Any Sheryl Crow love here?

I've been enjoying listening to her greatest hits and obviously that takes you down a rabbit hole of Wikipedia,YouTube etc.

 

Her bass playing is really interesting in as much as she's very subtle, pumping 8ths she is not, and even with the country influence she doesn't really go for the root and 5th thing either. I like it, it's more of a melodic embellishment that she probably doesn't get the credit for. I didn't realise she enjoyed a Stingray either until seeing a clip of her live.

 

Some great tunes, all sorts of genres and great vocals, keys, guitar and of course bass.

Yes, but I never knew she played bass, so thanks for that.

I read somewhere a good while back that she like to write on bass.

[stingrayPete1977]

I think bass is her main instrument or has been at times at least, I'm not sure what she instrument favours for writing or coming up with ideas for songs on, maybe all of them at different times.

You typed that as I did above, makes sense, almost like she fills in the gaps of the vocal parts with a bass fill.
