A Ripper bassist with some (rich) kid who was later on involved with Glenn Matlock, Bob Geldof, Thin Lizzy, Visage and the guys from Ultravox ... Turned into a decent songwriter too.

A dear friend of mine emigrated to Spain ten years ago. He was the drummer in four bands we played in together.
He's been playing all over the Costa in several bands. Now he has put together a new band with two Spanish musicians to do a Police tribute.
Just like mister Sumner, the bass player takes the lead vocal (although he doesn't speak any English).

His Ripper sounds very articulate in this video they made

What year was that Ripper from?

Have some Acca Dacca

Haven't seen any more pics or videos of Mark with this one, however.

Don't think I've seen these guys in the thread yet.

Anybody know what the bass he's playing here is? A modified Grabber?*
*edit... I see he's made his own bass. New post in the projects section about it.

I may have posted another by The Irish Rovers but here's another with a Triumph bass. It sounds great in this clip!

That video for '74 Jailbreak is what made me lust after a ripper as a young lad.

Here's some kids playing some noisy punk and making an all around mess. If you squint just right there's a Victory in there.

Rick Danko and his lovely sunburst Ripper.

18 seconds of Krist Novoselic with his Ripper in 2013. Besides the Ripper sounding great, I had to chuckle at his performance.

Pretty sure that's the RD

From what I remember from Sound City he was only using a Ripper.

That video clearly show s the headstock with his autograph. So it's got to be the RD Signature bass.

I totally missed that!!!

Nocturnal · February 20, 2016, 12:33:23 PM

Me too!! To be fair I didn't have my glasses on when I watched the clip.

I'm not sure if this one has appeared in this thread yet ....
