orangepeelneil Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 [size=3] I've always Loved this bassline [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cS7dTuPN1s8&feature=fvw"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cS7dTuPN1s8&feature=fvw[/url] Don't know the full history, is this some kind of reworking - I'm sure Tony Levin didn't play on the original? I may be wrong? Top tune and bassist though........ [/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethox Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Tony Levin did play on Double Fantasy..... to quote Lennon '...and Tony Levin, great bass player... I never even knew he existed!' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonestar Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Tony Levin+Cheap Trick+ Lennon Great stuff! thanks for sharing this with us. I knew that Tony Levin played on Double fantasy but this is quite a revelation to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethox Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 (edited) That quote is taken from the last interview John did. It was with Andy Peebles for the BBC on Dec 6th 1980; it is available to buy and I'd urge everyone to listen to it if they can. Lennon is so full of life, enthusiasm for the future and general good humour it's heartbreaking to listen to.... damn Chapman to the bowels of hell.

RhysP Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Rick Neilson also played on Double Fantasy, along with Tony Levin. Cheap trick sometimes play a version of "I'm losing you" in their live set - there's a great version of it on the "Silver" double live CD.

blue Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Cheap Trick, There our local Midwest heroes. I see those guys all the time. Last time I saw Rick I was standing next to him at a Jeff Beck concert. In a nut shell Rick is just one of those guys that [i]"gets it"[/i]. Weren't their some legal hassles that resulted from their association with material that involved John? Blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
