Stevie Ray Vaughan is the G.O.A.T. Change my mind (2 Viewers)

You may have just spoken wisdom that has never been uttered by man.

But EVH is still the G.OA.T.

EVH can be the goat, Kurt Cobain is the volcano.

How about Getty Lee and Les Claypool on the same stage?

Claypool and Sean Lennon had a band called Delirium. Getty played with them for a short minute. In the link below they do Tomorrow Never Knows. At one point, about the 9:20 mark, Claypool is doing a solo and Getty fades into the background. Then Claypool just stops and the bass line continues in perfect synch as Getty steps into the spotlight continuing to play Claypool's solo. Cool stuff and great bass work by 2 of the best.

So, when you talk bass I think you have to put Lee and Entwistle into the conversation along with folks like Claypool (my opinion, he's the best) and Levin. But Flea? Fun, good, but not a great, imo.

And if anyone has an interest in the history of the bass instrument, check out Getty Lee's book "Big Beautiful Book of Bass".

And one more before the link:
Lets put Carol Kaye into the conversation. Known primarily for her work in The Wrecking Crew, she was the ultimate professional. You may not know who she is, but you've heard her thousands of times on hit records from the '60s & '70s. A lot of famous bass lines from those records were her invention.

Yep I am not gonna argue with you on the Lee or anybody else you bring up they are great.

Sure I know who Carol Kaye is.

Actually Tony Levin is much more know as a session player than anything else. He played with everyone and just about every kind of music. From the bass on welcome to my nightmare to double fantasy. A Momentary Lapse of Reason he played on and every Peter every Gabriel studio album. He has more than 500 albums he has played on.

Hey so I see you are a base fan so did you catch the deepest end show?

I assume you know what it was. If you are not a govt mule fan it was what they did when Allen Woody their base player died.

Mule got a who's who list of base players to play one track on the album then toured with different ones.

The studio album was the deep end. The deepest end was a live recording at the Sanger.

It was unreal.

Did you guys not read my thread title? You both are dead to me.

You said, it was a trick Sue. I don't know what to believe any more.

I throwing Mike Ness out there, the guy is a legend. Representing Orange County, California.

I'm gonna Sue you too.

Did you guys not read my thread title? You both are dead to me.

I thought about leaving you over this.

But I know how you are.

Yes, we can listen Stevie if you like. But I'll think about Eddie when we make love.

But if you ever mention Sonicboom again, I will lose it!

You said, it was a trick Sue. I don't know what to believe any more.

The trick is that clearly I think Vaughan is the G.O.A.T. so I didn't really WANT my mind to changed.

 

[Madmarsha]

I'm gonna Sue you too.

I have to be honest, if it means I'm never "Marsha, Marsha, Marsha"'d again, I'll answer to "Sue".

It's Geddy, dammit.

Yes. Yes of course. I brain farted several times in one simple post. Dammit (is there an echo in here?). And I am a huge fan of Rush and prog rock in general. Here's my fan card...

 

[Madmarsha]

I thought about leaving you over this.

Yeah, I knew I went a little too far.

See, I'm learning. Kinda.

Wow. No, I don't live in the area anymore so I didn't see it. But I've seen many concerts at the Saenger. Great music venue. Great for plays as well.

That must have been a great show. Now I'll have to find the live album. Didn't know it existed, but I do now.

Thanks!

 

[Madmarsha]

We have now hit bottom.

Oh, we can go lower (just not on this board)

 

[UndeadSnoopy]

Yeah, I knew I went a little too far.

See, I'm learning. Kinda.

You're trying. Kinda.

I guess that's good enough for me.

I'm the luckiest man on the internets.

I just don't like the style of Vaughan, don't shoot, I come in peace. It gives me a headache listening to jazz music. Give me blue collar rock!

Hold please, call for snoopy on line 1.
