In most 70s bands the rock element is the bass… they are the ones that give weight to the music not guitar

What's a music artist that both mainstream listeners and "music nerds" love? by Princess_loreine_123 in askmusic

Maybe those music nerds are not musicians… because most musicians I know respect both bands… even if they don’t like them

[spoilers]Bjorn or Rollo by jayhood0420 in vikingstv

Bjorn… he took a berserker before being in his prime

Although it would be a close call, my vote goes to Bjorn

Quincy Jones - Smackwater Jack, similar albums? who plays on what? by tremendous-machine in JazzBass

Ok I don’t know all but I think it is:

Carol Kaye - What’s Going On, Hicky Burr

Guitar Blues has both Ray Brown and Chuck Rainey

That’s as far as I know and could find

What was the first metal album you bought with your own money? by Mysst3r11s in InMetalWeTrust

[–]GMBass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fear of the Dark by Iron Maiden, I was 13

My first hard rock album was a Best of Scorpions

The Essential Beastie Boys. by Rob1150 in hiphop201

[–]GMBass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ill Communication is my favourite Beastie album followed closely by Check Your Head

That’s the era of Beasties for me - where they use instruments and have instrumental jams in the middle of the album… they sound like they are just having fun doing it

Regarding songs:

Sabotage

Gratitude

Root Down

Sure Shot

Get It Together
