The Love Affair miming to Everlasting Love. Mick Jackson with a JG 1999RM. The actual bass player on the recording was session player Russ Stableford, who did an excellent job but did not use a Ric. Listening to the track, I'm pretty sure he recorded it with a guitar amp. But even through the tiny iPhone "speakers" at 30% volume, the bass part is still audible! And very effective. But again, sounds like a Fender.
Here's the full story - worth reading if you're not already familiar with it.

Cool, thanks for that. I just missed Glenn recently on his Purple tour.

I posted this on FB, posting here for the Ric content.
Wish I could travel back in time and be her tambourine.

Looks like a Fender Bassman amp with the 2x15 cab. 30 years ago I schlepped a similar rig, a 1969 Bassman, it weighed a ton, the cab didn't fit in the car, and the head clipped at 40% volume. Then it was stolen from the rehearsal studio. I salute the burglar for his fine taste in vintage amps and wish his chiropractor the best of luck. I moved to GK and never looked back.
