Here is a link I received today about a band I was playing with called Wild Unit with guitar player Michel Cusson (Uzeb). That was almost 20 years ago. I miss playing that kind of music Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHqBd2dMR6g |

Man, you guys are Smokin'!!! And the guitar player is HoT!!! Killer stuff Sly! They should have shown you playing the unison riffs with the band though; it's always more impressive when the bass player does it! |

Thank you. Playing so much pop stuff and studio these past years, I still have a hard time thinking that I was playing that kind of stuff before. I miss it. |

Also Michel Cusson (guit) did form the iconic fusion band Uzeb with bass superstar Alain Caron. So it was a real privilege to be part of Michel's new band. |

thumbslam wrote: AWESOME what kind of bass was that and the wall of cabs? ThanksTb. This is my main bass, a custom 5 strings that was built by Montreal luthier Pierre Laporte. It is still my best bass over all those years. It is made of wild birch with a neck-thru maple neck with graphite strips under an ebony fingerboard, 24 frets and 35". This bass is now 25 years old. Pretty awesome for the time imo. I have Ken Smith soap bars without preamp and a KS bridge also. Very basic but very versatile and the best B string ever! For the bass kit, this was my "Wall of Bass" made of Trace Elliott. 1X15,4X10 and 4X4 or 5"( I don't remember) on each side!!! That was a great kit. It was powered by Crest Audio and my preamp is still my old Demeter that I bought directly from James in his garage in L.A. Thanks for asking |
