Them Crooked Vultures...JPJ looks like he's having a blast (who wouldn't?)

oh yeah...although I listen to it constantly, I can never get enough of Guy Pratt's bass playing during Pink Floyd's Pulse tour.

I need to check out Them Crooked Vultures more.

After seeing STP in Chicago on cable a week or so, Robert DeLeo has been on my mind.  It doesn't hurt that my new band is doing a couple STP songs.

I've been listening to Them Crooked Vultures a lot lately. Saw them on Austin City Limits and went out to buy the disk the next day. Not everyone's cup of tea I'm sure, but strikes a nerve with me.

The bass playing I've heard lately that makes me want to play better is my own. 


Listening to recordings from recent rehearsals.. ugh, I need to play better.

I've been through this video about 20 times working on the bass line and I still don't have it all.  Tommy Shannon is simply a great bass player.  Not only is he rock solid, but this line moves quickly.

This morning at the station I'm playing Argent's "Lothlorien". The bass player is really impressive! Now I need to go look and see who he is...

Jim Rodford...

Argent without Rod went by the name of Phoenix - saw them a few times - iirc he had a P and a Strat that could be linked as a double neck by removing a couple of pieces - known as the Jigsaw...
