Cari amici da quando ho incominciato a "strimpellare" la chitarra, prima di diventare un bassista professionista.......... NE HO DOVUTI MANGIARE TANTI DI PANINI!!!!!!!!!!
Comunque, direi che il mio percorso di "ASCOLTO" musicale e' stato..... quasi in ordine cronologico:
Beatles
Rolling Stones
The Who
Deep Purple - Led Zeppelin (a parimerito!!!)
Ted Nugent
Ten Years After
Rush
Yes
Police
BrandX-Weather Report (di nuovo a parimerito.........un casino!!!!!)
Level 42
E.W.&F

etc.etc... ascoltando di piu' le melodie e i giri di chitarra o i riffs.
Poi mi sono reso conto che stava aumentando il mio interesse verso il RITMO, in particolare dato dall'impatto tra basso e batteria.
Quindi, passando all'ascolto dei bassisti, fui (e lo sono tuttora!) folgorato da:

Jaco Pastorius
Percy Jones
Carles Benavent
Stanley Clarke
Mark King
F.R.Prestia
Marcus Miller
Michael Manring
Victor Wooten

Non minori ma molto rilevanti per un giusto ed adeguato percorso/ascolto musicale, invece, citerei:

Paul McCartney
John Paul Jones
Sting

Sounds Like: Rock-Jazz-Funk

Record Label: unsigned
Type of Label: None
