I felt like I knew Rocco after watching this video.He not only shares his approach to to the bass, but also let's you in on his observations of life. He is understated but deep, if your paying attention.I recommend watching this when you can have the VCR connected to a stereo system. You will learn how to "groove" in all aspects of your life.Click Here to see more reviews about: Bass Day '98 (2000)
