A short clip, but you get the idea.  Verdine always dances when he plays!

That's what Ah'm talkin' about!  :mrgreen:

This guy's no bass player, but a lot of things can be forgiven concerning Wilco Johnson. Watch and learn:

This one, with Wilco, and the extremely talented bass player Norman Watt-Roy, like a waiting panther.

And here, with Dr Feelgood, and Sparko on bass. The way Sparko's got his Fender rig is spelled with one C, two O:s, and one L!

This thread should be opened up to dancing keyboardists (from 2:46)...

I'm sorry if I helped steering this project off the road... But one has to agree that the keyboardist could - with just a slight training - become a new Fred Astaire. Or?

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Chris Squire.  The guy moves in one rhythm while playing in another.

No, that's sex...  ;)

I was always taught that Steve Howe always played one song ahead of everybody else, too... ;D

How could this thread ever get this far without mention of Racey?  ??? And a Ric player to boot:






Or FYC?

Never heard of Racey before.

When their first lines rhymed "seventeen" and "teenage queen" I clicked the stop button. It can only go downhill from there.

FYC always reminded more of a constipated epileptic fit than dancing.  But, it was a nice sighting of a G&L L-2000 in action.   :mrgreen:

 :mrgreen:  I knew he looked familiar.

I've heard the Sundazed compilation album, that and a cover of The Last Thing On My Mind were the only good tracks. Jan wasn't with them for long, she left for the Mojo Men.
