Such a sweet and kind personality, and such a great musician. Bass is such a beautiful, powerful instrument, if it is in the hands of someone like Ida. Thanks for the video.
Impressive to be ready for Prince for years..She is a clean bass musician,and that's one thing that I value in a musician...precision and clean sound..
Loved the story about Prince and the set lists and the inspiration to get lit fret markers at the top of the neck. Beautiful bass and playing, really nice.
You should pay more respect for the hard work she spent to get that good. No one gets born with any skills. You work on it until you get there by sheer willpower!
@@hans-joachimbierwirth4727 - Do you mean that no one is born with special abilities. That everyone can write symphonies when they are five years old ?
Holy sh...! No wonder that Prince hired her. It is so amazing how higly talented some people are. I am glad that the Internet makes it possible for us to see! Thanks a lot for sharing this video! Merry Christmas!
I love listening to her funk out. The piece she played near the end of the video was so smooth and relaxing, I would love to hear all of it. Please show more videos of her. If she has a RUclips channel, I'm subscribing.
I had the pleasure to go to the "Welcome America" Tour and see Prince at Madison Square Garden. OMG IDA was killing it with Prince, Shelia E & the list just kept going.
Well, the Purple One knew talent when he heard it, for sure. Miss Ida is far from lacking in that realm, I can tell! Skilled, talented, and humble is a fantastic package, for sure. That tone is to die for, too! Anybody who was good enough to play with Prince is OK by me.
Thank you Ida! For pursuing your dream which no doubt always comes with sacrifices. I appreciate the richness and prowess of your craft. You are one of the greatest. May God grant you long life and prosperity. Much love & respect.
I was fortunate to see Ida Nielsen play with Prince in Glasgow... sensational player and added so much to the band, especially on the full line-up in 2011 Amsterdam gig at North Sea Jazz festival (10JUL11). Love that style and tone that prince obviously adored as well.
Any musician guy/girl that has work,played with, such the like of Prince,Michael Jackson,Quincy Jones,Chaka Kahn, Bowie just to name a few. Are totally on a different level of musicianship and maturity in their playing! Two thumbs up to her, for sure....
Yes you are correct! I have seen him live many times! Saginaw and Detroit MI, LA ,Minneapolis and at Paisley Park! He was truly a amazing performer! It was a very sad day when he died! Just feeling some kind of way about his death. 😔
Please dont say I'm a sexist but I love female bass player I've know of this woman for years and it's TRUE women really understand Funky Bass and she for sure certainly brings something new to the funky bass scene...she definitely in my top 5 bass players.. maybe one day she'll get to number 2 never number 1 because that's reserved for Geddy(the real deal)Lee..😁
I´s so good to see Ida on a regular basis here on the channel and let´s not forget Prince who did so much for bringing outstanding female musicians to our awareness...
She is one amazing bass player. I will never forget how we were - totally by chance - seated next to each other in the backstage area at some festival, like 15 years ago. I did not know who she was, she was all modesty and never even gave an inkling of a suggestion she was a bass player herself. A few years later I recognized her on stage, with Prince. Say no more :). It did give me kind of an inferiority complex that I have never really recovered from since. But everyone has to know his place on the ladder. Rightly so.
GET YOUR BASS MERCH! >>> basstheworldcom.creator-spring.com/
Made her coffee every day for a year, very humble woman. She never seemed boasty, and were very kind!
That is one of the most important jobs!
She's Danish, humble people.
I'd like to meet her then. I'd be happy with just an autograph from her personally.
Ida has a light about her. Seems like a wonderful woman.
The first bass line killed me, and sent me to funk heaven. I see what you saw, Prince

Such a sweet and kind personality, and such a great musician. Bass is such a beautiful, powerful instrument, if it is in the hands of someone like Ida. Thanks for the video.
I can see why Prince wanted you in his band. Very nice!! Thank you for sharing of yourself Ida!

