Excellent peoplechipper,this is one of my favourite soundcheck basslines.
 

+1000 on love and respect for Nomeansno---angry, awesome bass stuff from those guys---Big Dick is a bass classic.

Just listened to the Lonesome River Band and the Sea of Bees as rec'd above.  Nice additions to the afternoon.  Thanks!

Double post.
 
But my guess is that I'll probably be listening to something else soon.

I've posted links to some Cyril Morin tunes before, and here's another one.  Probably not everyone's cup of tea; but I think this is stunningly beautiful.  
 
The instrumentation is sparse; minimum but very effective percussion, and keyboards that paint a soundscape.  These support a voice and vocal line that are treated with a carefully contoured reverb.  The line itself is well crafted and skillfully sung.
 
I've listened to it before, but just now listened several times in a row.  Stunning.

A new edition of the International Submarine Band. Never gets too old.

Are there any original members in the new ISB?

Who would of thunk.
From Sea Of Bees to Nomeansno in less than 48 hours!
 
I really dig Nomeansno . . .  I like their stuff withOUT the guitar more. (Big Dick).

That video of Rob and John is neat; they're so young! Rob used the same bass for SO long...I saw it soon before he retired it at the shop I used to work at; the pickguard was brass, held on with duct tape as the screw holes were done; filled with dowels that were themselves done repeatedly...the finish on body and neck was falling off in chunks...it looked awesome but it was clearly past the point where you would rely on it on tour; I don't know if he still uses it for recording. Tom Holliston their guitar player lives    8 blocks from me so I can usually tell when they're on tour or not...Tony

Jack Casady playing his new Ribbecke acoustic bass !
 

Grateful Dead 10/17/74 Winterland San Francisco  
 
 I was there__

Fleetwood Mac - The Dance DVD (1997)  
 
Watched the whole thing again... McVie was playing a neck-through Michael Tobias, and a couple Rick Turner basses all night.

Wolf, I think it was the 10/17 show w/ the UJB second set opener.... I used to have that cassette in my car non-stop.  
UJB followed by big RxR, the race is on, etc etc... Nice He's Gone>Caution Jam.... Really good stuff!....

Mike , I am glad you liked it . The ability to rewind back 40 years with these internet recollections is really Kool ! _______  
 
  I was so much older then , I am younger then that now!
