An excellent retrospective about Ray Shulman of Gentle Giant

[musicbassman]

Ray Shulman was the main bass player for Gentle Giant (as well as guitar, violin and other instruments)

You don't have to be a fan of prog rock to appreciate just what a fantastic musician and composer he was.

Here's a worthwhile video where other musicians and composers talk about him and give examples of his incredibly original bass lines.

It breaks my heart that I never got to see him live.
