- How do you make a Nashville session bassist cringe??
Ask him if he has a 5 string.

Uncle Larry-great tip on the Stud Finder bridge. My 56 Jr never played or sounded as great as it does now!!
i know im asking randomly but does someone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost the login password. I would love any tips you can give me!
@Nathan Elliot Instablaster :)
@Kashton Emiliano i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Kashton Emiliano it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my account !
@Nathan Elliot you are welcome :D
What’s up uncle Larry! I never comment but just wanted to tell you I love the content. One of the hidden gems of RUclips.
Hey Tom, the past month I have played two open mics as a guitar accompaniment for my friend. These shows being the first time playing guitar in front of strangers. I remembered you talking about the old southern joke so I tried to take my time going into solo sections and just feel it out. I still think I rushed a bit, but I’m glad to have help from all your videos! I will master the flow of taking it slow someday.
AWSOME chubby ! your an ENTERTAINER ! welcome to the club .
Great start, keep it up!
Man, I was content living an average musical life, in my room till you started doing these...It’s cost me some money(a little new gear) but I’m playing out a little now and I’m all passionate about it again! Thank you Uncle Larry!
BTW
I live close to Muscle Shoals, You’re right! Time to grab the wife and go again!!!
That little bit of All The Young Dudes at the end of the loop made me smile and crack a beer at the same time.
I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to see a guitarist on RUclips perform a solo that’s comprised of tasty licks and melodic structures, and is not someone just trying to string together notes as fast as humanly possible. Beautiful playing, sir. #sickofshred
Tommy you’re so chill
I think we sometimes forget what a legendary session monster you actually are!!!
Wait does anyone remember he said he was “borrowing” that 58 from Gruhns?...last MAY!?!? 😏
I've been thinking the same thing lol cool they let him use it that long.
Ah..Uncle Larry, not sure what i dig the most in your playing, the solos or your fantastic chord voicings....keeps telling me the magic starts in the chords....thanks a million for the sharing.
That transition from Am7((9) to Open E(11) brings me to places. Thanks Tom! You are exceptional as always! :)
Muscle Shoals...the River...Eddie Hinton...Dan Penn...Rick Hall... Fame...Muscle Shoals Sound Studio...Special !
Hey Uncle Larry, off topic, but "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" hit my playlist yesterday, and of the hundred times I have heard it, I guess it did not resonate with me that the good ship and crew, a bone to be chewed, was headed to Cleveland. Amazing.
Lake Gitchygoomy hahaaaa
Tom - you are the *worst* thing to happen to my guitar education. Every time I'm about to sit down and work on my 6ths or open chord voicings, you go and post yet another masterpiece that I just *have* to go try and steal ...err... transcribe. Thanks a lot, man.
Seeing a new Bukovac video online has become my most exciting RUclips moment for a long time. Those intro chords are all 10cc I’m not in love and Tom you’re a musical genius
You know what I like about you Uncle Larry? You sound like you. Regardless of all your musical influences you’ve created your own notch in the music world. You are amazing brother!
The next shirt design should just say “... not a Gildan”. Great stuff as always!
Yo this man just made one of the best songs I’ve ever heard
As a guitar player, that was the peak of playing
The first part of that loop sounds kinda like the intro of "She's Gone" by Hall and Oates.
I heard the same!
Yeah that's what I was thinking.
Totally!
First thing I heard too.
Yep, definitely Hall and Oates feel.
Finding all these now has been an absolute gold mine. Some of the best feel to ever do it, no doubt. Appreciate you Uncle Larry👍
Ordered one of those prints as soon as you showed it, they look amazing. I'm gonna hang it right over my guitar shrine as a reminder that class is always in session. You have been a great source of inspiration and you always make me want to pick up my guitar and play after a homeskoolin session. A million thanks mate and keep it up!
That opening jam was so, so evocative of early 70s R&B, which is a real weakness for me, an old rocker. Loved it! Thanks!
The best stuff ever!
your guitar collection is "almost" as impressive as your playing - love what your doin man
Oh look who’s home and already thinking of us
This is called mastery of the craft. This is amazing. Shout out from the fellow Clevelander! 🤘🏻😎
Two things i would say here: (1) really nice bass lines, very musical. (2) Even in this simple looping example, your bass is perfectly balanced with the rhythm guitar track, which is a reflection of your studio knowledge & experience. Well done. Thanks for shring.
That chord progression and feel is awesome!
I think that was a Hall & Oates tune..? Very soulful…
They say the best music is created near a river.
I’ve heard that!
@@Guitargate Chesapeake bay
L.A. River!
@@cliftongolden2 Ohio River
The creek formed from all of the melting snow behind my house!
you're just so damn gifted man. just love to hear you play. it moves me every time...
When you first started playing I was thinking She's Gone. Love ya man. Thanks for all you do for us.
Really cool opening riff it made my Friday morning vibe! Also, at 5:09 All the young Dudes I didn't want that to end. I was thinking that the 100th episode artwork would look great on the back of a tee shirt as well!
