    Here's a cover that might not have seen the light of day had my Scottish friend, Stewart Mckinlay, and I not had a conversation about it earlier today.
    The song is "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None The Richer or just Sixpence.
    It's a fairly simple bassline bit has some really tasteful parts. I find the recurring chromatic part @ 01:00 interesting, as well as the use of two-note chords during the verses.
    In looking up some info for the song, I was surprised to learn that they were/are a Christian band and that they are from America. Actually, they were founded in Texas, but I guess that's close enough. Haha. I always though they had an "English" sound about them.
    They seem to have gone through a number of bass players but it looks like a fellow by the name of J.J. Plasencio played on this song. The song is off their third, self-titled album which came out in 1997.
    I'm playing my "Classic 70's Precision" to which I added a bridge position Jazz pick-up.

    J.J. Plascencio always did great stuff on Sixpence's work during his two-album tenure with the band. If you want to hear a particularly tasty example, listen to "Love, Salvation, and the Fear of Death" from the album before this one, This Beautiful Mess. He does all this really cool stuff using a delay effect on it, and it sounds amazing.

    • @crescentfreshbret
      @crescentfreshbret 8 років тому +4

      Another great one is "Puedo Escribir" from this album. He goes for an almost funk-sounding thing on that one.
      On a side note, I met him once 20 years ago, and he couldn't have been nicer. I met their singer, Leigh Nash, too, and the same was true of her.

    I have to say was surprised to see you cover this song. I am actually a fan of Sixpence None the Richer and J.J. Plasencio has some amazing bass lines on their 2nd and 3rd albums. One of my favorite bass lines of all time is from the song "Love, Salvation and the Fear of Death" from Sixpence's second album and the song "Puedo Escribir" from the same album as "Kiss Me" has a really good bass line to it as well.

    Another great job, T. Thanks for posting this. I will have to put on headphones and really listen to the original tune. Until you mentioned the use of two-note chords, my old ears simply never picked them out. I like the song a lot, and I've listened to it many times, but two-note chords? Sorry, missed them. If you can be bothered covering Love Song, by Sara Bareilles, I'd love to hear it off your Guild from "Heart of the Sunrise". I think that bass would clack and buzz nicely on that tune, which invites fretted drags down from the notes. Best/:)

      +diamond dave I just browsed a couple of you videos and think they sound fine. My own personal critique would be that I'm not a big fan of the "floating neck" camera angle that you (and many other players) use. I like prefer to see both hands in action. Some people use the "headless player" angle in order to get both hands into the frame but, given the choice between my crotch or my face, I chose, what I thought to be, the lesser of two evils.
