Could I Play Bass With The Chick Corea Elektric Band II? | Ritual

Recording Notes: This episode of the "Could I Play Bass With" series is a little different... Instead of challenging myself to transcribe/learn a song quickly and then record it in as few takes as possible, I chose to take a song I had listened to but hadn't played before, and make the challenge a reading one. Reading something in the studio in one take with no rehearsal is something I've always loved to do, and sadly it's not something that exists that often for this style and level of music. Ritual, from the Chick Corea Elektric Band II's "Paint the World" album happens to be in the "New Real Book Volume 3" by Chuck Sher. I once again used LALAL.AI to create a bass-less play along, and set up the session as though I was the bass player on the date. What you hear is the only take I did, but there was one mistake where the melody comes back after the sax solo. You'll see my hands don't match up with the video for about one or two seconds as I punched three notes after the fact to fix the take. Everything else is live but unfortunately, for the purposes of this exercise, I wasn't able to take out the higher range slap notes in Jimmy Earl's original part. All the fundamentals of the bass are gone from the original, but you'll hear a few pops from time to time. This was a huge album for me growing up, and Jimmy has always been a huge influence on my playing. I'm proud to call him a friend, and am very fortunate to have been around Los Angeles and been able to check him out live in very intimate settings for which there is simply no substitute. I've also been fortunate enough to work a lot with everyone else in this band besides Chick. I toured with Eric Marienthal in Chuck Loeb's band and played in LA with him and Mitch Forman. Mike Miller and I were in a band with Chad Wackerman for a little while which was a ton of fun, and I've played with Gary Novak in a bunch of different settings in town which is always the greatest hang. Signal chain on this one was the caveman audio BP-1 straight into the desk. No compression in post, and just a light mastering plugin on the master fader before I bounced it down.
