Great player (and certainly an influence of mine) but that's a significant output. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on three albums and most people still think of him as the god of metal bass. Jason Newstead could get a mention as well. He's only on 2 records and you can't hear him on one. He's a solid bassist and deserved better 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor J Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 And one with Flotsam and Jetsam, three with Voivod, two with Echobrain, his own Newsted stuff, plus lots of guest appearances with the likes of Sepultura... Jason has been around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassybert Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Tim Drummond. Played on a huge amount of records and toured with 70’s/80’s icons like CSNY, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and more. Was James Brown’s bass player for a while too, that’s no mean feat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does have quite a body of work up his quiet sleeves though... 6 released albums with The Smiths, loads of singles and a couple of albums with Morrissey, he's recorded an album each with The Pretenders, Sinead O'connor, D.A.R.K., Freebass and Ian Brown. He's also still active with his latest project Blitz Vega. Good lad! 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikel Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Glen Cornick, Jethro Tull. Played on the first three Tull albums, but "Replaced" cos he liked to party more than playing. When you consider how many albums and Tours Tull went to do its a comparatively small body of work for one of my all time favorite bassists. He played with a band called Paris but I never caught up with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misdee Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 (edited) Doug Rauch. He is best known for his playing in Santana in the early to mid,1970s. Also played with Carly Simon Betty Davis, Lenny White, Billy Cobham and very briefly with David Bowie. A superb player and highly original bass player who was ahead of his time. He had the whole funky 16th note thing going long before the wider world was aware of Jaco, and he did some double thumping too. Unfortunately Doug became overwhelmed by drug problems and depression by the time he was 26, dropped out of the music business and died at 28 years old in 1979. One of the very best players of that era, for sure. By way of contrast, another one would be Chris Bostock who played with the JoBoxers in the early 1980s and a few other notables during that decade. Always liked his playing but he didn't go on to make very many more recordings. Edited October 23, 2022 by Misdee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
