D'Angelo One Mo' Gin Bass cover+breakdown

- As Bass Player Magazine journalist Chris Jisi put it:
" Pino's part on the melodic hook of One Mo' Gin contrasts the Delta-dirty bass and keyboards on the tune's verses...he uses 10ths and other arpeggio shapes to add interest and color to the sparse track".
In the same BP issue (May 2000) Pino says:
" D comes up with amazing bass parts in his left hand. He would play me about 80 percent of a line,and the remaining 20 percent was open to my interpretation. My approach, which he encouraged, was to constantly develop the line with subtle variations, à la Jamerson "
C#F#BE tuning and 7 years old 105/50 flats
Been telling folks for years that this joint is the unsung masterpiece of Voodoo. Subtle genius. Great work man
Honestly i don't know if i even have a fav track off of this album; Songwriting-wise, some tracks are obviously more sophisticated than others (Send It On, The Root, Untitled, Spanish Joint, Africa or this one) but even the more beat oriented tracks like Playa, Devil's Pie, Chicken Grease, The Line, Great Day... reach me all the same you know.
Voodoo is a timeless masterpiece concept album, a cohesive analog sounding musical journey w/a beginning and an ending and a pretty much linear and kinda slow tempo throughout (except for Spanish Joint) i have a vivid memory of the 1st time i heard it (where and with who i was) i must be over 1k listenings since 2000 and i just can't get tired of it, i wouldn't say the same about Brown Sugar or Black Messiah, which i dig a lot too of course but those are albums in which i have favorite tracks, unlike Voodoo. That being said, i'm more than eager to hear the next chapter which could be released sooner or later ;)
my jaw just dropped this is the fattest bass line in any song and you nailed it!!!! all the double stops with the hammer ons etc all the pinoisms, man love your work!!!!!!
I like your way of teaching. First groove the hell out of it then just play it in slow and show hands. No need to talk, no waste of time with self advertising and fluff. You are amazing my dude!
yeah i don't remember cause it's been a while but i must have said to myself "well i might as well break that down while i'm at it"
Actually this one ain't as hard as Chicken Grease or Playa Playa off the same album, lotsa variations of course but the groove is almost regular lol
What a tune and bass part though, i still can't get over it 20 years after!
This is one of the greatest songs of all time. That bass line haunts me. This is as grimy as soul gets.
seriously? Only 535 Views!?!
This is so brilliant :-)
Your tone,groove and soul influence is something i havent heard or felt in a long time
Keep it up..
you.are.amazing :-)

The smoothness of your playing and the warmth, man... every single video kills me. I'd put you next to pino palladino in pure pleasure to the ear :)
My favorite bass video on youtube.
Outstanding video!!! One of the best subtle bass songs around, so much going on thanks for showing the fingering and the string tuning for it!

Great work! I've been trying to figure out that fill Pino does at around 3:25 for a while now. Awesome job man

Very good job bro..
It is not an easy sound to do as guitar bass to do.
you are amazing wooooow!
damn that's accurate
this is some heavy s**t, I didn't appreciate what was going on. Thanks for the break down.
D'Angelo + Palladino fan 4evah!!
AWESOME!!THAT is all i can say!oh man thanks for this video.. 1 question- are you using any effects- like an OC2 or compressor? Thanks in advance..imm going to study these lines now!
Smooth makes me wanna sip a glass of strong batch of whiskey play on playa
@oneshadyveggie from 5:38 'til the end, i break the changes down
Hey Greg,
I instantly cranked on the Vodoo album and listened to playa playa after reading your response..Yes, you can definitely hear traces of OC 2 on playa playa..am i righ tin saying though that the settings for OC 2 were mild? i mean if you dont really listen closely you would not notice..can you probably share his settings on playa2 if u dont mind?
Also- what compressor did you use on One Mo GIn? can you also share your settings if you dont mind? You are awesome Greg! looking forward..
Man, you've got great feel for the groove. I'm going to try to have some videos up soon, would love for you to check them out.
oh and how long did it take you to get to this level of bass playing? I'm a guitar player, but am thinking about taking up bass more seriously than I have in the past.
guitar player first too (started late 80s) played bass in rehearsal jams from the start but really got into it like 20 years ago w/intensive funk and jazz immersion
Will i be able to play this on a 5-string, with 2 whole octaves, without having to retune? Thnq
amazing playing my friend!!!can i ask,how the f@#k do you play that bass tuned so low?
why are some of your older videos being taken down?
did you ever notate this or does it exist in notated form?
i learned it by heart
@WorshipBassist C#/F#/B/E
Which model of Sadowsky bass is this? What kind of electronics does it have? Also, and this is coming from a black man, you're black enough.
Standard '99 JB w/swamp ash body, maple neck and fingerboard, Sadowsky pickups(DiMarzio ultrajazz actually) i pretty much never used the preamp cause i found it too modern and bright sounding...
i sold this bass 2 years ago and i'm playing a €350 all stock Squier vintage modified JB which sounds and plays very good imo
You sliding them strings...