I think this lady just pulled me out of a Covid 19 depression
it will go away eventually
Definitely she did it 👏
Love this comment!
I play a little on lead. every since they sat me down at church I'm not learning or playing much no more .but this can get me goin
Anyone else out there who keeps watching the first 30 seconds over and over and over and over . . . Love her groove!
I love how practical Ida is, one of the most underrated bass players around.
Who underrates her?
@@THX-vp9fz general community, why you coming at me about lifting her up. Pick a different comment to start a Friday fight over.
@@betterwithrum Oh where did i start a fight? I only asked whos underrating her, whats wrong with that?
Underrated? ...
She played with Prince!
Loved the story about Prince and the set lists and the inspiration to get lit fret markers at the top of the neck. Beautiful bass and playing, really nice.
She has the same shyness that Prince had, and so much talent and skill behind it. Tusen tak.
she was born to play this instrument. very inspiring.
may i know you please ?
Jared S - 100% agree with you Jared :)

@@haraldpettersen3649 Exactly. If it can be done, everybody can do it. To be trained is key.
The set list story is crazy. It must have been a lot of pressure but exciting and brilliant fun.
Serious groover, and an impeccable tone. What a player.

That last thing she played like spoke to my soul ❤
Thank you Ida! For pursuing your dream which no doubt always comes with sacrifices. I appreciate the richness and prowess of your craft. You are one of the greatest. May God grant you long life and prosperity.
Much love & respect.
She's just amazing!! Love all her records!!

That 3rdeyegirl album was some of the best Prince music in years. Ida is amazing!
She’s great all around with such a vibe you can sense
Her right hand technique is really insane.
Very humble, full sympathy, full of talent, very experienced musician! Awesome playing!
Ida is a massive inspiration and such an incredible player. I LOVE her playing.
She’s an exemplary bassist. Love her !
She is a freakin' MONSTER!!! Nothing but respect for her skills!
Any musician guy/girl that has work,played with, such the like of Prince,Michael Jackson,Quincy Jones,Chaka Kahn, Bowie just to name a few.
Are totally on a different level of musicianship and maturity in their playing! Two thumbs up to her, for sure....
Ya man any musician that has worked with Justin Beiber, Avicii, MArtin Garix, Cardi B is on another level.
@@humanactivated1017 thats is true to be fair
Dynamics and articulation on that last passage. Impressive.
The most chill, unassuming bass player I've ever seen
Love her playing and sound. Definitely not my style, but I like it when she does it hehe.
Great bass too!
Wow.... Such great feel and timing in your play and your bass is a work of art and the tone rocks!
”Prince never played the same set list!" which means like you gotta work hard 24/7.
The man kept his band on their toes RIP Prince
@@aztecwhistle9122 I saw prince live with Sheila as Drummer amazing show !!!
Yes you are correct! I have seen him live many times! Saginaw and Detroit MI, LA ,Minneapolis and at Paisley Park! He was truly a amazing performer! It was a very sad day when he died! Just feeling some kind of way about his death. 😔
I played with PRINCE.....enough said :D incredible!
Simply beautiful playing. One with the instrument. Thank you for sharing this video.
thanks for your job and worked with Prince... you are a good music player... thank you to be here
You KNOW you got it going on and please never stop! So INCREDIBLE! I'm definitely going to check out the web series for sure
Beautiful and wonderful, I'm your fan here in Brazil !
Ida you are such an inspiration for me learning Bass. Thank you for being awesome!!!! Also that bass is beautiful.
Such a great player, musician and soul
The fluro dots are genius. You're a huge asset to bass playing Ida!
Truly a great player I’ve been following her since pre prince days at Namm TC Electronic Booth
Slick foxy funky, and that's just the playing.
I love Ida's style.
Love you Ida ❣️. Following you since Prince's brand, you're a shining star and a blessed musician.
Omg you sound incredible. Love your setup and interface. And your basses!!!! I'm so trying my best to get to ur level.
In a world full of amazing funk bass players, you are my favorite!
She's brilliant with a feel that inspires me to play better with more space.
Thank you Ida! You rock (or funk? 😂) and it’s always great to see you playing.
when she plays that bass! W.O.W !! just incredible!
Beautiful person. Beautiful bass. Magic hands 🙏
this was a fantastic video!! ida is such an amazing bass player, and that bass is fire!!! thanks for the video.

