The bass player The Crusaders looked for for 15 years. Is this the album version, though? Sounds live.

Sounds like the late great Billy Rogers on guitar?
@jorymilАй бұрын
Larry Carlton was the regular guitarist; pretty sure this is him. Edit: nope, you're right! This is a live recording, and either Wilton or Wayne introduces him right at the end. So _not_ the album version.

@@jorymil Ha I didn’t listen to the end so am glad my guess was right😊 Billy took over for the Images album but sadly he was a man with demons and drugs eventually took him young. To my mind he could have been one of the greats, he had astonishing chops, check out The Guitar Artistry of Billy Rogers CD if you can find it. Other touring guitarists took over, most notably the criminally underrated Barry Finnerty.

Pop’s and Stix had a real special intuitive connection when they played together. A serious lesson in how to play in a rhythm section that grooves to. Be had just by paying attention those two. 💥

The first time I saw him was on TV with Olivia Newton John "Physical" live, he played a solo that blew me away! Luckily, I had my cassette player close by, I recorded it, and couldn't wait to learn it!❤

Didn't really matter... it's not about the isolated track, which wasn't meant to be heard. It's about how it sat in the mix. Period. Leland Sklar made a great point about this. While many strive for a clean, pretty sound this cuts through in the mix better. Live and recorded. One of the funniest comments ever was on an isolated Chris Squire track. The listener clearly didn't get it. He wondered if Chris could play more cleanly.

@@Brad5161 it wasn’t a criticism, but merely an observation. Yes it’s true, they are not supposed to be heard isolated. Yes I’ve heard McCartney, Chris Squire, Chuck Rainy, basslines isolated. And while they’re wonderful to hear and learn from, you have to cut them a bit of slack. I just hope they don’t start isolating. Some of the bass lines that I recorded in the 70s. It might be a little embarrassing

@@RJRKM The great session bassist Marcus Miller once said during one of his clinics that if people could hear a lot of the bass guitar lines from their favorite records isolated, they would hear all kinds of anomalies: Timing discrepancies, instrument hum/buzz, fret noise, intonation issues, etc. To @Brad5161's point, Marcus said that it ultimately came down to how the producers wanted the bass guitar to sound in the mix. TBH I'm surprised at how gritty Louis' tone is on this track. Sounds like he might've been running his bass through one of those Ampeg B15's, a common studio workhorse.
