Music
Lately ive been really inspired to play bass...i dont know what it is about old motown songs and or what it is about the playing style of james jamerson but when I listen to these old songs I just want to be there in the 60's. The man has a different tact than modern bassists and you dont hear it until you sit and listen closely to a record.
I also think alot about what it would be like to hear his songs for the first time on the radio and how mind blowing it would be to hear something so amazing. I guess I never realized how easy it would be to take people like him for granted. So what im going to do is list the people that have inspired me musically over the years...soo here goes.
The Beatles(specifically george harrison but not limited too)
The funk Brothers (specifically james jamerson)
Ryan Adams(weird choice I know)
Crosby Stills Nash and Young(young mostly)
Ray Lamontagne(mans got a voice)
Sigur Ros(most intense live show ever)
Jackson Browne
Phil Spector(crazy or not)
Mark Trombino
George Neumann(for making most of these bands possible)
Another George...George Martin
There are a ton more but I would like to know some of the people that have changed your lives musically if you care to share
