Double Bass Rhiannon Giddens Video Release Featuring Jason Isbell

That's a fun tune! Gotta listen to it more closely, on better speakers. But I'd love it if you pointed out any spots you think especially fine. I too often find myself just getting caught up in a rolling walk like you lay down, without appreciating the subtleties.

What I especially enjoy is the guitars and vocals are definitely out front, but your bass starting around :30 is what really gets people moving and propels the song. Very present, but not overpowering. Sweet work!

Who are the people in the vid?

Nothing fancy but I do enjoy the walk myself:)

Nothing fancy but I do enjoy the walk mysel

For whatever reason, your comment reminded me of this little ditty by a group I've always been fond of!

Let's take a walk with no point, no purpose
Just get outside and go around the block
I'm kinda bored and so are you
Let's go kill an hour or two
Just take a walk with no point, no purpose, ah yeah


Definitely NOT guidance for a bassist! :D

It’s always a joy to just gear up and drive the bus
