Of all the Tom Jenkinson recordings available, this is next to the least essential (the least essential would be disc 2 of "Do You Know Squarepusher"). It's not that it's lousy music, but as a listening experience it's just . . meh. Sounds exactly like you'd expect it to given its title. Tom is an exceptionally talented guy, no doubt, but, in my amateur opinion, it's next to impossible to create a well-developed track out of only one bass guitar.
Seeing him perform these tracks live would have been a kick, but I don't know that I'll ever get that chance. As a document of his talents on the bass outside a studio environment, this does the job. But I can't imagine putting this disc into heavy rotation.
I don't play bass, though if you do this might be useful as a technical blueprint. I am a Squarepusher completist, and as such am happy to own "Solo Electric Bass 1," but I can't say I'm drooling in anticipation of "Solo Electric Bass 2." And if you pony up $36 (Amazon's current list price) for the CD, you've got more money than sense, which is a state I'd like to try sometime.
Ich bin begeistert, wie Tom hier mal eine ganz andere Seite von sich zeigt.
Und der Mann kann Bass spielen, keine Frage.
Da ich gerne Instrumentalstücke höre, vorwiegend mit Gitarren gespielt, kann ich dieser CD eine sehr gute Note geben.
Die Tracks an sich haben keine Namen, was aber völlig ok geht.
Man kann die CD in einem Rutsch durchhören (Liveaufnahme)und ich war sehr überrascht über den flamencoartigen Einschlag und natürlicherweise auch jazzigen Themen, nur eben auf einem 6-saitigen Bass gespielt.
