What get's Alex going? Probably me yesterday Alex, you have my apologies, I can be an opinionated and undiplomatic twat sometimes.

I always liked Head For Backstage Pass by Jeff Beck. Really underrated song. Wilbur Bascomb on bass.....very cool.

also

Do you know Squarepusher? by Squarepusher.......IDM...you got to love it.

finally Reza/Giant Steps/Reza (Reprise) by mr Pastorius himself from the Invitation album. SOme awesome moments on that album especially his furiously chainsaw-like fuzz at the end where he has a few licks then plays the folk kind of riff with the entire band....absolutelly breathtaking.

Quite a few things off the Californication album - Easily, Around The World and Emit Remmus. And from Mother's Milk - Good Time Boys, Nobody Weird Like Me, Stone Cold Bush and Johnny Kick A Hole In The Sky. Easily (groan) RHCP's 2 best album's - yes, both better than BSSM.

Didn't know you were into Suarepusher Ben! He's insanely talented, not my sorta thing though.

[quote name='silddx' post='248060' date='Jul 25 2008, 08:01 PM']Dude, who are the vids of? Forgive my ignorance! Love the first one, really inspiring and humbling. EDIT : Dwayne (DW) Wright?

And I completely agree about Alien3, it's a great film. Deep treatise on social alienation, bit like Lord of the Flies for grown ups. It's a subtle file that took me three times of watching to get past my expectations of Aliens the sequel.[/quote]

The first is Dwayne Wright, and the second is Maurice Fitzgerald.

And thats another person to the list

Keep coming back to Muse - Black Holes & Revelations. Audacious!

[Finbar]

Limp Bizkit. Any and all of their stuff.

[teen t-shirt]

at the moment, i'm more into my heavier stuff, slipknots new song, stone sour, soil, avenged sevenfold, and strangely pinball wizard, mind you probably because i know it aint the hadest song to play but i was happy when i managed it,

[ironside1966]

Lost interest in playing bass for many years, Ian Dury always gave me urge to play again though I never bothered until now.

Liquid tension experiment - Biaxident.

The most uplifting piece ever for me. Fluid melodic interweaving lines from Petrucci and Rudess on guitar and keyboards respectively, Tony levin holding it down on the bass front with a fretless and Portnoy covering the drums. Superb melody line and it builds to a great crescendo finish. Awesome instrumental track, I must go and give it a spin ....
