SamuelBLupowitz Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 So gooooood. Not a keyboard-related comment, but I'm always fascinated by the combination of performance, mic placement, and processing that work together to achieve those big fat drum tones in these tiny studio spaces (live in the room with other players, no less).

yannis D Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Very nice It's funny how much these young guys owe to MMW in style - even Larry, an excellent player of his own BTW Quote Be grateful for what you've got - a Nord, a laptop and two hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adan Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Very nice It's funny how much these young guys owe to MMW in style - even Larry, an excellent player of his own BTW For some reason I don't see a video link in the OP. But the Louis Cole Sucks one is very nice. Kind of new territory for Scary Pockets-Goldings into a slightly looser more jammy format. It works. Yeah, Yannis, in my opinion, MMW were real innovators. When they hit the scene in the early to mid 90's I was heavily into the East Coast jam band scene. Their sound was fresh and it just blew everybody's minds. The idea of a simple groove-based head as a launching pad for spacey improv was eagerly embraced by countless bands that followed.

yannis D Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 The same goes for me Adan. When, with my drummer friend, we created our band back in 2000, MMW was an essential part of our aesthetics and inspiration. A little too much i would say I think these guys (and the hole jam band scene) came into the jazz world like punksters came into the art rock world scene back in the late 70s: as a reminiscent that music should some times be a little simpler and rooted somewhere than plain virtuosity and patterns. I don't know if i make myself clear here but i think you get my point Quote Be grateful for what you've got - a Nord, a laptop and two hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Azzarello Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I love the stand Larry's using for his SK - Looks a lot like a Wurlizer (but shouldn't this thread be in the "Stands" thread? Stevie and Layla - very cool... Maybe the Dirty Loops guys will pick up on the idea Quote Pat http://www.patazzarello.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MathOfInsects Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Scary Pockets is filled with insanely talented folks and I keep trying but for some reason I can't find a part of me that likes a single thing they do. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. Quote Now out! "Mind the Gap," a 24-song album of new material. www.joshweinstein.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzpiano88 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Very nice It's funny how much these young guys owe to MMW in style - even Larry, an excellent player of his own BTW I had to look up what MMW is. Never heard them. That probably says something about me. But Larry is a monster and I'm betting that he wouldn't put them on his radar of influences from everything I've heard him produce.

Docbop Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Larry and Ben. Larry has a bit of a Gabor Szabo vibe happening, for those old enough to remember Gabor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Grace Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I just realized that I made a careless mistake in posting the "Layla" video above. I didn't want to start yet another Scary Pockets thread, so I just bumped the most recent one I could find without taking the time to realize that this one was as much about Larry Goldings as it was about Scary Pockets. It seems obvious, I know, but somehow I missed that fact the other night. My apologies to Larry and to our forum for my off-topic mistake. (The video I posted above has Jacob Luttrell on keyboards and lead vocals.) Unfortunately, it's too late to delete it now.
