have a listen to “Watching you” on Kiss alive. In fact what he doesn’t play is what’s cool. Bad approach? Really? What he plays fits his music quite well. he’s been doing fine all these years with that technique. I don’t think Gene cares at all if anyone thinks he has a bad technique. Clearly many people have commented here that don’t “love” Kiss but that they can appreciate what Gene does. I guess I just figured more people would be talking about what he actually did or didn’t do correctly. Everybody has their things they need to work on. for hard set basslines).Īnd I’m not being critical here at all. Although improv and inventing are mostly reserved for lines that aren’t hard-set in stone (think songs like California Girls, When I Come Around, Fire, Suck My Kiss, etc. In “real life” when you’re out gigging, a lot of times you can augment the musicality of the song by playing bass lines that are altered both rhythmically and/or note-wise while still supporting the band and creating a groove.
She is teaching him a very specific line. And I think that was her whole point in this video. You must dig into the part to really know. People tend to think they hear notes and rhythms that sound correct and assume they are, but aren’t (yes, I do it too). And he played the correct notes, just rhythmically backwards. Yes, he learned a reasonable facsimile with all the correct notes, but the rhythm in those octaves is what she was trying to get him to learn. Not trying to sound like a know-it-all, but I find it crazy that nobody in this thread seems to get that he never actually learned the part correctly in this video. Talk about some terrible musicians I mean really it’s all about Functioning hell. What’s up with this Abbath Doom idiot what rock did he crawl out from underneath of. If you’re going to be a Puss and say yeah I’m not that great and no I’m not that great on stage well then you’re not gonna accomplish anything kind of like all either backstabbing Gene!!There’s not another person on earth that doesn’t like Gene Simmons not one. How much are you worth you guys that are putting Jean down he’s worth $300 million do you think he’s a stupid crappy bass player and made that much money.? Come on you guys cut down Gene’s playing ability, but you know what to be at that caliber you have to be thinking much of yourself you Gotta have an attitude to get it to where he’s gotten. But Joey like you said he’s a lot more accomplished than any of you that are giving him a bunch of flack.
No he’s not one of the top five bass players in the world I don’t think he ever claim to be. > Insurance powered by Generali Italia S.p.A.Oh yeah Joey give them hell, Jean is a very accomplished businessman he’s put out some of the best tunes that we all had when we were kids, he puts on the stage show. The Gene Simmons G2 Thunderbird Bass has the look and feel of a lovingly cared-for classic - one that will only improve with age. Nitro finishes - standard back in the day - are significantly thinner than today’s polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to “breathe.” Nitro finishes not only look amazing, but they also enhance the instrument’s tonal qualities. Gibson gave the Gene Simmons G2 Thunderbird Bass a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
