALL DAY 😂

A friend told him that the then famous "Gary Numan" was holding auditions for a fretless bass player to replace Mick Karns. So Pino borrowed a fretless bass and headed to the try out and got the job !

    I remember Pino saying he was horrified by his bassline in "Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)" being so high up in the mix. He thought he would never get anymore work. Just the opposite occurred, and I am not sure what he was concerned about. I fell in love with that bassline the moment I heard it.

    Awesome video. I was a big fan of Pino in the 80’s (bass player magazine had him and Mark King in the cover as featured English gents of bass!). Later re discovered that he was the bass player behind the Soulquarians! There’s a really cool video of him taking to Quest love for his podcast.

    Where you hear Jaco, I hear Rocco! Other than his beautiful melodic accompaniment on Gravity, live in LA, his playing on the Tears for Fears' tune "Badman's Song" is pure bliss! Especially that sick lick his does at the 6:30 mark, if anyone else has heard it!

    Damn man, I'd never heard this. Obv know of Pino, but your channel really brings out the gems! The kind of stuff I feel like as a bassist, I "should" know, but sometimes feel like a poser for being totally in the dark about. What a great channel and wealth of knowledge, and you are masterful at presenting it, and really covering a lot of ground in a pretty brief time. Also, REALLY loved your 'Aint No Mountain' video not long ago! (among all the rest I've seen) Thanks for what you do, professor! I need to just go back and start from the beginning...

    This was a very touching tribute to Pino (I named my cat after him). It saddens me that his work on the Gary Numan album "I, Assassin" is almost never mentioned by reviewers, which was his first recording. Pino is a major influence on my playing, as was another of Gary Numan's fretless bassists, Mick Karn. I liked your video and assessment of his amazing playing on this song. When I first heard it on the radio as it was becoming a hit, I was able to recognize his playing because of how he played with Gary Numan, and if you like this, you owe it to yourself to investigate "I, Assassin" and Numan's previous album "Dance" (with Mick Karn).

    From North u.k.
    My two sons both now in their mid thirties.
    Both play bass in rock bands and still do now.
    When in their late teens and had been playing
    for a couple of years.
    I had told them I worked with Pino Palladinos brother in law.
    Of course they didn’t believe me, so I said to him one day
    in work, my lads won’t believe I work with Pinos brother in law!
    So he said leave it with me!
    A couple of weeks later, he gave me a large envelope containing
    Bass strings, plectrums, a John Meyer C.D. and a letter of
    encouragement!
    I will never forget the look on their faces, when I threw that
    envelope on the table after dinner that night!
    I had Olympian smugness!
    My colleagues sister, went to London to work as a singer
    met Pino and they got hitched.
    I worked with him for 35 years, our work wasn’t connected
    with music.
