Sounds a bit of a trick question Yorks.
Two Bassists, (and both producers) worked on the first two albums I think.
So I will go with Nick Movshon. (I think I have spelled it right)

I won't name the other one in case I am wrong. :)

The Dianne Birch album I did not know about.

I will do a player in the morning, just on my way out.

No mate, although might of been on some of these albums as well.
A lot of the guys like AL and others, tended to appear on the same albums.

Yep, Neil Stubenhaus.
As well as all the adverts, TV and Film scores, his album credits list is pretty impressive.
One of the real Studio masters.

Chuffin heck! I genuinely( and honestly) went to bed last night thinking I bet he chooses Neil Stubenhaus in the morning and you did! I know it sounds trite to say that after the reveal, but I reckon I must have a 6th sense!! Scary or what? Now if only I could do the same with the Lotto.....
