Old Man Riva Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 It’s not normally the sort of thing I’d listen to but from a bass perspective I found this fascinating, and whatever your taste in music it’s well worth a watch. He’s obviously a superb and innovative player, and also seems such a lovely guy! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visog Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 He is a top bloke... many layers which you can research. In bass terms though, he's a walking encyclopaedia and I've enjoyed many a clinic from him... Pretty interesting set of techniques too. I recommend this vid of him playing with Stanley and in a sea of bass solos, Billy distinguishes himself with a manic solo and Stanley's reaction at about 7:50 is hilarious...
