Bowie is great , but who is this bassist?

Gail Anne Dorsey
She absolutely kills the vocals and bass line.

I said to him, “There’s no way I’m going to be able to sing and play that — are you kidding?” He was like, “I’ll give you two weeks.” And then he walked out of the room, so I had to figure it out.

Yes, she's great, but wow, just reminds me, Bowie was a God.

 

[garp]

Tremendous performance. Thanks for posting that.

 

[JRA]

she kills it. always.

There's a few different versions of this on youtube, from various performances and live concerts.
She nails it every time.
Does a better job of it than Mister Mercury did too, in my opinion.

Playing her Marilyn 'Ray, I see! She's an incredible talent. And if her online interview with Scott Devine is any indication, very humble and down to earth, as well. One of my favorite bassists!

 

[P. Aaron]

That takes some syncopation for sure.

TRY THIS: Play and sing over the close of this well known song. Much harder than it may sound. The bass line is very cool too:

Ms Dorsey is an A Grade Talent

The The - Hanky Panky

I wonder if she still has her MTD Grendel. Cool bass

 

[two fingers]

Yeah she's unreal. But for being in Bowie's shadow she could have been a huge solo artist herself.

Gail Ann Dorsey is awesome. She is now playing for Lenny Kravitz. Her album, The Corporate World, is a great unsung album. It was produced by Nathan East.
