Review of Instructional video: DVD for electric bass guitar





   
Flea (from Red Hot Chili Peppers) (DVD)
 
Hosted by Flea. Instructional video: DVD for electric bass guitar.
Bass Player magazine calls Flea a trend setter and thrash-funk icon ... whose thumb has been infectiously influential on many young bassists. This innovative funk purveyor of the Red Hot Chili Peppers presents an introspective and live performance improvisation with Peppers drummer Chad Smith in this DVD hosted by River Phoenix. Flea discusses the theories, philosophies, styles, sounds and techniques he uses when performing in the style he's famous for: slapping, plucking, thumping and popping, bringing together rock, funk, punk, jazz and Latin like never before.

awesome

this is awesome
"river phoenix asks flea about any question about slapping popping punk or funk at all. its a great dvd if you wanna learn to slap and pop and do other funk. flea shows a couple of chili peppers songs and slows em down. its really helpful if u r into playing funk. plus flea is a madman and he is soooo funny great dvd 5 stars"
