Spyro Gyra: Not Unlike That

Mike Matthews sent us a video simply (and correctly) entitled “Scott Ambush Amazing Bass Solo.” After a little digging, we found the full video, which is taken from a Spyro Gyra performance at Jazz In Marciac back in 2014.

Ambush kicks off “Not Unlike That” with a slap groove that brings in the full band. After driving the jam from the bottom end, he takes the lead again with a solo at the 3:10 mark. He plays with different rhythms and feels before bringing the band back in.
