We've been wondering when that was going to be live! Thanks for posting.

Hmm. The article states: its basses used by the Who's John Entwistle, jazz virtuoso Stanley Clarke and Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones on Stairway to Heaven.
 
That's impossible. Stairway to Heaven was released in 1971. No doubt courtesy of Rolling Stone journalistic wire-crossing...
 
Cool article all the same. A bit melancholy, but cool.
 
And -- Count me in the small, ravenous cult following !

I just saw the article this morning.
I do not like the fear based negative title of the piece but I guess it does draw you in to read it.
BTW I've always wanted to be a part of a small, ravenous cult
Maybe this cult that he writes about has the the same sonic ambitions as Alembic.
Not as high priced as the writer would have you believe though. I have two Alembics and I am definitely not a rich man.
It was good to get an insight into the contents of Rons' fanny pack. I've always wondered what was in there.
 
The number of this post is scary! Glad to get that one out of the way.

At least if Alembic closes up shop tomorrow we will know on whom to place the blame.

Ironic, a friend of mine just posted this on a different website.

Which we all know about . . .  so it was the perfect opportunity to tell him that I was apart of a small, ravenous cult following and post the link to the RS article.

Good point Slawie, that is the current vibe over at TalkBass message board, negative or to bad.  
  I must be just a Cult guy.

Phew, good job. If Alembic had closed down, then it's pretty scary to realise that for 10 years plus I've been communicating with the Dead.

The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!
