Thanks for sharing these, I don't 'do' Instagram so I am particularly grateful.
John's a lovely guy and his bass lines challenged my prejudices back in the day.
I assumed that Duran couldn't be any good because they were just a pop band for teenage girls to scream at.
Then my drummer at the time told me their bassist used the same bass as me. They have a bassist? It's not all programming? Wait, they're a real band?
Then I listened properly and he blew me away.
So grateful he's doing these, it's always interesting to hear a bit of background to how a band worked. And of course always wonderful to have the bass without the surrounding clutter. Sorry, other instruments.
Yeah sure they're homemade, and other people doing similar things have professional help putting them together. But who cares? I'm there for the bass.
