Rocco Prestia
Live at Bass Day DVD

Bass lessons and performances with Rocco Prestia of Tower of Power!

Francis Rocco Prestia has earned a place among the all-time great bass stylists. As a member of Tower of Power, Rocco set a standard of funk playing that bassists still aspire to. Here, accompanied by TOP members, David Garibaldi and Jeff Tamelier, along with original member Lenny Pickett, he performs a burning set of seven TOP classics, including “Oakland Stroke,”“Soul Vaccination,”“Squib Cakes,” and “What is Hip?” plus tunes from his acclaimed solo album. He also talks about creating a groove, his early days with TOP and more.

Also included is a 30-minute lesson with Rocco, during which he talks about developing bass parts, his influences, and his approach to bass technique, including his use of ghost notes and muting. Plus, he demonstrates many of his classic bass lines.
