FinnDave Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 I have no interest in musical 'fashions', who's in or who's out, but I have recently been listening to this again, and it reminded what a bloody good bass player Lemmy was and how his playing really drove Hawkwind back in the day. If I could play with this sort of melodic intensity, I'd die happy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoA8zu1ZTSI Quote

RhysP Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Lemmy on "Space Ritual" was a massive influence on my bass playing. Quote

YouMa Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) I hated motorhead but space ritual changed my life the bass and the whole ethos of it.The next big bass player in my life was gary mountfield and loads of roses bass has that great groovy sound. Im very soul funk influenced now but the bass on ritual i think although not as technical was very rooted in that groovy style on a lot of awesome tracks. Edited March 23, 2016 by YouMa Quote

Lemmy goes into the chorus for bar or two before he realises the rest of the band haven't got there yet! Wonderful stuff, makes Space Ritual sound really professional Quote
