Marcus Miller 2016 - amazing Turkish music / Blast

As a multi-instrumentalist, Marcus is highly proficient as a keyboardist, clarinetist/bass clarinetist and, primarily, as a world-renowned electric bassist, topping critics' and readers' polls for three decades. His résumé as an A-list player brims with over 500 recording credits as a sideman on albums across the spectrum of musical styles: rock (Donald Fagen and Eric Clapton), Jazz (George Benson, Dizzy Gillespie, Joe Sample, Wayne Shorter and Grover Washington, Jr.), pop (Roberta Flack, Paul Simon and Mariah Carey), R&B (Aretha Franklin and Chaka Khan), hip hop (Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg), blues (Z.Z. Hill), new wave (Billy Idol), smooth jazz (Al Jarreau and Dave Koz) and opera (collaborations with tenor Kenn Hicks and soprano Kathleen Battle).

I'm a Turk and hats off for Marcus Miller. Something in my veins is boiling when listening to this. Arrangements gives me goosebumps. Thank you Sir. I'm hoping for a concert in Turkey.

l started playing bass 40 years ago. This showed me that I never learned how.

If you want to get some work done around the house, on the job, or the computer, this is what need to be playing on repeat. This jam is off the CHAIN!!❤❤❤

İki şehirde de uzun zaman yaşadım, şu anda İstanbul'da yaşamaya devam ediyorum. Yıllardır müzik ile uğraşıyorum ve çok hoşuma gitti. Ne kadar yetenekli bir insan, adam basıyla bildiğin saz çalmış... Güzel şeyler, başarılar dilerim.

[gregoryburton]

Wow!!! The orchestra and his bass are really talking to one another. Outstanding!!!

[ramondy]

every notes seem to be so perfectly placed and its really great thing that Marcus Base guitar stood to lead this whole orchestra. Very seldom a bassist would lead this massive band. Great music and hats off to Marcus.

Again be our Guest in İstanbul after this Pandemic... you’re always welcome 🙏

We had the chance to meet him at the very end of his concert last April in Paris, backstage, and unlike some other artists, he's someone who listens and is accessible...
For the record, he told us that his new album would probably be released this summer ?? Case to follow 🎸

Love Marcus Miller and this is possibly my favorite piece/performance. This reminds me of Brand X Moroccan Roll back in the 80's . Percy Jones was one of the great virtuoso bass players who never recieved due recognition for his genius. I am gratified that Marcus is recognized for his genius.

[auroraborelaris]
