  1. [quote name='ashevans09' post='11236' date='Jun 3 2007, 12:08 AM']Also the guy who did bass on alot of mamas and papas tracks, in particular "dream a little dream..." for the same reasons. It isn't exceptionally technical or flashy but it really adds to the song.

    My two cents.

    Joe Osborn played bass on pretty much all the Mamas and Papas albums.

  2. Don't know if either of these have been mentioned..
    Randy Meisner and Timothy B Schmit, both of the Eagles. Very tasteful playing while still singing harmonies and lead vocals. In particular, listen to TBS' fretless meanderings on New York Minute from the Hell freezes over vid. superb playing.

    Also, I was watching Sympathy for the devil last night. hadn't realised Keef played the bass on that track letting Bill W do percussiony things. His playing isn't too shabby and I'm wondering what else he took over the bass part for.

  3. If you look around you can still get a pretty good deal on new Alembics. I've just paid beaver felton at bass Central less than half the New price for a balance K signature deluxe in coco bolo. Alembic still building it though so I'll be waiting a bit longer.
    They're a very nice company to deal with too. More like family. One of these days I'll have saved enough to take my brood out to visit. Just have to stop buying basses ;-)
