bartelby Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 [quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1510151171' post='3404317'] I remember that band U2. They did TRY and make people like their offerings for free. But thankfully, there was a way around it for Apple users.

fleabag Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 [quote name='Barking Spiders' timestamp='1509977995' post='3402973'] Def Leppard's synthetic, sterile mush that is Hysteria.

Cat Burrito Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I saw the article and thought it was great. I was really pleased to see it. I'm sure a lot of people start out on bass because of players like Rick Savage. An early influence for me was Dee Dee Ramone but now I am older I would rather listen to James Jamerson or Carol Kaye. I still smile and feel good when I see a mention of Dee Dee though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
