I was in Jr High School when I first became obsessed with music. This was during the early 80's. I was born and raised in northern California and followed the hard rock/heavy metal scene there--especially Y&T. I still love Y&T. Back then, it was hard rock or nothing. . . until I saw the Rock School episode on funk. I recorded it onto VHS and tried to pick up what that bass player was layin' down.
I read in an earlier post that his first instrument was the cello. This does not surprise me. Can't you picture him playing a cello? The cellist is an assassin on that bass.
