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

Me three!

When I was going through my divorce, every time I got another filing from my ex (via my attorney) and read through her 'imaginative' narratives I thought of that line... In the end even her attorney tired of it and dropped her. Things were resolved fairly quickly after that.  

I may have a few tales to tell before too long.

Thats a great one Stu! The kids in the background look impossibly square! Next to Bowie and Ronson.

[Big_Stu]

That's true, though Woody on the drums looks like a bricklayer dressed up in pink.

[Highlander]

The kids are typically TOTP for that era - "tank-tops" and all...

I can't believe I listened to a Tull song all the way through. Gotta admit, that was some good bass tone.

[Stjofön Big]

Well, I gotta admit my patience is not as huge as yours, Dave. Had Thick as a brick in the time, and one or two earlier albums by Tull, but never played them after the first initial rounds! They bore the s--t out of me. Lot of tones, still boring. Though, as you pointed out, nice round bass sound with drive. 

[Pilgrim]

Of course, not a single close-up of the bass player, even though he is going nuts on that number.  I think he had an EB-3 but I can't tell for sure.

I was amused by the fan being removed from the stage just after 4:30.

Ju want ju some bass tone?

Check the Who's "Youg Man Blues" from the same date:

I think the director hated bass players.  At 4:15 you can see the Ox's fingers moving - but there is not only no close-up of the bass player, they didn't even try to get him in any of the shots except the open and closing shot.

[Stjofön Big]

Wow, man! That Daltrey kid sure had a lot of nerve!!! To stand in front of such a rhythm section, as Entwhistle and Moon, and still act accurate, sure takes a lot of balls! And, excuse me for mentioning it once again:Entwhistle!!!!!! That bass playing is waaaaaay over the hill, and still completely adecuate (if that's the word? Otherwise I hope you'll follow my inner intensions)!

Darryl Johnson playing an early EB-0. Great bass line.

Just for kicks I took some footage with my Flip Mino video camera on Friday night, mainly to see if the ambient mic would be able to capture the tone of the Traynor YBA-300. As it turned out, the mic struggled to accurately capture the amp's tone, but I did a quick edit of short sections from about 10 different songs anyway, for something to do

Well there wasn't much to look at was there? The man just stood there like a pillar of salt.
While the other three were very energetic I can understand why the director didn't focus on the bass player.

Entwistle seem to suffer the same fate.
