| | "What's the buzz?" JCSS | ] | I think it needs to be a goal in my life to learn how to play bass like the bass player on the original Jesus Christ Superstar double-album.
One bass player "drove the bus" on funk, half-time and straight-ahead rock, dixieland, 5/4 ballads, orchestra fusion, shuffle, recitatives, and a few other sprinkles of styles here and there. All on a fretless and often with a lot of extra ornamentation and improvisation.
If there was a black-belt in bass, that player has it. |

Oddly enough, I'm listening to Jesus Chirst Superstar as covered by Laibach. Andy Webber done as German death metal. Pure awesome. | |
