Any decent recording of Die erste Walpurgisnacht! It’s such a freaky piece, one you’d think likelier to have been composed by Felix’s pal Hector Berlioz. A “secular cantata” on a text by Goethe, it’s pro-pagan and anti-Christian. Not your usual Felix fare! Mixed feelings about his adopted religion?

Oh, I just asked ‘cause I’m about to get my first ink ever — and its a big piece, to cover scars. I full sleeve inspired by Redon. Audiobooks it is!

Thanks! That was so fun. And I loved their tight edit, which made me sound far more smart and focused than I am in daily life. Those are two cool guys!

I can’t live without one. Especially for distorted tones. But I’m weird.

The only recording I know of that features four simultaneous Bass VI parts. (That fact that it’s me is a TOTAL coincidence.) youtu.be/zD88LRiBRbY?...

Hope this isn’t dickish but … I have many decades of experience in this area, and I edited Guitar Player magazine for many years. Don’t hesitate to hit me up with any guitar Qs. It’s the least I can do, and thanks for your service. 🫡

You probably already know that Bass VI is the secret sauce on a high percentage of songs by the Cure. 🖤

I followed you for the sci-fi, not the guitar stuff, but hey … as someone who’s played Bass VI on a zillion albums, my #1 piece of advice is to replace the factory roundwounds with a high-end set of flatwounds. That’s what they used in all the great ‘60s rock, pop, and country records.
