iconic Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 (edited) I'm 99% sure this isn't a synth bass, I can hear string noises on some of the slides? Edited August 12, 2010 by iconic Quote
lozbass Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Always liked this (a lot). Not a clue who the bass player is but there's some lovely playing on a lot of CC material - not always flash or clever, but tasteful, sympathetic and effective (these latter characteristics always highly preferable in my opinion) Quote
bassatnight Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 From memory this bass part was played by a session musician, as the band was effectively just the two guys for the first album Difficult Shapes & Passive Rhythms. Certainly wasn't a synth bass part; this was 1982 remember. Quote
risingson Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 I shall ask Eddie next time I see him. Want to know myself now! Quote
BassBus Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Dug out my copy of Flaunt the Imperfection and it details Gary 'Gazza' Johnson as bass player. This track isn't from that album but he was a full member of the band so I would presume it's him on this track too. Correct me if I'm wrong anyone. Doing a short tour at the moment.
