[quote name='Big_Stu' timestamp='1348847172' post='1819106'] This guy's forgotten...... Gordon Rowley of "Strife", probably the most exciting bassist who ever strapped on a Precision. John Reid on the V has mutton chops that make Noddy Holder's look like bum-fluff! Prog your heart out!!!!

I completely understand your comments. However, I have to admit that I do like it as my musical taste is so eclectic, which I'm sure is like that of many bass chat members. Even just this morning I used my four strings to play Mr Wonders ‘Sir Duke’ and quickly followed it with Pantera’s ‘Cowboys from Hell’ As I originally posted it wasn’t going to be to everyone taste. But you have to admire the technical ability. I also posted to the ‘Underrated bass players’ with a comment of “Sometimes isn't it just about locking it in..... Not about how flashy, or how many notes!” And I must wholeheartedly agree with Bert, and not just 'cos he has a great taste in basses..... Is it not diversity and appreciation of all styles which makes us all that bit better.

Thanks Bert! Glad you approved. I'm so relieved that I used my Bongo for the avatar. It would have been so embarassing if I had used my first choice of a J. D. (John Deere tractor..... for the uninitiated)

Sometimes isn't it just about locking it in..... Not about how flashy, or how many notes!

I'm sure the music style is not to everyones taste. Relaxed and effortless [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11V8cP4s51Q"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11V8cP4s51Q[/url]
