    I always thought Eric was underrated, his playing was awesome and Mountain Song was one of the first bass lines I ever learned

    Awesome, my favorite bass player, along with Stuart Zender (another underrated one by the way)
    Besides Jane’s, Eric also did the brilliant Deconstruction and Polar Bear albums. He is not only a great bassist, but great songwriter as well.

      I don’t think Zender is underrated. He is widely known in the Bass world as one of the best Jamiroquai just never took off in the US as much as they did in Europe and the UK.

    Thank You for this. Not a bass player here, but Eric Avery is one of my favorites...saw his name and couldn't click fast enough. I really like how you explain AND demonstrate the stylings/techniques.

    Eric was the back bone and musical driving force in Janes Addiction. Imo they haven't released any nearly as good after he left the band. And if you check out their setlist from over the years it's still filled with the songs built around his bass lines. Very little is played off of the records he's not on.

  • @fredrikstadwhite
    @fredrikstadwhite 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thanks for doing this. This guy was my absolute bass hero when I first started playing. I was even fortunate enough to meet him once, after a Janes gig in 1991. He never seems to get the credit he deserves. Legend.

  • @thomasfioriglio
    @thomasfioriglio 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Very cool profile! Nice choice and always something to learn from any bassist. Man, the bass line from Been Caught Stealing just grooves and the Mountain Song brings me back to my club days and getting lost in the music.

    0:23 Perry Farrell wanted Bill Laswell to produce "Nothing's Shocking", based on some of Laswell's world music production that Perry loved. Laswell turned them down without hearing them, based on this photo, lol. Lucky for them, Dave Jerden was the right guy for them.

    I wonder how many people love Avery's iconic basslines and somehow confused bass with guitar and attributed everything to Navarro.

    Avery's contribution to JA is immense, and genuinely under-rated. You nailed the role he played, and why it worked so well within that original line-up! Another great video on Janes here:

    Eric didn't use much / any effects but he always used a rack mount compressor. I don't know the brand. But that's part of why he had such a punchy, even sound. You know the joke?: "What's the difference between a good bass player and a great bass player?" A: a compressor and 5 IQ points.
