This man changed my life in 1992. He was in Cagliari and gave us a tremendous three day masterclass. I was starting with the electric bass at that time. He suggested me to start singing in a choir. Now after all this time I am really grateful. And finally thanks to is inspiration I start playing double bass and I am so happy and alive.
That’s a wonderful story!
I practice outdoors as much as possible for the exact same reason: pure sound, no reflections
Splendid. You've finally got Dave Holland on the channel.
Well done, sir.
;-)
Thanks so much! It was incredible to meet him.
One of my all-time favorite bassists. If you haven't already done so, check out Dave's solo rendition of Coltrane's Mr. PC... pure fire!
Great recommendation, it's so good! ruclips.net/video/HHu6rzmUvFI/видео.html
@@DiscoverDoubleBass Great interview with Dave, by the way.. Definitely provided inspiration and food for thought for my own bass playing..
Thank you so much for channelling Dave's experience, I really enjoyed it.
Glad you enjoyed it :-)
One of the all time masters. An incredible musician on the highest level who's always on top of the game. Let's honor this really important man. Dave and JML ... How about a duet of those two?
What an inspiration!
Thanks for watching. This was such a special interview for me.
So much experience and knowledge......
Thank you for sharing this excellent interview
Glad you enjoyed it! :-)
My idol! ❤
What a incredible and a really genuine nice guy Dave Holland, he is right!! Bass players are easy going and really nice guys, well I am. Enjoy listening him speak, maybe Geoff can bring him back and talk about maintenance and storage of your bass, and what to do and not what to do while traveling with your bass on gigs a cross the city, country and international.
Fantastic, i didnt want it to end!
Glad you enjoyed it! It was such a joy to meet Mr Holland and I hope we are able to welcome him back in the future.
Very very interesting and inspiring(Not only for base players)
Congratulations excelent interwied
What an outstanding interview. Great questions, and Dave is so knowledgable and wise about his approach to music. This is both incredibly inspiring and so comforting at the same time. I can relate with so much of what Dave mentions. Brilliant!
Thanks Russ, I really appreciate that and am so pleased you enjoyed it. :-)
Thank you Dave
Inspiring. DH is one of the very best. Miles Davis was no fool.
Super job Geoff!
Thanks David, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :-)
Deep.
John WHO??!
Not sure what your question refers to, but you might be asking about the guitarist Dave Holland was appearing with who is John Schofield.
Ahh, I've just realised that I've been misspelling 'Scofield'. I'm guessing that it was listed incorrectly in the subtitles or text. Apologies for that.