Damm! God knows i enjoy your bass playing! Good old times in the garage
Hey, Tom. After binge watching your episodes over the past few weeks I am now finally up to date! I would like to thank you for inspiring me to pick the guitar up again after 8 long years away from it all. On a side note, I've never heard you mention Rory Gallagher. I'd love to hear your thoughts on him. His live performances on his Irish '74 tour is some of my favourite stuff of his. Anyway, you're a top geezer & Thanks again. From Dom - an Englishman living over in Saigon, Vietnam
Gotta say, i love the sounds you get out of that old LP. So articulate and niiiiiice
Lol “I don’t have much to show you” proceeds to blow my mind. Top 3 things you’ve done for me 1) Ted Greene chord chemistry 2) Steve Howe 3) smears (notably the half step rub variation)
And here I am asking again for an "Uncle Larry's Good Vibe Loops" CD...
The open door garage session is a VIBE! I saw the thumbnail and instantly opened my windows and strummed a few chords along with songs just for fun. At some point I realized I was a much better rhythm man than a lead man, so that's where I stay. It's fun, but I can't wait for more open garage classes!
Great to see that smile on your face there Tom and the doorwide open. The experience at Muscle Shoals is obvious. Haha..
You can't even hide it! Lol
Thanks for taking us along man, soooooo cool!
My favorite thing about you is that you dare to be different by just being you.
Awesome licks fresh back home.
Thought you were going to go into ‘she’s gone’ at first.. awesome loop, wicked cool getting to see you play bass, got a Jamerson kinda thing going on there
Hi Tom, Nice bit of bass. Thanks for taking us all with you to Muscle Shoals - what a privilege. Now that we're back in the garage, I feel even more like I made the trip with you and I'm back at home! Only one more bar to the chorus... 😎
Hey Tom, you ever have days where the mojo just ain't there, you're just not feelin it? Then other days you're on fire and the music is just a flowin ? I think we all have those days. What do you do, being a studio cat I'm sure you've had those "bad days". What do you do to overcome it? Drink a Rollin Rock?! On another note, I've been working on my bass playing the past few days in order to make cool backing tracks. It's much harder than it seems. Thanks for showing us how it's done!
Uncle Tom, Starting guitar at 13 back in 65 as a kid , Had a short journey with my axe. Played until 84 till was downed with Nueropothy which froze my fingers and had to set
the axe down and had to go for my second passion as a sign artist, started a business then till now. After finding you on the interweb picked it up again doubting that i could do it as being in my sixties and with new meds in our world now found out i could play again, Sure my friends made fun of me , shit you will never play again, well uncle tommy i'm back You drove me to set high again now back in the saddle, The age screw it playing like i'm a kid again. Thanks Tommy you inspire junkie. Thanks
Thats the best man...i love it...rock on soldier!
Love it. Thanks TB
Every part of that jam was so darn tasteful. Thank you Uncle Larry!
Hi Tom greetings from Ireland you have got us through these weird times would love to have your wife Sarah back for the 100th thanks for all your inspiration
Wow, love the funky bass line! Great all around. Thank you, Tom.
Just listened to the ' Christmas blanket special' again. I love your wife's voice. It's sublime. It's so country it makes me want to buy a horse!! Please get her back on for the 💯 edition. Anyway I bought a 00018 instead.😂😂🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏😂😂😂
Can’t think about a better lespaul sound,nothing’s missing in there.Great work and playing Tom
Kind of reminds of movin on and gettin over by John Mayer...cool jam. Your playing really does inspire me
Man your a great player, what a lovely jam!
Ive always heared your name but ive never heard you play, what an inspiration.
All the best from Germany!
Regards
Johnny Ray R.
Wow...what in incredible experience producing Ann Wilson vocals...wow!!
Hey Tom
ScottJustin here you probably don’t remember me but you and Andy use to come over to my house in Surfside back when we were 13-15 years old. I played drums. I been watching your channel and it is fantastic! Very cool that you are sharing your wealth of knowledge and giving back to so many people. I wanted to send you a message and I just heard that Michael Stanley passed away this morning 72 years old. Anyway you are a great humble man! Keep on keeping on brother.
❤ dig it uncle larry.
Love the bass playing, Uncle Larry! And always lovely to see that LP. Thanks!
Another wonderful Volume Tom/Uncle Larry. 5 string bass story to funny. like when I moved to Franklin, TN and played an E flat 9 chord, person stopped me as said " man that chord is illegal in Nashville" I'm like laughing because coast music uses it. so I thought he was joking. Damn if he wasn't right, that fast I knew country session work wasn't for me. so I did my own thing and never looked back. This is why what you said about the 5 string Bass made me roll on the floor. Enjoyed it and when you do your grooves enjoy improving.
Keep up the Volumes and Cranking the volume,
Chris Nashvillerocker DiMella
Thanks Buk, your channel has been a fave of mine since the madness started. Your content is always enjoyable and enriching to watch and you always seem to come over so natural ,unpretentious and non contrived. Wishing you and yours the best of everything always!
Nice as always, you bring spring feeling and a smile all the way to sweden.
All the best man
Driving to the gig listening to uncle tommy! Never thought I would see the day.
