Any virtuoso musicians should take a leaf out of Billy's book. He could play anyone one under the table and be a dick about it (like some guys i know) but instead he is 100% humble, listens to critique VERY well and adapts to suit the style. Less is more, and applying build up if the songs ramps up. A real session guy! someone i have always looked up to since i started bass in 1996

this video helps me a lot, and not in the "playing hability", but how you approach a recording session, always calm, always listening what other people are saying, taking care of what the music needs more than trying to be the "best ", and that mistakes are part of the process. thanks for the video and to billy for being an inspiration!

Really impressed. I've never seen Billy recording before and I'm really impressed on how quickly he does it. Especially the bit where he is asked to do the small run to complement the fill and he's only able to pull it off in the recording and manages to nail it the first time.

I love the way Billy makes no secret he plays purely by feel rather than by numbers. Great tone and incredibly talented guy. Great video, insightful and relaxed. Great to see how people work and record in the real world. He seems very passionate about his playing and his basses. Not had the privilege of meeting him but would love to spend time with the guy.

That was priceless! I met Billy in '83, in Albany NY. I just got out of the army. My gal at the time said, "You gotta see this band, Talas, they have the best bassist EVER! I was immediately smitten with envy (bass being my primary instrument, and she being "my gal" LOL!) So I went to Talas at a local club in Schenectady NY. He and the other two band mates walked down from the upstairs dressing room. He had this guitar Strap with blinking lights. The house lights were down. All I saw, moving in the darkness were blinking lights; I was intrigued and filled with anticipation. They hit the stage, with, I think, "High Speed On Ice." I was no longer jealous; but a fan. I met Billy two other times in Los Angeles. Awesome guy, great musician. Thanks for sharing.

This is how great sounding mixes/records get started! With great track takes!

Great video guys. I've been listening to Billy's stuff since the eighties. A few of us met Billy last year at the London Bass Guitar Show and got to hang out with for hours with him after the show. The guy is not only a living legend, but a true gentleman. The folks that say never meet your heroes, you'll be disappointed....... are so blatantly wrong!!!!

Every time I've had the chance to ask Billy ( at his seminars ) on how he records his bass parts for songs, I seem to get passed over ( haha--can't blame others for " important " questions like " What was it like to tour with David Lee Roth? " ). But this video is AWESOME! It shows Billy getting into the mind set of a songwriter as opposed to, say, flying over the track with riffs and fills. He's clearly in the groove and locked in with the drums. And he's a great guy too!

Highly instructive. Billy Sheehan at work while also lending insight into the creative process, paying homage to influences such as Rocco Prestia, and providing amusing anecdotes such as the one that traces the genealogy of his signature Yamaha bass back the basic DNA of the Fender Precision. Question: If the Fender Precision Bass was named for its being fretted and hence more precisely in tune (for the benefit of reassigned guitar players), then would a fretless model be called the Fender "Imprecision" Bass or would it keep the original designation? Great interview, Gentlemen.

This vid is so awesome. I've noticed there are 100's of videos on micing guitar speakers but almost none regarding bass. I was wondering if you find yourself micing bass rigs in the future could you film it? Most vids out there cover direct and amp Sans/sans amp etc. I'd like to learn about close and room mics along with what to expect with 10, 12, 15 inch characteristics and dealing with the tweeter. My brother is a fantastic slap bass player so any advice on compression with different styles would also be appreciated. Cheers!

Hi +Bart Nettle Agreed! Billy is an amazing musician!! Have a marvellous time recording and mixing, many thanks Warren

Mega. So great to see. Tone sounds amazing.

Watching Billy recording is soooooo cool! Love the way he just digs in and works and works until it's done.

Great song. Good seeing the BAE guy in on it (was it his song?). I loved the bass part on the drum fill. Fun watching him record and everyone giving their input and doing their thing. Thanks again, Warren.

Hi Endezeichen Grimm agreed 100%!! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren

I just feel like i have discovered a great great treasure finding this channel.... Thanks so much!

I met Billy back in 1981 when his band was playing at a local college. At the end of their set, I went up to Billy and said, "yeah, I play bass too" LOL (young and stupid LOL). I have to say, he was the most generous, passionate about music and just overall nice guys I have met. After seeing this video, it seems he's still that same great guy!! His playing...... AMAZING...... and has always been. You could hear that he spent hours a day plucking those 4 strings!!! Great guy, great video!!!

Hi. Great video. Every time i see how billy plays, i know i play just crap. He's awesome. I have a question. Where is the amp? In the same or in a different room?
