Music videos that feature EB0 to EB4 and SG variant basses...

I too just gave 'begin' a listen on YT. Nice album!

[OldManC]

Mike Fennelly was the lead singer. He's got a Facebook page and has links to videos from his various projects, Crabby Appleton demos etc.

At this point it's not often that I hear someone that sounds like I've been listening to them my whole life, but I love discovering "new" stuff, so thank you, Dave. I've been stuck on that page for a half hour and suspect I'll be listening to more before I'm done.

Iggy Pop (not to be confused with pop star Iggy...)

Is that Tony Sales on bass?

Is that Tony Sales on bass?

Good question. Could be, but I really don't know.

[uwe]

He moves like him. And that might be Hunt Sales on the drums - pre-peroxide blond. Some of his breaks sound like it.

Could be - according to Wiki:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lust_for_Life_%28album%29

Modern day Whitesnake, a Deep Purple Mk 4 classic, Glenn Hughes

 and an EB-0L (or 3L) slothead,

what a combo!

[Highlander]

I wondered if you'd double post this one...

Looks 3L to me...

The Band Perry again, this time with an EB-2 - one of the siblings has a good taste in basses. (Oh my, that Nashville trip has sure left its mark, recently I find myself listening to Darius Rucker, The Band Perry and The Zac Brown Band!)

Iggy Pop (not to be confused with pop star Iggy...)

This, Uwe, is good solo Iggy.  It was the song that first turned me on to him (came out at about the time I started paying attention).

As much as I hate to say it, Steve Jones playing guitar on something is often an indicator that it wasn't a very good
 (e.g. The Janie Jones record he was on, though I do enjoy that ironic Sex Machine cover because it seems to bother everyone I knowso dang much)

[uwe]

I find that Iggy of all eras has something to offer (and enough shoddy stuff too). But I admit liking his Don Was produced phase most. That and American Cesar.

...

And Darius Rucker isn't country either.

[uwe]

Uhm, why the hell not? This here sounds more country to me than funk, heavy metal, rap or prog.



He doesn't qualify because he comes from an indie rock background?



Yet the Zac Brown Band, which is incredibly diverse (I mean that as a compliment) on its last (excellent) album, is somehow more country?  Or not country either?

If your signature song has "rock me baby" in the chorus, you're not country. Period.

It has nothing to do with his indie rock background. Artists cross genre lines all the time.