Your bass line is refreshing it is nice to hear a bass that is not totally compressed
Thanks BUK!!! We love and appreciate you man.
I must get to Muscle Shoals someday! Thanks for the tour Uncle Larry.
You rule man! Thanks for sharing your great insight and experience! Regards Kenneth from Finland
I'm probably just not looking in the right places, but it's really cool to see the bass as the focus of the playing. Stellar groove here. Nice walking pace to it.
I commented before the solo was added to the loop. Even better! Wish I could loop like this. Guess I should keep practicing.
I like it when you play bass so my guitar playing doesn't sound bad by comparison!
Sweet...love the artwork....and the jam track....nicely done......
Dearest Uncle Larry, longtime supporter and multiple shirt owner! Thank you for being the best thing guitar related on youtube or anywhere else for that matter. Since you've brought up Robocop so many times and I as well am a massive Paul Verhoeven fan, I decided with my band to make a fully realized rock opera based on Total Recall in every vivid detail. It just came out and I'd love to send you a copy. With respect and humility,
Cold Engines
Wow...email that shit to tombukovac@gmail thanks man
My goto bass is a Modulus Quantum5, with EMGs. My baby ❤
I keep a P and a J bass handy for those times when nothing else will do; or just for a change of feel.
That 'Pickin' style on bass is something I came to later in life; particularly when I started playing more thin string guitars ...
It offers some different rhythmic options. Great for mixing it up.
Very Hall & Oats sounding tune.... love it!!
Cool loop jam! I thought for a moment there you did a funky version of "I'm not in love" of 10CC. Cheers from Norway, Thor 🙂
Rocking that bass like a champ! Excellent video and liked the shoals tour. Good stuff sir
Man! If I could have thought of it, I would have played that exactly the same way.
I've had a shitty day until now. But now I've looked into your video, little Tommy, and what can I say? My mood has improved significantly!
just bad ass groove...that change! that bend on the f when you change! yea dawg!!!
Lovely tone on that LP on the intro ...Those last few notes just to hear it.
Tio showing off that solid groove🤙🏽👍🏽 I have to agree , it's all about making them dance. its what they want.. and ours groovey.....Look at Tower of Power... There's no shredding. It's all groove.
That print is sick and worth every penny. Stay -toasted- warm and toasty. Thanks.
Couldn’t get a print because they’re not available for my area. Bought a Homeskoolin’ hoodie instead! Looking forward to wearing it to promote your channel on my channel. 🤘 cheers!
It looks like the weather is nice today up there in your hemisphere of the woods Uncle. Nice here in sunny Brisbane today, too, You the man.
Caught the little Mott/Robson.
Thanks for all the great videos. I’m gonna need to head to Muscle Shoals for a long weekend soon.
The Cherokees who lived in the northwestern corner of Alabama called the river that flowed through their territory “Unashay” ... “the Singing River.”
Whether it’s from the water or the mud, there is something in the air down there. If anyone is curious as to all the great music recorded there, look up the documentary on Hulu. Love ya, Uncle Larry
fire fire on the mountain.....LOVE IT man!! felt dead at first.../??lol
Funky ol' Uncle Larry! Thanks man, nice groove, spank that plank!
Uncle Larry, your fall back gig could be as a bass player in a funk band!
Ralphs rules! Gee, I’d like to get down there where it all went down. Sun, Shoals.. and RCA etc. They’re lucky to have old Tom tracking there!
Looks like spring has sprung!!!
Killer grooves at the beginning!
what a fantastic poster made by ziggy!
Such a good rhythm 🎶
Excellent!!! 🔥🔥🔥.
🤘🏼SUBBED🤘🏼
Uncle Larry! You made my day. Great jam. My wife and I watched the Muscle Shoals documentary the other night. Absolutely fantastic. Fits right in with 20 Feet From Stardom and The Wrecking Crew. All great movies hubbies and wives can enjoy together. Also ordered my print the other day. You're signing them right??? -G
Always thought it was "mussel" instead of "Muscle". Kind of a shock when I saw Muscle Shoals spelled out on the water tower. If I ever visited there it would be to go fishing.
Nice quote of All The Young Dudes there Uncle Larry!
Hey Tom! The first time I saw you was during the Tom Petty HB & Joe Walsh tour a few years ago. I didn’t know who you were but I was watching you the whole show - I knew you were a special player. Then I ended up catching one of your guitar picks and it had your name on it. I knew you must be the real deal! Haha
And here I am watching your videos on YT - such a pleasant surprise.
Cheers, Matt
As a bass player who loves this channel, I could not be happier seeing this!! #Genesis #Prog #70s
Dude! I just got the same bass yesterday... I felt the same way when picking it up...1st 5 string since my high school NY days.Wild!
Sounds great and sweet shirt! 🤘
Your about the coolest dude ever love the show.
Beautiful.
Saw the homeskoolin' logo superimposed on the beer bottle corner of my screen. Looked pretty cool 👍
Livin the dream Buk
Tom that was a killer grove!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Groove and pocket! And the FAME t shirt is killer Uncle Larry👍
That intro of the jam is the intro to 10cc 'I'm Not In Love'! Stockport's greatest export.
