Pino Palladino - Bass Players You Should Know. Ep1

  • So let's talk about the mighty Pino Palladino.
    While most bassists are known for playing with one band or working within a single musical style, Pino Paladino has built a career with a staggering diversity of projects that goes well beyond the bass. During the 80s he put fretless bass on the pop music map with Paul Young, Don Henley and numerous others. In the 90s he was called for sessions with everyone from Eric Clapton to Elton John. Next came his hook up with D’Angelo on the singer’s heralded album, Voodoo… not to mention replacing the late John Entwistle in the Who, touring with Nine Inch Nails, Simon and Garfunkel or the John Mayer Trio!
    In this video we're going to be looking at his career, the artists he's recorded with, his favourite gear and everything in-between.
    If you enjoy this biographical video essay, make sure you let me know who you want us to cover next in the series.
    As always, see you in the shed...
    Scott :)

    I got to hang out with Pino 10+ years ago in Chicago. I knew he was a musician but I thought it was just one of my boss's friends. He came out with a few of us for some late night drinks, had some laughs. Night wound down, said he had to get some sleep for a gig the next day. "Alright, good luck man! Nice meeting ya." ……. Saw him on TV the next day playing Wrigley Field with The Who.
    Had noooo idea.

    I got to meet Pino this summer when he was with Mayer. He was kind, humble and soft spoken. Friendly as could be. We chatted for just a couple minutes (I didn't want to be that guy) and he was gracious enough to pose for a quick picture. Awesome 5 minutes for me. He was as he appears to be on all the interviews I've seen. Just an awesome person and an amazing player.

    Pino is a bass GOD!!! His lines in Paul Young's songs turned me on to fretless when I was a kid in 1985 and then later I heard Mick Karn (hint hint). Because of them both, my first bass had to be a fretless no matter what others said and I'm happy I went that way almost 30 years ago. Great video, Scott!

      I first saw Pino play when I was 17 years old - 31st December 1981 when The Police played in Edinburgh, Scotland. The support band were Jools Holland and The Millionaires, the bass player being a young Pino!!!
      I had been playing bass for a couple of years at that point, but seeing Pino play changed my whole viewpoint of what a bass player could be! His playing was incredibly solid, with plenty of fills which didn't interfere with the other musicians. I had never seen anyone play with such a great sound, fluidity, dexterity, and sheer groove like that before. I instantly thought, "I want to play like THAT"!! I've been a fan ever since, and an honoured to have since spent time him personally.
      (Incidentally, the bass he was using on the Police support gig was a red Fender P-Bass with an added J-Bass pickup, no pickguard - instead it had a small metal curved cover plate over the control cavity)

Most of us will never come up with the kind of parts he did, no matter how good we are. It worked for him, but that is no guarantee it will work for us.

      Sometimes being illiterate helps if only for the idea that a person's approach is different. This can be especially hard for classically trained musicians to understand. They may be often if not exclusively rooted in how something "feels" and much less within the mathematical confines of how something is supposed to be played.
      Certainly the shorthand to understanding more complex scales, chords and melodic relationships -- that is being musically literate will inevitably improve a person's palette when writing but it's not impossible for someone to find success otherwise.

    D'Angelo.... September 17th, 1999 it was the first episode of the 4th season Chris Rock show. Spike Lee was the guest. I was 20. Embarrassingly, I didn't know who Pino, D'Angelo or ?uest was but when I heard Chicken Grease played live, I was so transformed by it, the moment it was done I got in my car, drove to the local Borders books and bought the album. There is no bass playing on any album before or since that has done more to influence how I treat the instrument today. For me, the best bass players are the ones who understand how to organically become a part of the song, Pino's playing on that album sounds like the natural world wrote it. Like the ocean carved it out of a cliff face. The whole album flows that way.

    I first got introduced to Pino when he was on tour with D'angelo for Voodo. I can remember sitting in the small theater wondering who the "giant" was hanging in the background wearing a leather jacket and pants...? and then I heard him play.... Goodness Gracious. A few years later I got dragged to a John Mayer concert at another small theater, and it was his 1st go with the Trio idea, and I gained new respect for John Mayer as a musician when I saw who he had on stage with him Steve and Pino, because I knew those guys could play with anyone, but decided to go on the road with John Mayer.

  • @dennisloobman
    @dennisloobman 2 года назад

    The big ‘thing’ at the time was the brilliant funk styles of players like Bootsy Collins and Stanley Clark but Pino was already a master of ‘slap and pull’, he was playing with a jazz funk band in a place called ‘The Stowaway’ on Stow Hill in Newport. This was the first time I had ever hear a slap bass and I was blown away.
    Then one sunny afternoon (must have been around 1974 or 5) we were all sitting in Sofia Gardens with acoustic guitars and Pino comes walking up and says “hey guys, I’ve just discovered the instrument of the future”.
    But hearing that coming from one of the best musicians in Cardiff at the time those words "the instrument of the future" kind of stuck with me, and sure enough a while later he got the Paul Young gig, and the rest is history.
    I looked at him and he looked at me, I said “you play bass don’t you” and he said “you come from Cardiff don’t you”

      @@CNick75 Karn also played clarinet, oboe, saxophone, dida, flute, guitar, keyboards, percussion etc etc. He made some wonderful and inexplicably ignored solo albums too, in "Titles", "Dreams of reason produce monsters", "Each eye a path", "More better different", "Three part species" and "The Concrete twin". Then there is "Polytown" with Terry Bozzio and David Torn and the Dalis car album: "The Waking hour" with Peter Murphy of Bauhaus fame. I could go on but won't bore you with how he was also a very talented sculptor blah blah blah!

      Phil Collins' solo stuff is probably the best known stuff. He's in the videos once you see him you'll remember him because he's long hair greying and a big ol' beard.
      He's also played with quite a few of The LA singer/songwriter types James Taylor, Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon.

      Tom Cass There are many good players out there, for sure, and I truely appreciate their work too (I mean, have you heard the new Dirty Loops Single... Henriks bass playing is like from another planet on this track!) But these are my top 5, my most influential, if you will. And in the case of Pino, Jamerson and Miller I would argue, that they brought bass playing in itself to a new and unheard level.
