Yup, love that one

I also can't get Ressurection Joe by The Cult out of my head.

Enjoyed learning Far Cry by Rush and I'm currently working on Two Hearts Beat As One by U2

Everybody here has mentioned some great players/lines jamerson, marcus, willie weeks, entwhistle, flea etc etc but there is one guy for me who is conspicuous by his absence. Jimmy Johnson on anything by James Taylor, any of the sessions he has done with huge artists, his own thing, flim and the bbs not to mention the groundbreaking material with alan holdsworth.
guys, check this man out he is the epitome of taste, time, placement, and choice
Jake
PS
The line that really blows me away that he is on is 'The frozen man' on the James Taylor Pull over tour dvd, The reason? because he plays so little, so well

If I ever get the chance to sit down with a bass set up in the right tuning I might try and figure it out but otherwise all my attention is on figuring out Martinie's lines and Dirk's as well.
