----------------------------------------<br />
<br />
here now comes the rest of the MUSIC- <br />
SCENE chapter so play with ya stick!!! <br />
<br />
----------------------------------------<br />
<br />
<br />
ok, on with this chapter... <br />
<br />
hhhmmm! the review, first i have to say <br />
that i was too lame to review the album <br />
from mr.big myself spo i just copied it <br />
from the BASS PLAYER number 4, volume 2,<br />
july/august 1991. i hope you don't mind!<br />
the album was already released in the <br />
beginning of 1991 (feb/may). <br />
i have to tell you that this magazine is<br />
a magazine for bass players so the <br />
review will be (most) about mr.big's <br />
bass player billy sheehan. <br />
well, let me start... <br />
<br />
MR.BIG - LEAN INTO IT (atlantic) <br />
--------------------- <br />
<br />
in interviews, billy sheehan always <br />
points out that first and foremost he's <br />
a BASS player, not a soloist. his work <br />
on the latest mr.big disc confirms that;<br />
more than ever, billy's commitment to <br />
supporting the song comes through. <br />
LEAN INTO IT is slicker and more <br />
commercial than the band's debut, 1989's<br />
MR.BIG, but the new album also sports <br />
cleaner production and a more <br />
interesting mix of styles. one thing <br />
that hasn't changed is sheehan's famous <br />
"CHAINSAW THROUGH CHOCOLATE PUDDING" <br />
sound, a rich timbre with a smooth edge <br />
of distortion - and it commands LEAN <br />
INTO IT from the first measure. crank up<br />
the opener, "daddy, brother, lover, <br />
little boy", a rocket ride propelled by <br />
billy's eighth-note pedaling and furious<br />
fills. the tune features a crazy <br />
cordless-drill duet - a high light of <br />
mr.big's recent live shows - performed b<br />
y billy and guitarist paul gilbert. <br />
in the catchy "green - tinted sixties<br />
mind", sheehan anchors the verses with <br />
simple but effective chords, then <br />
switches to a driving single-note line <br />
for the chorus."just take my heart" is a<br />
radio-ready power ballad opened by <br />
billy's soulfull, high-register bends; <br />
he takes brief, low-key leads after the <br />
choruses, decorating the piece with <br />
melodic descending apreggios. <br />
another tune with hit potential is <br />
"alive and kickin'", in which billy <br />
pedals the root again, punctuating his <br />
line with occasional tasty fills. <br />
sheehan's tone is clearest in the song's<br />
quiet interlude, in which he spins a <br />
subdued solo, heavy on the chorus and <br />
full of cross-string leaps, sustained <br />
notes, and long rests; when the vocals <br />
return he's pedaling again. <br />
LEAN INTO IT may be a dissapointment to <br />
those looking for extended talas-like <br />
bass solos, but check it out if ou want <br />
to hear billy sheehan do what he does <br />
best: PLAY BASS. <br />
<br />
well, this was the review of mr.big's <br />
second album/disc. the review was <br />
originaly meant for bass-players to read<br />
but i gave you this one too. if you <br />
listen to the album then please check <br />
this review again and then you <br />
understand why people like the bass so <br />
much. <br />
<br />
some facts about billy sheehan: <br />
<br />
over the past 20 years billy has shared <br />
the stage with everything from dog acts <br />
to david lee roth. he also writes for <br />
the bass player and to show you that he <br />
is a funny guy i'll print a letter which<br />
was sent in to him and the answer billy <br />
gave on it. <br />
<br />
- i've heard you have a knack for <br />
finding the g-spot. whenever i'm <br />
playing my bass and a girl walks into <br />
the room, i try playing every g-spot <br />
on the neck but nothing happens. <br />
please help - i'm confused! <br />
<br />
m.h. fenton <br />
el cajon, ca <br />
<br />
billy's answer: <br />
<br />
aha, fenton! i knew you'd track me down <br />
and try to response on this highly <br />
sensitive and controversial issue. <br />
maybe i do have a "knack", but if you <br />
don't put your bass down for a while, <br />
you'll never find it.(hint: it's not on <br />
the neck, nut it's close to the g-string<br />
)keep practising. <br />
<br />
that was billy's answer... <br />
<br />
i'll give you a hint too, say these four<br />
lines are the strings of a bass-guitar: <br />
<br />
----------------- e-string <br />
----------------- a-string <br />
----------------- d-string <br />
----------------- g-string <br />
<br />
as you see the g-string is the lowest. <br />
this string is closest to your p***s! <br />
so i guesse you now know what he means <br />
by the g-spot. <br />
<br />
