Hope you are well....
Isolated... caged.... but feeling closer to nature then ever,  watching the birds fly free and listening to their song.

Since I started one-man band music on SC, I realized how exciting it is to play the bass. So I wanted to compose and play a song in which the bass plays the lead.
Although it took some effort, I really enjoyed playing. 
I used Jazz base made by Fender Japan.

Bass Heaven

I have always loved this song by Robert Palmer, but I always imagined it at a slower tempo to allow the words to resonate a little more. Rather fun perfecting a perfectionist, I hope Robert doesn't mind, in fact I wish he'd come back and do the vocal. So, anyway, here's my lockdown cover, accompanied by my Valuable Friend, Rick Medlock - The King of Rhythm.

JOHNNY AND MARY

Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could buy truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind more than a woman
But she made her bed
Even when the chance was slim

Johnny says he's willing to learn
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'll live anywhere
When he earns time to
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says that he still acts like he
Is being discovered
Scared that he'll be caught
Without a second thought
Running around

Johnny feels he's wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real
Sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says she should be used to it

Johnny's always running around
Running around

What else can we say but Funk 2020.  It's been brutal for so many.  We're hoping you can find the groove here with us as we send 2020 out.  As always, Pinner is hot, working his magic on the super tasty wah rhythm guitar and lead work.  Of course, thanks to Parliament for the simple bass line that it all revolves around.

Thanks as always for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares

Hope to be here more often 
Some bass moods in the meantime 
I do hope you're holding on whilst the storm passes

Under The Weather

SHE PUTS THE BAG IN THE BOX 
AND A RIBBON AROUND IT
MAYBE A PAIR OF SOCKS 
AND LOCKS THE WHOLE IN THE CLOSET

THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THE AIR
LIKE A PRELUDE TO A KISS
PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
BUT ONLY ONE JENNY LEWIS

TE SOUVIENS-TU MICHELLE
DES LONGUES NUITS DE LONDRES
ET DE CE JOUR À NOTTING HILL
OÙ ON S’EST FAIT LA BOMBE

YOU WERE A FRESH CUT PEONIE
A BIRD OF PARADISE
IT TASTED JUST LIKE HONEY
AND GIN WAS POURING DOWN FROM THE SKIES 

IL PARAIT QUE TU CHERCHES UN HOMME
TOUT COMME EARTHA KITT
COULD IT BE ANY FEVER DOG
OR ANY GOD ANTIQUE  

N’EFFACE PAS LES BAISERS 
DON’T DELETE THE KISSES
SOUVIENS TOI LES DÉLICES
OF THE VARIOUS OTTOLENGHI

VOLARE VOLARE OH OH OH

SHE PUTS THE BAG IN THE BOX 
AND A RIBBON AROUND IT
MAYBE A PAIR OF SOCKS 
AND STICKS THE WHOLE IN HER POCKET

ET ELLE SUIT LES RIVIÈRES
QUELQUE PEU BORDERLINE
ALLUME LA LUMIÈRE
LIKE ANY CALIFORNIA LIGHT

THE WAY THE STORY GOES
IT SOUNDS LIKE A JOKE
TO TRY AND FEEL THE FLOWS 
INSIDE AN ARTICHOKE 

MAIS DANS LES PARFUMS SUBLIMES 
DE CHAQUE BOUTIQUE ÉSOPE
MICHELLE IF YOU’RE A DREAM
WHO WANTS TO WAKE UP
I DON’T 


I WON’T FORGET THE WAY
YOU KISSED THE TEACHER
I WON’T FORGET THE DAY
I MET YOU EITHER

SHE PUTS THE BAG IN THE BOX 
AND A RIBBON AROUND IT
MAYBE A PAIR OF SOCKS 
AND LOCKS THE WHOLE IN THE CLOSET

HAVE A VARSOS MICHELLE
TAKE A PICTURE OF YOUR PLEASURE 
AND SEND IT TO ME
COS MAN AS YOU KNOW IS THE ULTIMATE BEAST
AND LIFE AS YOU KNOW IS A MOVEABLE FEAST
WHICH MAKES IT HARD FOR ME TO TRANSLATE
THE VERY SPECIAL TASTE OF EUTHYMOL TOOTHPASTE
