GLASS CEILING / Scott's Album Breakdowns (Tone, Grooves, Solo's, Technique and More) | EP116 | The SBL Podcast #116
As bassists we get used to writing bass lines that are grooving, but can the bass guitar also play the melody of a song or be the focal point? In today’s episode, you’ll hear Scott’s analysis of the song Glass Ceiling from The Devine King Project, Vol. 1, including the importance of being able to represent and perform a great melody on the electric bass. Shouldn’t everyone in the band get to play the melody?
In this episode
Scott breaks down his track Glass Ceiling.
Including his route into playing the melody.
His use of harmonics.
How to recreate his bass tone.
Where to find the FREE album eBook.
And much, much more!

My favorite song. Again! Love this album, Scott. Glad you did the Bandcamp bit. Cheers!

[@andrewpinner3181]

Thanks Scott. Loved the bass intro solo, the tone & feel sounded as close to fretless without (obviously) being fretless. Nice !
l know you'd mentioned playing thus.

Very nice. Reminds me of Bruford’s album with Jeff Berlin and Alan Holdsworth from the late Seventies.

Also my favourite song on the album. Course within SBL is superb and I'd certainly love to experience the album played live, any chance of that happening anytime soon?

[@fleaSP]

I love this track! It reminds me a bit of Truth be Told off Tal Wilkenfeld's Transformation album. I wonder if you and she have similar influences?

I've heard of blowing one's own trumpet but didn't know it was possible to blow one's own bass before now 😂 Seriously though, out of this world incredible playing and amazing synergy in your ensemble!

Hey, Scott... those runs have more of a Jimmy Johnson vibe to me than AJ, but what do I know?
