Yes, absolutely. Quite how he sings over his basslines, I really do not know. 'To Be With You Again' is simply mindboggling. Quote

lowdown Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Will Lee has a good pair of pipes on him. He has a couple of vocal albums out and has been the voice on quite a few advert sessions over the pond. A couple of wobbly bits on this but the ending takes some doing!! Especially when standing in a cake. The band are pretty good as well... Quote
RhysP Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Thundercat should probably be on the list as well, though I find that "Duck through a mangle" bass sound he uses unlistenable after about 30 seconds. 1 1 Quote
Barking Spiders Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Two pages in and till now, no mention of Muttley McLad of The Macc Lads. Shame on you all 🙃 1 Quote

Jonesy Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Dave Peacock. Often under rated as a bass player and over looked in everything, but he has some great lines. Rob Wright. Is often over looked again, but Nomeansno have some great bass lines 1 Quote

Rumple Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Recently found out about Leon Sylvers III, who did a good job or rocking a Rick whilst singing and dancing. Quote
Roger2611 Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 A shout out for Mark Burgess of the Chameleons and of course Bruce Foxton from the Jam 1 Quote
NoRhino Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Alan Lancaster from Status Quo. Nothing shabby about his live bassline and harmony vocal all the way through What You’re Proposing. PS I agree with all previous responses too. Quote

SH73 Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) Has anyone mentioned Tom Araya? Edited February 11, 2022 by SH73 . 1 Quote
Urban Bassman Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Mist of mine have already been mentioned: Wetton, Dewar, Squire, Turner. Greg Lake wasn't too shabby at Bass and Vox either. Quote
SteveXFR Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Peter Steele of Type O Negative used to play a double bass on a strap (chain) while singing. Quote
Nail Soup Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 JJ Burnell sang on a lot of Stranglers songs (1/3 according to his estimate).. was a decent vocalist, although I think Hugh was better. 1 Quote
Sandypjb Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) Don't forget Richard Page of Mr. Mister fame. Superb voice and decent bass player. Recently seen in Ringo Starr's All Star Band. Edited February 11, 2022 by Sandypjb Spelling 2 Quote
