Can't say for sure, but this here one, at c:a 2:05, looks like a T-bird. Unusual music for that great bass. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=139&v=SbPyKCNDzmI

The Outpost Cafe / RIP John Wetton

The great bass player John Wetton left earth today, 31 of January, according to Wikiedia. In my opinion he was among the greatest of later years bass players.

That bass playing is sure a true hommage to the meaning "keep it simple". So effective in company with the bass drum. A busier player could have destroyed the tune.

That T-bird player ought to be Billy Kinsley, who was the bassist in The Merseybeats, from Liverpool. http://www.carlsguitarcorner.com/links/famousfirebirds1.html

A bit off topic, but this one gotta be there, while mentioning morbid tunes:

We ought to remember this one, as well:

Who could ever forget Frank J Wilson and his boys? On the other hand, if you did, you're forgotten. It's hard to follow someone who's trying to follow someone to "The Other Side". But still, the band included an Eb0, at least for a while. Until it, at some point, vanished. Also, I'm prepared to say....

Though Wilson and his pals didn't only look for what was gone, remember! They looked forward too, which is easy to understand when you look at one of the European copys of Last kiss. http://www.45cat.com/record/45stu42201
Yes, bass, and guitar, is of the Fire- and Thunderbird stock!

Great guy, who put together a fantasic band for Joe Cocker's USA Mad Dogs & Englishmen tour. In one band I'm in we do Alcatraz, the song about the infamous prison. RIP Mr Russell, you held the keys in your hands.

I think that T-bird player is Billy Kinsley who was one of The Merseybeats, John Gustafson replaced him in the band as he left. He late returned to The Merseys who had a hit with Sorrow. Great song, by the way.

And that, in Man, is Terry Williams on drums. Later in Rockpile.
