I was just listening to something from my formative years - REO's "You Get What You Play For" live album, released in '77 IIRC. At the time Gregg Philbin was the bassist, prior to the arrival of Bruce Hall and also before Kevin Cronin's er, presence finally robbed them of their rock n roll dignity a couple of albums later. "157 Riverside Avenue" was a cornerstone of their set, and included a bass solo (at 3:16):
Gregg is pictured on the LP with both a reverse Thunderbird and an Alembic (I think). I have also seen video of him with a J-Bass. Question is, which bass is he playing on the cut in question? Something tells me it's the Alembic...
