davepb24 Posted May 20, 2020 Posted May 20, 2020 Possibly my favourite female vocalist of all time Julianne Regan of All About Eve started as bassist with Gene Loves Jezebel (who I always think are the goth band from up the road in Cannock but they aren't ...) 2 Quote

Following John Glascock falling ill (and sadly dying a little while later) with heart problems, Anderson took over bass duties for the recording of the Stormwatch album. Mind you, there's not much with either strings or a blow hole that he can't play. And he didn't just go through the motions - some of the bass work is hard driving verging on funky. I love Ian's bass playing on that album. Very Glascock-esque. (Or maybe John's parts were heavily directed by Mr. A, but I don't think so.) 1 Quote
arthurhenry Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Not as if it's unknown, but worth mentioning that Tom Scholtz's bass playing on the first two Boston albums is superbe. 1 Quote
thodrik Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 I heard that Robbie WIlliams wrote Rudebox while playing bass... Quote

Bassfinger Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Johnny Depp is another multi instrumentalist. Hes a pretty decent slide guitar player as well. His favourite song is Slap my beach Up 😗 Quote

CameronJ Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Nathan King - Mark King’s brother. Was surprised to see him demoing basses for Andertons and doing a pretty sterling job of it too! Quote

He’s primarily a bassist but plays guitar for Level 42 because, you know, they got a guy who can play a bit already 1 Quote

On the whole I prefer his playing to his brother's these days. 2 Quote

He plays bass on the title track(have you ever been to) electric ladyland. If I remember rightly they talk about on classic albums. It’s superb Quote
