BASS CULTURE...Erik Scott

Слика
        The timeline of Scott’s career is nothing short of remarkable and constantly evolving. Each decade seems to take him from one genre and musical role to another, beginning with his work with Flo & Eddie. Scott moved to LA in the early 1970’s and managed to break his way into the live and session scene. He spent most of the mid-late 70’s touring and recording with the duo; he can be heard on Illegal, Immoral and Fattening (alongside Leland Sklar) and Moving Targets. Playing around LA eventually led to meeting Alice Cooper, a relationship that carried through most of the 1980s. Amidst touring, he worked on a handful of Alice Cooper records as both bass player and producer. FLO & EDDIE  Moving Targets Columbia,1976 https://www.sendspace.com/file/rn5zdg

Before long he was playing on local radio and scored a residency at a West Memphis grill.

Prior to King, few guitarists used vibrato with such artistry, but he loved the fluttering sound of slide guitarists such as cousin Bukka White, and the powerful quiver created by blues harmonica player Little Walter. So he developed his own, by quickly rotating his finger while holding down a fretted note.        When the white blues boom of the 1960s exploded, artists like Eric Clapton, The Rolling Stones, and Paul Butterfield used their success to

DON'T SHOOT ME...Jimmy Greenspoon

        In the 1960′s he played in several local bands, including The New Dimensions, with his lifelong friend and Academy Award winning producer, Michael Lloyd. He worked on the Sunset Strip during the 60′s with groups Sound of the Seventh Son and The East Side Kids. They held residence at The Trip, Stratford On Sunset (now The House Of Blues), Brave New World, Bido Litos, Ciros, and The Whiskey.      In 1968 he met a trio of vocalists, Danny Hutton, Chuck Negron, and Cory Wells who would soon have a recording contract with Dunhill Records and were looking for backing musicians. Jimmy joined their new band Three Dog Night, which had commercial success in the late 1960′s and early 1970′s. Greenspoon was the first musician hired for this new band playing Hammond organ and Wurlitzer electric piano.       Greenspoon helped re-launch Three Dog Night in the mid 1980′s. In 1991 Jimmy co-authored a book with Mark Bego about the band entitled  One Is the Loneliest Number: On the Road and Behin
