discreet Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 [quote name='BottomE' timestamp='1327763630' post='1516436'] Great thread. What a time it must have been to be a bass player. [/quote] What? It's [i]still[/i] a time to be a bass player! Quote
Marvin Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 The music, good, great bass lines. However, we must consider the 'fashion' of the time. It has been my long held opinion that the clothes one had to wear in the 70's and early 80's has scared a generation Quote
