2001: A Space Odyssey (film)

I don't believe Deodato's 1972 recording was used in a 1968 film, but it's likely that the "(2001)" in the title of his version alludes to the film, and possibly even attempts to brandjack it. jnestorius^(talk) 14:59, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's "likely" it alludes to the film? What else could it possibly refer to? (Nothing) Even now, the Strauss piece (I guess) is popularly referred to more often as the Theme from 2001 than by its name. I imagine that was even more the case in the years immediately following 1968. 110.20.157.59 (talk) 03:43, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Whose bass solo

The (short) bass solo after the first head/theme/melody is everywhere referred to as a Stanley Clarke solo. But it sounds to me like Ron Carter's acoustic bass, (maybe overdubbed) over much a softer electric bass solo. The licks the bass plays are what Ron plays, plus it has the low C extension which Ron started using in the 1970s (to play down to a super-low C), which is pretty rare; I don't think I've ever heard another jazz bass player use one. I'm not familiar with Stanley's double bass playing, but I'm very familiar with Ron's, and it sure sounds like Ron to me. 110.20.157.59 (talk) 03:50, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Now I read "Then, I asked Ron Carter to bring to the session that bass which has the extra string in C,” tells Deodato." ... Ah, it's just that Ron has been turned up so much in the mix, and Stanley down so much, that Stanley's solo is barely audible above Ron's bass, so what Ron plays sounds like 'the solo'. 110.20.157.59 (talk) 04:13, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
