I'll let you off on that one, Entwhistle was a god among men!

 

[SpineyNorman]

Ahh, I see two sheds has mentioned Jaco, so here's Larry (inventor of slap bass) Graham for yer.

This is my favourite bit of Les

Carol Kaye is the best. By a country mile

 

[pogofish]

apparently, we operate under Admiralty law so we cant give out parking fines because the Royal Navy cant oppress civilians.
Think somebody has a really weird reading of British History
unfortunately my manager said we cant solve are staff shortage by press-ganging people or getting people drunk and slipping them a parking warden shilling

There is something about Railway Byelaws that gets a lot of people out of private parking tickets though - IIRC it all boils down to who can actually bring an action against the parker and how long they have to do so - and it is usually not the jokers who issued the ticket.

Private parking enforcement is much more about revenue generation.
You employ a firm because some people take the piss but then they have to justify there existence so they ticket and when you give staff commission they will ticket enuthastically.
If I can get people to move Job done I'd rather somebody whose parked stupidly move rather than issue and have them leave their vehicle in place because they are throwing a strop.

 

[petee]

John Wetton and Steve Hanley obv.
I'd mention Roy Estrada, but ...

 

[deeyo]

Cheers for posting that, I'm a big primus fan but hadn't come across that one

On a related note, Les Claypool is the best bassist of all time and I'll fight anyone who disagrees.

it's brand new. Serge Forward is clearly itk, part of the avant-garde, has his ear to the ground & his fingers on the basspulse speakers

Primus announce new Conspiranoid EP, share Origins of "Conspiranoia": Exclusive

Primus have announced their new EP Conspiranoid and shared the lead single "Conspiranoia.” Stream the new track and read its Origins.

consequence.net

“I watched the distrust and divide grow between friends, colleagues, relatives, and the general population because of the consumption and digesting of disinformation, misinformation, warped information, and flat-out fairy tales being perpetuated by anyone with a slight hint of web design aptitude.”

Spoiler: ... but claypool doesn't like fighting

Just listen to a random sounds of the 60s or 70s selection, and Carol Kaye will be on a hefty percentage of the tracks.

 

[SpineyNorman]

La bamba

 

[Serge Forward]

I think she played guitar on la bamba, her bass playing started in the 60s.

 

[SpineyNorman]

Probably, I just copied it from the wiki page to make it look like I know what I'm on about lol

 

[Serge Forward]

I think she did a lot of work with the Beach Boys, Phil Spector, the Monkees and countless others. She played bass on literally thousands of 60s and 70s hits.

Thanks for mentioning the Wrecking Crew teqniq. Really interesting and with some surprises.

I'm enjoying this... not so much a derailment but more an interlude

It's a brilliant documentary, not just for Carol Kaye either.

I reckon we can get away with it on a thread like this

Probably won't get into many people's top 10 and he's not a particularly fancy bassist but I reckon Cris Kirkwood of the meat puppets deserves a mention. His brother usually gets all the credit but for me Cris is where their sound came from.

 

[Sasaferrato]

Steve Harris.

Jack Bruce.

 

[Voley]

Peter Hook for me.

On the odd occasion that a warden has advised me to move, I have thanked them and moved. Move and not get a ticket? Common sense. (Which in today's world isn't that common. ).

 

[two sheds]

Peter Hook for me.

Example? Interested to hear.
