It seems there's been more than one band called Om and the one I know of also has some brilliant bass playing.

Good stuff - leaning towards psych to my ears.

Hatfield and The North - The Rotters Club. Richard Sinclair’s tone is absolutely extraordinary and he sings beautiful while playing as well. Such a great band from the Canterbury scene.

I suspect many bassists of my generation learned from Lemmy's propulsive playing on Hawkwind's 'Space Ritual'

 

 

Yep, this & the Sabbath compilation "We Sold Our Souls For Rock"N"Roll" is where it all began for me.
