kwmlondon Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I've long loved this version of Too Much Of Nothing by Peter, Paul and Mary but only now listened to it properly. Oh my word - the bass playing is out of this world Stellar performance by Rick Danko of The Band. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beedster Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I don't even have to hear Danko playing, simply watching him play the bass makes me feel better, so much joy and so much talent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Horse Murphy Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Big Rick fan too. The first time I saw him was in my Dad's video of The Last Waltz when I was 12 or so. Ineffably cool, good looking and just a brilliant bass player: I was smitten with bass at that point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s on the Band / Dylan one, but not the Peter, Paul and Mary one in the OP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my god, yes - it coudl be Richard Kniss though. Looks he played all their session work though he was on upright but looks like him from what I can find.
