    Playing duo with Christian McBride would be simultaneously terrifying and so thrilling... but that chemistry that Russell and Christian had in the tradings was absolutely beautiful!

    Recently Christian McBride was asked, ”what’s the best way to strengthen jazz music and build the audience?” It’s a pretty simple answer according to McBride. “Make it fun,” he suggests. “There’s a certain human spiritual fun aspect about this music, every other so-called genre of music kind of focuses on it. We get way too deep in the weeds of intellectualizing, analyzing. There’s this subliminal message that you’re smarter than the rest of them if you like this music. We gotta cut that out.”

    Thank you Emmet Cohen & Co for doing that.

      the lack of a guide for intonation gives it such a human feel, the little variations in pitch feel like a real voice compared to "perfectly" tuned instruments

    How does Christian McBride project so well? Is it the wrap around pick-up? Or are his hands just that strong

    • @ianaldridge227
      @ianaldridge227 3 роки тому +2

      In this instance it looks like he’s using a realist lifeline pickup and not the wrap-around style. The band on his bass is just for the shoulder bib. Russel wasn’t playing through a pickup so I’m guessing that’s why Christians bass cut through a lot more

    • @gregorywilliams7151
      @gregorywilliams7151 3 роки тому +4

      McBride is using a DPA clip-on microphone. To answer your question though, yes, thats a stroooonnnnng dude. But to tell you the truth he's not pulling that hard. He has a great set-up, rough ass callouses, and phenomenal technique.

    • @McPhersonBassMaster
      @McPhersonBassMaster 3 роки тому +10

      Another thing that contributes is that he's using Spirocores, while I think Russell plays on a full set of Olivs. Those spiros are a hell of a lot brighter and more mid-rangey and cut through a lot more, but those guts that Russell has give a big, cushy, supportive sound for the wider group.
