thebeat Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) What a f'ing bassist! An overlooked and under-rated musician...simple, yet sublime bass lines. Skin was a groovy f***er too. Quick edit to say that i of course mean the Hipsway J McElhone, not the later Texas J McElhone who i could take or leave...mind you, would probably be a good wee band if they got rid of Sharleen 'Lena Zavaroni' Spiteri...can not be doing with that yin.

SJA Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 never actually heard Hipsway, but he was pretty good in Altered Images, doing a sort of Hooky-type thing eg. Happy birthday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
