(Spunked them all out, over these many great musical suggestions...) It's as though the mods get pleasure from controlling how much one can react... Well!!! I can still use symbols to create faces!!! 🙂 You'll never take that away from me!! ...and then this... (Can't seem to find the Red Hot Chilli Peppers link, but...) That guitar intro riff is completely ripped off by Flea on rhcp-around the world!!!... Anyone?!. No?!... Anyone?... “Shame on you Flea, shame!!" Wow, yes... I wonder whether he did it as a tongue in cheek homage? Quote

Hellzero Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 No more TLRT's. Love Budgie too. Very ramjamesque sounding and built. Reminds me also of Randy California's Spirit. Who was there first ? Quote

Davo-London Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Burke Shelley was one of the reasons I took up bass. Andy McCluskey anyone? Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark. Just saying ... Are we playing a game of pointless here? Davo 1 1 Quote
Hellzero Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Yep, always loved his way of playing (the same thing) on the two first records, like this : Edited February 4, 2020 by Hellzero Spelling 1 Quote
Hellzero Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) So let's not forget Curt Smith from Tears for Fears. In case, some of you don't know him, here's one of their early hit : Edited February 4, 2020 by Hellzero Video linked Quote
Hellzero Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Yes, that's Julian Cope with The Teardrop Explodes. Saw them in the 80's, but have seen Julian Cope many times for the Saint Julian tour. He wasn't playing bass on stage anymore, except for some Teardrop Explodes tunes when he played the bass, ... because he was climbing everywhere... Remember this : And this : 1 Quote

Bolo Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 15 year old me found inspiration with Corinne from Acrostichon and Jan-Chris from Gorefest among many others: Quote
BassTractor Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Since we're doing pics and vids, here's Emerson Lake and Palmer's last bit of "Karn Evil 9", called "3rd Impression", live in 1974, with aforementioned Greg Lake on bass and throat. Me, I lurves it despite Emerson's eternal sloppy playing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz6Mj8cROJw Edited February 4, 2020 by BassTractor Quote
Roger2611 Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Arturo Bassick, so cool he even has Bass in his surname! 2 Quote
Bassassin Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Here's one for current-gen prog fans - Mariusz Duda from Riverside: Have done the lead vox/bass thing myself in a couple of bands, always satisfying to nail both parts without compromising either. Unfortunately no video evidence exists (at least not in a digital format) to back up these claims. Plus I have a rubbish voice. 2 Quote
doomed Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Pete Butler, 2 Sick Monkeys. Just a bass and drums. Quote

Cuzzie Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Can’t believe it took 3 pages to bring Glenn Hughes up. Chris Kosnik - The Atomic Bitchwax is awesome at both. Mark Hoppus, Kim Deal, Dusty Hill, Tal Wilkenfeld But 4 pages in - dUg Pinnick not yet mentioned- the man is a legend 2 Quote
NJE Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 I may have missed it but has anyone mentioned Sting yet? Justin Currie - Del Amitri Tyson Ritter - All American Rejects Pete Cetera and Jason Scheff - Chicago Tal Wilkenfeld - Solo stuff Troy Sanders - Mastodon Brian Wilson - The Beach Boys Kip Winger - Winger 2 Quote
Hobbayne Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Jimi Goodwin from The Doves and his upside down bass playing antics. 😁 Quote
