Bass Player: Jeff Berlin

Another Jeff Berlin/Bruford classic – This is the FULL transcription of the tune. Bilbo ‘learned’ this when he was starting to get into Jazz and Fusion bass players (he thinks he must have been about 19?). Again, he admits that could not get the detail at that point and never really got past the head. It was fantastic to be able to slow it down and hear every detail on the pedals etc. He has promised to try and do the second version of Pump It at some point but not today  It was interesting to note that the ‘solo’ section in this performance was not improvised (Jeff repeats it twice exactly same so it is clearly through composed).
