Great bass player too ... I play bass myself but was always influenced by ...


David J - Bauhaus

Jah Wobble - PIL

Barry Adamson - Magazine

Steve Severin - Siouxsie


If you ever get a chance also check out Glen Matlocks lines on No Lip from Swindle - that's tasty!


Jah Wobble is brilliant!
JJ is the best for me....
Adamson I always liked BUT then Magazine were such a cool band!
Severin....Never liked him til I saw them live. It al made sense then.
Colin Moulding is an amazing bass player too!
Glen? Too funny! Was just watching Rich Kids on YouTube!

Nice ... yeah I've been browsing Youtubes for the lkast 3 hours watching clips of bands I never knew existed - I am addicted! Tonight been watching Tubes of Magazine, Gen X, Syd Barrett and currently looking at SUPER rare footage of 45 Grave who were a big influence on me also.

XTC are an incredible band ... This is POP yeah yeah ... THIS IS! :D

the first cassette i ever got was a gift from my parrents... The cars self titled album.

I think the first record i ever bought was actually Def Lepard Hysteria... I saw all the record stores were getting rid of vinyl, so I started buying it... I also have a bunch of Duran Duran and Depeche Mode 45's I got on clearance at tower records.

I don't even know what the first album i bought with my own money was.

Some early ones were
bonjovi slippery when wet
Duran Duran Arena
Iron Maiden Somewhere in time

but i know there was stuff before that

Never owned any michael jackson though.

The guy on the right of the Air Supply album cover? I grew with his kids in the 70's- we all lived together touring on the road ... Graham Russell - he's like 6'7! Both he and the singer Russel Hitchcock were both in Jesus Christ Superstar with my old man so we were all thick as thieves - Stevie Wright included.
:)

{censored}ing awful music though.