You're sexist. Her breasts and vagina have NOTHING to do with her ability to play funk.
Great . I love funky music too. You play so good. Thank you for sharing
What an amazing bassist! Thank you for sharing your insights!
Wonderful. So transparent and clear and insightful.
Can't see your fretboard and don't know for sure what song could be next. Don't get more challenging than that. What an awesome player.
With Prince....
Very nice playing and bass! Thank yall for her interview. I'll definitely try the pure blues strings
She is such a great bassplayer...and dat sound ! 🖤👍👍👍
those hands baby!!! thats where the tone come from..so dynamic and versatile...see why prince chose you...i would have too..
Excellent I love your sound and your feel. Great playing!
She is the real deal for sure. And her albums/songs are so much fun!
"Rubber toy in my bathtub" is the party track!
Love you Ida....Fantastic fantastic....Wow!
Wonderful tone and sensitivity! Enjoyed that introduction immensely...thank-you Ida...keep on rockin’
Thankyou Ms Nielson ! Wow . . . you are inspiring!
Incredibile, non ho parole 😮👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯👍👍👍💪💪💪😀💥💥💥
Thank you Ida!
I really enjoy your musicianship and positive attitude.
Never understood "more cowbell".
MORE IDA!
Humble and such a KILLER Player !!
I love that bass sound! Beautiful bass and You are a beautiful being and a wonderful bassist!
Lovely! She says and SHOWS who she played with. That's what I'm talking about. Thanks for passing on what you've been given!
Che bello saper suonare così il basso. Fantastico
So beautiful!! And the bass is nice too. ;-) Black and gold. So awesome.
Love this lady!
I’m all about the DR Pure Blues nickel 45-105 set too!
Pretty much put them on everything, except the old P Bass with flats! LOL
I wish they had that bass tone and mix on every song, not just in demos or funk. Because you can hear how clean and how talented she is.
I´s so good to see Ida on a regular basis here on the channel and let´s not forget Prince who did so much for bringing outstanding female musicians to our awareness...
Thank you Gregor for featuring Ida Nielsen!
What an incredible talent !! Hats off to you, Ms.
Just realized Mr. Sklar commented ...talk about being in the presence of giants !!
Truly inspiring mastery! Beautiful solo!
She is fantastic and makes time for the fans after the shows
It's so good... Im am about to cry
She knows and plays all the great Funk bassists. She knocked it out of the park w/ Prince and 3rd Eye Girl.....
Really enjoyed this video showcasing one of my favorite bass players. Gotta have that FUNK! 🔥
So humble! Really like that.
Such a sweet person and amazing player! Great vibe..
Her ghost-noted style is phenomenal🔥🔥🔥🔥 she's power
Sounded like popcorn being popped! 🤣
Very good fantastic, the bass si a beautiful instrument, sound and execution perfect, best regards from Ecuador
I like this sound and her love for music
My former neighbour was a jazz bassist for over 70 years. She was a badass. Upright and Fender.
What a lovely personality, nice sig bass, amazing playing.
That tone at the end was so surreal
She is one amazing bass player. I will never forget how we were - totally by chance - seated next to each other in the backstage area at some festival, like 15 years ago. I did not know who she was, she was all modesty and never even gave an inkling of a suggestion she was a bass player herself. A few years later I recognized her on stage, with Prince. Say no more :). It did give me kind of an inferiority complex that I have never really recovered from since. But everyone has to know his place on the ladder. Rightly so.
She is so cool! Prince's last bassist Mono Neon I discovered recently he is very funky and interesting
nothing like being in the right place at the right time... the winning combination!
Maravillosas, la música y la ejecutante.Felicitaciones desde Ecuador!!!
hats off madame!!!!!you amazing bass player
