JSngry Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 No, music is too big for that! Besides, it's a violin, not a tuba! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danasgoodstuff Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 Then gimme a tuba, or a Sousaphone, or better yet a bass sax. Try bowing that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 I don't understand why you would want to bow a tuba, or how you could? At least not in any traditional sense. Please advise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Friedman Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 Never thought Paul Chambers was a particularly effective jazz player while using the bow. I have heard John Clayton many times, and while I still prefer to hear him play pizzicato, he is a very good arco player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gheorghe Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) Wow, all those bass fiddles on the thread about JackieMcLean. I´d like to go back to one of his albums that was mentioned here: ´Bout Soul. I should give " ´Bout Soul" another chance. If I remember I didn´t spin it often. I think Jackie McLean in the 60´s was eager to reach other areas of sound , that´s why his music became more and more open and just as a cross between the old hardbop and the new free jazz. He just tried to check out how much he can get "out" of the traditional changes and rhythm patterns (Destination Out) without loosing the boundaries of modern jazz. The next step was New and Old Gospels with Ornette on trumpet, but this still had the swing that maybe Alfred Lion and Francis Wolfff demanded (it must schwing). And maybe after that he wanted to try something totally free, completly out like let´s say the New York Contemporary Five or all those ESP albums that came out. And that´s what it seems to be, a complete free jazz album where you avoid changes and avoid a traditional beat. So it´s even farer out than much of Ornette Coleman´s stuff, because even with Ornette you have sections where the bass just walks . Ornette´s two last albums for BN from 1968 sound much more traditional than Jackie´s 1967 Bout Soul. But it seems that even JackieMc Lean thought that it´s a bit too much of atonal a-rhythmic stuff on Bout Soul, because after this , his recordings were much more conventional, starting with "Demon´s Dance", and so on through the 70´s and the next 3 decades.
