Working the Bass Part on Over the Edge of the Pop Narcotic
It’s all about the bass tonight. Not the big radio hit, but all the music where great bass vocals are featured (well bass and some baritone, and alto in the case of the ladies that made the set) or where there is great bass (largely acoustic), bass guitar or bass drums played. Tough show to pull together. Popular music favors tenor and higher vocals, and a lot of the great bass riffs belong to the top 40 hits, but I managed to find some great music that will surprise you. Enjoy!
