Be a Bassist


Recommended Posts

First, apologies but I have to post this!!!

Second, I AM a bassist, I played bass for Bo Diddley when he came to Fresno and he smiled and shook my hand after the gig.

It took a chunk of my life to get here and I am still not sure where "here" is.

Wally Malone, who is a member here of the highest regard, was married to Lady Bo (RIP).

"For instance" is not proof.

Thanks for posting that! Here's a blurry photo of me playing bass with Bo Diddley. I don't remember the year but at dinner I think he said something about being 64 years old. MeandBoDiddley.thumb.jpg.3742ffdedee5e30e8ad97971119fd3b5.jpg

LOL,An interesting picture, but I have to say that in a band, the BASS player really doesn't stand out as much as the drummer and guitarist.
But personally, I love cats. Living with cats is a blessing.
Just doing what you love has been great!

The bassist only stands out if they are failing to lock the groove or don't know the song. They carry a burden and a band without a good bassist falls short but nobody bows before the Gods of Low Frequencies. 😇
